What you think you know about Sarah Palin

I can't stand it when people say "I like Sarah Palin.". Really? What do you like? That she is a woman? Yes, she is,but that alone is not good enough, seriously. And furthermore voting for ANYONE because they are Pro Life, (or Pro Choice for that matter) is the DUMBEST reason ever to vote for someone. It says absolutely nothing about their qualifications, the old lady who lives next to me is Pro Life, does that mean she is qualified to run the country? Hell no! And neither is Sarah Palin.

So what is it that you like about her? Is it:

1. That she is under investigation for abuse of power after only two years in office? Do NOT tell me she authorized the investigation, because she DIDN'T. She hired her own investigator after they formed a commission.

2. That her son is in the service? Firstly she is insuring that he won't be in Iraq long by blabbing it all over the T.V., she has insured he won't be safe and thus will be sent home. Secondly he HAD to join because he got in trouble and was given the choice to sign up, not so patriotic now, huh?

3. That she is the mother of five? Bristol didn't even live with her, she was living with her Aunt in Anchorage. Now was this because she was pregnant, or can Sarah not handle her own kids? Track lived in Michigan, supposedly for hockey. More like Bull Hockey! He was already on a prestigious team in Alaska, Junior All Stars, or something like that, and see above for the other reason.

4.Is it for her "Family Values"? She was already pregnant with Track when she got married. Supposedly she wanted to save money by having a small wedding, more like she was in a big fat hurry to get married.

5.Is it because she is a good public speaker? She was a newscaster, she can read copy off a TelePrompter all day long. Look at her interview with Katie Couric and she looks like a MORON.

6. Is it because she is so smart? Again look at the Katie Couric Interview, or anyone of several other interviews. She made a reference to making laws against abortion. WOW, did she skip government class? The Executive Branch doesn't not make laws, dumbass. Could they stack the Supreme Court in order to overturn Roe V. Wade, absolutely, but make laws, not quite.

7. Is it because she is an powerful woman? She doesn't believe in equal pay for women. Unbelievable! How would she feel if when she became Governor they paid her less than the previous Governor, because she was a woman, and no other reason. Any woman with any sense believes in equal pay.

8. Is it because she stopped the bridge to nowhere? Well check your facts children! She didn't say no until the Federal Government pulled their funding for it and Alaska was going to have to foot the bill. When we were paying for it she was totally behind it, in fact it was part of her platform.

9. Is it her "experience". Well to start with she ruins McCain's main criticism of Obama, which was a lack of experience. When she became mayor of Wasilla, they had ZERO debt, when she left they had 6 MILLION dollars of debt, million!! And under her government they started charging rape victims for their own rape kits, even though the Federal Government provides funds for exactly that (thanks to Joe Biden, P.S.).
Isn't that nice?

10. Is it because she sold the Governors Jet on Ebay? Well she didn't, again check your facts children, it did not sell on Ebay. They sold it through a broker, and it wasn't just for the Governor, it hurt the Corrections Department because they used it to transport prisoners to other states, due to overcrowding.

11. Is it her foreign policy experience, you know since she can see Russia from her doorstep? Well she can't, several journalist have tried, and it just isn't so. What a surprise another lie coming out of Sarah Palin's mouth. I'm wearing my surprised face!!

12. Is it for her prowess in government issues? Well I know where she showed a lot of prowess. When she was Mayor of Wasilla she secured 27 MILLION dollars of Federal money for a town of 6500 people. Alaska gets more Federal money than any other state and Palin tops even those numbers. So not only is she a beauty Queen she is the Queen of Pork Barrel spending, something McCain supposedly abhors.

13. Is it because of her "experience" as commander in chief of the National Guard? The ONLY thing she is authorized to do it mobilize them in time of Natural Disasters or Emergencies. Other wise she has absolutely no power or authority.

It's all smoke and mirrors folks, if you bother to educate yourself you will see what a joke this woman is.

I am sure I could go on and on, but please people stop saying you like her!!
