OK, a governor of 670,000 people. That's less experience than a borough president in Queens, LOL.

Lieutenant, not lieutenant, so what. She barely qualifies as a governor at all.

Yawn

I'm a bit concerned with the McCain/Palin energy policy (especially in regard to drilling in the ANWR). Given the state of the environment these days I think it is important for us, as consumers to support 'green business.' For example, http://www.simplestop.net stops your postal junk mail and benefits the environment.

Did you know they tried to have a recall elction in Wasilla because she tried to have the librarian fired because she wouldn't promot creation,
More abuse of power from Republicans

thanks ok... Guliani called her Senator Palin just before saying "how dare they question her ability to serve while a mother" ... what an idiot

Glad to see that Yawn values experience. With McCain getting the nomination, he will have more options since experience is so important.

Too bad for Palin, the race has just begun.You started it all! We do not want a nursing mom in the white house. Again McCain's wrong judgement.Go OBAMA/BIDEN 08/12.God is with you.

might be bringing attention to all the reasons she actually lost that race for Lt. Governor.

Shows McCain's incredible lack of judgement... the last thing we need is another cowboy in the oval office...

Please somebody tell Palin that voters care about their country first and the well being of the largest group in AMerica( middle class) somebody please please buy Bush sorry McCain a clue because he really doesn't get it!!!
At no time did the Reps talk about their country, our country, people are tired of divisive politics. It's time for the Big "O" to unify our country and get everyone talking about how we as a country will succeed.
Palin , is an empty suit.....

Dear concerned citizens of America and mass media of the U.S.A.

As a concerned disabled American Veteran and American citizen, I consider it my duty and responsibility to address the following critical issues facing the voters of our Greatgrand nation, the United States of America [USA].

The citizens of the United States of America [USA] have the ultimate power and responsibility to elect the Right Ticket with the right joint "temperament, judgment, and statesmanship" to lead our nation as well as change our nation's present and future moral, political, economic, educational, health care, energy, military, and foundational soul.
In my firm professional, personal, and political opinion, the media should help the common voter to explore and discuss the following attributes of the present Republican and Democratic presidential slates:
1. Does the joint ticket have a calm, cool, and collected " temper and impulse" [Presidential Temperament]?
2. Does each ticket have sound and sustained "Judgment and Caliber"?
3. Does each ticket have a "presidential depth and degree" in regard to their purpose, policies, and positions?
4. Does each ticket have adequate, "understanding and knowledge" of workings around Washington"?
5. Does each ticket have enough "vigor, wisdom and Vision" for the future of our beloved Great-grand Nation?
6. Does each ticket possess enough joint foreign policy experience and ex-poser based on "American Values, Virtues, Vastness, and strong soul"?
7. Are their campaign talk, slogans, ads, plans, and programs based on facts and are they free of fear, fiction, frivolous labels, unfair attacks, negativity, and impulsivity?

If your answer to a majority of the above questions is yes, I suggest you vote for that ticket. As a Independent registered voter I have decided to vote for Obama-Biden ticket. I am sure they will protect our national security, Strong's, stamina and strong soul. Rebuild our nation from bottom up in all areas of need, OBAMA-BIDEN ticket will once again restore and rebuild our global standing with the use of maximum international humane diplomacy and minimal force if and when indicated.
Yours sincerely,

COL. A.M. Khajawall [Ret] MD., Forensic psychiatrist, Colonel, US-AR / MC Combat Stress Control[Ret], Disabled American Veteran and Iraq Freedom team.
PS: This nation will not buy into kitchen sink approah. We are getting deeper into internal and external holes thru these attack and world is laughing on us and enjoying our kitchen sink gimmics. I am sure GOP.RNC, FOX, RUSH, And McCains his surrogates will fail to dupe, decieve, and deprive USA its deserved leadership.

McCain and his surrogates have taken a Pitt Bull strategy. I am sure common people will see thru it and vote against it.

