Ugh, Sarah Palin...

Look, I don't really want to get too much into the bullshit story that is Sarah Palin. I think it's funny how she could be getting such a free pass on certain things because no one wants to be called sexist. It's BS, she lied in her first speech as the VP nominee, and not a single media source called her on it. Hell, she says the same damn thing in every interview or speech? And why? Because no one has the balls to go at her on it. That's not the only thing that bothers me either.

SHE DID SUPPORT THE BRIDGE TO NOWHERE. It's on tape. Hell, it's in print. And it wasn't even like it was a long time ago. When she says she sold the plane on eBay, she didn't. She sold the plane, but it was at a loss. She took per diem pay when she stayed at her own home. Not exactly fiscally conservative, is it? Hell, when she was mayor of Wasilla, AK... she left the city 20 million dollars in debt. Let me say that shit again, she is a so-called fiscal conservative who left a town of less than 10,000 in a state with a population less than that of Charlotte, NC TWENTY million dollars in debt. And we expect her to help get rid of a trillion dollar plus debt at a national level?

That doesn't even mention the fact that she's not even that familiar with her job. Just a couple months ago, someone asked her if she would accept the VP spot. Her answer? She said she wasn't even sure what a VP does. Hell, Charlie Rose asked her about the Bush Doctrine, and she didn't even know what that meant. The issues in the U.S. prior to this recession revolved around foreign policy. John McCain couldn't tell you that Czechoslovakia wasn't a country. Sarah Palin probably couldn't spell it.

The experience issue is BS too. The conservative keep going on and on about her so-called executive experience. If executive experience mattered that much, why didn't they elect Rudy Giuliani? Hell, Giuliani was mayor of city that's got a LOT more people than the state of Alaska. Besides, just because someone can be manager of Wal-Mart doesn't mean that same someone can be the CEO of Wal-Mart.

The sexism claims from the right baffle me too. Shoot, the most sexist action by anyone in this election season has been from John McCain. McCain chose Palin because he thought that the Hillary voters would swing to him regardless of the fact that Palin is polar opposite of Palin on almost every issue. I'd like to think women aren't that dumb. I can't see a woman making an informed decision to vote for a woman that she disagreed with on every issue just because the candidate is a woman.

But I digress...
