    Maybe some of you already saw this, but i felt it deserved a post... I'm a little confused. Let me see if I get this straight... If you grow up in Hawaii , raised by your grandparents, you're 'exotic, different.' If you grow up in Alaska killing and eating moose, you're a quintessential American story. If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim. If you name your kids Willow , Trig and Track, you're a maverick. If you graduate from Columbia University and Harvard Law School you are unstable. If you attend 5 different small colleges before getting a Bachelors Degree, you're well grounded. If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a highly regarded Constitutional Law professor at the University of Chicago, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, serve as a US senator representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, and run a political campaign that sets records for number of people involved and contributing, you don't have any real leadership experience. If your resume is local weather announcer, 4 years on the city council, 6 years as the mayor of a town with fewer than 7,000 people (which you leave in $14.7 million of debt), 20 months as governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive (and according to actuarial tables, you have a greater than 30% chance of succeeding the president during his first term). If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a real Christian. If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, left your severely handicapped wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a devout Christian. If you support responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society. If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state's school systems while your unwed teen daughter gets pregnant, you're very responsible. After all, you set the example of being pregnant when you got married. Her sisters are sure to follow her excellent example too. If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family values don't represent America 's. If your husband is nicknamed 'First Dude', with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA , your family is extremely admirable. OK, thank you -- it is much clearer to me now.....

    funny (though somehow not at all funny) how this has now become a Palin VS Obama run for the Presidency. it seems we all know intrinsically that the carcass of a man heading up the republican's stab a this is going to expire within the first year. ...then again, the dark side is strong with this one (or so i'm told) McCain for Emperor '08! big up to Lucid.

    What's really real is staying clear enough about what's at stake to navigate the bullshit (yep I said it) being spun to camofladge the truth In this current chaos, we need flexible, intelligent, committed, collaborative, thoughtful leaders to match the willingness of the world to make a different world where WE all thrive. this election is about turning a corner doing 90 miles an hour and somehow being able to establish the beginning matrix of worldwide stable recovery. can I get an amen from the church ? what you willin ta do

    [quote:2d04512376="beatbroker"]funny (though somehow not at all funny) how this has now become a Palin VS Obama run for the Presidency.[/quote:2d04512376] that's because this has nothing to do with the presidency, it's just a public relations circus where the nation's TV watchers are trying to decide who to vote off the island, and campaign strategists have it easy when all they have to do is play off people's prejudices one way or the other.

    I'll do you one better. If your wife questions the morale and the character of a nation whose policies and ideology is questionable you're unpatriotic... But if your husband was previously a sympathizer with a push for Alaska to secede from the union...you're as American as apple pie.