The full-scale assault on Sarah is now going into overdrive. The dems and the media will never be able to live with having the first female vice-president of the United States of America. They are kicking, screaming and belching fire, like a dragon being slain.

BIDEN'S A HAIR PLUGGED NEANDERTHAL PIG WHO IS SO INTIMIDATED BY PALIN THAT HE THINKS IF HE KEEPS BELITTLING THE FACT THAT SHE IS A GOVERNOR THAT PEOPLE MIGHT BELIEVE IT. AND THE OBAMA SUPPORTER WHO THINKS REPUBLICANS ARE PANDERING TO WOMEN? YEAH, WE'LL TAKE AN OBAMA SUPPORTER SERIOUSLY, ESPECIALLY ONE OF THE KOOL AID DRINKING COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO SWOON OVER HIM YET CAN'T NAME A SINGLE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF OBAMA'S - SURE, WE'LL TAKE THOSE KIDS REALL SERIOUSLY... NOT. OH YEAH--THER REASON THEY CAN'T NAME ANY IS CAUSE HE HAS NONE!

Please excuse the typo in my last message. I must admit I was a little excited...The full-scale assault on Sarah is now going into overdrive. The dems and the media will never be able to live with having the first female vice-president of the United States of America be a CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN. They are kicking, screaming and belching fire, like a dragon being slain.

It's funny to see all these liberals in a state of panic!

Joaquin;
It is not because she is female. It is because she is a CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN. I for one do not want someone in the White House who believes that the planet Earth is 20,000 years old.

I am sorry for blathering like an idiot here. I am just so frustrated with all of this. I know in my heart that we will lose when Obaman wins in November.

That's not my only source of frustration though.

I have just been fired and replaced by an unqualified black man who has 1/10the the experience I have. Just because he went to Yale and I didn't. They just want to kiss up to blacks now. It'll happen to you too.

It's "typical" of Joe Biden. Someone needs to remind him that he IS on the DemWit ticket this year! LOL!

So here we go again with all of the Dem's empty rhetoric about "change" and focus on domestic issues. Most Republicans and Independents will agree that there is definitely some change needed in our Govt - especially at the Executive and Legislative level. What has the Democratic led Congress and Senate done lately? Really, changing for changes sake isn't going to fix the problems we have in America - just the opposite - they'll raise taxes and cause our economy to decline further. After listening to her speech, I applaud Gov. Palin's methodical approach for energy independence and tackling some of the tougher domestic issues that we're facing today. And as to experience, she was a popular Mayor and a successful Chairwoman of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission while Mr. Obama was still just a community activist and Associate attorney with Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland.

Mike,

You are an ignorant fool.

Foodforthought.....

Contrary to what the DemWits believe, Obama will NOT win in November. He is already falling in the polls while McCain is gaining. Obama is only 13 projected electoral votes ahead of McCain and the swing states are now leaning to McCain. Obama is all "used" up. The media "darling" has let down the media and America. Remember, the GOP still has surpises up their sleeves. They mysterious tape of Michelle will be out for all to see in October. Obama, now flip flopped on the surge, among many other issues. The evangelicals and catholics are now behind McCain. Obama, does have the African American vote, not because they beleive in the issues, but mainly because he is a black man. Hang in there, don't give up. McCain/Palin is are headed to the White House.

Sorry about your job loss......hang tough!

McCain/Palin 08!
Country First!

Hey Yawn, Why don't you stop yawning and actually take a look at Alaska's budget. Does a borough in Queens have a annual budget of $5.6 Billion dollars? Look at her administration's performance record. There is more positive growth than not. I'm tired of uneducated dem's spouting spoon feed statistics. Do you homework.

David from texas is right. Very soon the American people will demand substantive answers about how the Dems plan on effecting their idea for "change". And we'll see that once the Dems pony up and provide us with their detailed plan - and not some catchy, feel good phrase - that it just won't hold water. But then again, that'll only matter to those who aren't subject to all the hype and understand the intricacies of the issues.

