NECN: Former vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, criticized for her lack of foreign policy experience, emerged in Asia on Wednesday to share her views from "Main Street U.S.A" with a group of high-flying global investors.

"I'm going to call it like I see it and I will share with you candidly a view right from Main Street, Main Street, U.S.A.," Palin told a room full of asset managers and other finance professionals, according to a video of part of the speech obtained by The Associated Press. "And how perhaps my view of Main Street -- representing perhaps a lot of other people -- how that affects you, your business."

“....criticized for her lack of foreign policy experience.”

As opposed to the years of voluminous foreign policy experience of President Toonces.

Yes, Sarah was roundly criticized for her lack of foreign policy experience.
How just that the POST following this one is a litany of “O”s horrendous lack of FOREIGN POLICY EXPERIENCE and it’s terrible results.
It is to laugh, but it is NOT FUNNY.
With apologies to Winston, NEVER HAVE SO MANY BEEN SO FOOLED BY SO FEW.

It is interesting that this post, which starts with "Sarah Palin, criticized for her lack of foreign policy experience, emerged in Asia on Wednesday" is followed by a Washington Times post describing Obama as having "The worst foreign policy, EVER".

I had a conversation a couple of weeks ago with an Obama supporter. When I suggested that Palin was a viable conservative alternative, he exclaimed "She has no experience!" When I said "she has more executive experience that Obama", he decried "Alaska is a small state".

It goes to show that the media spin is pervasive, and it is difficult to counter.

Jimmy Carter has a lot of Foreign Policy experience. But that does not seem to translate into any wisdom. Obama seems to be following Carter’s path.

“Main Street U.S.A”

This is the theme Palin will use to take back the government.

Yeah, but it's bigger than the 57th state that Zero ran.

It’s a little disturbing, but I think I’m in love with her.

2012!!

I think I'm beginning to see the strategy and she is doing the right things. So far so good and I can't wait to cast my vote for her in 2012.

Alaska is a small state perhaps population wise but definitely not size wise. Alaska is about 1/2 the size of the '48 states combined'.

GO SARAH!!!

Help us get the country back to her constitutional definition.

Sarah’s strategy was crystal clear the day she stepped down. Not only did she precisely explain why but gave a HUGE hint at her coming plans.
