Let me see if I have this straight....
If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you're 'exotic,
different.'
Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, a quintessential American story.
If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you're a maverick.
Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.
Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you're well grounded.
If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the
first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter
registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years
as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator
representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of
the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years
in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people
while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs,
Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you
don't have any real leadership experience.
If your total resume is; local weather girl, 4 years on the city
council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000
people, 20 months as the governor of a state with 650,000 people, then
you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking
executive.
If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising
2 daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a 'real'
Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your
disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a
Christian.
If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the
proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no
other option in sex education in your state's school system while your
unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you're very responsible.
If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a
prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city
community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family's values
don't represent America's.
If you're husband is nicknamed 'First Dude', with at least one DWI
conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until
age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession
of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.
OK, much clearer now.
it just gets better and better.
McPalin are the funniest thing to hit the scene ever.
Their meltdown is gonna be a classic.
They're even more ludicrous than Bushit.
That is great TehBorken!
The more I see that Alaska gal is out of touch with not only the USA, but the world.
just to add on to it
'98- Obama tried to board a Southwest airlines plane to get home, his credit card was denied
'00- Obama paid of his student loans
Cindy McCain spends 750,000 a month in credit card bills
McCain has 8 or something homes and Obama's the one being called 'elitist'. lol
Isn't Mcain about 80? Nothing against the elderly, but that is a lot to take on no?
if he's elected 2 terms he will be 80.
ah! He is younger than I thought.
as a federal employee (non politician) he would have been forced to retire a while ago. lol
Lol

Not unlike how different sects choose to interpret the Bible. Just bend it to fit whatever it is they want to take from it....and take from it just the bits they want. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/4.gif)
[DIV id=navBG] [SPAN class=title][A href="vny!://www.hayibo.com/articles/view/873"]Palintology to study dino bones put there by God 6,000 years ago [/A][/SPAN]
US vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin has vowed that if John McCain overcomes incontinence and yellow teeth to enter the White House she will guarantee that the teaching of evolution is replaced by Palintology in all high schools. According to Republican science advisors Palintology is the study of why God hid dinosaur bones all over the world 6,000 years ago.[/DIV]
Teh,
I just found out the the potential future Commander in Chief of the worlds most powerful nation in the world never had a passport until last year.
Crikey - not trying to brag but I went back packing through Europe and Africa before I was 20. I have made it to narly 40? countries at this point. I've lived and worked abroad for months at a time. I've lived in Asia for close to 3-4 years.
Even with all that under my belt, I still have no freakin' idea about what makes the world tick, I get the Palestinian, Lebanese and the Istaelis all mixed up. I've travelled to Muslim countries I have friends who are muslim but I don't pretend to understand the anti american sentiment in much of the muslim world. (has Sarah ever met a muslim ?? are muslims allowed in alaska??)
How can someone with a few months of world travelling under her belt be given the nuclear codes I don't think this is a good idea. That's just me.
She may have a deeper understanding of world politics than I, (?) but if she can't express her thoughts on a level that's any higher than a grade 8 highschool student, it's not going to wash. Well....it's not washing with me. I still maintain that she sounds like a ditz. I'm no genius when it comes to expressing myself.....but on the other hand, I'm not in the position of becoming the Vice President of anything.
