Barack Obama: 2 years of not showing up to do the job his constituents hired him to do. How does that equate to foreign policy experience? He may consider running for president to equal foreign policy experience since he considers the majority of America, especially small-town America to be a foreign country.

“”Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency,” Obama spokesman Bill Burton said in a statement.”

Well, last night the Democratic Party put a Senator with no foreign policy experience zero heartbeats away from the Presidency.

He'll probably select his mud hut brother as some Ambassador to Kenya or something.

One of her overlooked qualifications on foreign policy is that her state BORDERS ON RUSSIA.

Good point! The other one is her extensive energy and oil experience, much of which inevitably requires knowledge and understanding of the foreign countries we deal with on this.

Obama's state seems to border on Never-Never Land, but we won't get into that.

As opposed to Obama’s “zero experience”?

You could be on to something. Too bad Barr became a limp wristed, pro-gays, pro-drugs, pro-Algore, pro-ACLU, anti-war, anti-Patriot Act, anti-Bush liberal.

I’ve already heard the “mantra” twice from McCain people on the news shows when questioned about Palin’s experience:

Our VP candidate has more experience than your Presidential candidate.

That’s evidently going to be the talking point, and it’s a good one.

Obama is a beauty queen, but never was Mayor. And Palin could beat him in a game of Hourse.

How’s that gonna play in the inner city.

He counts votes.

He's a first term Senator. He isn't senior enough to count votes.

You better buy a hat, because you’ll need one to eat on November 4th.

Considering her son is heading for a tour of service in Iraq, I think she is up to speed on the need for the US to be in Iraq.

This wonderful woman's experience was being Secretary of Education and Science before becoming the second greatest PM in the UK's history.

I'll take someone who is right versus someone with 30 years of being wrong any day.

IOW Sarah is your typical Republican who believes in elections only so long as her party wins them by suppressing the vote.

No, she's the typical conservative who's not afraid to take a stand and make a decision.

the Obama campaign just got rope-a-doped...

...Palin has a great story of accomplishments and she and her close friends can tell the entire story...expeience as a PTA mom and experience as a mayor relates to heartland America at a deep level...being a governor brings executive experience...being a governor of a state rich in natural resources is experience needed in todays world.

on the other hand, the witnesses and friends to Obama’s story are people like Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Weight, Frank Marshall Davis, and Bernardine Dohrn, folks Obama doesn't want to tell the story...a senator sitting in congress being in the majority party when congress has a 9% approval rating and doesn't even have one bill with his name on it.

“Palin started her political career in a small town, Obama started his in the house of a domestic terrorist.”

LOL!

Yes...her humble beginnings at the local PTA are much more appealing than Bill Ayers home aren’t they?

Remember, its not really the front runner or the VP that is important, ITS THE PEOPLE THEY APPOINT and get their advise from!!! That was once told to me by a Democrat politician from NYC. It will remain in my mind forever.

And

4) The Democrats have chosen for their presidential nominee who has no executive experience, and whose only experience at being in charge of a budget was the Annenberg Challenge, which is widely acknowledged to have had (at best) no positive net results, despite the expenditure of approximately $150 million.
