Have you ever been elected Governor of a state? Seems like her elevator did, in fact, go to the top floor.

I still don't get it- WHO can give an example of this person's brains? because she wears glasses?, because she was elected governor in a state with only two major cities? because she left the town of Wasilla in the red?

Seriously how does anyone believe Palin is intelligent? You have to be a class A slacker to not graduate from five colleges.

Thank god she isn't going to be elected. Thank God that the Republican Views will no longer be an issue. The hypocritical calling Obama a terrorist yet cannot take any criticism about themselves. Accusations only fly one way in the Republicans world.

Hunting for sport, is her choice. I oppose it but hey,whatever makes her happy.

Palin wants to take the polar bear off the endangered species list...why?
She and other Alaska elected officials fear a listing will cripple oil and gas development in prime polar bear habitat off the state's northern and northwestern coasts.

Due to climate change the polar bear is unable to survive for very long. The Federal government protected them. She wants to sue the Federal Govt. to lift their protection, for the sake of oil and gas.

Screw oil and gas, there are other places to find it. Leave the Polar Bear to live in peace.

Sooooooooooo True! Sarah is the one responsible for becoming a joke. She did it to herself by not being able to handle a simple interview. She did it to herself by just repeating rehearsed soundbites in the Debate. She did it to herself by becoming malicious on the stump. No one has to prove she has no brains...she does that herself.

I get my marching orders from babs. if she likes it I hate it. If she supports it I oppose it.
If she makes an argument, I understand innately that the counter argument is both true and supported by the sweet clean Lord Jesus Christ.
Babs is a horrible embodiment of all that is wrong with America.
Palin has taken stands that have killed lesser politicians careers and she has survived and thrived.

Palin represents common sense values that people like me have always held.

She is right on global warming, lowering taxes, drilling for oil, energy independence, healthcare, taxes, the supreme court (even if I can name more decisions than she can), the roll of government....I could go on but I think you get it.

She represents the values that many of us hold dear. One very important aspect of that is that She recognizes that the American Dream isn't a right. It is a goal to be worked for. She understands that the government should not be in the business of giving people houses. the role of government is to make the nation a place where business can succeed and create jobs that workers can fill and find their own version of the American dream.
I know this is going to make liberals roll their eyes because they think they have the market on smarts but this woman is very bright and has been successful repeatedly. She is now a novice on the national stage but she will grow into it and if (and it is a huge if) John McCain wins this election, in four years Palin is going to be a force to recon with.

that isnt true.


It is the typical sexist kind of thing we have come to expect from the political left. It represents the reality that while claiming to be the champion of women, liberals have just been using women to further their political goals of expanded government.

but it isnt true.

So, how does it feel to be a sexist? Isnt that the same thing as being a racist?

correction.... Republicans has stated that Barak Obama launched his political career from the living room of a terrorist.

That is factually correct.

or do you think Bill Ayers is a fine upstanding American?
