Thanks to Jerry for sharing this. Hilarious.
Hmmm… I’d rather eat the ramen though.

For crying out loud. McCain and “FRIENDS” proclaimed a victory for Palin on last night’s debate. They said she did a “magnificent job.” Excuse me?!? Have we really lowered the standards of a V.P. so low that merely to complete sentences and to recite talking points can be considered awesomeness?!?
I feel a little confused. Are we trying to elect someone to fill the position of a Vice President? Or are we trying to customize THE JOB to fit a person’s ability?

I don’t think I’ve ever dedicated a post entirely to politics. Well, after watching last night’s V.P. debate, I just need to vent a little bit. I have a few points to make.
- Did you all notice how Palin ignored questions and answered something entirely unrelated? And she even made a point to tell us that she wasn’t going to play by the rules? OK. First agree and accept the debate format, then ignore the moderator. Nice. This just demonstrated to me that Palin is not a listener. She would tell you what SHE thinks that you want to know. Will she also decide what’s best for you without listening? It also demonstrated that she does not play well with others. She does not handle interaction with others well. Zoning in on the camera helped her focus on PREPARED talking points. And did you notice she had no reaction after Biden’s emotional moment? She was able to immediately turn to the camera and continue with her talking points. She was totally in the zone… the Sarah Palin Show zone.
- All the folksy talk, the Joe six-pack, the you betchas, the hockey moms, the winking, just sounded like a sales pitch. Yes I know, they were all trying to sell themselves to us. But this one reminded me a slimy car salesperson. (Sorry, but it did.) Do we want to let someone charm her way into our lives and forget about the important stuff? Haven’t we already let someone cowboy his way into our lives for the last 8 years? Do we want that to happen again? DOG GONIT!
- It was very convenient for her to drag Obama and Biden’s history into the equation. But when Biden mentioned Bush, it was backward thinking? HUH? And if I remember correctly, some people cannot do enough to separate themselves from the Bush administration. How do they do it? By pointing out Bush’s mistakes of course. Oh wait. Maybe Palin doesn’t need to know the past. Just like she doesn’t need to know what caused global warming to fix it.
- There were still moments that she did not sound coherent. Can you imagine if she HAD to answer questions and not recite prepared talking points? And yes, I DO think she memorized her answers. Oh wait, they are answers only if they can be applied to questions.
I know I am a little mean spirited this morning. But gotta get these things off my chest somehow. Thank you for reading.
