Tell me what Sarah Palin can’t do!

[Old Sarge]

She can’t father a child?

We know what Biden can do...

He can shout down someone by yelling, "I think my IQ is higher than yours."

Biden is a heart-beat away from angering Putin.

She's allergic to Kryptonite?

I know what she can't do. She can't surround her children with role models whom she would be ashamed of or those who would shock the average voter (as Obama did). She can't let corruption in her own party slide by to help her get ahead. She can't whine about problems when she's in a position to actually solve them. And she can't be criticized as unready for office. Four presidents generally ranked in the top fifteen by historians have had experience comparable to Governor Palin’s prior to assuming office: Franklin Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Grover Cleveland.

Sarah Palin spent four years as a City Council Member for Wasilla, Alaska, six years as Mayor of Wasilla, and two years as Governor of Alaska.

FDR spent just over two years in the New York State Senate, eight years as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, and four years as Governor of New York.

Theodore Roosevelt spent some time in the New York State Assembly(?), two years as Governor of New York, two years as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, and less than one year as Vice President of the United States.

Woodrow Wilson spent eight years as President of Princeton University and two years as Governor of New Jersey.

Grover Cleveland spent two years as Sheriff of Erie County, two years as Mayor of Buffalo, and two years as Governor of New York.

Overall, I’d say that Palin’s background is comparable with that of several presidents considered highly successful, even considering that her state has a smaller population than the other two states on the list.

While Obama has been running for office for as long as Palin has been running a state, I find it hard to consider the two tasks as comparable preparation.

One final note: I will be posting this multiple times because I think it is important to get the word out that that her experience is in keeping with previous presidents. I apologize to those who are annoyed by seeing it too often.

You ask a very important question, and one I’ve been researching all weekend. What I’ve come up with is not good. Let me share JUST ONE item I found in my research.

Here’s something she CAN do: misuse eminent domain and leave her town deeply in debt, even AFTER a tax increase. Oh yes, she did:

http://www.adn.com/matsu/story/474934.html

After she pushed through the building of a $14.7mm sports complex (that’s over $1500 for every man, woman and child in Wasilla), she forgot to buy the land, so it was purchased by a developer named Lundgren. Without any basis whatsoever, Palin tried to take the land from Lundgren using eminent domain. The city has spent nearly $2mm in legal fees since then and still hasn’t won the case, although it completed the sports center (on Lundgren’s land) in 2004.

The city is still $7mm in debt on the sports center and the residents are still paying higher sales taxes to support it and the litigation goes on.

I thought Freepers opposed abuses of eminent domain. I thought Freepers opposed raising taxes to fund government boondoggles. Oh well, I guess that went out the window when we collectively abandoned our principles to support John McAmnesty.

It’s all there in the article. Expect the MSM and the left to be all over this soon. And believe me, there’s more.
