JUNEAU, Alaska — Sarah Palin’s criticizing President Barack Obama for appearing on “The View.”
The 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee tweeted Obama has “no time” to visit the U.S.-Mexico border yet can chat on the ABC daytime talk show.
She says she plans to visit to what she calls the porous border “in the near future.” She wasn’t specific.
A White House spokesman didn’t immediately offer comment.
The administration has taken steps to address the border security issue, including Obama’s decision that will send 1,200 National Guard troops to the region this weekend.
Palin has taken shots at Obama before, including over his handling of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and what she called his lack of executive experience before assuming the presidency.
Palin resigned midway through her first term as Alaska governor last year.
She might have more substance to this particular gripe if she was actually at the border when she was interviewed.
The journalist must have played hardball and asked her when she was making a trip there herself, given the classic "Palin answer" she gives:
"She says she plans to visit to what she calls the porous border “in the near future.” She wasn’t specific."
All you folks to dog Palin should spend less time posting on bait AP news stories, and get another job to cover the amount of money inflation has stolen from your retirement account. Currently it is about 50% in the last 3 years.
AS, for you government employees (including freeloaders looking have free medical care equal to congress) who are making 1.5 million per year and expect to retire with a 650,000 dollar pension for the rest of your life are in for a rude for several very rude and crude surprise: there is NO money in your account! Your account is funded or a year to year appropriation or it in only partly funded based on the assumption the economy will expand for ever at 3% compounded.
Which makes you exactly like the people on Social Security.
Social Security was a trust fund and congress stole ALL the money every single cent. Now they must fund SS from the General Fund.
But don't cry to much: the feds bailed out Government Motor's UAW retirement fund with borrowed cash.

Note the last paragraph sniper attack on Sarah.
FACT: She could not afford endless legal expenses caused by fake ethics complaints from the whacko Obama bot.
FACT: Since she left, she has done very well selling books! And is running neck and neck with Obama.
She has done far, far, far better then any AP scum reporter.

Listened to Rush re the Volt car and GM.
He has his cause and effect mixed up.
GM went under because the price of oil went $149 per barrel and people stopped buying cars. Collateral damage from the saving the planet from C02 by running the price of fuel up.
GM was selling cars at 0 down to people who could not pay back the loans, just like the housing industry. GM's loan arm GMAC went bankrupt and was saved by the feds.
There is a limited pool of people who are credit worthy and now.
The economy remains depressed and with hyper inflation because the price of oil went from $20 per barrel to $80.
As for the Volt, it takes 35 Kwh to equal the energy of a gallon of gas. At 10 cents per Kwh the gasoline equivalent is $3.50. Here in Alaska, it is $7.00 at 22 cents per Kwh.
The media is defrauding the public by failing to report the Electric Car's Kwh per mileage.
Which is probably 1 Kwh with power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, lights on, wipers on, on a flat surface with no head wind and when the moon is full.
You will notice the AP news stories on the Volt and OTHER electric cars always leave out the miles per Kwh!
It is deliberately done!

I don't think we've ever had such an unserious president.
"Going Rogue" was written by Lynn Vincent. When she actually writes a book, I may consider reading it.
This is hilarious!!!
Tea Party's choice for President..too funny!!
Palin is nothing more than repub eye candy.
Her looks have gotten her this far, not her brains.
(After all, it took her 7 years to get a 2 year college "degree".)

As far as Obama goes, maybe the extreme rightists would be happier if he went to his ranch and cut mesquite every time a crisis came along. It worked for Bush, didn't it?
Do you mean the stay-at-home moms, night shift workers, elderly, disabled, and kids off school? And all the workers who TIVO this show?
