Sarah Palin, July 2008: I don't even know what the Vice President does
By SilentPatriot Thursday Aug 28, 2008 5:15pm
Republican VP candidate and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin told Larry Kudlow less than two months ago that she can't answer whether or not she would accept the VP offer because she has no idea what the Vice President does.

"As for that VP talk all the time, I’ll tell you, I still can’t answer that question until somebody answers for me what is it exactly that the VP does everyday?"
Do we really need someone like this a heartbeat away from the Presidency? Especially given that McCain turned 72 today? Especially someone under investigation for abuse of power less than two years into office? That really is more of the same.
One dKos commenter answers Sarah's question:
- Leaves undisclosed location for the White House.
- Tells the President what to do.
- Orders Chief of Staff to obstruct a series of investigations.
- Snarls a few times.
- Returns to undisclosed location.
Heh.

i think she's great.
MCCAIN HAS DECIDED TO TRY TO MAKE A FARCE OF OBAMA'S "LIMITED" EXPERIENCE BY THROWING IN SOMEONE WITH "NO EXPERIENCE"
Palin's clean-hands reputation has come into question with an investigation recently launched by a legislative panel into whether she dismissed Alaska's public safety commissioner because he would not fire her former brother-in-law as a state trooper. Trooper Mike Wooten went through a messy divorce from Palin's sister.
The governor denied orchestrating the dozens of telephone calls made by her husband and members of her administration to Wooten's bosses. She says she welcomes the investigation: "Hold me accountable."
CAN EVEN CONTROL HER HUSBAND AND THE COPS IN A BUMF""" TOWN of 6000
You obviously don't need to know ANYTHING except how to use a pen and rubber stamp to be a modern day neoRepublican President.
Is she a, ..... maroon? How else would one categorize someone that is 44 and doesn't realize what the VP of the country does when she is a governor of a state. This is either stupid from a platform high on the mountain, or....
damn. I can't think of any "or's" With the exception of the one she doesn't have on the canoe up a particular creek. I would guess that somehow her problems with emails and firings are going to be little ones now that she has opened her brain for dissection.
Sure -- you think she sucks.
Anyone here would be a superior pres or vice pres.
It's the system that sucks.
Tootsie Palin
The con party is the modern day keystone cops.
What would Jesus say about this photo?

hopefully she solidifies Hillary Clinton's supporters behind Obama.
NOTE TO SARAH........ ask Biden in a couple years, if you are polite he'll even let you tour the WhiteHouse, and get President OBAMA's autograph!!!
She's Dan Quayle with two XX chromosomes.

It really does. Bit time.
They forgot one - take a friend hunting and shoot him in the face.
The formal powers and role of the vice president are limited by the Constitution to becoming President in the event of the death or resignation of the President and acting as the presiding officer of the U.S. Senate. As President of the Senate, the Vice President has two primary duties: to cast a vote in the event of a Senate deadlock and to preside over and certify the official vote count of the U.S. Electoral College.
The informal roles and functions of the Vice President depend on the specific relationship between the President and the Vice President, but often include drafter and spokesperson for the administration's policy, as an adviser to the president, as Chairman of the Board of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), as a Member of the board of the Smithsonian Institution, and as a symbol of American concern or support.
Under McCain, I assume Palin will be responsible mainly for laundry and house cleaning. It's hard to believe a rational woman would accept this slot under a man who thinks Roe vs. Wade should be overturned and supports the global gag rule (which bars foreign family planning organizations from receiving U.S. funds if the group in any way advises clients on abortion as an option or advocates for legal abortion - even when using their own funds).
McCain is an antagonist of sensible family planning and effective sex education. In 2005, he voted "no" on a $100-million allocation for preventive health care services targeted at reducing unintended pregnancies, particularly teen pregnancies. In 2006, he voted against funding for comprehensive, medically accurate sex education for teens. These are women's issues, and he's a fundamentalist - fundamentally wrong.

