This Palin chick seems to be the darling of the media now..everywhere I look it's Palinmania. Everyone's exciting about this fluffball interview with her tonite on ABC.
Dare I say she's like a..a...celebrity!! A popular female celebrity!
Will McCain run an ad comparing her favorably with Britney Spears and Lindsey Lohan?
Just asking.

Under Bush the American economy now kowtows to our Arab overlords....
"Treasury tried to head off such concerns by having David McCormick, the undersecretary for international affairs, call foreign central banks and other overseas buyers of the companies' securities or debt to reassure them of the instruments' creditworthiness. Over the weekend, Treasury officials called sovereign-wealth funds in Abu Dhabi and elsewhere in the Middle East, assuring them that they were working on financial issues involving Fannie and Freddie, says an individual apprised of the conversations."
US Taxpayer money essentially goes to keep rich saud happy, the sauds in turn keep Islamic terrorists afloat, who in turn justify massive American military spending that guts the economy.
And the rich skim the fat off the top.

Former President Bill Clinton predicted Barack Obama will "win" this fall's election and "will win pretty handily.”
The two men chatted with reporters in a photo-op at Clinton's Harlem office before sitting down for a private lunch.
Clinton is scheduled to campaign for Obama in Florida later this month. According to aides, the former president will appear at a mix of fundraisers and campaign events on behalf of the Democratic ticket throughout the fall.
"We're putting him to work," said Obama.
Clinton said he’d "agreed to do a substantial number of things, whatever I'm asked to do.”
Obama smiled at Clinton's prediction that he would take the White House: "There you go, you can take it from the President of the United States. He knows a little something about politics."

Palin says "War with Russia? Could be...."
"When asked by Gibson if under the NATO treaty, the U.S. would have to go to war if Russia again invaded Georgia, Palin responded: "Perhaps so. I mean, that is the agreement when you are a NATO ally, is if another country is attacked, you're going to be expected to be called upon and help....'And we've got to keep an eye on Russia. For Russia to have exerted such pressure in terms of invading a smaller democratic country, unprovoked, is unacceptable,' she told ABC News' Charles Gibson in an exclusive interview."
So, is she going to push for Georgia to be part of NATO?? This is fucking madness....
- WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!********
- yeah I just heard that today. Hooray for more aggression!flashbender
- Ignorant agression is more like it, PU-LEEZE, as if war with Russia ends any way but nuclear...NONEIS

I can see it now - McCain gets elected, blunders into a war with Putin over Georgia, but the stress of running the country catches up to him and has a stroke on his 74th birthday, leaving a woman who a few years ago was mayor of a town of 5000 people holding the keys to the nukes. Way to f*cking go, America!

Sarah Palin is a "cocky wacko". I didn't say it.

smokin article by, of all people, Roger Ebert.
Roger Ebert on Sarah Palin: The American Idol candidate
"I think I might be able to explain some of Sarah Palin's appeal. She's the "American Idol" candidate. Consider. What defines an "American Idol" finalist? They're good-looking, work well on television, have a sunny personality, are fierce competitors, and so talented, why, they're darned near the real thing. There's a reason "American Idol" gets such high ratings. People identify with the contestants. They think, Hey, that could be me up there on that show!
My problem is, I don't want to be up there. I don't want a vice president who is darned near good enough. I want a vice president who is better, wiser, well-traveled, has met world leaders, who three months ago had an opinion on Iraq. Someone who doesn't repeat bald- faced lies about earmarks and the Bridge to Nowhere. Someone who doesn't appoint Alaskan politicians to "study" global warming, because, hello! It has been studied. The returns are convincing enough that John McCain and Barack Obama are darned near in agreement.
I would also want someone who didn't make a teeny little sneer when referring to "people who go to the Ivy League." When I was a teen I dreamed of going to Harvard, but my dad, an electrician, told me, "Boy, we don't have the money. Thank your lucky stars you were born in Urbana and can go to the University of Illinois right here in town." So I did, very happily. Although Palin gets laughs when she mentions the "elite" Ivy League, she sure did attend the heck out of college.
Five different schools in six years. What was that about?
And how can a politician her age have never have gone to Europe? My dad had died, my mom was working as a book-keeper and I had a job at the local newspaper when, at 19, I scraped together $240 for a charter flight to Europe. I had Arthur Frommer's $5 a Day under my arm, started in London, even rented a Vespa and drove in the traffic of Rome. A few years later, I was able to send my mom, along with the $15 a Day book.
You don't need to be a pointy-headed elitist to travel abroad. You need curiosity and a hunger to see the world. What kind of a person (who has the money) arrives at the age of 44 and has only been out of the country once, on an official tour to Iraq? Sarah Palin's travel record is that of a provincial, not someone who is equipped to deal with global issues.
But some people like that. She's never traveled to Europe, Asia, Africa, South America or Down Under? That makes her like them. She didn't go to Harvard? Good for her! There a lot of hockey moms who haven't seen London, but most of them would probably love to, if they had the dough. And they'd be proud if one of their kids won a scholarship to Harvard.
I trust the American people will see through Palin, and save the Republic in November. The most damning indictment against her is that she considered herself a good choice to be a heartbeat away. That shows bad judgment."

Palin on Russia...surely it's game over now. The US public surely can't fall for this.

i've been staying away from this thread and now i know why. this election is bringing out the worst in some people. this palin nonsense is bordering on misogyny and i'm really shocked at what some of you have written. venom. toxic venom on all sides. i'm also really shocked to read the following phrase on qbn: "charlie rangal is a typical nigger". how is this ok? ever? am i the only one offended here?
i have no more words. i won't wander in here again.
