Y''ALL REALLY NEED TO GET A LIFE OF YOUR OWN AND STOP HARASSING THE KIDS. THEY ARE NOT THE ONES HAVING ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE PRESIDENCY OR VICE PRESIDENCY, THEREFORE YOU WOULD DO WELL TO REMIND YOURSELVES THAT YOU WERE KIDS ONCE. NOT EVERY PARENT CAN CONTROL THE ACTIONS OF THEIR CHILDREN AND THEREFORE IS NOT 100% RESONSIBLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE DAUGHTER IS 5 MONTHS ALONG AND THAT SARAH WAS JUST PUT UP FOR VP. THE KIDS HAVE HAD ENOUGH TIME TO DECIDE WHAT THEY WANTED TO DO. AS REFERRED TO IN HIS "MY SPACE" PAGE, AT HIS AGE NOT WANTING KIDS IS A USUAL STATEMENT FOR MOST, IT DOESN''T MEAN HE NEVER WANTED ANY.

Denies Global Warming is man made. Talk about out of touch.

She campaigned against a) protected salmon streams form pollution from mines. She has pushed a law suit against a decision to list polar bears as a threatened species.

And now I understand she had an affair. So much for christian values.

She is a disgrace and Iam a woman. She thinks that just cause she has a skirt. I will vote for her? She has limited relevant experience as it was gained in Alaska state with 600,000 people which is the size of Jacksonville, Fla or the size of Little Rock Arkansas. By the way Arkansas has 2.8 million lives. She is under investigation for abuse of power which is probably true as its not the first time. She fired a Police Officer in Wasilla under a cloud of similar concerns. She stated that "It was Gods will to invade Iraq". Not it should just stop there. Her pastor stated to the church that if a folks voted for Kerry in 2004 they would go to hell. She tried to fire a librarian in Wasilla for not removing books she wanted removed. Due to outcry from the public she withdrew her termination letter. SHe is a disgrace.

Wow. He looks kinda like the guy in the freecreditreport.com commercials.

"I knocked up my dream girl,
I knocked up my dream girl,
But she didn''t tell me that her Mom was The Gov,
So instead of playing poker with my drinking buddies,
I''m locked in a hotel with Secret Service above..."

Poor guy. He is now practically forced to marry this girl. Does anyone think that he really wants to marry her?

Why was the DNC comentaries made by "journalists" with enthusiasm and possitive feedback but Katie Curic seems almost asleep tonight? I haven''t made up my mind yet but over the last 2 days with the focus being on Ms. Palins child instead of her I am inclined to vote Mccain.
Why? If all they can say about her is she has a bull headed strong willed child who got pregnant but has the decency and love to have the baby, not give it up than she must be a decent person.
Leave her kids alone. If you can''t focus on her, than you are no better than the preacher Obama listened to for 20 years but didn''t agree with

From NBC''s Domenico Montanaro
ST. PAUL, Minn. -- Mike Huckabee made the claim that Palin got more votes running for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, than Joe Biden got running for president of the United States.

For the record, Joe Biden got 79,754 total votes in the Democratic primaries.

As of the 2000 census, the population of Wasilla was 5,469. It has been reported at currently more than 9,000.

That would mean, conservatively, the entire town of Wasilla would have had to have had a 100% turnout for nine years at 9,000 to top Biden''s primary numbers

Come on people, if Palin was a democrat, the same statements would be made but all the names would flip exactly 100%. The whole partisan political thing is so hilarious. Why can''t anyone figure out that both parties have agreed to blame each other loudly for every problem because then everybody is so busy choosing sides that they fail to notice we are all getting S.C.R.E.W.E.D. Vote out everyone and start over. It''s time that the We the People had decent representation in DC.

The supermarket tabloid also deals with the pregnancy of Palin''s 17-year-old daughter, Bristol, which the governor acknowledged Monday. The tabloid quotes an insider as saying that the governor wanted to announce that Bristol was expecting and had set a wedding date before McCain went public with his vice-presidential choice. But, the story says, the baby''s father, high school student Levi Johnston, balked at the plan.


LOL! It sure sounds like the redneck wants to get married.

Roh-roh

The Enquirer, which exposed John Edwards''s extramarital affair, cited unnamed sources in alleging that the Alaska governor had an affair with a business associate of her "fisherman husband," Todd Palin -- the story doesn''t say when -- and that he found out and severed relations with the man.

NBC news pointed out that town where all the "executive" experience came from was less than half the size of the airport in Dallas.

Sarah Palin:

-Belives Creationism should be taught in schools, not evolution;
-Believes that women shouldn''t have the right to choose; even in cases of rape and incest or severe medical indications;
-Believes that citizens should have the right to bear AK-47s;
-Believes only in abstinence education; despite the fact that her daughters have been having unprotected ***;
-Has only been out of the country once in her life and that was just last year;
-Was mayor of a small town with fewer than 6000 residents with a budget of less than 12 million a year and fewer than 50 city hall employees;
-Is governor of a state that is closer to Russia than to Florida;
-Was part of a group that wanted Alaska to succeed from the Union
-Is being investigated for 2 state employee firing scandals

And this woman could be our next vice president and possibly our president?!?!?!?!?

Seriously though, if she thinks it''s "god''s will" to start WW3, which seems to be what this wacky "church" preaches, then I think keeping her as far away from the Oval Office as possible would be very wise. Maybe a room with mattresses where she can speak in tongues until her heart''s content w/o hurting anyone.
