"But Sarah Palin can come across as utterly unready to lead the world — or even find the world on a map — and that doesn’t reflect poorly on the rest of us."

Oh enough of this nonsense! This is getting utterly moronic!

For anyone interested, especially Ms. Dowd, go read up on the Alaska Highway Pipeline that Sarah Palin negotiated to be built by TransCanada Corp. Sarah busted the chops of ExxonMobil, ConnocoPhillips and BP who had been sitting on their butts for years not wanting to build a much needed gas pipeline coming off the North Slope. In doing so, this new pipeline will provide the USA with 6%-8% of natural gas needs. Iran, Russia, and Qatar are in the process of forming a natural gas cartel. Sarah Palin just beat those three countries in a geopolitical economic war and put the USA on the road to ensured independence for our natural gas needs.

And Obama has done what? What has that nasty little do-nothing ever done? Nothing! Obama can't hold a candle to Sarah Palin's achievements!

Enough of this nonsense. Sarah Palin is a very intelligent woman who is making America energy independent and Obama is a complete MORON who is going to strangle the USA into serfdom to the terrorist nations who produce energy.

If it was legitimately "needed" then the companies would have built it on their own initiative. The fact that political pressure was needed to make the project happen shows that it was a Bridge-to-Nowhere type boondoggle.