Hooker Palin
Hey honey, why don't you come up and see me sometime.
Sadly, she'd still be better than Bush.
I wish to thank McGrumpy and his staff for picking this VP choice...I assume....you taught her to spell "Potato"....with the E on the end. Start packing GW and DC and repubs that have sucked off us taxpayers long ENOUGH.
McCain: "I'll see your negro, and raise you a vagina!"
She need not worry.
The lobbyists will tell her what to do.
I've voted for a Democrat since the early 50s.
But with McCain's pick of Gov. Palin a women
who is against every thing I believe in & who
will attract the Hillary gals I think it will be a swell
choice for me. So she is a dimwit who doesn't
know a thing about the economy & foreign policy.
In my pea brain along with stupid women across our
great nation she will lead us to a McCain victory.
God bless Palin & God bless the United States of America.
Wow- that's what a Moose-fed Gal looks like I guess.
Hoo Ha! VP hottie! So much for "family values".
Yeah but she's a HOCKEY MOM.
Oh the debates were going to be good.. but now!
OCTOBER SECOND, people. Vice-presidential debate.
Biden's going to make mincemeat outta her.

If you're in need of something to whack off to ...
Seriously, the jokes just write themselves when it comes to the repubs and their pathetic candidates. This next week should be very entertaining.
Obama/Biden all the way!
Give the Lady a break guys, She does know a LOT about Change, When you have 5 kids (3 more than necessary IMHO) you get to do a lot of changing.
Do I think we need another airhead in line for the Oval Office (or Offal Orifice) not on you life. She says she doesn't know what the second in line to the highest office in the land does?
(sigh)

Jon Stewart should have some entertaining commentary I'm sure ... can't wait!
Marvin El Canucki @ 23:
Never mind -- *anything* is better than Bush.
Just saying in any other industrialized nation say,.. Canada she would still be on her maternity leave!!
"Ms. Palin, we only have one question. If need be, do you think that you are capable of shooting a elderly personal friend in the face?"
"Certainly, Karl, any day of the week -- and I would do it in a Godly manner. I've been shooting things since I was a wee girl."
it's like a dream come true
nepotism, beauty queen, younger than Obama, ZERO national or foreign policy experience, the hits just keep coming!!
I'll bet she dosen't know much about anything.
♠♠...Bangkok Bob...♠♠ @ 25:
Yeah, but the crackers love their tits and arse more than they love Jesus.
Noah: The VP is also typically on the National Security Council.
Which in this case, and at this point in time, is rather terrifying, actually.
Has she been fitted for a man-sized safe yet? ...or woman-sized, for that matter...
This is a shitty way to wake up. When i went to bed five or six hours ago I was a happy guy who just got done celebrating with my Ex-Pat friends over the great night of Obama.
Now i wake up to this nonsense.
Gaahhhhh!!!
Republican VP nominee said that the GOP has no plan for the Iraq War?
The GOP agenda to ramp up domestic supplies of energy is the only way that we are going to become energy independent, the only way that we are going to become a more secure nation. And I say this, of course, knowing the situation we are in right now — at war, not knowing what the plan is to ever end the war we are engaged in, understanding that Americans are seeking solutions and are seeking resolution in this war effort. So energy supplies and being able to produce and supply domestically is going to be a big part of that. And the GOP agenda is the right agenda in that respect, but the GOP is going to have to prove to Americans in following weeks that we can safely, responsibly and ethically develop these resources. That, of course, has been a problem for the GOP. And a problem up here in Alaska. We have state lawmakers serving time in prison right now... other lawmakers whom the FBI is probing right now... because they have been found, some, to be corrupt in oil and gas issues, having taken bribes. That does not bode well for the GOP. And that's gotta change.

Oh this is awesome! This is exactly the kind of video clip that the Republicans would play over and over and over if a Democrat said it. So let's get to it, guys. The idiot masses will lap this up.
The Obama campaign needs to bombarded with the clip of Palin saying "What is it exactly that the VP does every day?" so that they get on top of this early, run the ad in key swing states, and define her as an utterly clueless bimbo. The MSM are still saying this is tie and are taking it easy on them.
How could you forget that most important Veep function ..
6) Sleep through emergency cabinet meetings....
http://hitsusa.com/blog/241/cheney-sleeping/
I mean.. think about it.. Without Lieberman, what are McCain's NSC meetings going to look like? Who's going to tell him the difference between shia and sunni? Palin sure isn't.
Guys,
Go for what you want: a better America.
Don't vote for what is served up to you.
Another VP duty: returning to your coffin before sunrise, so you can arise at nightfall to suck the blood of puppies and kittens.

