<<...is completely unqualified, and shows very little intellectual capacity...>>

 And how did you, of "we on the left" arrive at this profound conclusion?  That Gov. Palin show "little intellectual capacity? Did you look at her college transcripts? What a cheap, pathetic insult.

Since "we on the left" are complaining about her, and the worthless creeps in the lamestream media are in panic-mode, trying their darndest to discredit the lady with their usual stupid tactics, I'd say that John McCain made the right choice.  "We on the left" stand a very, very good chance of getting snookered big time in November.

Puppetmaster Obama knows all too well that it may be all over for him, and he's panicking as well.

Exactly how do you know that Palin has no intellectual capacity and is completely unqualified? Because your buddies on the left say so?

That's about as intellectually honest as another lefty here who said the fact that Obama built the best camgaign organization proved that he was qualified to be President (because he couldn't come up with any other reason).

Palin only "might" become President if McCain wins. Obama the Unqualified WILL be President on Day One if he wins. Even some in his own party said he wasn't ready, including his VP pick, Joe Biden!

I will, however, commend you on leaving her daughter out of your criticism.

rather extreme word choices. Even I wouldn't be 'completely' unqualified (although, I admit, I have not given a speech about hope and change to adoring crowds and am not a bestselling author, writing about that most fascinating subject, ME).

So, is Diane Sawyer "completely unqualified" to be a news anchor even though she is a national Junior Miss pageant winner?

What is your basis for stating she "shows very little intellectual capacity"? Do you really think she has an IQ of 60?

Clearly you don't get it. The woman took on Big Politics and SHE WON. And we love her for it.

That she's a woman is a bonus, because it just makes the libs so flustered. She totally knocks the air out of the snide Leftie remark that Republican women are all prolife because nobody'd want to do to them what it takes to get them pregnant in the first place. (Recall Craig Ferguson's "naughty librarian vibe"? Clearly there's more men than just Sarah's husband who find her attractive. There goes another theory, nu? As if Patricia Heaton didn't already knock it out of the water.)

A hot prolife babe. That sends the lefties choking on their spittle every time!

You know what... I don't think I did, so I'll offer it now.  It was a bonehead pick.  Biden has a well-documented track record of saying the wrong thing at the right time, and it has cost him dearly time and time again.  Now it's going to cost Obama.  Biden's pick was foolish.

Cool, I was going to post pretty much the same thing, but I won't duplicate.

But I will say that that's the way things used to be done. A girl got pregnant, they got married. Sometimes they ended up divorced, and sometimes they stayed married for decades.

OMG!!!  I can't believe what I am reading!  Are some people so desperate to see McCain get elected that they have now justified in their minds that letting your daughter get married at 17, to an 18-yr old with little education and no career, is good parenting and judgement?  How "enlightened" does someone have to be to not see that letting kids get married and try to raise a kid these days with nothing but a public school education and a limited job market is a really bad idea?

I passed 40 a long time ago, and yes I remember when marrying at 17 was no big deal.  But that was back when you could go from HS to a job that you could go into at entry level and grow up into management without fears of downsizing or layoffs.  Those jobs are few and far between these days, and most jobs that pay enough to raise a family in a decent lifestyle require a college diploma or 10 years or so of experience.  Maybe if you're living in a trailer in Alabama and your kid gets pregnant at 17 it's a good idea to get her married off, but for the governor of Alaska?  I'm no governor, but if my daughter had gotten pregnant at 17 she would have been able to abort the child, let the child be adopted, or let the child be raised by my wife and I until my daughter got herself on her feet.  But no way in hell would I let her pass on college and her future to marry some 18-year old kid who wouldn't be able to support her or their child.

It used to be that Republicans were actively against teen pregnancy and having teen parents try to raise kids when there was no way they could afford to... but that was before they started skewering more and more sacred beliefs in the name of getting McCain elected.
