Great post, Rob. You referred to Obama as a female in your second-to-last paragraph though.

Doh.  Fixed it.

Rob’s recently listened-to songs:

And today, on this historic day, Sarah Palin becomes America’s first smokin hot VP candidate.

Hope she has substance too.

I know it’s really hard Bill, but you can control that tick that makes your eyes jump over the original post directly to the comments.

Obama is not going to bring up her lack of experience.  Experience is the Republican talking point.  But what it does is make it difficult for McCain to bring up Obama’s lack of experience.

I am pleased to see a woman on a major party presidential ticket.  But I’m afraid John McCain is using this gender card, not out of genuine consideration of her qualifications, but rather to attract the female vote - especially from those who continue to have difficulties putting past their disappointment and anger towards the Obama-Clinton situation.  As great an individual Palin may be, I do not believe she is experienced enough to take the position of VP.  It’s true; people vote for the President, not the running mate, but with John McCain’s old age and history of ailments, I can’t help but see Palin’s lack of experience in the national stage as something concerning.

Obama is not going to bring up her lack of experience.

Obama already did, complete with an appropriate smackdown by McCain.

Well, I don’t believe everything I read on a blog, however well written that blog might be.

I read on fox news that she thought McCain did well fighting against politics as usual, and if she really did the things she did in Alaska, somehow I think that she might be a bit harder on McCain’s record.  He still is a part of a congress that spends disgusting amounts of tax dollars.

So I reserve my opinions until I see what she is really made of.

I hope Sarah Palin will one day be President. I am so impressed with her. She is a great choice! She has more experience than any of the four candidates so that is not the best argument IF you are a DEM.

Well, I don’t believe everything I read on a blog, however well written that blog might be.

So, don’t, by any means, do any research on your own to determine if Rob is being truthful or just blowing your skirt up.

Actually, McCain has been very clear on where he stands on earmarks.  If you want to pick a point where they don’t agree, try ANWR.

So I reserve my opinions until I see what she is really made of.

Because her time in office is not a matter of public record?

If you don’t have the knowledge, you are left with belief.  It only matters what is true, not what anyone believes.

Hawk,

Not at all!  Ms. Palin may lack foreign policy experience, although the same could obviously be said for Obama (and Biden?), but her executive experience is a lot more substantial than that of either Obama or Biden.

I believe that over the next two months, we are going to see that Sarah Palin is exactly the sort of “change we can believe in.”

In my opinion, Palin’s inclusion on the McCain ticket is a strong positive since unlike Biden she doesn’t bring a lot of garbage to the election fray and she will bring in some of Hillarys disciples.

You don’t have to be a moron to be a liberal Democrat but it sure helps.

This woman is endowed with what is called “cajoles” and she didn’t get them genetically either. I’ve read of her accomplishments and have been very impressed. After watching her acceptance speech I think John McCain is a damn genious for selecting her. She will, I think, wipe the deck with Joe Biden when they debate. She’s a great choice and I’m in love again.

Do you mean “cojones”?  Metaphorically speaking only.

Move_Zig,

That really is an inappropriate and disrespectful way to refer to Mrs. Palin.

I guess cojolies is the feminine form of cahonees.

Or something like that.

Anyhoo—on that Palin On the Issues site, there is nothing, nix, nada on immigration.  Her for-or against homosexual rights seems to be up in the air.  Perhaps one with greater knowledge on the issue can enlighten us.

She does have excellent, pro-Second Amendment bona fides from what brief info I saw.

Question though, assuming McCain bursts a vessel sometime in his administration and she has to step into his shoes, what the heck does she know about international affairs and national defense?

He couldn’t have tapped Petraeus instead?

Sure, she’s a babe, but the iron ladies of Statecraft have usually been as homely as old boots (Thatcher, Ghandi, Golda Meir, Jean Kirkpatrick, etc… )

When a Republican in her own party was revealed as being corrupt, and not adhering to the values of Republicanism, she sought to get him unelected

I know almost nothing about this woman yet, but this is the best reason I know of so far to take her seriously. She has not been corrupted yet by the Washinton D.C. corrupted bunker mentality. The only thing I like about Obama, and now Palin so far, is thier lack of experience in Washington. Washington is a cesspool, and they all end up bathing in it. I like it when outside the beltway people get a chance. Its better no matter what party they reside in. True, GWB was an outsider of sorts, but he had strong ties to the D.C. establishment, and he turned out to be a silly incompetent neo-con. Alaska is an independent minded state, and I like that too. They seem to have some common sense there in Alaska, something purposefully extracted from D.C. regulars, regardless of party affiliation.

And with MC’s advanced age, if he wins, she might just get the big job. A real consideration with MC.

Palin taxed the oil companies and agreed
with the Obama on energy policy.
She has that going for her.

No.

You fail at recognizing reality.

Obama promises to lower taxes, Palin has actually lowered taxes: both as a mayor and as governor. Sarah Palin has a track record of more than simply flapping her lips!

Barack Obama: All hat and no cattle since 1997!

