Sarah Palin: Obama Must Grow a 'Big Stick'

She blasts his foreign policy, in eyebrow-raising language

(Newser) – Mitt Romney may be drawing lots of attention for his criticism of the White House in the wake of the violence in Libya and Egypt, but Sarah Palin is gaining. In a Facebook post, she argues that America is now seeing the results of his weak foreign policy, especially in regard to the Arab Spring. But this line in particular, channeling Teddy Roosevelt, is the one getting widely quoted:

  • "We already know that President Obama likes to 'speak softly' to our enemies. If he doesn’t have a 'big stick' to carry, maybe it’s time for him to grow one."
The Hill has more.

Sarah Palin is not a fan of President Obama's foreign policy.

Ok so Sarah doesn't choke on the big issues... but Romney growing a pair would not help him... instead take advise from Betty White....he needs to grow a vagina... those things take a real pounding

This topic has certainly got the attention of you ladies and a whole lot of my posts deleted.  Surely yankeelady isn't the only one whining about a little colorful language by a Republican vs. a democrap!