If Plain was such a poor choice on the part of Mccain, why are the Dem flackies who post all over the internet in such a snit? Shouldn't they simply be happy and sit smugly back and watch the impending electoral disaster for the Reps? Instead, we have folks like "Lisa" attempting to start yet another false rumor about Palin. Why do the Dems fear Palin so much? Food for thought. Well, at least for those who aren't "Stepford wives for Obama."

He must have been thinking of that blind black guy in NY who stepped in for Spitzer, who had the hookers. Then we found out the blind guy too, had been cheating on his wife and doing drugs.....great Lt. Gov in NY.
Palin is in charge of our largest state, which now, I feel like visiting, and I bet tourism will be up too. She has to be up on all that and the cruise industry and far more than the community organizer has had to be in charge of.
McCAIN/PALIN ALL THE WAY

Thanks to Capt. Bush, our ship has hit an iceberg and is taking on water. There is no room in the life boats for women and children because those seats are already occupied by Republican men.

McCain/Palin don't have a chance. The Hope 'N' Change World Tour '08 clinched it for Obama/Biden.

The best response to Governor Palin's snide mockery would be silence. Ignore her until she says something substantive to say about Republican policy on significant issues. To me, this self-styled "pit bull with lipstick" is still in the chihauhau league.

Hey Yawn, Why don't you stop yawning and actually take a look at Alaska's budget. Does a borough in Queens have a annual budget of $5.6 Billion dollars? Look at her administration's performance record. There is more positive growth than not. I'm tired of uneducated dem's spouting spoon feed statistics. Do you homework.

Posted by: Lookatthefacts | Sep 4, 2008 6:58:49 PM
========================================

Hey Lookatthefacts,

Go ahead and look up the budget of Queens and then wake up.

The budget for NYC, for which Queens is a part, exceeds the budget of over 48 nations, and easily surpasses the budget of 32 states, including the soon to be wastelands of Alaska. Drill baby, drill (a hole in your head, you need one more...)

I hope everyone sees where her priorities are and it isn't her family or her 18 year old daughter would not have left herself get pregnant to a boy that does not want children and she also has a special needs child and whose resposibility of raising this child is going to be the next couple months the mother on the campaign trail . This woman is a joke from the work go and a liar just to get someone fired.ex beauty queen my 12 year old has more experience than her at least he was president of his class for 2 yearsnot 20 months

Let's see now:
Biden can't tell the difference
between a battalion and a brigade!
Biden can't tell the difference between
a Governor and a Lieutenant Governor!
Biden was against the successful
"troop surge" in Iraq!
Biden wanted to divide Iraq up into
three sections, Shia, Sunni, and Kurd!
Proof he doesn't know what he's talking
about and has bad judgement!

Biden id too dishonest person.

well, that's just a little "mean-spirited" and sarcastic now isn't it?

Hey did you guys listen to Rush today? He exposed Biden's lies with his own video/words! LOL!

Gag me.

When Obama, Biden, the Clintons, the Kerry's, the Kennedy's and all the others say "the American People" it feels condescending, however, when I hear it from Palin and McCain, "the American People", I feel proud, like we should about this country!

Now, it's like night and day with the choice. We have REAL HOPE of REAL CHANGE with McCain/Palin!!!!!! Perhaps the Messiah was really prophesizing about the election!

DNC -stands for Dishonest National Committee(AKA Democratic National Committee).

I WONDER WHAT IS WRONG WITH DIVIDING IRAQ UP INTO REGIONS OR AREAS OR STATES. IT SEEMS TO WORK IN CANADA AND THE USA LET THE PEOPLE VOTE ON WHAT AREA THEY WANT TO LIVE IN THE ONE WITH THE MOST VOTES IS WHERE THAT SO CALLED MUSLEM SECT WILL LIVE SHEITES SURBES , SUNNIES. AND THEN LET THEM RULE THEMSELVES RIGHT NOW NO ONE IS IN CHARGE OF THE WHOLE DAMM COUNTRY.

