Undecided voters: Permit me one last try at to help you make your decision.
Close your eyes and imagine the USA is on the brink of economic disaster (I know it’s far-fetched, but bear with me). Jobs are disappearing, incomes are stagnant, and everybody seems to be running out of money and even losing their houses. McCain drops dead two weeks into his presidency (not at all impossible). Suddenly, Sarah Palin, housewife and small-town politician from Shit’s Creek, right-wing radical and religious fanatic, becomes President of the United States and leader of the free world. She lacks the qualifications, the knowledge and the intelligence to hold the highest office in the land. Period.
‘Don’t know much about history but when a country is at its lowest economic ebb, isn’t that when a crackpot dictator usually seizes control?
For some reason otherwise intelligent Republicans and Independents cannot see the difference between Palin’s spotty ho hum state (5 different ones) college record vs. Obama’s graduating # 1 in his class at Harvard. They can’t quantify her supposed great executive experience as a small-town mayor/first-time governor versus Obama’s being a professor of constitutional law, civic leader and a US senator. Really? This is the pile of perfumed horseshit the Republicans are inhaling to fool themselves into sticking with McCain (even though McCain made the unbelievably dangerous decision of picking a total lightweight like Palin to succeed him as President).
It’s time to face it Undecided people: As I suspected "Is She Smarter than a Fifth Grader?”, Sarah Palin is nothing but an actress. Now we know. What other profession has a hair stylist, makeup artist and personal wardrobe shopper on staff? Palin’s playing the part of VP candidate. In her introduction speech she warned us jokingly that she was a pit bull with lipstick. Turned out that was the last truth she spoke in the seven weeks we’ve known her. And she’s power hungry. If I was McCain, I wouldn’t go hunting with her, that’s for sure.
If you’re still on the fence, please take another hard look at the situation: McCain is 72, and has high blood pressure, an explosive temper, high cholesterol, and has had the deadliest type of cancer 4X! He only allowed glances at his most recent medical records. What’s he hiding? Is his erratic behavior related to the bucketful of prescription pills it’s rumored he takes every day? Is that why he gets flummoxed a lot just like grandpa?
Palin’s few unscripted moments revealed a total lack of knowledge of foreign policy, history and civics. She’s refused to even say what magazines and newspapers she reads. Why trust a person who’s evasive or worse - lying? Palin claims to be just an ordinary small town WallMart gal, but wears $150,000 designer outfits and stays in $700 a night hotel rooms. She also thought nothing of billing Alaska for many, many personal expenses. So, she’s already corrupt and hasn’t yet spent one night in D.C.
Please consider the many intelligent insiders like Colin Powell – both Republicans and independents, more knowledgeable than you or I, who have left McCain based on his age, health, and his reckless, cynical selection of replacement. And even tough Palin is only running for VP, let’s imagine the horror if McCain dies.
What more do you need to know? Just pick the candidate who’s obviously the healthiest, the smartest, most skilled, most sophisticated and most Kennedy-like diplomat: Barack Obama.

Great report Karyl ! I cancelled our subscription to the "North County Times" newspaper today because they endorsed John McCain yesterday.
ReplyDeleteThey ran a Pro-Obama column by Steve Chapman today noting how he's the best candiate, but the paper endorsed McCain yesterday ( Whaaaaaaaat ?)
I'll miss our local paper, but enough is enough already. "There are none so blind as those who will not see"........and I'm hoping to see Good News on November 4th and thereafter. Bestest, Charlie
Well said. Very persuasive.

What gets me is WHY DOESN'T EVERYBODY SEE THIS! We went out with our republican family last night and kept hearing how Obama has despicable character as he pals around with terrorists and crazy reverends. He's going to raise taxes, just ask Joe the Plumber. He's going to drive high-earning people like doctors out of the country. After all,he's a socialist who wants to "spread the wealth." About Palin's shopping spree, "she just needed a few clothes." My sister-in-law told me she terrified for the country if Obama wins! This is disturbing- they're not stupid people. How many others buy this nonsense. Also, how much racial bias will there be when people actually get to the polls. Speaking of terrified- McCain & Palin terrify me. We must pray for a good election day.
ReplyDeleteK: Your latest piece "Suddenly Sarah" gets an A+. Hopefully it will all be over in a week - that is if it doesn't take weeks to sort out all the miscues of voter registration fraud, voting machine breakdowns, nasty letters to voters warning them if they vote Democratic they'll suffer an IRS tax audit, and on and on. And, if courts will have to rule on Republican complaints of illegal persons votes. By illegal voters I don't mean illegal immigrants. What are we going to do when we don't have stupid Republicans to kick around anymore? I leave it to you. John
ReplyDeleteThe 3am phone call seems to do it for moi.

Oy Vay...what moron could disagree????
ReplyDeleteE.
well said!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry. Jesus will save us. Then we can put faith back into school where it belongs, stop teaching this evolution nonsense, deport all the illegals, win the war on terror, bring democracy to the Middle East, stop these egregious (sorry, too big a word) stupid handouts for the uninsured, uneducated, non-white, lawless, faithless pagens (sp?) that have no religion. We need to support out troops and stay the course. Execute the traitors. Yeah, Sarah! You rock, baby!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I'll go hunting with her anytime. We have illegals crossing the border every night. Let's go hunting! Send the right message! Lock 'n load!
Loved "Suddenly Sarah" ! Yes, exactly, she is an actress, and by the way, not a very good one.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope you're beating a dead horse. 8 more days.
