Palin: Obama Was ‘Arrogant’ to Criticize McCain (Palin praises "American war hero" McCain)
The Washington Independent ^ | 2010-02-26 | David Weigel

Posted on 02/26/2010 3:37:10 PM PST by rabscuttle385

In an interview with Sean Hannity on his ABC News radio show, Sarah Palin chastised President Obama for telling Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), during the health care summit, “the campaign is over.”

“Todd and I both saw that,” said Palin, “and we both said, you know, how arrogant for our president to say that.” She called McCain “an American war hero who has sacrificed so much,” arguing that for him “to be dissed like that on national television did not speak well for our president’s character.”

It was about as soft an interview as these exchanges can be. “I like it when you say common-sense conservatism,” said Hannity. “That, to me, means Reagan conservatism.”

I agree with Palin. It was totally rude and disrespectful. And hypocritical, seeing as how Obama has campaigned continuously since he was elected.

I understand but Obama has no respect for Juan McCain because Juan is a little back stabbing phony. Palin needs to get hip to the fact that McCain is a Benedict Arnold to conservative Republicans.

If I am a Republican and I have some Dem suck up who undermines his own party - would I respect him? McCain is a little back stabber. I get his military service record but he hides behind that like Obama gets a free pass on his race.

Murtha was a Nam Marine but he was still a POS.

Only toady and idiots respect McCain anymore. Sadly - Palin, Pawlenty, Thompson, Newt, Romney want to be stinking open-border pro-illegal alien lackeys with Juan McCain then they are traitors too.

Actually, I think McCain laughing at him may have cut a little deeper than an angry McCain response. The queen can’t handle being laughed at.

What's the point of posting this article? What's the point of putting "American war hero" in quotes?

You don't think Obama was arrogant to criticize McCain in this fashion? Are you siding with Obama here?

That's four questions. I'm eagerly awaiting your reply (rolling eyes).

Because it's a direct quote from Palin.

Then he should have laughed at Obama instead of himself.

Do you agree with Palin? Is McCain an American war hero?

Is Obama arrogant for criticizing McCain? (You've now been asked twice.)

Juan knows his role: Make Soetoro look good. He’s the LIBERAL card up the sleeve.

Obama made a snide comment and did not answer any of the points McCain made. Truly boorish juvenile behavior on Obama’s part. He's a Hopey Changey A Hole and he is an embarrassment to the Office he holds.

McCain is in his 70’s and I'll bet he could still kick Obama’s ass. Obama is a loud mouthed punk, nothing more.

0bama showed what an arrogant turd he is but McCain should have had a better comeback than to giggle when he was told the campaign is over. I’ll bet 0bama’s put down resonated in “the community”

Has Sarah Palin actually campaigned for McCain yet? I must have missed that.
