What? She said we're going to go to war with the state of Georgia? Wow! And did "ya" know that they kin actually SEE Russia from up thar in Alaska?! So that's pretty skeery, don't ya think? They might decide to shoot a nucular weapon over at us. Let's give her a break on Bush Doctrine....she didn't get to that chapter yet. That's next week.

Seriously, I'm watching the MSNBC replay of the real 9/11....I can only shake my head that this cocky beauty queen, deer in the headlights on this interview, could very likely be the leader of our nation some day.

There's a hurricane in the gulf of Mexico that could disrupt US gasoline refineries.

How is this related? Can someone tell us where our 4th largest oil imports come from?

Crude Oil and Total Petroleum Imports Top 15 Countries

Keep talking about the things that don't matter. It's all a guise to keep you distracted from reality.

THIS is the perfect opportunity to send OBAMA down there to sweet talk the crazy guy. I mean, really he's very confident it'll work, Obama....

IF you go look at Obama on utube he is saying he'll cut back on all that pesky defense system stuff....

They can nuke us, they can hit us with limited weapons. But to invade us? They do not have the logist capability. They never really did.

The U.S. needs to strengthen NATO because it "is the group that can be counted upon to defend one another in a very dangerous world today," Palin said.

She added that the U.S. must be "vigilant" against potential Russian aggression and she would support future "economic sanctions perhaps" against Moscow.

"It doesn't have to lead to war and it doesn't have to lead . . . to a Cold War, but economic sanctions, diplomatic pressure, again, counting on our allies to help us do that in this mission of keeping our eye on Russia and (Russian Prime Minister Vladimir) Putin and some of his desire to control, and to control much more than smaller democratic countries."

Putin's "mission, if it is to control energy supplies, also, coming from and through Russia, that's a dangerous position for our world to be in, if we were to allow that to happen," Palin said.


Palin wants to play hardball with Russia

Sounds like Bush's aides really worked on her...she's memorized all the RIGHT responses.

Wait, she's different. She's like, well, um, she's kinda, well...a messiah of sorts.

I really wish I could be drafted, but too many people already know I'm gay. God's work will have to wait.

That chick is crazy and ignorant (Ossetia and Abkhazia anyway historically were never pert of Georgia, only the Georgian Stalin made it so) and, yes, stalinist.
What should we await realistically from a former beauty queen ?

I really want to know what she has done, not in Alaska, but with other countries....
What has Obama done with other countries until his world tour?
