Who would you rather have stare down the Russians:

War hero and tough coldwarrior, John McCain or "nuanced" Community Organizer, Barack Obama?  The answer is obvious for anyone with two brain cells to rub together.

How about a legislator and "nuanced" Community Organizer vs. a Gov. of Alaska who's trimphed agianst long odds  and who hunts in Alaska?  The Dems are toast w/ the Obama ticket.  And we've not even gotten to the biggest blowhard in the Senate, Joe Biden (even Obama's figuring that out now, anyone see Leno last night?)

Wasn't that a movie? Did it ever make a dime? Do you know what movie actors, creators and writers do? They put on a show, some would call it make believe, it's called acting. Much like what Obama does when he goes to the podium and reads a written script.

To think this fake American understands anything about America but it has 57 States is just stupid on it's face.

When did people begin to think that make believe is real, they need help ... Or is it just a disease that afflicts those in the acting business.

I know I have seen my share of stupid actors pontificating on things they have no knoweldeg of. That's crystal clear to the listeners.

Air up those tires, let's roll.

Fifteen years ago, working as a movie critic for a Los Angeles newspaper, Rod Lurie savaged the family movie, Free Willy, and personally attacked the character and talent of its twelve year-old star, Jason James Richter.  One small problem: Lurie had not actually seen the movie.  So, it's not surprising to hear Lurie, now a failed, frustrated writer/director, trash Governor Palin without actually seeing what she is capable of.  It's just his M.O.  Lurie can be safely written off as talentless, uncouth and hypocritical, and be simply ignored.  But, what do we do about the entire Democratic Party and its leadership who essentially feel the same way as Lurie?  I think Sarah Palin will take care them in one speech tonight.

If you've ever seen The Contender which is written and directed by Rod Lurie, you'd notice that what's happening with Sarah Palin is eerily reminiscent of what happens to the Joan Allen character in that film. Granted, the political parties are reversed and instead of her family under attack it was a manufactured sex scandal, but the story is essentially the same.

I don't mind Lurie being an ultra lib, but I have no respect for him as a filmmaker or as a person for trashing Palin after saying the whole point of that movie(both in interviews and on the DVD audio commentary) was that there should be no double standard. That women candidates should be treated exactly the same as men.

The subject line got your attention didn't it?

Before I give you the link to the article that answers that question I must disclose that I copied the subject line from the first sentence of the article. I also must disclose that it was Rush Limbaugh who recommended this article and read some excerpts on his program today.

The article was written by a former Staff Director of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Guess who has been on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for many years and who is now its Chairman. Why that 'expert' in everything foreign, the one and only Senator Joe Biden, who Barry Obama chose specifically to make up for Obama's lack of foreign experience.

The article not only answers the Palin question but asks the additional question: "SO HOW DOES the experience of Sarah Palin stack up against the experience of Joe Biden?"

Okay. You've waited long enough. Here is the link to the article written by James P. Lucier titled A Negotiator Without Preconditions.

Since we are discussing Joe Biden let me also recommend a short article on the Power Line blog titled Talkin' Joe Biden, the Foreign Relations Committee years"

The liberal media continues to sacrifice ethics and morals for the greater cause: This time for the Election of a Democrat to the Presidency of the United States.

Some would argue that it was jackie O who had an effect on Krsuchev to scale back during the cuban missle crisis. according to the History channel's president series documentary on Kennedy, Kruschev had a crush on jackie O and was notably smitten with her.

You would understand why this would be after seeing kruschev's house frau of a wife.

Those who knew K best said in the doc. that he was mesmerized by her glamour and beauty.

This is something that a man can't do, black or white. And feminity and beauty was never Hillary's strong points either.

It is one of Palin's.

Perhaps it would impress Putin if Palin were to go hunt with him???

Lurie, put that in your leftist pipe and smoke it.

 Mr.L

"The idea of any Democrat actually facing down [Vladimir] Putin and negotiating with [Dmitry] Medvedev is idiotic."

Ah, much better.