The next President of Vice
Wow, I guess she really is the perfect Republican candidate.
well, in light of her testimony, the huge chair is great symbolism. a big shoe wouldve also been accepted.
One word: "Gravitas."
I can picture her in a debate w/Biden. She'll use the Faux/Limpbaugh/Falafel Boy tactics of outscreaming and outyelling him, then have her minions cut his mic if that doesn't work.
She's got nothing.
It appears she lacks one other thing, political temperament. You know, not openly admitting that you're a potential VP candidate that doesn't know what a VP does.
Jo @ 14:
Just 'cause she's a woman doesn't mean she's a hooker.
Chuck @ 7:
Hmmm..nice...family values....reminds me of my ex, who cured me of liking women with conventional good looks. My ex turned into a batshit fundamentalist who thought that the kid needed lotsa beatings. We got the hell outta there and the court said okay after many thousands of dollars.
WTF!!!??? This Sarah Palin business is really bad craziness - something really stinks but I don't know what it is yet.
You can be sure Palin would have been a hit at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
A Great VP Pick.
Leaves undisclosed location for the White House.
Tells the President what to do.
Orders Chief of Staff to obstruct a series of investigations.
Snarls a few times.
Returns to undisclosed location.

Good for you, Mick. It's not often a responsible man gets custody over a batshit crazy woman. (Note the words "batshit crazy." I do NOT intend this as a comment on sane women.)
AndrewK @ 49:
Admittedly a VP isn't supposed to do much once the campaign is over but you don't admit you don't know what the VP does do.
Jack Cafferty is pwning Stephen Hayes. He just said he's had a shitload of e-mails from people in utter befuddlement over her selection, and he asked Hayes who's more qualified to anwser the phone at 3 AM? Biden or Palin? Hayes couldn't answer.
If played right, Obama and Biden can effectively destroy McCain this week. But they must ran ads showing her ignorance and extreme righ-wing views.
So what does Annie Oakley bring to the table? I understand she is supposed to energize the base, but aren't conservative women supposed to stay home with the 4mo old? When we had a 4mo in the house, all we thought about was getting an extra hour of sleep. I can't imagine running for VP with a special needs child that young.
So I think it comes down to plumbing. They think that because she has a vagina, she should attract voters with vaginas. This may be the stupidest nomination I have ever seen. I don't think there is a single independent woman who would fall for this. Is this what McSame thinks of women (and men for that matter)?
There's something that hasn't been mentioned yet but seems really relevant to me. Palin is the governor of a state with an eternal budget surplus provided by oil revenue. Alaska gives out checks http://www.ehow.com/how_2307547_get-dividend-payment-alaska.html?ref=fue... to all residents every year, has no sales tax, no income tax. It may be GOP paradise, but it's not reality. Anyone can run a state that has its own Dilithium Express Card.

JAFO @ 47:
Gravid?
Sarah Palin seems like a lovely woman and a little more moderate than McCain. On the surface, it makes a little sense considering her reputation as a reformer in Alaska, but she has even less national experience than Obama. Making matters even worse is how old John McCain is and how she'd have to succeed him if God forbid something happened to him. The lack of foreign policy experience particularly hurts her and she's sure to get creamed in the VP debate by Biden. At least Obama has proven more apt to acquire some knowledge through his overseas tour. The women's appeal thing is also rather flimsy considering she herself slammed Hillary for complaining to the media about her alleged unfair treatment during the Democratic primary. I've long embraced Obama since the beginning, but this really looks to diminish McCain's chances even further.
Palin claimed she stood up to big oil.
By letting them drill more in her state? Way to stand up to big oil.
The Pale Scot @ 59:
Well sure, but even then you can do it differently. Consider that other oil-rich bit of the north over in Norway. They still do have sales tax. And income tax. Instead they have great welfare and schools, but so do their neighbors.. mostly they save it up for a rainy day..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Petroleum_Fund_of_Norway
Fall @ 67:
She looks better than that trannie.
I wonder if she knows John McCain was a POW? How will she deal with John bringing this up every time she wants to meet with him and he keeps repeating the same POW story over and over and over and over again. But on the other hand, she can keep telling John about the horror of coming in 2nd in the Miss Alaska Beauty Contest.
I guess that this clinches our reputation as being a banana republic. A banana republic with nukes and a couple of fundamentalist dipshits in charge when they steal this one. Now I am definitely going to volunteer to be a Democratic gopher in some capacity. If Obama hasn't convinced me, Palin has. Keep her outta our Whitehouse.
Make no mistake. If McCain becomes President, his VP will be President at some point. If even for a day or so during some likely medical procedure – it's not a stretch to imagine that a 70+ year old man with a history of cancer and rapidly declining memory will have a few hospital stays in the next four years.
More probably she will become defacto President as McCain slides deeper and deeper into his "senior moments".
I don't know that much about her – I'm sure I'm not alone in that, which says a lot right there. But, certainly her inexperience makes her an easy puppet for the same lobbyists and corporate interests that have been pulling Bush's strings for the past eight years.
Mick Piobr @ 50:
Sure you do. You know exactly what it is that stinks. Your instincts are right on, you just hate to admit it on a national scale.