Obama is a Chicago insider. Chicago is even more corrupt than Washington.

Very true, but the scale of corruption is microscopic compared to D.C.

oop, Worded wrong...I cant believe that Chicago has the mass scale of corruption that D.C. has, in scope or in actual dollars.

I meant to say more experienced in the Executive branch! Sorry!

Compared to Obama’s experience, she is over qualified…

Kenny.  For Chicago, just think Chicago Mayor Richard Daley cursed Ribicoff with an anti-Semitic slur at another Democratic Convention.  Then research the corruption and vote buying--dead voting in the JFK election.

Obama supporters are always trying to give the false impression that Obama has soooo many people who want him … but, in reality, in both the primaries, and in this general election, Obama cannot get more than half of the voters. Actually, Palin has more experience and qualifications than Obama. Obama was a community organizer, with no executive experience, who has spent most of his short term as a senator, running for President. Palin, a mayor, and a governor, has already stood up to special interests and big oil companies, while Obama has not shown any kahonies yet, except for when he threw his friend, advisor and mentor of 20 years, under the bus. If Palin could get 90% of the women’s vote, because she is a woman ... just like Obama gets 90% of the black vote, because he is black ... it would be good for our country.

Palin is the MOST qualified individual on either ticket for two reasons.

1. She is the only one with EXECUTIVE experience.

2. She has more PRIVATE SECTOR experience than the other three candidates combined.

Obama is the least qualified, in that prior to going into politics, he never held a REAL JOB of any kind.

oop, Worded wrong...I cant believe that Chicago has the mass scale of corruption that D.C. has, in scope or in actual dollars.

It doesn’t control the scope or actual dollars of federal government. So what exactly is your point?

OK, so Chicago is the microcasm of the federal government, but with a higher corruption rate.

A search for Chicago corruption brings up 18.3 million hits on Yahoo. St. Louis corruption gets 6 (and includes the much worse East St. Louis). Los Angeles brings up 15.5 million. Detroit 5.7 (and their mayor is under endictment). Ironically enough, only Washington D.C. with 18.6 million hits, passes it, and it’s close.

And your original point was that Obama wasn’t tainted by Washington politics...but he is. Chicago politics are tainted and corrupt too. If we must point out that the sheer dollar ammount isn’t as massive, we must also point out that CHICAGO isn’t as massive. Your point is moot.

For the first time in my adult life, I am ashamed of my country.

Because her time in office is not a matter of public record?

Actually, I am waiting to see if all the things that she did do back in Alaska is going to keep track.  I am sure many politicians go into public service intend to do good, but eventually are corrupted by the money and power.

I guess you could say I would like to do more research on the things she has said and done BEFORE her Veep nomination, VS. what happens now that she is the Veep nominee.

Kind of like how Kerry was for the war before he was against the war.  Tons of politicians on the left and the right say what is politically expedient, rather then saying and doing what is right.

Hope that clarifies things.

As a social conservative i am enraged by McCain’s choice of Palin. Here McCain is trying to sell Palin to me as a mother of five while at the same time nominating her for a position that, if served correctly, will take her away from her family. So I am now asked to chose between an absentee Vice President or an absentee mother. At least Hillary had the dignity to run for president AFTER she had raised her daughter. Palin should refuse the nomination and do what she is taking credit for—being a mother of five.

Sorry for the double post.  Rob, I don’t know if this is a browser issue, or a site issue, but when I submit comments, it gives me an error.  Yet, when I happened to scroll down when I was going to resubmit for the third time, and I stumbled on the double post.  So essentially, inspite of the errors telling me something was wrong, it still shows my post.

Thanks.

In response to Joe Mormon’s post, I don’t necessarily think that being a mother should prevent her from running.

She may spend less time with her children as a result, but I would say that doesn’t mean she doesn’t value her children.  Not aborting a child with down syndrome certainly shows that she respects children, and life.

And if she helps make the world a better place for her children to grow up in, I would say thats the best gift a mother could possibly give her child in the first place.

Finally, I grew up with a father that was not around a lot because he had to spend extensive amounts of time working, and traveling the world for business. He was every bit as busy as a politician, but he still made time for me, and made sure I did my homework!  This should be no different.

Joe,

She is VP, not President.  I’m sure she understands her role as a mother and takes it seriously. Besides, the decision is hers not yours.  Yours is to vote for one or the other.

Jack:

She’s Dan Quayle for a New Century!

Dan Qualye came from a wealthy Indiana family, had everything handed to him on a silver spoon.  Quite the opposite life experience as Sarah Palin.

The fact that Jack thinks there’s any correlation between Palin and Quayle just provides the service of reminding us just what a bunch of ignorant fucks liberals really are.

Wing Chun:

Palin is the MOST qualified individual on either ticket for two reasons.

At least those two reasons!

The laugh a minute here is that Obama is the least experienced candidate and the liberals still are trying to explain to us why he is ready to lead.

The laugh a minute here is that Obama is the least experienced candidate and the liberals still are trying to explain to us why he is ready to lead.

