Like many conservative pundits, Sarah Palin is criticizing President Obama for his administration’s inconsistent statements on the Benghazi, Libya, attack. Unlike many conservative pundits, Palin used the term “shuck and jive” to describe Obama’s behavior.

In a Facebook post today, Palin wrote: “Obama’s Shuck and Jive Ends With Benghazi Lies.” She also used the term in the text of the post, which concludes, “President Obama’s shuck and jive shtick with these Benghazi lies must end.”

I don't think Sarah Palin qualifies as a pundit. That's someone perceived as having a certain expertise and authority, she's just someone with unthinking partisan opinions.


So is Walter, but I'm adding this here so he can't give me another red one for it.

I recall Sarahahaha being very indignant when anyone used the R word.

Wonder what she thinks of Mann Coulter doing the same.......?

The following is a guest post in the form of an open letter from Special Olympics athlete and global messenger John Franklin Stephens to Ann Coulter after this tweet during last night’s Presidential debate.


Finally, I wondered if you meant to degrade him as someone who is likely to receive bad health care, live in low grade housing with very little income and still manages to see life as a wonderful gift.

Nope, not racist at all.

"To shuck and jive" originally referred to the intentionally misleading words and actions that African-Americans would employ in order to deceive racist Euro-Americans in power, both during the period of slavery and afterwards. The expression was documented as being in wide usage in the 1920s, but may have originated much earlier."

Did Palin admit it was the Republican Congressional leaders who took the funding out of embassy security which enabled the attacks? Or, do we again have the following take place ....



BLAME OBAMA!
BLAME OBAMA!
BLAME OBAMA!

All these Romnesians wanted her as Vice President. Scary thought.

Today the left is predictably freaking out and accusing Sarah Palin of racism for using the phrase “shuck and jive.” For those unfamiliar with the phrase it means to avoid the truth by dancing around an issue.

When in doubt and there is no reasonable argument remaining; applying the 'racist' tag works in a jiff.

Corn farmers of the world unite!

Such heinous treatment can only be remedied with large cash payments to make the boo-boo go away

Obama should have made a deal with the Republicans that he would beef up security in Libya in exchange for NOT using taxpayer funded jets to go on the campaign trail and maybe leveled-off the number of golf games to 50 or so, instead of the 100+ he played on the public's nickle.

It'd be a wash transaction.

It may not be "politically correct" but it was a VERY accurate description of what the President and his flunkies are doing.

But, now CBS and ABC are also beating the bandwagon about Libya, and that bodes very ill for President Obama. Finally, at least some of the mainstream media is taking notice that this man simply can tell the difference between lies and fairy tales.

At the present time under the current circumstances the government would have to be
utterly mad to tell what they know, either to the Republicans or the nation as a whole.
What is more significant is the opposition knows that, and if they don't it would clearly
demonstrate they do not have the knowledge to be in the oval office.
When something like this is going on it is kept confidential in order to gather information
and determine who is ultimately responsible. Who appears to be responsible is not the
same as who is responsible This is secret service stuff and Palin should know it
Of course having Palin come forward and be in the spotlight is like the kiss of death for
Romney
