This woman makes George W. Bush look like an intelligent man.
She has LESS experience than Obama, she is a liar, and she is an all around incompetent fool. If McCain is elected president and died (God Forbid) would we really want this moron to know the launch codes?

I am not a fan of Palin & like Bush even less, but many people like you grossly exaggerate the flaws of those you politically oppose.



People think Palin & Bush are unintelligent to a big degree because of their stereotypes. Bush's Texas accent sounds dumb to many people. And he certainly has a tangled tongue. But his problem has not been lack of intelligence as much as lack of wisdom. He has appointed people more for their loyalty than for their experience & knowledge.



Palin's cute, rural accent creates many of the same stereo types about her.



And Palin is no more of a liar than any other politician.



Just look at Chris Dodd & Barney Frank blaming the Republicans for the current economic crisis when they stood in the way of Republican's attempts at adding over site to Fanni May & Freddy Mac.





And I would rather RISK having an inexperienced Palin as president than GUARANTEE us having an inexperienced Obama as president.

Sarah Palin is somebody that Liberals and a few Republicans are terrified of. Why, by way of actuality, to boot the undeniable fact that she is a Republican, she took on the Republicans in her cabinet that she did no longer have confidence have been doing the excellent element for the persons of Alaska. She isn't an 'previous boy/lady' Republican who will pass alongside with the occasion and do subject concerns that she would not sense is efficient for the persons. She is a uncommon baby-kisser who does have confidence in working for the people that voted for her, in evaluation to lots of the politicians in Washington. in distinctive words, she is a danger to their way of doing subject concerns. Montana: have not you found out yet that Obama would not have a clue?

I could rant and rave about all the reasons why Sarah Palin should not only NOT win the American Vice Presidency but should also have her US citizenship revoked and be re-assigned to a real theocracy like in Saudi Arabia. I mean, judging by everything I’ve read so far:



Sarah Palin is a religious whackjob. As such, she is as superstitious and intellectually backward as any medieval peasant and as dangerous, both at home and abroad, as any terrorist.

Sarah Palin hates women who want to rise above the status of “brood mare” by taking some measure of control over their reproductive cycles.

Sarah Palin hates single people (especially single mothers), same-sex couples, and anyone else in a committed but unmarried relationship.

Sarah Palin hates children who don’t come from or remain in so-called traditional family structures.

Sarah Palin hates sex and anyone who is curious about it, enjoys it, or wants to share the facts surrounding it.

Sarah Palin is a liar and a thief who can’t directly answer simple, legitimate questions about her abilities, her past actions, and her understanding of world issues.

Sarah Palin is, simply, stupid. She thinks creationism is a peer to evolution in the realm of scientific theories. Indeed, she thinks the Earth is around 6,000 years old. She thinks living across the pond from Russia is a great quality to have in a world leader. She thinks the Founding Fathers wrote the Pledge of Allegiance. Actually, I should stop using “she thinks” because her religiosity actively prevents her from doing anything other than believing.

In short, Sarah Palin supports policies that benefit only the ever-shrinking percentage of Americans who look and behave just like she does (a little less than 50% and dropping, according to Alternatives to Marriage Project). Anyone who doesn’t fit her narrow mold is duty-bound, as a citizen of the US, to pay for those policies in the form of higher taxes, lack of social and financial stability, and lack of economic and intellectual opportunity. In other words, Sarah Palin would institutionally discriminate against the half of Americans who dare to live their lives according to their own reasonable set of values (the way the Founding Fathers envisioned), indenturing them to the half of Americans who toe her questionable moral line (the way the Taliban and Al-Quaeda might envision).

You have going to Huffingtonpost.com and reading the communi$t media too much. She is fine and very conservative and likes small government, which is great. She is eligible to run for president and Obama is not in my opinion. For this reason alone she is more qualified to run this country than Obama. Things start with the US Constitution and then one is allowed an opinion after that.

Because it's called freedom of choice.I don't question you about obama,Then why should you question others?

She is more qualified than Obama or Biden because she has more EXECUTIVE experience and she isn't full of BS.
