I have enough! It has been Palin, Palin, Palin everyday, with little new substances. There is a little something I observed the last few weeks, and there's a little something I want to break it to you guys. @ I'm starting to think the liberal media bias is real. Mostly, it's in the headlines and the way sentences are framed. Case in point: Palin Links Iraq to Sept. 11 In Talk to Troops in Alaska. So, well knowing Palin's claim isn't technically wrong, WSOP still wants to write in a way to suggest she backs Bush's jettisoned claim, with a sensationalized headline to go with it. There are many others, "war with Russia", etc etc... I mean news tend to sensationalize but I've seen enough to acknowledge the possibility of bias in the media. I don't see much the same been done to Obama. And every time, many of you guys from the left pounce on it. Of course, some on the right do the same. @ She is inexperienced, especially in foreign policy, everyone gets that. But some of you are making it like she's the one running for president. A VP's role can be big or small, and more focused on some areas, depending on the president. Here is some news, you D&D bbsers are not an average American! An average American doesn't spend hours a day debating nuances of foreign affairs. I really doubt an average lady in Ohio would say the same sort of things upon watching her interview. Oh, She doesn't know Bush doctrine, who care? Bush doctrine is a phrase coined by the media. I don't know a Michigan man would think "oh she doesn't know something my 5-year-olds know." @ Is democrat's strategy effective? To most Palin's supporters, namely women, they don't care about details in her answers. As long as she can carry herself with enough grace and looking competent, they will vote for her. All these focus on her only takes away the focus and Obama's chance to win. FYI, I doesn't favor either sides.
Look, If McCain was in good health, I would not mind Palin so much as she would have time to get up to speed. But according to some insurance actuary tables, there is an 85% chance that McCain will die or become incapacitated while in office, and to have someone as inexperienced and rigid in religious views as the President of the most powerful country on earth is absolutly terrifying. So, while I think McCain picked someone that has helped narrow the gap, I think he has gambled far too much with this pick. Palin has serious issues to be resolved. 1. Did she abuse her power in Troopergate? 2. Does she really believe that we are in Iraq doing God's work? 3. Why would she ask about banning books and then try to fire the librarian when she refused? 4. What exactly qualifies her to be 2nd in command? 5. How will she deal with foreign policy, which is so crucial, when she has lived in an isolated state with a very myopic set of issues. 6. Why is she against choice in the case of Rape and Incest? Right now, Palin is riding a wave, she is likable, firm, and to some cute.... To me, she is too risky, not someone I want to place my faith in to run this country. We tried the good ole boy Bubba Dubya...and he has screwed our country, why in HADES would we want to do that again? Let's work with the world and make it a better place, no more..."With us or against us" crap....there is too much at stake. DD
See...you don't know what you are talking about . Which means he has 85% chance of at least surviving his first term. plus, mortality statistics describe broad population trends. They insist the models can’t necessarily be applied to individual people.
Even if you take that article for what it is worth ...that is 15%...... What I heard....on CNN...was that with his cancer history & POW history that veterans are more likely to die earlier.. It could erroneous, but even 15% is too much risk for me. DD
I guess you don't mind seeing 4 million of Palin threads a day. Sexist? I don't know. I'm not disputing it, but just noting the source - it's from the left, and a woman .
