George Bush a governor for 8 years, supposedly had "executive experience", and look where that got us!  Maybe that should not be such a criteria for one to be a President and must look to other attributes and characteristics like intelligence, wisdom, judgment and temperment in picking our presidents.  The ability to put people first before party and the ability to unite Americans and not divide us.

For Instance, McCain is a big gambler, loves the gaming tables at Las Vegas, which media was well aware of and are just now coming out with after his gamble of the Sarah Palin pick.  Is this not a characteristic which should have been made known beforehand.  I think the American people have the right to know that McCain has this Vice and whether they want a President who does not have the fortitude to withstand the gaming table!  

GOP through the unveiling of Sarah Palin are trying to sell us a bill of goods and mislead the public like they did about the Iraq War!  There were no WMD's and Sarah Palin is not the Reformer and the Experienced Leader they are trying to portray her -- sell her as.  When did we Americans start Confusing a staged event (drama) with Reality, the truth for a lie!

Franklin Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln were not Governors and therefore allegedly had no Executive Experience and yet they were our greatest Presidents!

Republicans belittle community organizers which is a public servant because they do not believe in serving the Public only the wealthy.  To be a President means to be the greatest of Public Servants.

GOP Family Values?  Yet for 10 years they voted no to the minimum wage for working mothers and families and only after Democrats gained control was minimum wage passed!  Yet every year they make sure they get their Raises!

GOP Family Values:  Yet they will not approve an affordable health care plan for all Americans, yet they have great health care for themselves.  That would be too much like a government give away but its ok for them to get the government give away.

GOP loves to talk about putting country first, prosperity, the flag and in Reality they do nothing but talk and leave our the action.  They have fooled Americans for years with talk and no action on behalf of the people.  For years under GOP rule the country has declined in economic promise for the everyday family, college education has soared and unreachable for many young people who are intelligent and eager to learn.  GOP knows that an intelligent public means they cannot get away with their lies for a higher education trains one to "think for themselves".  They do not want people to think but to follow them blindly.  Like sheep going to the slaughter!  We must not let them sell us this empty bill of goods again.

It is time for us, those who care deeply for this country, to Expose the Myth, the lie and the deceptions of the Republican party.  Pull the curtain back on the Wizard of Oz and expose them for what they are frauds and  pretenders, who really have no answers at all.

For instance I heard one GOP opertive say after Sarah Palin's speech "When we need leaders the most they step up?  Really they read a prepared speech on a teleprompter in front of an adoring crowd and this makes one a leader?  We Americans have to stop letting these GOP operatives sell us these empty bill of goods and fill our heads with lies which are not based on reality or truth!   We must see clearly the path ahead and not be lead down the wrong path, like Iraq where Bin Ladin does not live.  We are at a fork in the road.  Can you see the two paths -- one keeping you on the same path of illusion, fear, war and spiraling poverty -- the other to increased, peace, prosperity, good health and unity.  We must choose correctly!