Yawn, you twisted the facts again. A "borough of queens" is not NYC. Based on your argument Mr. O wouldn't be qualified either. (for that matter neither would the former gov or Arkansas)

in regard to the ethics probe underway in AK. Her defense is that her staff did this stuff on thier own. So if she is lying she is guilty of abuse of power, if she is telling the truth, exactly what kind of executive is she that her staff would so blatantly break rules and laws? Also, blaming yoru staff is a little chickensh*t in my opinion, if you are in charge, the buck stops with you.

Why should I vote for her?

* She was only picked because she is a woman.

* She doesn't put her children first

* She's not qualified for this job - and McCain is old

I'm going with the others - I'm writing in Romney.

Biden what a great choice. Real change?

Independent for Palin/McCain

Could be that Old Joe OBiden tried to make a subliminal dig on Sarah Palin, maybe even lowered himself to a sexist remark...

After all, Obama didn't have to pick a woman to be his lieutenant. Old Joe Obiden was right there to jump at his command.

But, more than likely, Old Joe OBiden just had a senior moment.

Anybody But Obama...

And, perhaps someone could give the retired Colonel something more than the same diatribe to copy and paste every day.

I am also disabled, but I can at least come up more than a reprint from blog to blog.

Anybody But Obama...

Biden? Is he still on the ticket?

I was sure he would be Vince Fostered by now and replaced by Hitlery.

Surely he is fixing to have a debilitating illness.

Obammy has got to be having 2nd thoughts.

Palin/McCain 08

Foodforthought is a racist conservative!

Foodforthought, I don't think the color of your replacements skin had anything to do with you losing your job, it appears it would be that negative attitude that you display. I can see why you voting for McCain/Palin.

Biden been drinking or something? He's sort of like the Democrat's Dan Quayle.

And...why do these Democrat women who supported Hillary think that the universe revolves around them and every political decision is a ploy to get their votes?

I guess the only women allowed to make any history are...well, just Hillary. I hope Obama sticks with Biden, if for no other reason I don't have to re-live the media re-hashing Whitewater, travelgate, various other scandals and suspicious deaths again.

Rose Szymanski:
Dividing Iraq into three separate
sections would allow the Iranian's
to walk in and control the country!
Giving Iran more influence and control
in the middle east is not smart policy
and obviously not in our best interests!

I voted for McCain in the 2000 primary. All of you McCain '08 supporters are the same dummys that voted for Dubya in 2000 over McCain. Thanks for bending the country over for big oil and Haliburton. McCain of '08 has turned into Dubya junior. I am sorry but my own party has ruined this country. Palin sounded like a whinny B*tch last night, she openly lied about that bridge to nowhere money and obviously needed heavy coaching to get through that pathetic tirade.
I feel sorry for everyone that is supporting McCain out of fear and not becuase he will help make America better.
I do not like Obama, he will most likely raise our taxes, but the hens will come home to roost sometime. I pay my bills this country needs to pay its bills. The country is being destroyed by our out of control defecit. And guess what, America is for sale, how many American companies are now owned by some foreign corporation (all of you Bud drinking fools). McCain appears to be willing to continue with the same bad economic policies of the current administration.
And in case you can't figure this out, God is not going to magically fix our problems. Keep praying, but pray for the right reasons. I can't believe that some of you idoits prayed for rain in Denver. God apparently decided to send rain to Louisiana instead, and now there are 3 more hurricanes coming. Maybe we can start taxing those mega churches, I am sure God won't mind, he can take care of himself.
For the future of America vote for Obama, he is the lesser of the two evils.
Also, Frak you Sarah Palin, my father was a community organizer a small business owner and he helped get a much needed hospital built, you stuck up piece of work.

Hey foodforthought,

Why don't you start focusing on how now that you're unemployed, be able to afford FOOD FOR YOUR THOUGHTS !(PUN INTENDED) Thanks to this fallen economy, you're gonna need more than just luck in finding a job. I hope you vote for Mccain-Palin and win so that your "sorry excuse for a true american ass" stays hungry,unemployed and ashamed of your despicable choice for change. If you only knew that ignorant bigots like yourself will never prosper in this great nation of diversity.I can go on and on but ignorance is bliss isn't foodforthought ?