you suck at photoshop. or at least at recognizing it.
shamefull display of sexism in here.
kometes @ 58:
Yes.
YEAH BABY! Like Cafferty just said, the old geezer picking little miss Wasilla is Christmas for democrats!!!
I can't believe it, I actually just opened a bottle of Prosecco and started celebrating with some friends. Barack Obama was just ELECTED PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!!!!!! WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO :>
Heheeee they thought we'd buy some opportunistic, white-trash, small-town beauty queen airhead bimbo houswife with a bazooka in one hand, a baby in the other and a grizzly bear shawl??? And she's supposed to be one irregular, melanoma riddled heartbeat away from being the leader of the free world???
All I can say is THANK YOU OLD JOHN and neo-con halfwits, you just made it Christmas, wrapped up the white house and gifted it to us two months early!!! January 2009 OBAMA-BIDEN administration here we come!!!!!!!
I'm so happy :>
Shoot a guy in the face with buckshot.
Memo to Democrats--Make an ad that revolves around this tape. Repeat.
You don't need to know Sarah, since you never will be VP
Clearly, John McBush selected Sara Palin because she is the same height as him.
At 5'7", John has the little man complex. By choosing a woman of average height who played point guard for her high school basketball team (point guard is the shortest position in basketball) he was assured that his VP would not tower over him when they appear together.
Had he gone with any of the other potential picks he would have looked like a miserable, dwarf circus clown standing next to the Grand Ringmaster. Not a good visual.
@73 Alexdem;
"Gop paradise" and "not Reality" are the qualifiers, I bet Alaska pulls in a much larger amount per capita than Norway; and really, 'save for a rainy day" Alaska!!?? Ted would end up giving Bill Gates a run if they tried that.
Nobody's ever heard of a Dilithium Express Card? Hmmm..
JudyLou @ 48:
LOL ... this would be a good SNL skit.
Chuck @ 7:
OK, obviously that's a fake, but there must be some photos from her beauty contest days. 'didn't see any at Google images.

Wonder if Johnny Mac is having any regrets tonight about his VP selection ... wonder if he even remembers ...
roooth @ 78:
I do? I dunno. Butter my but and call me a biscuit - I cannot conceive of the why they chose this....?
I hope she's not indicted before the election as McCain should keep Joe Lieberman on stand by. Gov. Palin is being investigated for a crime she helped do. yes it's the Alaska officials again. What's funny is Palin said she didn't know what a VP does and in an interview she said Hillary wasn't strong enough even with all the qualifications for the Office of President. She said that wasn't a place for a woman. Now I wonder how she will turn that statement around as she was picked as VP and most like could be President seeing John McCain is in poor health. Just think we could have a Female President who's only qualifications is that of a Beauty Queen. The World Leaders are getting a good laugh with this one. No more War as the US President Palin will walk the run way in her bathing suit in hopes of reaching an agreement. She doesn't know anything about the Middle East or Foreign Affairs, US Economy, Health Care, Military or anything else except she will give bigger profits to Oil Companies, sign the Death bill, over turn Roe vs Wade and what ever the Republican boys tell her to do. Sarah should watch out for Teflon John he gets frisky when he has had his viaga and he's not looking for Cindy.
Powkat @ 62:
McCain and her might get along just fine, since he is stuck in the 60's
Jesus Fuck, you Obamabots can't even make it though insulting ONE MORON who makes a complete ASS of herself without slinging repugnant sexism around, can you?
And people wonder why I've pretty much given up on voting and settled for "The next four years will suck"
John McCain needed a distraction to take the focus off of him and the really serious issues that we are facing....
Incomes are way down and prices are soaring out of sight!

