Getting to Know Sarah Heath Palin

By Sunday August 31, 2008

Didn’t the GOP blast Kerry for choosing Edwards as running mate because he didn’t have enough experience to be VP? How soon they forget.

    Let’s see… governors in recent history that became president of the U.S. … Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter…. you could argue about whether a governor has foreign policy experience, but there’s certainly a strong, recent precedent for this. At least she’s run something, as opposed to Obama who has been a ward heeler in the corrupt cesspool of Chicago politics for 20 years. Oh, I’m sorry… I meant ‘Community Organizer’ of course, kind of like the fact that secretaries are now called ‘administrative assistants’ and janitors are now ‘engineers’. A ward heelers job in Chicago, if you’ve never been there is to strong-arm voters and hand out political favors and money. In return for that 20 year service, you get bumped up to be an Illinois senator. Any questions?
    If you look at the frantic blogging on the liberal left about this (see Huffington Post), you can see that the lefties are terrified that there is a vp candidate out there that mainstream americans will identify with and like – a lot. Joe Biden is Nobama’s corpse tribute to the political machine, once again. He’s just slightly more likeable than Muskie.

    Another attempted attack, and another failure. The left has lost its touch.

    As soon as someone can point out something the Great Black Hope or his mentor have run that’s larger than Alaska you’ll have an argument. Until then, you’re fucked.

    Don’t forget the computer programmers. They’re now called ‘engineers’ as well.

    Uh, he was a “ward heeler” (actually working for a church-based community organization) for THREE years. Not twenty. Twenty years ago he was just entering Harvard Law School, from which he graduated magna cum laude in 1991.

    If you want to Swift-Boat the guy, at least get your facts straight.

    If the Republicans REALLY cared about experience, they never would have chosen a VP with no experience.

    I was alive during the JFK era, and it wasn’t a great administration. It’s all legend now, so truth doesn’t matter. His inexperience resulted in something called the Bay of Pigs. Experience in politics gives you the ability to cut through the bullshit. Guess what, the CIA and Pentagon aren’t always right. If you take the brass as gospel, a lot of people will be screwed.

    It doesn’t matter who gets in.

    The country changed over 75 years ago and our government has not kept up.

    We need to scrap it and start over.

    This is like trying to repair a broken roof with bent hammers and rusty saws. It is not going to go well.

    #20 Jägermeister – Historically, the numbers for the Democrats are always highest after the convention. The pole to which you reference was taken prior to the announcement of Palin.

    From your link, “Obama leads McCain 49-41 percent in the most recent Gallup Poll daily tracking survey, which measured voter sentiment during a three-day period ending Aug. 28.”

    The latest nationwide survey, begun Friday afternoon after the McCain announcement of Palin as running mate and completed mid-afternoon today, shows McCain/Palin at 47%, compared to 45% support for Obama/Biden.

    The sad thing is, the Democrats believe if their party, Obama/Biden, is elected it will get the US out of conflict in the Middle East. Get a clue.

    It’s an “online survey”… perhaps we should wait until the others come out with their figures.

    Every administration so far has been supporting the Zionist cause. It’s about political survival since the Jews contribute money and the evangelicals love Israel.

    I was hoping someone would be able to find some video of her at the miss Alaska pageant, but this is still amusing.

    I think this is funny as hell. The best laugh I have had in a long time. Just as the Democrats were basking in the warm glow of their Denver Passion Play McCain winds up and smacks them in the head with a lovely, articulate, experienced, smart woman.

    Guess “The One” is not the only one with fresh ideas and charisma.

    #33 Jägermeister – Two good points. Perhaps we should support a candidate who doesn’t take money from those groups with out making it clear they will get nothing in return.

    Is there a point to this video other than to show an adequate job at being a TV sports reporter?

    That’s what people said about FDR and Truman.

    #17
    And you think sending junior Obama up against Putin is better than McCain?
