Free Republic

I disagree with most of your thinking that Palin would not be a problem. I scares me that getting the job as president does not include the simple vetting that a police officer, FBI agent or even a worker in a high level financial job would receive. If your elected president do you need to summit to drug testing, psych evaluations, lie detector tests, background test, neighbor and friend questionings; too my knowledge this level of basic testing testing dose not happen if your elected president.

Without such testing how can we be assured that said person will not snap and push the button because the stress off office got to be too much? Palin in her only other political job (under 2 years)simply quit when the stress of all that litigation concerning her misuse of office got to be too much, so who is to say that the dingbat wont push the button?

People don’t pick a president, gawd does.

Could you please include the URLs to the story on the Washington post? I got onto the post web site and searched for all the keywords separately and all together “National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund (”NRA-PVF”)” I cannot find the article you are writing about. Though equally disturbing I found an article about Obama wanting to raise the tax on guns and ammo 500% no not a typo five hundred percent, WTF I love to shoot I’m a law abiding citizen, I pay my taxes and if it costs me $10 to shoot one round, its just one more thing I cant afford.

If we are actually lending the money to corporations (Supposedly 2 years) then we should get something in return and it should be the same thing a bank or corporations have been asking us for, its a little thing called interest.

Yet now we are coerced into using Paulson Plan, the plan if you can call it that is demanding no accountability to anyone. No reviews by congress. No review by judges. Paulson will have 700$ billion to dole out as he sees fit, buying crap debt from his buddies and pawning it off on the American people. He will have total pricing authority on the 700B.

No accountability
Conflict of internist
No proof the plan will actually work

This is a serious issues that’s been plaguing our nation for some time, I insist that congress immediately stop work on everything, appoint a committee and rectumfy this situation.