Latina For
Obama-Biden 2008-2016

As a law student at Syracuse, Biden had plagiarized a law review article , In September 1987, his campaign ran into trouble when he plagiarized a speech by Neil Kinnock, at least we can always tell when he speaks his mind

Speaking about Obama: the Presidency should not be a place for "on the job training"
When asked again about his statement during the debate he said " I stand by the statement"

Biden - "John McCain is a personal friend, a great friend and I would be honored to run with or against John McCain. "

"There’s a gigantic difference between John McCain and Barack Obama and between me and I suspect my vice presidential opponent,” Biden said.

“She’s good-looking,” he quipped.

Obama shows off his great judgement with his VP choice

listen up repugs when biden tears palin apart on foreign policy dont go crying sexisim because you know the pitbull with lipstick will hahah cant wait for the debates biden will crush that little girl

Obama is the only 3rd Black man in the
senate,since most of the Caucasians
dominate in the Senate,Congress and
So,to those A_ _ Holes out there from
GOP,who helped wrecked this country
and then hire an eye candy like Palin
to work in the oval office,will only
create more hellhole and will buried
all of us six feet under the ground.

Bushit No Policy,more POW Card and
9/11 drama is the only agenda they can
offer to the table,when the people were starving,jobless was rising and more people will end up being homeless.

These agent of Satan are the abominations and taking over the mind of
every individual to divide us and mislead us in the gates of Hell!

Righteous people is what we needed.

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

Palin was a reformer,according to those
who praised her like a God and a sex
kitten,but she left her tiny town of
Wasilla with a whooping $ 27 million
in debt,when she inherit the town from
the previous Gov. with balance budget.

The GOP claims,she has a platform to help the parents of those children with
Down syndrome,which according to her is
a friend in the White House.

She campaign this morning with Ol' Mc
in Wisconsin and there you are,she was spending more reading than talking to the people,how she can manage to talk with other diplomats in times of crisis,when here you are,more of reading and flipping pages from the recycled speeches is all that she can do.fooling herself infront of the crowd.

I think pitbull is more smarter than this woman.

If Biden was plagiarized some speeches
from law review,how did Palin got hired
within 15 minutes by McCain.

Is that judgement?

Oh.by the way according to Ol' Mc,he is an agent of change,Yes folks he is an agent of change.

7 houses that he didn't know,the $35,000
dress from Cindy will make our lives much better.

It's painful to know that there are so many angry liberals out there acting as if someone has just stolen their pacifier. I you know the meaning of "liberal" and "socialist", and you still believe in them, then you're not the sharpest knife in the drawer.... the only thing that socialists and liberals have to offer every one of their followers is "an equal distribution of misery".

The next morning after Palin gave her speech, Biden was angry.
You can tell from his face on the interview by GMA.
Maybe they were surprised by her speech.

I haven't respected McCain since I found out he was in bed with the Keating Five. John McCain was bought and paid for by Keating. Keating poured $112,000 into McCain's political campaigns. Keating was McCain's personal friend. He threw fund raisers for Mccain. He made a sweet shopping-center investment deal for McCain's and father-in-law, Jim Hensley.

Keating flew McCain and his family around the country in his private jets. Time after time, he put McCain up for serene, private vacations at his vast, palatial spa in the Bahamas.

Then the lid came off, and McCain was shunned by many of his Washington colleagues. McCain became a pariah and an outcast. So McCain had to remake his image. So he began calling himself a maverick.

A person's character has been established long before his fifties. McCain is the same man today as he was in the 80's -- a man who would sell out his country for his own interests. We don't need another president who makes his family and friends richer while our country goes down the drain.

I watched both conventions and witnessed history.

DON'T FORGET --- OBAMA ANNOUNCED BIDEN AS OUR FUTURE "PRESIDENT"!