This is just a desparate hail mary play. McCain is toast and he knows it so he's rolling the dice. Palin is a juvenille attempt to exploit imaginary Democrat divisions.
With her extremist views on abortion, the environment, creationism, automatic weapons and a zillion other issues Palin is just Dick Cheney in high heels. The only voters this choice helps with are a few PUMA lunatics and the hard right of the GOP.
Palin just got the promotion of her life she went from political non-entity to (pending) historical footnote. Who knows, in a couple of years time she may make it all the way to Trivial Pursuit question. She has about as much chance of being VP as one of those polar bears she has such a downer on.
Ha! What a slap in the face to Romney!
LOL!
She doesn't know what the Veep does... (sigh), I still think that's a good thing, as opposed to what Darth asshole has apparently felt the job was all about for 8 years.. But more to the point.. Sweetie? I really don't think it's something you're gonna have to worry your cute little repubic ass about.... This time next year??? You'r still gonna be sitting in that same chair, which I assume is in the Alaska Governors office.. So don't sweat it... m-kay??? JD
You forgot "Shoot hunting buddies in the face."
oh. dear. God. is she for real??
meanwhile, gang, i know we are still pumped from obama's speech and all, but remember, we still have 90-some-odd days before election day. in 2004, we were convinced that Kerry/Lieberman was a sure thing because who the hell would want to re-elect Chimpy/Vader? so let's exercise cautious optimism...
and do whatever we can to get Obama/Biden in the White House!
Funny, how you fair minded liberals have already attacked Ms. Palin's hair, redneckness (cause she hunts and fishes), and how she has SO much less experience than Mr. Obama.
But you miss one thing - SHE IS NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT! Obama IS! So, her inexperience is COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT!
The only thing that is relevant, experience wise, is that Mr. Obama has only been a state senator and US senator - WHILE SHE HAS BEEN IN CHARGE OF AN ENTIRE STATE!
In actuality, I was a Hillary supporter. She has more backbone and fortitude than Obama could ever hope to have. And as it stands - I would MUCH rather have her as a VP than Mr. Biden, because she would make a FAR better President if the occasion were to arise.
Bye Bye lefties - just like the last 2 elections, your candidates suck, and you have lost the race before it even started.
McCain really thinks that women are stupid....altho I've seen some of those Hillary Clinton faithfuls who don't know how to find a way to pull their heads out of their arses. They might just fall for this trick.
But I have to say, this is justice. A republican has to select a woman to save his old arse and his party. Hahahhahaahaha...it's kinda sweet really. In the end, Ms pageant queen turns baby making machine who loves guns will be their excuse for not winning this election. Since they know they don't have a chance in hell to win this time around, they might as well pick a woman to be their scapegoat. I might not be a Hillary fan but Ms. Palin is definitely not in the same league of Ms. H. Puhlllllleeeeezzzzzeeeeee.
why sarah, it's easy being a gop veep! there's just a few fun things to remember to do!
subvert the constitution.
change the presidents depends/thorazine drip
deliver a sneer/an f-bomb/a classified leak to the press
invade some country
shoot somebody (preferably a "friend")
Rand @ 100:
Are you high?
Merle @ 93:
Because of a few sexist comments on a blog, you've quit voting and settled for more of the same crap? At least nobody can say you're a quitter! Er... wait, what?
That's not Photoshop.
This thread pretty much tells the story on Sarah Palin. She still is totally "clueless" about what a Veep does. Not only that but she's also clueless about foreign policy, international leaders, basic geography, the military, the budget, congress, and policy making....just to name a few.
Here's what's very frightening though - There is an exceptionally high probablility that McCain's Stage 3 Invasive Melanoma will make him at least very ill over the course of a 4 year term to it being fatal so the reality of this clueless youngster taking the helm of this country is tantamount to treason.
To suggest that this uneducated, inexperienced and totally clueless individual would become President of this Country if McCain were to fall ill or die is a very dreadful thought. It would be all we would need as a country to fall apart totally.
Wow! The ramifications of this selection are frightening to say the least; enough to make people leave the country in droves to say the worst. Should this nincompoop with 16 months experience as a mere Governor of a state lost in the boonies be asked to run this country of ours, we will all need to leave town - and fast.
I feel sorry for Joe Biden. He will have to appear in a debate with this JOKE. She will probably do o.k. in the debate due to the way they are done. Still, she is an insult to all women. Women do not expect to be played down to by putting this token not worth anything woman on a ticket. We expect to have someone earn their way onto a ticket. Shades of Geraldine Ferrara. Shame on John McCain. He needs to tell her what a V.P. is supposed to do.
Oh please - little Barry is pretty much clueless as to what a President does. That is evident every time he opens his mouth.
osiris @ 106:
Sarah Palin needs to stick to beauty pageants...oops...she's over that hill, too. Surely, from the lack of vocabulary and her pronunciation of nuclear (nuke-u-lar) we have incredible insight into her brain or lack thereof. This is one of the saddest days in Republican history. This is a slap in the face by John McCain of his female colleagues in this congress. This is a travesty and a mockery of our election process. This is a sad day for all but will result in the overwhelming victory of Barack Obama becoming the next President of the United States.
Go Barack!
Thank you, John McBush! We knew you'd come through for us!
Fall @ 103:
Yea definitely High. Maybe if we smoked whatever he's smoking, we wouldn't mind that our president sucking the life out of our country either.

