McCain picked Sarah Palin to be his running mate on the GOP ticket (as everyone already knows), which is fine except....
How many presidents give their vice presidents a nice, tight hug like the one McCain gave her? I don't think Bush gave Cheney a soul hug when he was introduced him as his running mate ... how about a handshake? And all that lofty talk about breaking the glass ceiling kinda goes out the window when the would-be prez is pressing his body up against his female running mate. [1:17 in the video]

Since when did being a liberal become synonymous with being an asshole? I'm blown away with the out right viciousness of attacks on this woman who: (1) has more experience than Obama; (2) aside from her differing position on issues regarding when life begins and gun control embodies the liberal wet dream: (a) female; (b) working; and(c) in a power position.
ReplyDeleteLiberals are supposed to be tolerant of differing views. I thought the idea of "I may not agree with you, but I'll defend to the death your right to believe and say it" was a liberal, tolerant concept.
The position that the woman cannot be pro-life and preach abstinence because her daughter is pregnant is untenable. Last time I checked, people are fallible. The concomitant position that because Palin's daughter is pregnant, she is failed mother and a hypocrite is also untenable.
I understand the concept of "what's good for the goose is good for the gander," but suggesting that this woman's son is really her grandson is ludicrous.
This over the top, sexist, chauvinistic attack is something I would have expected from the moral right, not the left. Gauging by the reaction, sounds like McCain made a good pick. We'll see how she does in her speech tonight.
P.S. I'm morally liberal, fiscally conservative. I live in Texas which means I get to vote my conscience and the rest of the state votes my pocketbook.
Hey honeygirl. I like how she keeps backing up from him, and turning her shoulder toward him, with that tight little please-stop-sexually-harassing-me smile.
