...The Democrats pounced immediately on the choice of Palin, charging that she is unqualified, especially compared to the ticket of Barack Obama and Joe Biden, who have a total of nearly 40 years of experience in the U.S. Senate, or, if you subtract Biden, nearly four years of experience...

I love it when Dave does politics.
You’re slipping, Dave. Can’t use the McCain Houses joke twice in the same article.
Obama's has sat through 143 days in the Senate. Short years.
Pretty funny stuff. Puts late night comics to shame by demonstrating that there is plenty to make fun of when it comes to Obama.
I thought Dave Barry was retired or dead or something.
If you subtract Biden the O has two years in the senate.
He has been campaigning for at least two years and that can’t be counted as “experience”.
“Palin, who has been governor of Alaska for two years, before which she was mayor of the Alaskan city of Wasilla, which has the same total number of households as John McCain.”
Have to admit that that’s pretty funny.
“....especially compared to the ticket of Barack Obama and Joe Biden, who have a total of nearly 40 years.”
I don’t buy the “experience” argument(particularly “senatorial experience”).
The demented old fool Robert Byrd has more “experience” than anyone. Similarly, the murderer and traitor representing Massachusetts have a great deal of experience.
Give me an honest citizen politican, like say Sam Drucker the Hooterville grocer, over most ANY of these professional politicans, anyday.
But the fact is that Wasilla is a fairly small town, to judge by its official website (www.cityofwasilla.com), which, over the weekend, under ‘’Wasilla News,’’ listed the Palin story below one headlined (I am not making this up) ``Wasilla Farmers Market Expanded.’’
Another one will be the Republicans’ effort to contrast the tone and style of their convention with that of the Democrats, particularly Barack Obama’s now-legendary acceptance speech, which he read from stone tablets, in which he promised the American public that if elected he would give them peace, jobs, healthcare, national security, energy independence, good schools, a clean environment, reduced government waste, lower taxes, the head of Osama bin Laden, giant underwater cities, time travel, and a magic flying zebra named ‘’Sparkle’’ for every American pre-schooler regardless of income level.
LMAO
He’s good. It is worth reading for a laugh.
Read while stoned on some tablets.

I love it even more when he doesn’t.
“There was some grumbling among Republican insiders that McCain would have been better off choosing somebody with a thicker résumé, such as Mitt Romney, who actually won Miss Alaska 1984.”
He did retire.
I’m not sure why he’s had a couple of articles lately but I’m glad to see him back!
And a third eyeball out for moose.
