Palin Resuscitates Talking Points She Left Out in AlaskaPosted on Sep 14, 2008Missing from Republican VP hopeful Sarah Palin’s speeches during her recent homecoming visit to Alaska were two talking points she had used in heavy rotation before, but they were back in her script once she returned to talk to “lower 48” audiences, which, as Fox News (!) points out, may not be familiar with the relevant back stories.

This Palin love festival is a really bad Disney movie. I cant believe this country is willing to put a hockey mom with radio, television, and films experience across the table from Yeong Jong Il or Putin instead of a Harvard Law Graduate.(no offense to hockey moms). This is our country we are talking about, not some Disney movie. Hockey Moms maternally turn into Pitt Bulls when you talk about their kids. I dont think the maternal instinct kicks in when needed to make decisions about our country. There are many better female candidates for this position instead of Palin. This is a Circus and our country should be ashamed.

women are not so stupid as the media would like to protray us as: that we would vote for a woman just because it was a woman; nor do we like shopping at malls; the BIG CHANGE that both parties who are 1 in reality just “pretend” you have a “choice” to “fool” the public who are so stupid as to think that it is one or the other; both are bad; always have been; from Fed, to ST, to County, to City: they dictate the way it is going to be; you point of view is noted but means nothing; just like it has always been; what the CORP"S want: and the WEALTHY: just like the LAWS go their way only: with NO REGARD to the people who have no rights & aren’t even recognized as being humans: until you are a Corp THEN you are recognized & have some rights; aren’t YOU glad you live in this so called “democracy”?

I wish the media would press McLaim and Palin on what precisely they are going to reform. Palin had no meaningful answer when asked by Gibson. Regarding earmarks for AK, Palin told Gibson that getting a piece of the Federal budget is what mayors and governors are supposed to do. If that’s so, then why doesn’t the media ask McLaim the difference between what Ms. Palin says is her job, and what he defines as “pork”. What is the difference?
It’s funny, just one day before McLaim announced Palin as his VP, I told my wife that I might end up having to vote for him. But since naming Palin, his campaign has slid so deep into the dark side of politics, that no voter should reward it. I couldn’t possibly vote for him now. They’ve overplayed his heroism card; they run incredibly deceitful advertising designed to get free media exposure; they cry foul loud and hard over stupid things that have no basis (again to get free media exposure); and have brought an inexperienced woman onboard to pander to women, and to men who think from the wrong part of their bodies.
Although McLaim’s Hanoi Hilton story is touching, it’s amazing how no one in the media can point out that he was shot down because he flew deeper into enemy territory than he was supposed to. Maverick? Or stupid? I think his VP decision answers that question.
Now if only there was a candidate I could vote for.
