We have a major deficit and other things to deal with, and Sarah Palin is simply a distraction away from the real issues.
Get with it. Get on the real issues and stop throwing out stupid roadblocks.
Forget her. Focus on what matters here.

Nice rebuttal of the OP! :)
Another post bashing Sarah Palin by BC. Not surprising seeing as how BC feels about Palin but regardless how you feel about Palin BC, in the real world, Sarah Palin was more qualified to be Vice President than Obama is to be President. Hopefully this country will survive Obama"s ineptness.
7 out of 10 have said she wasn't qualified. Go figure.

Poll no present to Palin on her birthday
Posted: February 11th, 2010 04:37 PM ET
As Sarah Palin marks her birthday, a new national poll indicates that 7 out of 10 Americans feel that she is not qualified to be president.
Washington (CNN) - As Sarah Palin marks her birthday, a new national poll indicates that 7 out of 10 Americans feel that she is not qualified to be president.
According to an ABC News/Washington Post survey, 71 percent of the public say the former Alaska governor is not qualified to serve in the White House, with 26 percent saying the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee is qualified to be president. The 26 percent who say Palin is qualified is down 12 points from an ABC News/Washington Post poll from November.
Twenty-eight percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey from November indicated that Palin was qualified, with 7 in 10 feeling she was not qualified to be president.

No one is going to have a hissyfit Pookie. Irregardless of polls, Sarah Palin was more qualified to be Vice President then Obama is qualified to be President. I say this because Palin has had governing experience first as Mayor and then as Governor. Obama had no governing experience before becoming President and that reality has become very clear this first year of his Presidency.

Where else, though, can you get hope and change on such a grand scale?
So 7 out of 10 Americans are wrong. Who'd a thunk it?
Let's see what happens.

Apparently a majority thought that the idiot president we have now WAS qualified, and they were wrong.

Polls are so easily manipulated that it depends on whose doing the polling. Some polls are just not to be taken seriously. Be that as it may, Palin was still more qualified to be Vice President because of her governing experience then Obama is to be President, with zero governing experience.

Any credibility she had to complain about what terms people can and cannot use vanished at that point. What a hypocrite.
Quote:Palin also used her platform to continue a call for the president to rid himself of his closest advisers. On Attorney General Eric Holder, she labeled his handling of captured terrorists -- "allowing them our U.S. constitutional protections when they do not deserve them" -- a firing offense. On Chief-of-Staff Rahm Emanuel, she said his comments calling liberal groups "f-ing retards" was "indecent and insensitive" and cause for his dismissal.
But the former governor went to great and sometimes awkward lengths to insist that when conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh used the same exact term to describe the same exact group, it was simply in the role of political humorist.
"They are kooks, so I agree with Rush Limbaugh," she said, when read a quote of Limbaugh calling liberal groups "retards." "Rush Limbaugh was using satire ... . I didn't hear Rush Limbaugh calling a group of people whom he did not agree with 'f-ing retards,' and we did know that Rahm Emanuel, as has been reported, did say that. There is a big difference there."
Incredible.
I guess if one comes right down to it, there aren't that many people in the public eye that aren't hypocrites at one time on another. If indeed Palin was being a hypocrite in this instance, she joins a long, long, long, long list of others. I just wonder that in the future if you will be as quick to criticize Democrats that are guilty of hypocrisy as you have been to accused Palin of.
