Reporting from Las Vegas— President Obama is spending the day in Las Vegas and Colorado trying to sell his vision for America's energy future, but he's going to have to work to overshadow the buzz around his personal clash with the Arizona governor the day before.

On Thursday, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) came to the defense of Gov. Jan. Brewer in a conversation with Fox Business Network, where he suggested that President Obama can be a little abrasive.

"Apparently Bobby Jindal, the governor of Louisiana, had a similar exchange with the president," McCain said Thursday morning. "It is very well-known he has a prickly personality and I think it has been displayed in both of those cases."

That's right, Governor Brewer, you gave us an image to cherish. Hussein is out of line as an individual and WAY out of his depth as POTUS.

BHO must go.

Why add an unnecessary “ly” on the description of the Creetin-in-Chief?

Did he really say that 0bama was a little prick? That’s not very respectful.

The elephant in the room that the finger in the face distracts from is where the hell were all the elected Democrats from Arizona to greet the President? Why was a GOP Governor the only Arizona dignitary there to greet the President?

My Dad had a saying about people he disliked:
“God ruined a good pri*k when he put ears on that guy.”

Thats right, Juan. He's prickly.

He's also a lying US hating marxist who is seeking to destroy the America of our founding fathers, too.

But I guess noticing a basic personality quirk is a good start.

Prickly?

Zero is a thin skinned, arrogant, ignorant, whiny little bitch.

Careful, John. You wouldn't want anyone to accuse you of racism. Quick, take it back before anyone realizes you're irrelevant.

What do you bet than McCain was fully aware of his choice of “adjective?” Haha.

This is off the topic of this thread but whoever is doing the graphics in the threads for the “DONATE” postings is doing a very good job. Many of them are context sensitive for the thread itself and are very funny or they are right on the money politically or by their commentary make a great point.

Kudos to whoever is handling that on FR.....

Oh, how terrible, he called obama prickly? How obscene. McCain has called conservatives worse names. He’s tryiing to jump on Brewer bandwagon. McCain needs to get off, she has been doing all the hard work, he’s just in it for the ride.

I’m shocked . . . that McCain would actually side with a Republican over Obozo.

Making the media rounds after tangling with Obama over her criticisms of him in her recent book on immigration, Brewer described the president as wound-up from the moment she greeted him on the tarmac.

“He brought up my book and he was a little tense,” Brewer said in an interview with KFYI radio. “He said he read the excerpt and didn’t think I was very cordial. I said we’d have to agree to disagree. He was a little thin-skinned and tense, to say the least.”

He walked away when she was mid-sentence talking to him.....
