It isn't about Palin's experience!
by Lono

It has never been about Palin's experience or inexperience...it's about John McCain's hypocrisy. If he honestly believed any of the shit he's been peddling about Obama's inexperience, he would never have nominated Sarah Palin to be VP.

It's that simple.

Could you elaborate a bit on Obama's experience? I was not aware that he had any.

but you're missing/avoiding the point.

If Obama is unqualified, Palin is more so. I don't have a problem with Obama's experience, but you do. How can you accept Palin?

Oh, that's right, you're full of shit.

Who Cares?

Nobody votes on experience. Certainly not this year. It's been predictably jaw-dropping to watch the punditry wring their hands that "McCain has lost his best argument." Well, if it's not a winning argument, why worry about losing it? They also say it was a "risky" pick.

I am reminded of someone (not an idiotic lib, but an idiotic con) playing blackjack. His main concern, like Obama, was not to bust. The guy never took a card. I asked him why, and he responded "I don't like to take risks". My reaction, unexpressed, was but if the dealer beats you, you still lose.

I would stack Palin's experience up against Obama's any day of the week.

Anytime. Any topic.

She would absolutely smoke him.

Are you really that fucking stupid....I'm serious, not trying to use hyperbole...are you seriously that ignorant?

Palin has been the governor of a state. She has taken on selfish interests in her own party and beaten them. She has managed a payroll and a budget and state departments.

Obama has passed out sandwiches and soup for homeless people on the streets of Chicago. He has spent 15 minutes or so in the Senate (actual time he has not been campaigning for president).

Now, answer the question...are you really that fucking stupid?

it's that he looks like an idiot for having spent so much time yammering about experience only to pick the least experienced Republican in the whole country. Hell, he had to leave the lower 48 to do it!

And when anybody points that out, y'all pretend it's about Palin's experience and that somehow it's the Democrats that have changed position.


Maybe he was hoping
by biteoftheweek

that the outrage from the left about her inexperience would only bring out in a bad light Obama's inexperience, and the hypocrisy of the left in this regard.

If so, he is as brilliant as he is devious.

Ahem, Obama (Cough) n/t

Re: Yup.
by Lono

I honestly believe that Obama's experience trumps Palin's.

And having you call me stupid is like a badge of honor I'll wear proudly.

eom
Well, I do admire your honesty
by JackDallas

Not many posters here, left or right, will admit to being as fucking stupid as you have done.

Thanks, I'll leave you alone now.

anyone else notice the irony of john mccain nominating

Re: That isn't helping.
by Lono

It reads as an attack on Palin's character, and Palin's character is entirely beside the point. I realize it's a whack on McCain's ad, but it's too easily misrepresented.

Re: What hypocrisy of the left?
by Lono

Didn't I just explain it?

Most of us are simply flabbergasted that McCain had the temerity to do something like this. You know, being an honorable, honest, straight-talker and all.

Of course, you don't pay attention to what most of us say, you prefer to pick and choose more extreme comments and apply them like a blanket to everybody.

Yea, I know. Fuck me.
