Palin fuckup 478...

Oh McCain, you've done it again (with your patently absurd judgement in picking a VP)


Couric Why, in your view, is Roe v. Wade a bad decision?

Sarah Palin: I think it should be a states' issue not a federal government-mandated, mandating yes or no on such an important issue. I'm, in that sense, a federalist, where I believe that states should have more say in the laws of their lands and individual areas. Now, foundationally, also, though, it's no secret that I'm pro-life that I believe in a culture of life is very important for this country. Personally that's what I would like to see, um, further embraced by America.

Couric: Do you think there's an inherent right to privacy in the Constitution?

Palin: I do. Yeah, I do.

Couric: The cornerstone of Roe v. Wade.

Palin: I do. And I believe that individual states can best handle what the people within the different constituencies in the 50 states would like to see their will ushered in an issue like that.

Couric: What other Supreme Court decisions do you disagree with?

Palin: Well, let's see. There's, of course in the great history of America there have been rulings, that's never going to be absolute consensus by every American. 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 …

Couric: Can you think of any?

Palin: Well, I could think 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.

everything she says reminds me of the Miss Teen USA 2007 contestant from South Carolina

I am hoping for entertainment plus in the vice-president debate.

Biden will have to be careful though - he will be able to own here left, right and centre but then the fundys will paint him as a rude, sexist, meany-pants...

Own her
And meant to say Agreed.

she could make Biden out as a complete cock over iraq.... and he could make them yankees fall in love with him

chances are slim on both counts

he doesn't need to do anything pro-active to make her look stupid; she'll do it for him

Cos Obama is so much smarter right?

FACT: It's Obama vs. McCain. Not Obama vs. Palin. Palin is an idiot. BUT SO IS OBAMA!!!
Better an idiot as VP than as POTUS

Keep shouting it vads. Maybe one day you'll convince me, the 75% of political pundits who consistently point out how much more nuanced/reasoned/intelligent he is, and everyone else outside the bible-hick-belt.

How you can say with any sense of self-worth that McCain is SMARTER than Obama eludes me...

I'm probably smarter than Obama. Does that make me a better candidate for POTUS?

Sure as fuck not.

Experience counts. McCain has it. Palin and Obama don't.

Biden is only a VP. Irrelevant.

Points for extraordinary evasiveness - you been consulting to Mr Key on "How to divert attention from nasty little secrets: The emails were stolen"?

I personally believe therefore such as..

R

Needs more mentioning of McCain's military service.

Maybe an "Obama is a rich uncle Tom lawyer" thrown in for good measure.

You're slipping dude. You should read some more magazines and newspapers to keep up with current affairs. Which ones? ALL OF THEM! :>

Is it just me or does McCain have short arms?

Maybe a sign of in-breeding?..

I think they need to do a toe count.

R

It's because of the plane crashes he's been in RobW.

Don't be so callous

Just because I can stay on message, and would rather have a Silver-Star winner with 25 years of legislative experience and actual experience of busting corruption, perks, and pork-barrelling over a guy with 4 years in, a bunch of good ideas, and a snowflake's chance in hell of achieving them.

You guys dissed Edwards and Clinton, two COMPETENT Democrat candidates, for this fucking rube. Edwards, who spent his life working for unions. Clinton, who understands exactly how the White House works.

For what? A good looking, smooth talking huckster from Chicago

Just seen the footage of the interview.

*actual cringe*

There's no way I could watch the whole interview I actually had to stop the clip of the Russia question just in case the wind changed and I was forever stuck with the contorted face her answer had inflicted on me.

Vadz you have lost this debate, McCain chose Palin with his judgement, he was the one who put a hockey mum with the brain of a child a heart beat away from the nuclear button, its not Palin's fault she is in this position its McCain's for selecting her.

He will be using that same poor judgement to run the United States of America.

He is not fit to run the United States of America.

End of story.

extra-marital ones

And millions of voters are putting a bourgeois lawyer with the experience of an ant ON the nuclear button.

Remember, Palin is as experienced as Obama. The difference is one is a veep, one is a POTUS

gimme the POT U Sucka

The thread is about Palin. The person that would take over in the likely chance that McCain drops dead during his four year term.

"what newpapers and media do you read"

"ummm... all of them"

"all of them? can you name one, give me an example"

"...."

WHAT THE FUCK?

No wonder some republicans have called for her to do the honourable thing and admit shes not up to it and step down. And seriously, how could anyone that expects to be seen as competent pick someone so useless as their second in line. Someone that appears to have been picked purely to solidify the religeous nutjob vote.

on that score what are the chances of McCain dropping dead before the election what with all the stress of electioneering and the economy?

I wonder what would happen if he did

Actuarials have run the maths - him and Obama are actually pretty similar odds to get through the first term alive, but come the second term McCain's "death chance" goes to 25%...

And you know what her major in college was?




Journalism.

2012 Powell! DNT!

Palin (today):

What a retard. America should rightly be the laughing stock of the world on this issue. At least China and India have a line of excuses a mile long. America has: we're not sure the data confirms... bla bla

R

junior college, right? RIGHT?

They didn't even agree to the Kyoto Accord, wtf is she on about...

huckster huh?

Things are about to get very, very ugly :/

Deciding to play the association gane is a sure sign of desperation on the part of McCain, and it's unfortunate that Obama now has to follow suit. Kerry's 2004 campaign has made it clear that one can't stand idly by being smeared by your opponent.

Ahhh, what a despicable beast (American) politics is :>

desparation perhaps but we know the Republicans play dirty way better than the Democrats which makes it a good tactic for camp nutbar

Aren't they just. Still, good fun to watch from afar, in a car-crash kinda way...

note: Obama stands back and lets his surrogates do the dirty

good tactics

Examples?

I have only herd his aides use pretty much the same rhetoric as Obama him self, it seems they have definite game plan and are sticking to it.

I was just going by that report and being facetious; not actually seen any examples yet

Obama might have met with Ayers, but I have it on good authority that John McCain spent five years hanging out exclusively with communists.

No wonder he understands the workers better than "bitter, clinging to religion and guns" Hussein Obama

Palin seems out of touch with the science regarding climate change. RealClimates has done an article on the mater.
