Sarah Palin: New York Times Nov 8, 2008


Wel I know that I had removed all stories on the Republican run for presidency but I think this story in the New York Times needs our attention. While I did not think Sarah Palin was suitable as VP of our country that does not mean she should be treated this way. Even if she lobbied for the job, which I don't believe she did, she was picked by John McCain. So that is where the buck stops. She certainly gave him the initial boost that he needed. Would he have done better if he had chosen someone else? Perhaps, but he didn't choose someone else, he choose Sarah Palin. So give her a fair break as we would all want for ourselves.

Here is the story http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/08/us/politics/08palin.html?_r=1&th&emc=th&oref=slogin

Sarah Palin lobbied for the VP job and lobbied hard. She is a ruthless, ambitious, albeit ignorant narcissist. The fact that she was chosen by the Republican party to be on the ticket is unconscionable. She was within a hair of a heart bet of the presidency and she didn't even know African was a continent. Or who was in NAFTA. How did that happen? Her ignorance needs to be exposed. All Americans need to see what happened here so it can NEVER EVER happen again. What were the Republicans thinking? You had the Governor of LA? Why not him? He was smart? Why this woman? She was worse than ignorant? She was arrogant about her ignorance? She was dangerous. WE ALL NEED TO KNOW HOW SHE WAS CHOSEN.
