Ladies and Gentlemen, the Best VP Candidate the Republican Party can Offer?

Can anyone in good conscience vote for Sarah Palin? Check out this quote from an Associated Press article in the Star Tribune.

***************************************************************

Asked what other Supreme Court decisions she disagrees with, Alaska's governor couldn't name any.

"Well, let's see. There's, of course, in the great history of America rulings there have been rulings, that's never going to be absolute consensus by every American," Palin said. "And there are, those issues, again, like Roe v. Wade where I believe are best held on a state level and addressed there. So you know, going through the history of America, there would be others but ...."

Asked again to name a decision she disagreed with, Palin replied: "Well, I could think of, of any again, that could be best dealt with on a more local level. Maybe I would take issue with. But you know, as mayor, and then as governor and even as a vice president, if I'm so privileged to serve, wouldn't be in a position of changing those things but in supporting the law of the land as it reads today."

***************************************************************

Wow. That many words to actually say, "I don't know squat about the judicial history of the United States."

Excuse me, Governor, is there any valid question to a possible future vice president for which you can offer an intelligent, articulate, straight-forward answer? She's one wrestling pose away from "Idiocracy".

I weep every night because you know about 50% of this country will vote the McCain/Palin ticket, even if they were monkeys playing cymbals.

Of course I've been lumped in as a liberal, intellectual, elitist because I, like as questions and stuff.

Listening to MPR today, I heard one man in PA say that Palin is the only reason he's voting for McCain. Why? "Palin don't owe no one in Washin'ton nuthin."

Her supporters are as articulate as she is.

Mind if this uppity, immoral woman jumps on your liberal, intellectual, elitist bandwagon? :-)

Counting the minutes till the debate...
