It's like having Mr. Bean for president, only Mr. Bean was never malicious.

(CNN)-Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin took to her Facebook page Monday to warn Americans about President Barack Obama’s plan to improve the nation’s economy.
“Be wary of the efforts President Obama makes to ‘fix’ the debt problem,” she said. “The more he tries to ‘fix’ things, the worse they get.”
A “surprised” Palin sounded off on reaction to the nation’s credit rating downgrade and chided “so-called smart people” who doubted her forecast of economic repercussions.
“I’m surprised that so many people seem surprised by S&P’s decision,” Palin wrote.
“Weren’t people paying attention over the last year or so when we were getting warning after warning from various credit rating agencies…I’ve been writing and speaking about it myself for quite some time.”
Referencing “European nations with less debt and smaller deficits than ours” that have had their ratings downgraded, the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee accused the president of “magical thinking” and took a swipe at his alma mater, saying, “One doesn’t need a Harvard Law degree to figure this out!”
And Palin fired back at those who point the finger at the tea party movement for the country’s credit downgrade.
“How shamelessly cynical and dishonest must one be to blame this inevitable downgrade on the very people who have been shouting all along ‘stop spending?’” she vented.
“Tea Party Americans weren’t the ones ‘fiddling’ while our country’s fiscal house was going up in smoke.”

“I embrace a pro-growth agenda,” she stated. “We need to tell the world ‘America is open for business again.’”
Woo hoo!! That's my baby!!
Go, Sarah, GO!!
“Tea Party Americans weren’t the ones ‘fiddling’ golfing while our country’s fiscal house was going up in smoke.”
Go Sarah Go!
Sarah, Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear, or a fool from any direction.
obama says we don’t need anyone to tell us we need to cut spending. Obviously, he did.
This is progress when the MSM “chooses” to not ignore us!
They’ll always hate us, but when they don’t ignore us, their soft, underbelly of their dragon shows and the country gets to choose. Knowing that 29% of the country blames the Tea Party and this info about Facebook gets published gives me hope! Yep, 29% of the country deserves to be in Siberia or Cuba.
Check the text. Check the dates. She did tell us so. BTT.
The Tea Party notes the stench of bankruptcy stemming from our spending and the liberals claim that the noting of it is what is causing the bankruptcy.
This sort of logic is well known to fourth grade boys who employ it in the "he who smelt it deal it" ruling.
I just can’t say enough about what a great American Warrior Sarah is. Steel spine.
I hope Mitt does not get the nomination. It almosts seems fixed similar to getting Juan McAmnesty in there.
“I hope Mitt does not get the nomination.”
Don’t worry, it WON’T happen. We all NEED to make it NOT HAPPEN.
Palin ‘12!!!
I see Mitty’s only shot is crossover votes from Dems in open primary states.
They know that will guarantee a Tea Party challenger and offer a path to a Clintonian plurality win for Baraq.
Great Palin quote!
She consistantly nail it every time there is something important happening, and then takes it one step further.
She’s some Number 1 Presidential material that gal is!
It’ll be fatastic to see her turn Obama’s sign around that says, “Closed for Vacation and Golf and Ice Cream” to the side that says “Open for Business!”

(((((PING)))))
Sarah's FB post was re-posted here several times last night. The real news here is that CNN and the rest of the MSM are covering it this morning.
When the spotlight is on her, her words will be heard. If she enters the race that means she believes she can do it and I don't doubt her.
