Palin is scaring the sh*t out of me. I'm voting for the B-man but not without some misgivings. I fear, however, America will be dim enough to elect McCain and the beauty queen. But here's the rub: How can ANYONE, after seeing this interview, really believe she's ready for probably the toughest job in the world? I know there are many cool-aid drinkers out there, but fer cryin' out loud.
Bluering: Were you just being sarcastic or are you really and truly okay with this woman being one little stroke or heart attack away from the oval office?
Cheers and beers as the economy melts before our eyes.

Putting Amerika first.....
PALIN: 'ONLY FLAG IN MY OFFICE' IS ISRAELI
President Peres of Israel yesterday met for the first time with Governor Palin and with Senator McCain, who called the veteran Israeli statesman "my old friend." The warm handshake and exchange of broad smiles occurred during an international gathering known as the Clinton Global Initiative, hosted by President Clinton. "I wanted to meet you for many years," Ms. Palin told Mr. Peres, according to an aide to the president. "The only flag at my office is an Israeli flag," she was quoted as saying, "and I want you to know and I want Israelis to know that I am a friend."

She's gotta go.
She's far less qualified to run this country than even Bush.
UD, that's even more data!
I read the following column this morning by conservative columnist Kathleen Parker in that shining example of liberal media bias, "Townhall." She is spot on.
http://townhall.com/columnists/KathleenParker/2008/09/26/the_palin_problem
Again, this is a conservative columnist who is sounding the alarm bell.
From the column:
Palin's recent interviews with Charles Gibson, Sean Hannity and now Katie Couric have all revealed an attractive, earnest, confident candidate. Who Is Clearly Out Of Her League.
No one hates saying that more than I do. Like so many women, I've been pulling for Palin, wishing her the best, hoping she will perform brilliantly. I've also noticed that I watch her interviews with the held breath of an anxious parent, my finger poised over the mute button in case it gets too painful. Unfortunately, it often does. My cringe reflex is exhausted.
-snip-
What to do?
McCain can't repudiate his choice for running mate. He not only risks the wrath of the GOP's unforgiving base, but he invites others to second-guess his executive decision-making ability. Barack Obama faces the same problem with Biden.
Only Palin can save McCain, her party and the country she loves. She can bow out for personal reasons, perhaps because she wants to spend more time with her newborn. No one would criticize a mother who puts her family first.
Do it for your country.
As I stated before, putting aside ideological differences, my concerns have to do with fundamental competence to run the government. She is, as Parker points out, frighteningly out of her league.
I don't care, at this point, if McCain apponts another hard-core right winger as Veep. I just want someone who is competent to run the damned government!
We'd be f*#ked if she becomes President. No joke, no hyperbole, ...f*#ked!

I'm pretty sure someone can dig up threads pretty easily with Jody whining about other people doing this kind of stuff.

He's a cry baby. Always has been. A big whiney baby. Does stuff like this and then complains when everyone picks on him. Then he'll retreat (or in many cases, create second IDs), lick his wounds, and do it again.

Poor Jody. Start a thread about how persecuted Christians are. That will make you feel better I'm sure.
