Few of us really know one way or the other about Obama's work ethic. What we do know is that Sarah Palin cut and ran because her job became too difficult. People who can't manage to stay for a full four year term really have no business questioning how anyone else works. CNN:
Sarah Palin, in her first comments on the uprising in Egypt, called the situation President Barack Obama's 3 a.m. phone call and said, "It seems the call went right to the answering machine."What's interesting is that Dick Cheney sounds like he is at the complete opposite end of what Palin is saying. He may have come to the wrong conclusion on most political issues, but he's right that it's not possible to negotiate through an exit in public.
Palin, the former GOP vice presidential candidate, spoke with Christian Broadcasting Network's David Brody after her speech Friday night at the Reagan Ranch in Santa Barbara, California.
In the interview, the potential Republican presidential candidate said, "We need to know what it is America stands for so we know who it is that America will stand with. And we do not have all that information (from the administration) yet."
Cheney said the U.S. should take measured steps in public, and suggested that too much pressure could backfire.
"There is a reason why a lot of diplomacy is conducted in secret. There are good reasons for there to be confidentiality in some of those communications. And I think President Mubarak needs to be treated as he deserved over the years, because he has been a good friend," Cheney said at an event commemorating the centennial of President Ronald Reagan's birth.
