What she actually said:
When I tell her that Sarah Palin will be headlining one of the Reagan birthday celebrations, as keynote speaker of a lavish dinner at the former family ranch, Davis exclaims. "Are you kidding me?" She adds, "As far as Sarah Palin is concerned, I think he would be completely baffled at her fondness for shooting animals."

And on obama:
Her views of President Obama, for whom she voted enthusiastically and who in recent weeks has been compared to the Great Communicator, have evolved over time. "I've been disappointed with him, and I think many people have," she says. "I think maybe we fell in love too fast."
She was especially disturbed after Obama initially seemed disengaged during last summer's BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. "I thought, this is a disaster! Where are you? And who in the world is letting you out on the **** golf course?" Davis says. "While the entire Gulf Coast is drowning in oil? Birds, dolphins are dying? Get off the golf course! This is ridiculous! I hope that he's come back to the realization that we as a nation need a president who can shoulder our grief and be a parent to us when we need one."
