OMG! McCain picked…

Tina Fey as his running mate!

Okay, a little more seriously, I can understand the logic.  That bald guy says to McCain, so whose it gonna be — the person who you want to work side by side with for your term in maybe the most stressful job in the world?  The helmet haired Mormon who you secretly loathe, the mulleted yokel, the huckster southern preacher, or the joyless pro-choice Jewish Democrat from the Northeast?  And McCain said “I’ll take the crazy hot one.”

Alright-no really this time, the cognitive dissonance is too much for me, the Republican Vice Presidential pick goes from Dick Cheney to Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin, you have stolen my heart with your archetypical hot librarian looks — but you have not stolen my vote.

    Pawlenty must be furious - he is passed up for an inexperienced woman. It seems like everything the Republicans say is wrong with affirmative action is okay when they do it.

    1) a running mate who is literally, physically, out of touch with the majority of the United States?

    2) Awfully baritone crowd out there in Ohio.

    Sara Palin is known as a reformer by Alaska standards, that means she is not receiving her payments DIRECTLY from the Oil oligarchs.

    So Obama is campaigning on a message of change, and attacking McCain for being 26-year Washington Insider. So what does he do? Chooses Joe Biden, who has been a Washington Insider for 10 years longer than McCain! Biden has been in DC since Obama was 12 years old!

    Then McCain campaigns against Obama’s inexperience, and chooses a running made equally inexperienced.

    I guess we’re even. Let’s start from scratch.

    “Then McCain campaigns against Obama’s inexperience, and chooses a running made equally inexperienced.”

    Equally inexperienced? Really?

    Obama: 7 Years State Legislator (representing Illinois’ 13th District), 4 Years in the Senate.

    Palin: 2 Terms on City Council (of Wasilla, a town with a population of under 5,500 - less than the Undergrad Enrollment at the University of St. Thomas); 2 Terms as Mayor (again, of Wasilla); 18 Months as Governor

    Palin’s experience may cover more years, but Obama’s is more noteworthy.

    Hmmm….

    A woman who knows that is a far more noble thing to bring a Down’s baby into this world and love it unconditionally, rather than to kill it becuase it would be an inconvenicne.

    More Executive experience than Obama, Biden, or McCain. 8 yrs Mayor, 2 yeears Guv, political jobs, where, you know, you have to make, implement, and stand by your decisons. Neither ObamakinBiden (TM) nor McCain hvae had to do this. Hell, Obama voted PRESENT so he would not be held accountable..

    A runing mate who is not a racist. She doesn’t have an Indian accent so maybe Bidem will like her.

    A handle on energy secrutiy and energy policy. Knowing that an increasing polar bear population does not make them endangered. Knowing that it is better to drill in 2000 acres of god-forsaken country that most enviros will never go near than ship $700B a year to terrorist supporting and rogue nations. If ObamakinBiden (TM) don’t want 2000 acres destroyed by big trucks and holes in the ground, than they better propose and support a a moratorium on ALL residential and commercial construction in the US. Let’s see how that flies……..

    Knowing that is is every man’s god given right to defend themselves

    Except for Foreign Policy experience, this woman is a better candidate than McCain.

    I’m in. 100%%%%%

    Who AGREES with me?

    Minnesota Republican blogger MO, I agree 100%,

    Thank you for repeating the well distributed talking points you are supposed to say.

    Everybody knows this pick will whisk away disenfranchised Hillary Clinton supporters, and they will now embrace the ideology of the modern Republican party. We Minnesota Republican bloggers should have a pretty easy job dividing, slicing and dicing the Democrats and defeating them.

    It is common knowledge that what is only good for the Republican Party is what is good for America.

    I see no one is able to argue the facts.

    Strong on Energy.
    Strong on Family.
    Strong on 2nd Amendment
    Strong on Executivte Experience
    Not a racist like Biden.

    And, sorry to say, I am not on the RNCs talking points mail distrubtion list. I figgered that stuff out all by myself. Most Americans will, too. You ought to try it sometime.

    In fact, all RNC/McCain email goes into SPAM. The ObamaKinBiden email goes into my Enemies folder…

    Is FantasyBoy the best one can do on this post?

    100% Damn Straight, Ya’ll.

    Minnesota Republican blogger MO I agree 100%,

    Everybody knows the biggest enemy of America are people who disagree with us Republicans. Putting your Obama email into your enemies folder is an completely appropriate place for it. There are reasons we Minnesota Republican bloggers hate people who disagree with us so obsessively.

    It is completely rational and logical to consider Palins experience as mayor as executive experience way beyond any other candidate. This is an experience contest, after all, and whomever has the most wins….END OF ARGUMENT. Obviously, nobody thinks saying this is an exagerration (spin), because nobody has responded to your post.

    That shuffling sound you hear is all of the Republicans beginning to jockey for position for who will run against President Obama in 2012.

  12. 12 12 attilla

    That and the sound of the shredders gearing up at the White House and Naval Observatory.

    Facts?

    Cogent Argument Anyone?

    Cricket, Cricket….the silence says a lot.

    MO, I agree 100%,

    There are some people who think your comments are full of such poorly presented biased spin that responding to your comments are a waste of time.

    They are just people we Minnesota Republican bloggers disagree with, so they don’t matter anyway. I wouldn’t worry about it.

    Everybody knows you, MO, only win arguments, nothing less. These moonbats are afraid of your intellectual, independent facts that everyone has heard over and over and over again.
