I'm a little confused. 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 only 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 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches,
you're not a real Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, then 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 laywer 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 and educated!

Really, why does Wasilla have a different amount of people in it in every thread?
That's all you have to say about this truthful and common sensical post? Obviously the population has changed since she was mayor, so it depends on what year you are discussing this TINY town. I mean this place is REALLY tiny you've got high school principals who have been responsible for more people.

And yet it still requires more executive decisions than Barry has made since the day he was born.
Yeah, this also was in another thread and was written by Tim Downing.

Just getting caught up. Yeah right, you got sucked right in.
Sportcaster gets to make executive calls so she has to be more qualified.
I am so glad that John and Sarah uphold the morals and values they represent.
