Quote - OMG..... You do you realize that McCain just turned 72, and if he died while serving as President, this giggling former beauty pagent contestant who's in-bed with Big Oil and is radical right-wing extremist would become President of the United States and LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD!???  OO!!!!! 

Well, it was either her or paris hilton. 

To be honest I can't stand Obama, as he is too progressive (read facist/socialst/communist) and doesn't get the principles the US was founded on.

Some counter-points about Palin:

1.  Barak Obama has one year in the senate and spent the next two running for president.  His foriegn policy experience consists of a few speeches to anti-US crowds overseas.

2.  Being strong pro-life is fine if you believe that someone else is a living being.  She does, so you need to understand that from her perspective, there's a group of people who are being denied their basic rights as humans.  Hopefully she'll apply that fight to all humans.  But then again, maybe men should be able to choose that women don't have the right to work or vote.  Maybe the goverment should be able to choose you have no rights to you life, you liberty, or your property and they own everything and you are their slave. Maybe people should be able to choose to keep others as slaves and treat them like property.

Yeah, freedom of choice for the sake of freedom of choice is such a great thing.

3.  Buchanan wouldn't have gone into Iraq.  Yeah he's a bit nutty at times, but he's reliable in his nuttiness.

4.  If schools are allowed to teach atheism, agnotism, enviromentalism, or the religion where the state itself is the religion, I think creationism is fine.

5. Weather we are or not is reguardless (pun intended), to be honest there's too much bull-poop on all sides to know the truth or to waste a trillion dollars to reduce the temperature 1 degree 100 years from now.  65 million years ago, the planet was a lot warmer than it is today.  Obviously us warm-blooded mammals caused global cooling in order to get a leg up and need to be elminiated.

6.  We can't switch over to non-oil yet.  No one wants nuclear power and enviromentalists won't even allow tranmission lines from wind or solar.  And the polar bear population has been going up in recent years, its listing was purely for political reasons.  Right now, we need oil, that fact is inescapable.  Better to have someone support drilling than someone who's happy gas is at $4 but sad it went up that quick.  Alternative energy has to come later and it has to be efficient and affordable.

BTW, the best thing I've seen so far is biofuel from algae.  It'll cost the consumer about 2 bucks a gallon to make, but it's doable.

7.  McCain likes to make waves.  Maybe he's just being the maverick that the left likes him to be.  I honestly think that washington is getting so bad someone with no political experience and is a normal person is better than someone who's been in politics forever. 

BTW, don't quote from a far left-wing hate site or a far right one.  The people there are set in their ways and are so close minded the truth is irrelevant.  Do independant research and form your own opinion.

WARK!
