I'll say it again - Go ahead and describe your public service but to spit on another's? Have Obama or Biden said word one about her lack of experience? No. Two words - low class. Snipers will always do sniping, but the candidates?

We tried to watch some of Giuliani's and Palin's speeches but had to bail before my skin started peeling off. Giuliani said that if we fail in Iraq it means a victory for Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden. Horrifying, how they just repeat bald faced lies and everyone cheers. Do none of those people understand the Iraq war at all?

I read the transcript...

Palin said a victory in Iraq is now in sight. Um, who is saying that? Oh wait, the Republicans have been saying that every single fvcking day since we sent our citizens over there to die.

She said she'd be an advocate for special needs children and their families. You mean, like providing health care, classes, or other monetary assistance? Oh wait, no, gov't isn't supposed to do that, right, conservatives? Well then, what kind of advocating is she going to do?

"Al-Qaida terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America ... he's worried that someone won't read them their rights?" I find it disgusting how she doesn't value our moral high ground, our justice process, our history of human rights.

She says Obama's plan would raise taxes but of course doesn't address for whom, or that if you make less than $250,000 your taxes would be cut. More bald faced lying.


I need a shower, and maybe a vacation away from here. Goody, I've got one planned.

Actually if I remember, initially someone from the Obama camp mentioned something about her not being qualified... but that was Friday on the day it was announced. Since then, they've stopped saying anything bad about Palin. In fact, Obama came out in strong support of the need to keep Palin's kids and family life out of it.
