Not Me

Commentary: Time for Palin to put up or shut up - CNN.com: "Countless folks have said that we all know McCain, and it s necessary to scrutinize every aspect of Obama. Really? I think if you ask the average person, they ll know a lot more about Obama's childhood than McCain, solely by the level of scrutiny."

Yeah, I know all about Obama's childhood. I know he's partly white and partly black, was raised muslim in Indonesia, attended terrorist training camps, piloted both of the 9/11 planes into the twin towers, once shot a man just for snoring, and then went to Hawvawd law school. Yeah, everbody knows about Hussein's childhood.

McCcCcain's childhood... well, I think most of his childhood was learning how to make fire and at night he was draw pictures on the cave's walls. Then he went to military schools in the USA and ended up at the Naval Academy.

As for Palin, no idea where this idea of her just needing to show up came from, but seems odd after hearing how badly she did in an interview with Katy Curic. I didn't see the interview, but my very biased Obama-loving friend says Palin looked really stupid in the interview. So, hearsay yeah, but this isn't a courtroom.

Biden, I think he's a really nice guy and has always seemed very genuine. Even when he's wrong about something he believes, at least you know he's sincere about it, that it matters to him, but that he's not going to hate you if you disagree with him. I think he'd be a really good president, kinda Reganesque, if he simply wouldn't always follow the Democrat's platform even when they're totally wrong. Even on personal issues, saying many times that the truck driver who collided with his now-deceased wife's car was drunk at the time, is simply wrong. If you get something that momentous in your life wrong or mixed up, where I would think ever factoid would matter and where I would have been on that truck driver's ass until fully proscecuted, then I'm reluctant to beleive anything you say. Not because I think you're a liar or that you're trying to deceive, but that you simply get things mixed up and thoughts of what might be, become facts to you.

So, where's Ralph Nader in these debates? He's probably the only one that actually tells the honest truth about everything. But, I'm reluctant to vote for a 60 y/o virgin.

Anyway, who cares how any of these people grew up. What matters now is if any of them can hurt the country more than what GW would with another 4 years. The answer is probably no, but of the three, Hussein is more likely to screw up because of his lack of understanding of international matters, like when the US speaks to you, it's recognizing you. For Hussein to not understand that or at least the implications of it, a Hawvawd law graduate... something's fishy or very wrong. Either way, the guy is a total newb and surprisingly dumb for someone supposedly so smart. I fail to see the reason for the excitement of his proponents, all I hear from him is sound bite statements, talking about how things should be but nothing about how to get there. McCcCcCcain... not much better than Hussein but at least he knows how everthing works in Washington and around the world, so that gives him the edge over Obama even if Palin turns out to be a total idiot.
