Not Ready

By this point it should be quite clear to voters that Sarah Palin is severely out of touch with the issues. Her record of fighting the pork-barrel spending of Congress has been grossly exaggerated, her statements regarding the War on Terror suggest that she simply does not understand what is going on in the world, and the fact that she had no idea of what the Bush Doctrine is proves it.

Sarah Palin did take on the Republican machine in Alaska, which is certainly commendable, but we should be more cautious when it comes to deciding the person who could very well be in control of the country's nuclear launch codes. Have you heard some of the things this lady has said? That the war in Iraq is a "task that is from God" ... "that there is a plan and that plan is God's plan." Umm... that's some scary stuff.



Here is a fundamentalist Christian who believes that by fighting 'terrorists' in Iraq, we are serving the will of a supreme being... and she is seriously a candidate for the second most powerful job in the world? What will happen if President McCain dies in office? What course will she take if we are attacked again on her watch? A person so out of touch and with such radical views has no place in our government... I thought we had learned our lesson!

UPDATE: The McCain people believe that women will vote for gender; that they will turn their backs on values just to get a woman in the White House. I think McCain is in for a big surprise from the gals of the USA come Nov. 4. Hopefully.
