Sarah Palin makes a campaign appearance today with GOP presidential running mate John McCain in the swing state of Missouri. Here are three questions Palin could answer that might give Americans a better insight on this mystery politician:
1. Why did you get pregnant at age 43, already serving as governor of Alaska, with your oldest child already getting ready to head out the door?
It's not a disqualifer as vice president, of course, but does make me wonder about your judgment.
2. Why do you keep repeating the untruth that you told Congress "thanks, but no thanks on that Bridge to Nowhere"?
Sure, politicians mislead people all the time. But you might want to be a little different as you introduce yourself to the American people.
3. Do you really embrace McCain's policies on energy, foreign policy and the economy?
You didn't really say much of substance about those last two issues in your acceptance speech last week. And on energy, you want to drill anywhere and everywhere, where McCain has the common sense to not want to do it in your home state.

Dang, that first question is sexist beyond extreme. What ever happened to “a woman’s right to choose?”
YOu have to love the fact the left is this out of sorts:

Why did John Edwards continue to run when his wife tested positive for cancer?
Why did Bill Clinton run for office when his daughter was at a very vulnerable age in which a present father is important (and why is Obama doing it today?)
Why did JFK run for office when he had very young children?
The KC Star is a subsidiary of the Dim party. “This mystery politician” ??? Ha! If they want a mystery politician, meet B.O.
But here's my question to you: If you liberals want the freedom to marry within your own gender, and want to be free to kill unwanted burdens resulting from whatever sex you have, why is it not the right of Mrs. Palin to have a child whenever she wants to? Does her job preclude her from having a child? I know you aging hippies, who we call the great unwashed, probably don't get much sex, but still, you'd think the freedom issue might cross over to married heterosexuals too...
What’s that definition of insanity ?......doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.....remember the left’s lying about Reagan in 1980 and 1984....Bush 200 and 2004....and now Palin.....I’m thinking of the last line in Red Dawn when Patrick Swazey (sp) gets the jump on the commie and says..”You Lose” and then blows him away !
she probably got preganant the same way I got pregnant nearly 6 yrs after my last: IT WAS A MISTAKE!......a fun one, IRRC....
How about:
Q1: From a personal and technical viewpoint; "You wouldn't understand."
Muslims for Obama BUMP!
Err......artificial insemination............
Pefect! Let’s add this to the list of questions for Obama also!
Senator Obama, due to the fact that you and your wife are over 40 years of age, how do you prevent unwanted pregnancies? As a follow-up, if you would find yourself punished with an unintended pregnancy, would you force your wife to abort the child?
And “reporter” Boolahboolah or whatever wouldn’t be satisfied to any answers given to their hitjob questions. What a lemming.
Why did you get pregnant at age 43, already serving as governor of Alaska, with your oldest child already getting ready to head out the door? It’s not a disqualifer as vice president, of course, but does make me wonder about your judgment.
If I was her the answer would be noe of your bloody business. But more to the point why would this make you question this person judgement? Something wrong with having children in your book? Something wrong with working women having children? Is it her age? Why?
“why did you get pregnant at age 43?”
Correct answer: “None of your business. Next question.”
Answers:
1. NOYFB
2. Not an untruth.
3. Vice versa............
The media is damn predictable. I did a search on Palin and the bridge to nowhere, and EVERY SINGLE article either either says that she used it for her gain or she was for it before she was against it. Now, I’m not saying that Palin’s position was golden, but the drive to mislead the public as to the real story has hit inane proportions.
The line most often used to sink Palin is the John Kerry-buster, “I voted for it before I voted against it.” In Palin’s case, the words remain but the meaning is flipped. Palin’s rejection, in whole or in part, of the project is seen as a good thing, whereas Kerry’s final decision was a poor one. The point is, when Palin made up her mind, things got better. So who cares if she was for it before she was against it? It isn’t like abortion, where reasonable people are expected to cement their opinions at the age of three.
I know that this is a complicated situation, and the convention line was probably hyperbole. But Obama and Biden would NEVER be submitted to hair-splitting like this over their records, and not just because Obama barely has a record.
Can we please limit editorials from writers who at least have names that sound American?
wow, disgusting...
Okay... I’m just catching up on this thread...was this question REALLY ASKED?????? FOR REALS??
I wouldn’t have stooped to the level of even answering that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
