snicker....They’re SCARED!!!!!!!!!!
Didn’t ‘the one’, the most merciful messiah rule Europe for a few days last month ?
bottom line:
Palin is more qualified to be VICE president than obama is to be president.
let’s not forget that she isn’t running for president - a distinction most are omitting.
They SURE are!!! I haven’t seen them squawking like this in YEARS!!!
Barack Obama’s candidacy is not borderline ridiculous.
It’s totally, completely and unequivocally ridiculous.
I'd vote for that in a New York Minute.
You're about to get your wish, Bobby. And the McCain/Palin team just collected $10 million to help defray the costs. [grin]
FROM NEWSWEEK ARTICLE (youi kow...when they liked Palin):
In Alaska, Palin is challenging the dominant, sometimes corrupting, role of oil companies in the state’s political culture. “The public has put a lot of faith in us,” says Palin during a meeting with lawmakers in her downtown Anchorage office, where—as if to drive the point home—the giant letters on the side of the ConocoPhillips skyscraper fill an entire wall of windows. “They’re saying, ‘Here’s your shot, clean it up’.” For Palin, that has meant tackling the cozy relationship between the state’s political elite and the energy industry that provides 85 percent of Alaska’s tax revenues—and distancing herself from fellow Republicans, including the state’s senior U.S. senator, Ted Stevens, whose home was recently searched by FBI agents looking for evidence in an ongoing corruption investigation. (Stevens has denied any wrongdoing.) But even as she tackles Big Oil’s power, Palin has transformed her own family’s connections to the industry into a political advantage. Her husband, Todd, is a longtime employee of BP, but, as Palin points out, the “First Dude” is a blue-collar “sloper,” a fieldworker on the North Slope, a cherished occupation in the state. “He’s not in London making the decisions whether to build a gas line.”
In an interview with NEWSWEEK, Palin said it’s time for Alaska to “grow up” and end its reliance on pork-barrel spending. Shortly after taking office, Palin canceled funding for the “Bridge to Nowhere,” a $330 million project that Stevens helped champion in Congress. The bridge, which would have linked the town of Ketchikan to an island airport, had come to symbolize Alaska’s dependence on federal handouts. Rather than relying on such largesse, says Palin, she wants to prove Alaska can pay its own way, developing its huge energy wealth in ways that are “politically and environmentally clean.”
Sounds good to me!!!
It only looks ridiculous from Obama’s perspective because his candidacy is so ridiculous. Palin’s level of experience would make a much better target if it wasn’t so comparable to Obama’s (which he, and of course the MSM, are ignoring).
Just had a thought.....McCain should be a REAL maverick, and switch places with Palin.....he runs as VP, she as President.....then let's see how they like it.....BAAAWWWAAAAHHHHHHHHH
So ironic how Patty Murray was absolutely qualified in her run for the Senate when she was “just a mom in tennis shoes.” Yet a sitting governor ...
That’s gonna leave a mark, Johnny.
They will do it for the next 9 weeks... Count on it you Dumocrat fool.
Obama can’t be President... The man has NO experience and calling Biden at 3:00am in the morning for advice just isn’t going to cut it. BTW - What happens if Biden dies???
OMG... These guys really had themselves convinced that Palin’s lack of experience would make their highly inexperienced candidate a foreign policy expert overnight.... LOL!!! NOT!!!
Yeah, this week they are picking on infants and teenagers.
Then I attempted to post it but changed it to LOL!!!!!! Same thing - rejected.
ABC would not post accept my post because it had the potential to be spammed or something like that. Nice respect for my first amendment rights.