Barack Hussein Obama is smart and has a great personality but he is not believable and cannot be trusted. Obama "HOPES" we won't notice how many times he has "CHANGED" his mind. He has based his entire campaign on lies. He has too many ties to terrorists and anti-Americans (Ayers, Rezko, Said, Farrakhan, Pfleger, Wright ['God Damn America'], etc.). If you are the leader of a country --- or a business for that matter, there are no "present" votes --- That's how Obama voted most of the time. He worked 142 days in the Senate and spent the rest of the time running for president. Obama will bankrupt America --- especially with his capital gains taxes. His death tax will hurt our children and grandchildren. No one is experienced on ALL issues; however, he is not experienced enough ON ANY ISSUE to run this country. Obama is unqualified and unfit to become Commander-In-Chief. In fact, his association with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, among others, would prevent him from getting the security clearance needed to enter the military as a private. HE HAS NEVER SERVED OUR COUNTRY! How much money was spent in Denver? His "Greek Temple" is a joke. Unemployment is down and he wants to put on a Hollywood show! NO-BAMA!

Joe Biden does have political experience. If Obama wins, he will be the puppet and Biden the puppeteer (vie Bush/Cheney). The only difference is that Biden doesn't know when to shut his mouth or turn on his filter! In the debates, Biden himself said Obama was not prepared to be President and that it wasn't a position to "test drive". Biden was right --- we do not need a president in training! Obama knew how his own colleagues felt about his inexperience.

The Honorable John McCain has worked for our country for all of his adult life. He brings years of experience. He has proven he loves our country enough to die for us! John McCain is a Hero and true American Patriot. He has shown his integrity. He is genuine --- A man that I trust. As for his choice of Sarah Palin, she has a lot of good points herself. As one Proud American, he gets my vote!

Sarah Palin is smart, accomplished, believable and likable. She brings a breath of fresh air and offers change we can believe in. She has more executive and leadership experience than any candidate. She is governor of our largest state. She crossed party lines to do what was right for Alaska and will do the same for the United States of America! PALIN IS A STRONG COMBINATION OF GRACE AND STRENGTH. I have no qualms about stating that SOME DAY, Sarah Palin will most assuredly be the first woman President of the United States!

COUNTRY FIRST! THE HONORABLE JOHN McCAIN IN 2008 !

Biden is a Jr. Senator. Oops, no that's his running mate who thinks he's ready to be president after 144 days in the Senate. These two are tweedle dee and tweedle dumb.

Somehow, early on, I knew this was going to be a watershed year. The whacked out DNC, the "unwise" Superdelegates, the phony soundbite rock star, and the major bias of the MSM (a couple at least), and now this surprise candidate that most people had never heard of, have contributed to the biggest circus ever in political conventions. Imagine if Sarah Palin were the Governor of any of the rest of the 50 (or is it 57?) states, would that candidate be qualified? If a "community organizer" is qualified, I say a pit bull wearing lipstick is equally qualified. What a delightful surprise!

After the most qualified Democrat candidate (who happens to be a female) was not wanted by the Super DNC, we now have another smart and qualified woman who has shown how to lead. And she has not been in Washington for 36 years, or even just a little more than three. McCain shows that he is determined to "change" Washington, and I believe he and Palin can do it! Let's see how smart the voters are this time. McCain and Palin can get us well on the road to energy independence, correct the financial bankruptcy we are falling into, and keep us strong and stable in world relationships. We need strong and experienced leaders right now.

Integrity, Purpose, Service...

McCain/Palin '08

All I can say, is that when I read through all these comments, it's clear that Democrats spew way more hatred than Republicans, whom they are always accusing of that very thing.

Obama has proven he he can *talk* with the best of them. That won't get my vote this November however. In a country where murderer's are turned loose on a technicality, Gov. Palin is *Saint* Sarah compared to Mr. Obama. Sorry Barrack (spelling) my vote goes to BIG JOHN
