Heated: Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer confronts President Obama over book on immigration

In Malaysia nobody dare to point finger at our Prime Minister, not even his wife will do such a thing. I believe that a noble thing we preserve in our Asian conservative society.

Low educated, uncouth hillbilly.

she gave obummer the wroing finger

Great, except since this happened dozens of other photographs have been produced of people pointing fingers at presidents. The only good thing that came out of this was Jan Brewer's book sales went way up on the internet.

If you have a business and employ illegal aliens - $100,000 dollar fine for each one. Either stop them at our 1000s of mile long border or dry up the reason for them being here.

America needs economic regeneration after having our capital heisted into emerging markets like Mexico, Brazil, India China and scattered all around. By right the capital taken from QE 1 and 2 and more by the speculators from our treasury should be used to invest in jobs here at home, These guys with Swiss bank accounts who have jerry rigged our currency are laughing at us even as they are destroying us. Even if you hate what they do the bottom line is too big a government administering too few entrepeneurs will wipe us off the map and that's why for the sake of average Americans this country should be voted towards economic reinvestment and not endless leeching on their part.

Gee, the headline contridicts the article which says Mr. Obama confronted Ms Brewer about the book because he was offended. I guess they wanted the headline to fit the picture. Ms Brewer can laugh her way to the bank as I bet this causes the sales of her book to skyrocket.

PULL MY FINGER.

Amazing how stupid Republicans are -- such haters, racists, mean and nasty, un-American, un-Christian. . . They're like Nazis.

What has happened to the USA!? Disrespect for the President, disrespect for the Geneva Convention, disrespect for the Constitution, religion gone radical and hate filled as those they accuse, confinement without trial, torture, racism....stop me when shame kicks in!?

yo quero taco bell.

I am not from Arizona and have no political ties with Gov. Brewer. At the same time, saying this was a "heated" exchange makes me laugh!! Based on what I have seen on the news at several different times, this article is highly exaggerated. It had absolutely nothing to do with disrepecting the President. She was making a point, but it was not a "heated" exchange and certainly not disrespectful. Actually, it was more respectful for her to say what she had to say face to face; she could have called a news conferrence or issued a political statement to the press and bad-mouthed him behind his back.

John McCain Has the nerve to call anyone else a prickly personality?

John McCain needs to retire.

If all you bone heads would direct your anger and hatred towards the cause of illegal immigration we wouldn't have it. All these companies that hire them, the farmers that hire them, how many of them have been prosecuted? Zero, that's where the problem lies, so guess what, if the farmers, companies stop hiring, because they've been prosecuted, then the politicians won't get support from farmers, and big companies. So rather than direct your anger and hatred towards the President, get a clue. Big business runs this country, that's why Bush gave all those tax credits to the rich.

Support the state of AZ.... NOT sue them!

This so overblown...watch the video...there was nothing terribly "heated" in this exchange. It appears that way in the still photo, but that is a freeze frame of 1/60th of a second...in real time, it doesn't appear that anyone's feathers were even ruffled here.

She was out of place in speaking about anything except a welcome, on the tarmac. Some cultures do talk with their hands, but this is not acceptable with a President. He was not disrespectful to cut her off and keep walking. He did the only thing possible in that moment. He should not go near the border, it is way too dangerous, and too many have made improper remarks about his family being left without him.

I found the Governor of Arizona to be disrespectful to the President. But then today, people don't respect each other. Hopefully she had the decency to apologize to the President (if she is mindful at all).

This article is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. She did not confront the president. He brought it up to her first, and when she gave it back, he walked away.
