Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
Campbell Brown has been totally disgusting.
Thanks for posting.
If Bill Clinton hadn’t been President, he never would have passed a security background check.
Thanks for your feedback, God bless!
Good job!
bttt
Obama will claim he was privy to classified info when he worked at Baskin-Robbins. Secret new flavor of the month: Tuti fruiti. Shhh!
Needs repeating often.
Is there a “Palin Facts File” on FR yet?
I read over the weekend that there have been 46 (I believe) incursions by Russians into Alaskan airspace in he last 6 months. Where’s Barry’s experience?
But, but, but ... as a 'community organizer' Barry worked with the Gangster Disciples and Vice Lords street gangs. Annnnnnd Barry's best friends with an unrepentant Domestic Terrorist. Plus, Barry is best buds with a convicted Felon, Tony Rezko, now doing time in Club Fed.Barack Obama would kill to have had that much access to classified defense information as a member of the U.S. Senate!
- As governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counterterrorism. Her exposure to classified material may rival even Biden's.
- She's also the commander in chief of the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF), a federally recognized militia incorporated into Homeland Security's counterterrorism plans.
- Palin is privy to military and intelligence secrets that are vital to the entire country's defense. Given Alaska's proximity to Russia, she may have security clearances we don't even know about.
Sarah Palin can't touch that!
Then again why would anyone want to???
From an Irish News Paper...........
http://www.independent.ie/opinion/analysis/mccain-wrongfooted-obama-with-his-choice-of-running-mate-1466334.html
Once the dust settled on the Democratic struggle for the nomination, and Hillary lay flattened under Obama’s chariot wheels, the vast majority of the punditry were clear McCain hadn’t a chance. Up against a rival of brilliance, oratorical near-genius, rockstar status and overwhelming appeal to the young, what did the old inarticulate guy have to offer except to keep bleating about experience, which bored the punditry. Obama offered excitement, change, hope, vision, aspiration and the chant, ‘Yes we can’. Indeed, his inexperience seemed a plus; having been a US senator for only a few years, he was untainted by the cynical world of the Washington insider.
But the McCain camp scrutinised Obama and spotted weaknesses. He isn’t just vain, which considering his extraordinary gifts is understandable: he’s narcissistic and, increasingly, messianic. His inexperience is so startling that it suggests amazing arrogance even to consider running for the presidency. And hardly anyone seems really to know him.
‘The One’ (easily found on youtube.com). It begins with a sonorous voice: “It shall be known that in 2008 the world shall be blessed. They will call him ‘The One’.” Obama is shown saying: “A nation healed. A world repaired. We’re the ones we’ve been waiting for.”
“He has,” says the narrator, “anointed himself ready to carry the burden of ‘The One’.” To quote Barack: “I have become a symbol of America returning to our best traditions.” And, after showing him in Berlin announcing, “This was the moment when the rise of the ocean began to slow and our planet began to heal,” the ad cuts to Charlton Heston as Moses parting the Red Sea. “He may be ‘The One’,” says the narrator. “But is he ready to lead?” Obama didn’t react well. The guy doesn’t like being laughed at. Nor have his team found a way of making fun of McCain, since McCain has preempted the Democrats with jokes about himself.
Having goaded the Obama campaign all week with mischievous internet attack advertisements, on Friday McCain announced Sarah Palin as his running-mate. The first panic-stricken response from the Obama campaign was to mock her for her inexperience: “Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency. Governor Palin shares John McCain’s commitment to overturning Roe v Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush’s failed economic policies — that’s not the change we need, it’s just more of the same.”
Half-an-hour later, Obama and Biden (who have never run anything) changed the tune: “We send our congratulations to Governor Palin and her family on her designation as the Republican nominee for vice president. Her selection is yet another encouraging sign that all barriers are falling in our politics and while we obviously have differences over how to best lead this country forward, Governor Palin is an admirable person and will add a compelling new voice to this campaign.”
Wow thanks...wish I would have had that info when I was in line in front of a mouthy liberal in Walmart on Saturday that smarted off to me about Sarah’s lack of experience if McCain happened to “kick the bucket”. I just told him that Sarah has just as much experience as Obama does, more if you count executive experience. Left him there with his mouth hanging open.