OK... McCain is sliding into dementia; but how does SHE think she's qualified? The fact that she accepted is one of the more worrying aspects of all of this.
Rand @ 100: As they say, good bye to bad rubbish. And, don't let the door hit you in the ass in the way out! Adios, douchebag.

Hmm. Somebody who says, "Jesus Fuck," is concerned about something said being repugnant to somebody.

For this ONE reason, I hope and pray that McCain/Palin wins. To be rid of you liberals from this country would be the BEST thing that could ever happen.
BTW - I will be happy to pay your bus fare to Venezuela when the times comes ;)

What we have here is a "blasphemous Jesus Freak" - now if that's not the epitome of hypocrisy, I don't know what is! What a joke some of these sick trolls are.
Merle @ 93:
Are you arguing that McSame picked because of her qualifications and we're knocking her down because she's a woman?
Here's a clue: McInsane picked her because of her va-jay-jay and we are making fun of his sexism.
its apparent that she has never read the constitution
cant believe she is from my generation
Hey Rand, Troll - Buck up, buddy. You're going to lose and lose badly with this creep on the ticket. Just wait until her complicity in Ted Steven's criminal deeds becomes headline news. Fact is: McPappy is in over his head so he's trying to sabotage the campaign and then blame it on a woman - typical MO for a mysogenist which he definitely is. Calling his wife a whore and then suggesting that she participate in the vulgar contest recently tells the tale.
As said previously, don't let the door hit you in your ass (oops, I meant head since they're one in the same for you) on the way off the thread.
Rump@117 The adults are trying to discuss something; why don't you run along and boil yer head. Again.

Just like he picks all his woman - for they va-jay-jay. I'm surprised that he didn't select Vicky Iseman, his Mistress, as his veep to tell you the truth. She's got competition now.
Isn't one of her duties to check if he is still alive every morning?
But she has a brand new baby. Doesn't she have enough jobs? I predict a withdrawal before the convention.
Rand @ 100:
So should I be led to believe you're switching from supporting Hillary to supporting McCain? If so, what made you a Hillary supporter and how do the things you liked about her policy positions apply more to McCain than to Obama? This isn't meant to be snarky or anything. I'm honestly trying to figure out why people are switching from Hillary to McCain.
McCain's choice tells us he thinks voters are stupid.
He's right, but still, I would be offended.
McSame and Palin

