Brewer: ‘I would not disrespect the president’



Brewer: ‘I would not disrespect the president’

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/02/26/brewer-i-would-not-disrespect-the-president/

Despite her infamous finer wagging incident earlier this month, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer (R) said Sunday morning that she would never disrespect President Barack Obama.

In an appearance on Meet The Press with California Governor Jerry Brown (D), Brewer was asked by host David Gregory if it was inappropriate for her to decline a dinner invitation from Obama for the upcoming National Governors’ Conference.

“I hope that it isn’t disrespect,” she said. “I would not disrespect the president of the United States. I have other commitments, and I’m going to be at the White House on Monday morning. I saw this event was a social thing. And I’m going to be at the White House Monday when we all meet and discuss policy.”

She's too wet to step on and too low to kick.

She did. She's worthless because of her disrespect when she was just a piece of shit PRIOR to that for her treatment of brown people in her state.


She sucks. And I wish President Obama would stop giving her the time of day.

She was paid for the by the State of Arizona to attend the Governors Conference, not have dinner with someone else.

Did she take state money under false pretenses?