Well, that is because only the Liberals seem to be adult enough to understand the difference between a leader and someone who might have experience.

We have talked about this several times with comparisons of failed presidents who had lots of experience, but failed as presidents and lots of examples where great presidents had little.

The fact of the matter is being a leader has nothing to do with experience.

The word leadership can refer to:

Those entities that perform one or more acts of leading.
The ability to affect human behavior so as to accomplish a mission.
Influencing a group of people to move towards its goal setting or goal achievement.

Uh oh.  Alaskan’s tells us about the real Palin:

http://www.reporternews.com/news/2008/aug/29/sarah-palin-the-joan-of-arc-of-alaska-politics/

Although fearless in choosing the difficult outsider’s path in politics, she remains relatively untested as a campaigner, a politician and as a two-year governor. And even as she drew increasing attention nationally as a potential vice presidential nominee in recent months, she has come under withering criticism at home from business-minded Republicans who consider her a misguided populist and an intellectual lightweight.

ohhh...that hurt.  But why would they say that?

As governor her focus has been on raising oil taxes—long suppressed by oil-friendly legislators—

Oh, tax big oil???  Never!

What else?

Critics call her naive, a panderer in her economic populism and reckless in her dealing with the vital oil industry.

But at a time when state coffers are spilling over with new oil revenues, Palin has remained popular with voters, recently pushing through a $1,200 per person “rebate” to help with high fuel costs.

Heh!  Sounds more like Obama than McCain.

F-ing hilarious.

..an FBI investigation into political corruption involving the oil industry and Republican legislator became public with surprise raids of legislative offices. As criminal indictments and convictions followed, Palin’s outsider status helped her maintain consistently sky-high approval ratings.

Although fearless in choosing the difficult outsider’s path in politics,

Wow, so she happen to come into office the same time the FBI was cleaning up the mess in Alaskan politics, and Republican corruption.

Sarah...not quite the conservative the Republicans thought:

* Opposes marriage equality, and is “a proud member of Feminists for life.”

* During her 2006 campaign, “Palin said she’s not out to judge anyone and has good friends who are gay, but that she supported the 1998 constitutional amendment.”

* She “doesn’t know” if people choose to be gay.

* Her response to the 2005 state Supreme Court ruling requiring equal access to legal benefits for same-sex couples was mixed. Unlike the previous administration, she did comply with the court’s order and signed same-sex partner benefits in law. On the other hand, she supports denying those benefits through a constitutional amendment, if that’s what the public wants.

* Positively, Palin’s first veto was used on legislation that would have barred the state from granting benefits to gay state employees and their partners. In effect, her veto granted State of Alaska benefits to same-sex couples. The veto occurred after Palin consulted with Alaska’s attorney general on the constitutionality of the legislation in the light of the 2005 ruling.

Wow, I am starting to like her more each day. Too bad the lying media is presenting her a staunch conservative.

Now, I may like some of her politics, but I certainly don’t think she should be one heartbeat away from the presidency.

And PP, did you notice how often her fellow republicans refer to “her”, “she”.??

And I still find it funny that an Obama supporter is citing Sarah’s lack of experience. Classic.

I just praised her positions that were on the liberal side.  I only questioned why FoxNews is calling her a staunch conservative. 

And I still find it funny that an Obama supporter is citing Sarah’s lack of experience. Classic.

There are a few nuances.  First, even Republicans are identifying the fact that Obama has been involved in understanding foreign policy for over 3 years and finding his position where as Sarah admits she knows nothing about the Iraq situation.  By her own admission she said that.

Republicans are scrambling saying that she can learn quickly under McCain.  So McCain has essentially shot himself on the foot on the experience argument.

This is so funny.  I can’t believe what a gift McCain has given us.

Ok, all of you conservatives who now have seen Palin grilled by the media tell me what you think of her now?
It seems to me that after providing a temporary boost of excitement to the GOP ticket, she has faded away and become somewhat of a liability.  In many interviews the media has really shown the American public who she is and her ignorance really shows through.  Since when did being a Maverick ever give you credentials?  She is a flip flopper (the bridge to nowhere, where she supported then withdrew her support) and she cannot even articulate words in a coherent fashion.  If you don’t believe me watch all of this unedited footage of her with the media.  McCain deserves better you all know that!  It’s too bad he had a real shot at winning this election against that damn socialist obama!  Ain’t no fedral guverment gonna tax us!  If ya don’t have healthcare, yer lazy, and you don’t deserve it.

Louie,
She is inexperienced on many issues. I think that is well-known. I am just sick of people saying she is stupid. As far as watching unedited footage of her, I have. I didn’t find any problem with her answers. I am not sure what you have a problem with. She is the one who is energizing the conservative base. As far as fading out, she is still drawing ginormous crowds, 60,000 at one event last week. Ronald Reagan was treated the exact same way as Palin, have you forgotten? McCain is not the one who excited conservatives. Most of us have been holding our noses at the idea of voting for him. We all respect him as a man, but he’s a RINO!! He is the one that will lose the election, not Palin.
