Pretty thin skinned dodge there, binky. I asked a reasonable question to your earlier comment, and you can't answer, so you whine, and piss about how you can't respectfully criticize Palin? No one said you couldn't do that honestly and respectfully, yet you take the skin flint notion that somehow you're the one offended?

Grow up.

You think she displayed unethical behavior in ‘Tazergate’, and opine that she would similarly “abuse” her power as POTUS, and yet you would like her to grow into the position of POTUS.

I think you speak out of both sides of your mouth.

Thanks. I am civility personified. Modesty, not so much.

Perhaps. Adieu!

...and you think Rabadash is a good person...

Hey, I don't even know who John Galt is, and now you spring some other guy on me. Who is Rabadash?

I'm not sure what tazergate is and don't recall ever saying she would abuse anything. I share her values. My only criticism is that she needs more experience before giving her the most difficult job in the world.

Are you confusing me with someone else, or was I drunken posting again? :)

So then I should demand the resume of every doctor, nurse, teacher, etc. to see if they fit your timeframe of success? Ok, got it. Thanks.

You don't really have to. I have to have my degree and have passed my boards and maintain my continuing education credits. I also have to have a state criminal background check, A federal FBI fingerprinting check, and a child abuse check that requires every address I have lived in and every person I have lived with since 1975. I have to have a two-step TB test, a recent tetinus shot, hep-b vaccine, MMR, drug screen, current cpr certification and references. You can also check my license status on-line to see if I have any confirmed instances of abuse, neglect, or criminal activity.

Doctors are very similar in their requirements.

Government is very good at regulating thins except politicians.

But that is no indication of how good a nurse you are. There are some pretty dumb nurses out there, as well as teachers. Touting a government check isn’t saying much. The government can’t even keep track of who’s here legally/illegally.

Some of the dumbest on earth, but you can check them out. We can't even tell you a patient's name without possibly losing our licenses.

What was Palin's GPA in highschool or college?

Why won't she say?

Wow, I don't know of any employer who asks for GPA anymore. This is a ridiculous comparison, honestly. Obama, Carter and Clinton are (allegedly) the most intelligent Presidents we've ever had. And look what a bang up job they're doing.

As I said before, all the book learning in the world doesn't mean a damn thing if you don't have common sense and practical experience.

And I pose the same argument to you as before: how many here on FR would rather have a nurse who has spent all her time getting an advanced degree and no practical (clinical, etc.) experience, or a nurse who has years of experience treating patients?

Almost ALL employers ask for GPA's for new grads, and transcrpts. My boss won't hire a new grad that has EVER had a "D".

People are always saying that we don't know anything about 0bozo. True. Has Palin released her medical records, GPA, or released a copy of her birth cirtificate? Has she used pot or cocaine? Does she believe in sex before marriage?

I have been in the workforce since I was 18, corporate world since 25 and not once was I ever asked for my GPA or transcripts. And they were pretty good.

That post was more of the same. You have nothing. Palin has had 100 times more investigation done on her than on Obama. She has NO skeletons. She was cleared on EVERY one of those ethics charges.

RIDICULOUS, filed-to-bankrupt-her ethics charges.

Tell Mitt “HI”.

(MaggieCarta, although hampered by an extreme power outage, finds her way to an unattended (and working) computer. Suddenly, out of nowhere, the rightful owner appears. Boy, is he cheesed. A fierce scuffle ensues. MC's muffled cry sounded like: "Mffpf...Let go! Let me go, I said!")

Must...not...post...on...Palin...Threads....

***You're delusional***

You call yourself a hospice nurse, what gives you the knowledge to diagnosis a delusional...Thats not your area of expertise...

A 4 year degree nurse is always the most ignorant when she finally hits the hospitals..I had one actually admit, we all know how to write great papers, but please remove the NG tube as I have never done it. It was part of her job description and I knew that but made sure she asked while I stood at bedside and handed her back the note she handed to me....I removed the NG tube she was terrified of...Length of education does not make one the best of anything, only the one with most years in school..

There use to be a 3 year diploma nurse and she always head and shoulders above the 4 year degree nurse....In fact a 2 year associate degree nurse was better prepared for hospital work that a nurse that took oddles of classes that have nothing to do with nursing...

Since all 3, associate degree, 3 year diploma and 4 year degree nurse all took the same boards, those with the higher degree do not necessilary make the best nurses...

But the politic's of nursing fazed out practical nurses and demanded 4 year degrees so as to upgrade the pay scale....had 2 teachers in my nursing courses say that.

Get off your high horse, your not better than anyone else..
