wasn't as good as the photo that is floating around on the internet.
In the video President Obama walked down the steps of the plane and then a limo is in front of them so you only see the top half of Obama and Brewer - and there was 'no sound'.

The photo is better because it is more close up and clear.

4. Are governors vetted for mental illness?

Not trying to offend anyone, I deal with it up close and personal in my life.
This woman does not appear sane.
Seriously.
I deal with mental illness on a daily basis.
So I am not being flippant about my observation.
I am totally serious- does anyone know if she has a record of mental illness?

I would not wish it on anyone- including her.
Interesting that she made such a huge cut to services when her son
has been hospitalized for so long.

Reading the article about her family, I feel empathy for her as a mother-
but it would probably best for all if she focused on her son and stepped down
from her appointment as the governor.

A family tragedy, for sure.
While I do not condone her actions as a governor- I feel
deep empathy for her as a mother.
Mental illness destroys everyone close to it most of the time.
No wonder she presents the way she does.
