“Let's see, Israel, India, Germany, Hong Kong, Haiti and I believe she'll be going to England. Oh she's been to Ireland and Kuwait too. And I think Iraq. How many other candidates have traveled? And to what countries?”

You THINK Iraq? Think again. Kuwait was 2008 and most of the rest were the same trip just this March.

How about visiting the UK and seeing David Cameron, how about going to see Sarkozy in France? Neither one seems thrilled with the current moron in chief, good press that would have been.

MANY future candidates have written books on foreign policy, but the point is she needed to get political cover for her perceived weakness! We already knew she loved Alaska and fishing, okay? SHE needed to show people her seriousness and determination. She didn't.

Again, I like her, I was rooting for her to succeed, but I'm disappointed in the way she's spent her time. I think it's a fair criticism.

She visited the Khabari Alawazem Crossing at the Kuwait–Iraq border.

Excuse me but you said : Governor Palin should have spent the last three years traveling the world Now you want to move the goalposts? No.

She has been. Now you name another Presidential hopefull that has done the same.

How about visiting the UK and seeing David Cameron

She IS going to England. That's been posted on FR and I also told you.

Name them. Name candidates that have written policy books and name where they traveled before running.

Name one of the current Republican candidates who's written a book on foreign policy, or who has traveled as extensively to foreign countries in the last two years, as Sarah Palin has.

Your criticism is baseless, and you set an artificial high bar for Palin that you DON'T apply to any other candidate.

Don't forget to list those books!
