Sarah Palin Slams Obama, Fails To Remember She’s A Quitter

“The president would like us to believe that he only learned about the IRS corruption from watching the news. But we recently learned that the White House was actively working with the IRS on how to roll out the story of this scandal,” Palin ranted. “So, Mr. President, how can you have your staff work on the roll out of the biggest controversy since Watergate, and yet claim that you only heard about it by watching the news with the rest of us?”

Palin’s finger-pointing didn’t stop there. She also criticized the White House’s involvement in the IRS scandal, which purportedly targeted tea party groups, calling the scandal “the biggest controversy since Watergate.”

It wasn’t long ago that Palin had a botched term as Alaskan Governor and a failed attempt as vice president alongside former president-elect John McCain in the election of 2008. Palin crumpled under pressure and voluntarily resigned halfway through her term as governor, and her finger-pointing is a outright display of hypocrisy as Obama seems to be holding everything together, even through the tough IRS scandal.
