And I suppose Biden would be better! Professional liars are exactly that.

Vote for Chuck Norris in 2008!

I don't think Biden is likely to become president. I also don't think he is having himself healed by witch doctors. At every turn Palin comes across as a nutcase, a stupid nutcase.

Oh and this is my thread and I only want people to post anti-Palin comments. So there.

So how do you feel about Obama saying he has had no affiliation with ACORN. An obvious lie.

I think Palin is getting a semi-pass because of the non-viability of the ticket-- sort of like the mercy rule in women's softball.

THIS is a pretty good investigative piece that questions whether Palin's half million dollar home was built for free by the guys that built the 12 million dollar Wasilla sports facility during the same time period. I think the National spotlight is shining right on the seediest parts of the Mayor of Peyton Place. I'd be surprised if her career, let alone her ticket, can survive it.

Senator Obama has disclosed his relations with ACORN, past and present, fully. He represented them in a court case 13 years ago, a case in which ACORN was on the same side as the Justice Department and the League of Women Voters. He has given them training courses in get-out-the-vote methods, each of which involved approximately two hours of work and for which he was not paid. He knows some of their leaders from his days in community work in Chicago. That's pretty normal.

Don't buy into this All-ACORN-All-the-Time coverage that Fox and the Neo-Con attack organs are trying to put over on you. It's a political witch hunt. They're accusing ACORN of voter registration fraud -- not voter fraud, mind you, but voter registration fraud. There's a huge difference. They hired some people to register voters, who forged some forms to get more money. ACORN tagged the fraudulent forms, but they had to turn them in, by law. There is, by the way, solid evidence that fraudulent registrations are virtually never used for casting fraudulent votes.

This is all part of McCain's Weapons of Mass Distraction strategy for his campaign. He can't run on the issues, so he gives us his daily dose of media sewage to distract our attention from the fact that he doesn't have a clue.

McCain said it himself the other day: Obama is a decent man. You may disagree with him, which I can respect, but don't buy this other crap. There's nothing to it.

You mean the same ACORN that John McCone gave the keynote address for in 2006? The same ACORN that pays by the hour instead of by the registration? The same ACORN that is required by law to turn in all completed registration forms whether they seem bogus or not in just about every state? The same ACORN that singled out suspicious registrations and contacted several states regarding the suspicious registrations only to be ignored for months after making several efforts to inform states that some of the registrations were fishy (Nevada and Indiana come to mind). Yes they are a tough nut to crack....

I was watching Nixon's bio on PBS last night and so much of what went on in his campaigns in the 50's sounded familiar - the avoidance of issues through fear mongering (or as i call it FUD - Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt...and now you could add another D - Denial). I could have closed my eyes and many of the smear tactics from the GOP side could have been on CNN. While Nixon was no prize and it was his criminal behavior that disgusted many members of my family and led them to seek alternative candidates, at least he can get some points for his Foreign Policy with China and the USSR.

But of course, Palin is a Foreign Policy expert on Russia...after all she lives next to them. What next? She knows about China becasue she's had moo-shoo?

Eeek.
