Quote - Haha, I always like hearing your opinions Xeno, but...man, you're plum crazy.  

Given the current environment -- now there's a charge that I can live with. 

Quote - Can anyone confirm what Miss Nancy said earlier about Palin shooting moose and wolves from helicopter using automatic weapons a la Apocalypse Now?

Dunno -- but I will mention that this is the only place where I've heard that particular accusation(?) -- if you can call it that -- being made.  But no doubt: it's being widely talked about on the kook far-left-wing blogs -- right beside the stories claiming that Sarah Palin "faked" her recent pregnancy.

Oh, yeah -- those same blogs are currently desperately trying to dig up Sarah Palin swimsuit pictures from her beauty pageant days (which ties into the OP in this thread).  And there's a lot of talk about her not being up to the job for family reasons, etc.......but hey: what sort of behavior do you expect coming from guys who love to throw around the "sexist" label whenever it happens to suit their political purposes?

I wonder how many of them wanted to find pictures of Hillary in a swimsuit?  Or even -- shudder -- Nancy Pelosi.

Quote - I'd really like to know if I should consider her just another far right gun nut or if I should be as afraid of her as I am of McCain.

That all depends upon where you stand on the issues.  McCain concerns me on a number of levels -- but he's done a lot to at least damp some of that down with this pick.

As I've implied a couple of times above: the hysterical reaction of the left -- which includes the Main Stream Media (MSM) -- to this VP pick shows that McCain has outdone himself.  Sarah Palin is a gigantic threat to their accepted template for what a woman is supposed to be, in political terms: and they know it.  And thus the effect has been much like kicking over an anthill.
