I don't think I said McPain was incompetent. I don't like him because I disagree with him on some major issues. Amnesty, McPain-Feingold to name a few. I felt he would be Democrat-lite.

Wow, I never realized I was a "type." When folk disagree with your way of thinking, it must be handy to type-cast.

Well, at least Pres. Bush beat that quitter Gore - the one who got released early from the Army and his Vietnam tour so he could go to divinity school (Vanderbilt), and quit that a couple months later to follow in his father's footsteps.

I'm amazed that when a conservative-leaning person becomes President, the liberal-leaning folk consider it mandatory to protest, demean, denounce and ridicule the Administration whenever the Administration doesn't cow-tow to the liberal-leaning folk's agenda. YET, when a liberal-leaning person becomes President, the liberal-leaning folk consider any critical review of the President's agenda by anyone as heresy.

What keeps this country going is the critical review of the government (Executive and Legislative) by the citizenry. Without that criticism, the potential for state-sponsored or condoned bigotry gets very real. We get our best ideas by challenging the vibrancy and efficacy of today's actions, so that tomorrow does indeed have the potential to be brighter than today.

No, President Obama and his appointees, and the Legislature's 545 are not going to get carte blanche, and every action will indeed by dissected. He's not the monarch or the dictator - just another elected politician. He's no smarter or skilled than any of his predecessors, despite the hype. The question is whether he'll be luckier than others.

Palin would get my vote!!

The experience argument is so..................political

btk

Palin for President
Joe the Plumber for V.P.
Ensign and Sanford for International affairs (when one is out of town the other could cover)
Tiahrt for Human Rights and Health Care

There will probably be more Applicants soon.
