Re: Just Shoot Me Now, Okay?

No jwest, that comparison is BS. Primary period interviews with large fields of candidates are rightly not the same as interviewing the appears from absolutely nowhere nominee. Let's remember that years of media scrutiny have been compressed to days with regards to Sarah Palin. She can't handle fairly obvious questions and that bodes ill for her ability to delivery the quality of service this country deserves from its elected officials.

It's fine not to agree with Obama on the issues but he's the quality of mind that America deserves. McCain is his prime as well. Biden certainly. Palin? Not at all.

This isn't to say she's stupid. She could over some period of time greater than the next 60 days become adept at a wide variety of topics and issues. She is at minimum not ready for the national stage and at worst a total disaster at all levels.

Ok, even we accept the idea that Al Queda operates in Iraq today...they didn't before we broke the country. Endless occupation isn't going to fix that.

Advocating armed conflict in neighboring states won't fix that. Posturing for at best a Cold War if not a hot one with Russia won't fix that. Continuing to add cars to a foreign policy train that is already derailing isn't the right approach.

No matter how much one might love Palin or want to bed her ala Donnie Deutsch, it does not create any level of foreign policy understanding or acumen. One need only look to her lack of command during the planned to be friendly Charlie Gibson interview. Bush Doctrine? Hello.

No voter fantasy sexual or otherwise is going to turn Palin into the kind of person that should be President Pro Tem of the Senate or first understudy to the President. It's not an experience question. It's a fundamental knowledge question.

Regardless of how this story became an untruth. It's not a true story.

The Right has become legendary for their inability to tell the truth about the simplest things. Whether a malicious lie or an uncorrected untruth ceases to be relevant in the face of repeated breaches of trust.

AustinRoth, why is it so much to expect that even the simplest things can be related in ways that relate reality rather than jumbled messes if not outright lies? Don't we all deserve better regardless of religious affiliation?

Re: Sarah Palin as Reese Witherspoon - and that’s a good thing

Honestly, I'm also perplexed by the "attractiveness" that's touted about this woman. Mind you, I live in a place where "the beautiful people" abound, but is fapping to the VP candidate all the RNC can offer? She's an empty suit on policy. She's under multiple legal investigations. She offers nothing substantive that mainstream America really wants other than the faint hope for every middle-aged man that the overweight woman that he's married to today will somehow magically turn into Sarah Palin and that she won't mind the fact that he's let himself go too.

America can do better than the soiled Kleenex of politic delusion.

Why, why, why do I still have to point out that if Hillary is elected President we will have a minimum of 24 years that the White House has been in the control of TWO families. Almost anyone is preferable to HRC just to end the dynastic string that has occurred since Reagan left office. A democrat is better, but regardless not a Bush or Clinton needs to be the President.

From the standpoint of dynasty, I will still oppose Hillary in 4 years. Of course, then she'll be running against Jeb as he unseats the failed President McCain. Enough with the dynasty building already.

So then we have no candidate. If Obama is unacceptable then there is nothing to bother with this year. An ongoing familial dynasty is unacceptable to the nation lest we conclude that Jeb should follow a Hillary presidency. America is a diverse place and the same 2 families running the country for 20+ years is not American.
