Sarah Palin

Honestly.
When John McCain was about to announce his running mate I really thought he was going to go with Romney or Liberman. Pawlenty maybe, and at a stretch Jindal or Crist.
But no, we got this woman.


Of course no one knew who she is and I was genuinely surprised.
She is the Governor of a Red State with only 3 electoral votes. She has no foreign policy experience, has never been on the national scene, and in under indictment. Now, not only has McCain lost his experience argument against Obama, now he has lost his celebrity argument. McCain had a hard time filling rooms with his appearences. Now he has people lined up around the block. Are people actually going to vote for him now just because this woman is his VP.
The campaign is now releasing full blown lies and are defending themselves with them. She was for the Bridge to Nowhere when she said she wasn't. The cook she said she fired still works for them. Her private jet was not sold on Ebay.
Now, the campaign is actually saying that Barack Obama called Sarah Palin a pig.
This is so rediculous that if I think about it too long I pretty sure my head will explode like that guy in Scanners. What I worry about, is that this woman could actually be our next Vice President. Even though Barack Obama has not been on the national scene that long, he has written two books on his life and the kitchen sink has come out since he started his campaign. We know nothing about this woman and what will come out after she gets the job. Do people realize that she supported having rape victims pay for there medical examinations. She goes to a church where they speak in tongues and has spoken from the pulpit within the last 4 months, and yet people give Obama crap because the Minister he knows said stupid crap from the pulpit. There is just so much crap that has come out in the last three weeks that it is ridiculous.
I haven't even mentioned that her 17 year old daughter is pregnant. Now, I know that kids need to be left out of the picture. But, I feel children are the best reflection of a person parenting, and when this woman is trying to show that we need abstinence-only education and yet her own daughter gets knocked up in high school. I find a problem with that.
This woman is not what America needs right now.
