I thought Sarah Palin is worth 1000 female politicians.
She alone can put US on top  of list.

P.S.
Sorry Hillary,got to work on your accent.
Legalize Marijuana,I need something to calm me down after I watch Fox News.

If Jesus was alive today,Republicans would call him gay and Democrats would put him on food stamps.

Bostech, I agree, she not only is worth 1,000 MS Rodham's, she is worth a few hundred Diane Boxers too! Besides being the hottest chick in politics, can't wait for a center fold spread!

In 1980, with Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter, we had an actor v clown. Our latest election no matter how it went, was even worse. At least she would give us something a bit pleasing to look at and disconnected from McPain, I'd like to at least hear her views on REAL issues.

My fear is that she was hand picked by the republican establishment. Being a registered republican, I feel no qualms in dismissing her as anything more than another sock puppet.


I like the thoery that states those who are being called an idiot by the far left are those who present a viable threat to their ideals.

It is possible, that in some cases, the person being called an idiot simply isn't very bright.




At least she would be an attractive sock puppet.

YEP! As long as it's someone who knows the difference between sensible commuter rail and high speed rat trains.

That's all you really care about, huh?

QuoteMy fear is that she was hand picked by the republican establishment.

Far from it... her pick was an act of desperation from the McCain camp...
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

I'd like to know what it is that makes her so appealing as a candidate. She gives some shakey at best, Reaganesque soundbites about lower taxes, family, patriotism and the like, but I have yet to hear a single word of substance from her. Would I choose her over a devout Marxist? Sure.

Would I choose her over a candidate who rallies for the abolition of the IRS, against the Fed, and against the Military Industrial Complex as a tool of imperialism and globalism? nah. She has not presented herself as such, therefore she is not my candidate of choice.

The left Hates her, while FoxNews Republicans ar clamouring for more. I just don't get either side.

She carries the idiocracy vote. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/9/18/184652/680/948/603152

If her and Glen Beck team up, a new day will be upon us! 

President Comacho!

(Sigh)  OK, name calling is your specialty.  What policies do you oppose?  What proposals has she made that would be bad for the country? 

There is a serious lack of substance here, and it is in the arguments of those that oppose this woman.  She is certainly not a polished politician.  I find that to be a positive at this point.  I'll wait and see how she does over the next few elections. 

Politics is certainly a nasty business.  I'm not sure that women will be as interested in enduring mindless insults as much as men have.  The made up issues of "Palin's legs" or "Ms. Obama's arms" and of course the "bitch" label have shown that there is no lack of venom for women who aspire to political office.  This is a very depressing fact of life in our countries political discourse.  It won't change for women.

Not all I care about! Hell no! There are also streetcars, light-rail transit, electric railway technologies, Amtrak, JaxPort Railroads, Talleyrand Terminal Railroads, Jacksonville Terminal Station, High Speed Rail, subways, EL's,  Skyway's, monorails, people movers, PRT, Schweeb's, trolleys, shuttle buses, trolley buses, jitneys, motor coaches, city buses, electric buses, hybrid buses, articulated buses, airships, blimps, zeppelins, airplanes, commuter airlines, regional airlines, rail freight carriers, air freight, waterways, ships, shipping, containers, TEU's... etc...

By being single focused on this as "MY ISSUE", I think I'm being more effective. Besides someone needs to play "comic relief," and since my "spiritual gift," is sarcasm it makes for a fun day.

Other concerns, oh yeah, you'll find me defending homeless, veterans, disabled people, call girls - hookers - prostitutes - Ho's - streetwalkers, Jacksonville, Downtown, port and airport development, anti-sprawl issues, etc...

Back to the title of the thread, hell Stephen, I wouldn't mind a little "political" involvement with Palin, as in a complete study of her geography with emphasis on the Sierra Madres and Panama.