LOL - yea, okay. Your party was owned and made irrelevant in one day. And just like Kerry/Edwards, when you were SO SURE that they would be elected, Obama/Biden will only be a footnote to history.
this is the politico
I really just want you to notice the need for a spellchecker over there.
You'd think these shills could at least be conversant with editing tools.
I know! Dont' tell me! I expect too much some times.
Seriously, one heart beat away from being the leader of the free world. You can't write this stuff.
It's fascinating how McPappy had nothing credible that he could tout as having accomplished to show for his long years in the Senate so he certainly couldn't select someone who would eclipse him in political gravitas or personal integrity - therefore, enter Miss Dolly Dingdong from Podunkville who names her children after fairy tales. Talk about la-la-land, folks.
Middle america is reeling and laughing their asses off right now. The only reason anyone would tune in next week to the convention would be for the same reason everyone stops to look at a train wreck.
The new McViagra and DollyDoLittle Train Ride! He'll have Mistress Cindy in the caboose of the train waving until her face cracks. They're the only cracks in the ceiling they'll experience.
This is pathetic and desperate and makes a total mockery out of our entire political system. If I were a Republican who ran for President or a Female Member of the Republican Party with experience and personal gravitas, I'd be bullshit right now. McSame has slapped them all in the face and sucker-punched Lieberman and Romney.
Hey Rand!
Go move in with the Amish. Country untouched by progressive liberals.

Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum....I smell the smell of a schill here. A republican paid operative shill. Nothing to learn of any substance here....
Chuck @ 7:
GOOD PHOTOSHOP!
The only thing the liberals are progressing in is in destroying this country.
I hate her already. Anyone who wants to teach creationism in public schools is no friend of the U.S. Bad enough that we already live in an "embryonic police state". The last thing we need is some religious nutcase like Palin to start shoving her religion down our throats.
Lamda member hands reefer back to Booger err Rand, "that is some good shit"
Clue; if you want to infiltrate left wing websites you shouldn't claim to be a Hilary partisan and take the tag "Rand". It's sort of a give away.
Why don't you go home like you do ever night and abuse the household staff or beat your dogs to give yourself the illusion that your alive.
The Truthiness Hurts @ 127:
That made me actually laugh out loud, for real. Nice one.
Merle, I agree with the immature celebration. I don't agree, however, with you just accepting the next 4 years to suck and not voting. It's never been about picking good or evil. It's about picking the less of two evils. This one's as easy a vote as you will ever see.
As anyone here stopped to ask WHY such an easy target was picked as VP? Neocons and Republicans can be evil, but I'm sorry to say they are not THIS stupid. Is McCain being sabotaged? Did Karl Rove purposefully tell McCain NOT to pick Lieberman, and to pick Palin for some reason unknown to McCain? Tread carefully. Keep your wits about you and wait until Obama is actually sworn in as President before jumping for joy.
The inside scoop on "real" (as opposed to the Rand type - Faux supporters) Hillary supporters is that they are incredulous that this inexperienced little twit from no where has the audacity to suggest that she be compared to Hillary in the first place.
Hillary will be out chewing this woman up into tiny little fragments next week. There is not a "real" Hillary supporter who cannot see that this woman is totally unqualified as opposed to their candidate who was very qualified. Any woman with even a modicum of intelligence can see by this woman's persona and articulation (or lack of vocabulary) that she isn't even well read - no less educated or experienced. There is NO WAY any true Hillary supporter will draw a parallel to this nobody from podunkville.
Hell most people have never heard of the town she was Mayor in. I wonder - did one of the Moose or Elk not want the job?
About a quarter way down from the top of this link is a hilarious pic of the new GOP ticket.

they'll have to re-schedule. she has to get her hair did that day.
Rand @ 136:
How could liberals be progressing in destroying something which your matinee idols (Bush and Cheney) have ALREADY destroyed? I rest my case. Move on, troll and get out of the way here. Your commentary belongs on some first grade blog.
Of course she doesn't know what the VP does. In regards to Cheney nobody knows what that guy does. There's one job role that Palin will do well, she'll make McCain look even older. If Bush stops by the White House he'll have someone to clean his glasses on.
Rand @ 100:
bye bye, rushbot!
In the States, the more incompetent you are, the mores qualified you are to be president or vide-president. You don't have to worry there are a lot of guie from big companies in Washington who will tell you what to say and what to sign...
She talked about 18 million Hillary voters as if those 18M were for Hillary or McCain, not realizing that those 18M voted Democratic leaning towards Hillary 'by preponderance; or 'beyond reasonable'.
I bet >17M of those are for Obama.
One last thing - if she is such a bad pick, and McCain is just some old fuddy-duddy, then why are you people so concerned with either of them? If Obama is the Messiah that all of you see, to think he is, then his opposition should not matter one iota.
Come on - you already have this locked up. This thing in November called a "general election" is just a formality. You should all be sipping chianti, donating to charities, and feeling good about how righteous you are.
Don't worry - be happy.
