Well BREAKING across the nation today was the news: John McCain picks
Veep- Gov. Sarah Palin! Folks, Republican's couldn't have asked for
more! I'll explain a little later...
Most analysts, on all the major networks were taken by surprise. The
only analyst who picked her was Scott Rasmussen (great pollster).
Here's why Gov. Sarah Palin is a GREAT PICK!
1. She satisfies Conservative Republicans (whether you like it or not
they ARE the Republican Base) who were apprehensive of McCain.
2. She might draw from those 18 Million female voters who are ticked
that Obama never even vetted Hillary Clinton, not to mention the sexist
treatment she received from the typical news networks.
3. Unlike Obama who has championed his campaign on "Change" and then
picks a SIX TERM Senator (Joe Biden) who is deeply entrenched in
Washington, McCain picks an "outsider" from Alaska.
4. Gov. Sarah Palin now BALANCES the "historical" possibilities factor.
Obama- the first African American nominated for President. Sarah Palin
- the first female to be nominated to the Veep spot. (She just broke
through those "18 million cracks in the glass ceiling." (Obama could
have had both, but FOOLISHLY rejected Hillary...along with her
guaranteed 18 MILLION female votes.)
These are just a few reasons...
NOW the GOP and McCain have wisely contended that Obama doesn't have
the experience needed to run the country. Democrats fired back today
saying the same of Sarah Palin. Consider the FACTS:
1. Obama has served a TOTAL of 143 days as a US Senator. (A good portion of which he has been spent on the road campaigning.)
Sarah Palin has served 1.5 terms as a State Governor (which is a microcosm of the US Presidency.)
2. Democrats CAN'T and WON'T use this argument against McCain...b/c he blows them out of the water, hence the attacks on Palin.
3. Obama has never had to submit any type of budget. Palin has, for the most energy rich state in America: Alaska.
4. Obama who is the "student," now wants to "teach." Palin is the "student" who can quickly and wisely learn from McCain.
5. Obama thought that Iran was a "tiny country" which poses no threat.
Hmmmmm...might Israel think the same? I think McCain and Palin know the
truth.
6. Obama in his speech at Invesco Field, told his supporters that
within 10 years he would cut our "addiction to foreign oil" but he
didn't mention how other than saying that he would spend 150 BILLION
dollars. Sarah Palin, knows about the energy crisis, and is in the
process of getting a natural gas pipeline to tap Alaska's rich natural
gas, and pipe it down to the 48 States.
Lastly we'll look at the Obama associations issues...
1. Obama held his first fundraiser with William Ayers a home grown
terrorist, who bombed the Pentagon with the terrorist group called the
"Weather Underground."
2. Obama also took money from Tony Rezko, who was corrupt, and found guilty of wire fraud, bribery, money laundering etc.
3. Obama sat in Rev. Jeremiah Wrights' church for 20 YEARS, while
Wright spewed his anti-American drivel such as "God DAMN America,"
blaming America for AIDS, and genocide.
4. Obama talked in his "historic" speech about being his "brother's
keeper and sisters' keeper." Obama's dad fathered 8 children by
multiple women. One of them died which leaves 7 living. One of Obama's
half brothers was tracked down to a remote slum/village near Nairobi.
His name is George who lives on LESS THAN ONE DOLLAR a month! If Obama
just gave him 24 dollars it would double what George lives on for 2
years! "Brother's keeper?!?!?!" Sure.............whatever helps you
sleep at night Obama.......
Just to name a few...
Now let's look at what McCain and Palin have done...
While Obama, experimented with drugs (which he confesses to in his
autobiography,) John McCain was being tortured in Vietnam for serving
in the US military.........seems equal...right?!?!?!?!?!
Gov. Sarah Palin, knowing and lovingly brought her youngest baby boy
(Trig) into the world...knowing full well that he would be a special
needs child (Trig was diagnosed with Downs before he was born.)
Both McCain and Palin have a record of fighting corruption, while Obama revels in it.
McCain and Palin value Human life. Obama was asked when life begins and
he replied "it's above my pay-grade." Folks, Obama is 47 years old, and
he doesn't know when life begins? Don't Democrats pride themselves on
knowing science?
I could go on and on...America wake up. Consider the choices. Seems pretty easy to me....
