Palin: 'We Need to Find Out Who Was Behind' Egypt Protests (VIDEO)
Sarah Palin was interviewed by a conservative media outlet, David Brody of Christian Broadcasting Network, over the weekend, and talked about President Obama's handling of the political crisis in Egypt. And while it's clear that she herself doesn't have all the answers, she's also quite miffed at Obama, saying that he doesn't have the answers -- and he's not telling us the answers he knows, either.

"Mubarak, he's gone, one way or the other. He is not going to be the leader of Egypt. That's a given," Palin said. "So now the information needs to be gathered and understood as to who it will be that fills now the void in the government. Is it going to be the Muslim Brotherhood? We should not stand for that, or with that or by that. Any radical Islamists, no that is not who we should be supporting and standing by. So we need to find out who was behind all of the turmoil and the revolt and the protests so that good decisions can be made in terms of who we will stand by and support."

But she also criticized Obama: "It's a difficult situation. This is that 3 a.m. White House phone call and it seems for many of us trying to get that information from our leader in the White House, it seems that that call went right to the answering machine. And nobody yet has explained to the American public what they know, and surely they know more than the rest of us know, who it is who will be taking the place of Mubarak."

6. So Obama is supposed to let her know what diplomatic steps are being taken
Think she's a bit full of herself?

I can think of 300 million other Americans he should tell first.

9. She makes herself more irrelevant with every interview
It seems she can only respond to complex questions with old campaign sound bites. "This is that 3 a.m. White House phone call".

11. She has no standing to talk about anything pertaining to foreign policy
Edited on Mon Feb-07-11 08:07 PM by bluestateguy
She is not qualified to do so, and she is dumber than a post.

14. Oh they are all beside themselves because
They can't figure out what "side" they want to take on this issue until they know what will be Obama's stand on it. They are just all out pissed at him because he won't give them a "side" to be against since that is how they determine who they are. They need to be against whatever Obama is for...and they just don't know what that is. So frustrating it is for them...just unbearably frustrating. Poor things!

15. I marvel that this woman is able to breathe without a respirator
Oh I know we shouldn't "make fun of people on respirators or who have relatives who needed respirators". But seriously how can there be enough a working nervous system in that wig maker's mannequin to accomplish breathing and basic locomotion? She's as dumb as moss.

20. Jesus, Mary and Joseph; she is dumb as a stump. And that is probably unfair to stumps.
She seems to be saying that Obama should be telegraphing his intelligence briefings about the situation in Egypt to the world. Even assuming that she is correct about Obama having good intelligence on this, which is not a given; Why would a President do that?
