Perfect! Thanks bud

Thanks for posting this.

I like this one:

“Family Affairs: {Obama} Often says, “I am my brother’s keeper”; Brother lives in a hut in Nairobi on $12 per year”

I didn’t see it under experience, but if it’s not there, they should add the Annenberg project which spent big bucks and was a complete failure. Plus it seems to give Obama heartburn.

This is very eye-opening...

bump

Her ‘military’ experience should include both:

The Alaska governor commands the Alaska National guard.

Also, Alaska maintains a state militia, the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF). This force is federally recognized, but is separate from the National Guard and reports to the Governor of Alaska as Commander-in-Chief. They service the state exclusively, especially when the National Guard is deployed and unavailable.

Thanks

Nice, for some reason mine didn’t stick in the table divisions.

Excellent Post!

LOL ya beat me, but MINE has the cute little outlined boxes...Nyah nyah....

PALIN Rocks!

Where is the McCain vs. Obama chart?

We are voting for VP now?

obama is “hollywood” jack vincennes.

“the two of you should take a photographer”~~LA confidential

Thanks

Excellent points! After looking at this, you just have to come to this conclusion.... The MSM and the MUSLIM have SOME F-ing nerve questioning Palin’s experience... They are DESPICABLE

bUMP

NICE chart!

A comparison, that our VP pick has more qualifications than their p pick. lol p Picker! Opps, sry!

You’re missed the point... It’s to show the MSM’s hypocrisy in questioning Palin’s experience, while giving H a free ride.

Thanks to your side-by-side listing of credentials, I now have a new tagline.

What a self-absorbed pathetic LOSER Bambi looks like when compared to a real DOER.

thank you.

But there’s no mention of BO’s magical banking committee? What about his invention? The air pressure gauge that creates energy. He’s an inventor, I tell you!

RE: your tagline

“Ah hell, there’s always a catch.”

Sorry all, I’m in a rage today... To have Pelosi say that this choice was worse than Quayle shows what a disgusting PIG she is

I read this and though it is a little biased it sure shows a stark contrast.
Those initial comments by obamma lamma ding dongs crew sure ring hollow. This babes resume is heads and shoulders better than the “messiah”.
Sarah Palin for president, John McCain for V.P. Obamma for “community organizer?.

thank you.

Good find!

Speaking ability

Beautifully executed initial stump speech in Dayton, OH hockey arena without a teleprompter

An enter...wait--did you say without a teleprompter??

She believes what she says...quite unlike the hypocrite "The Zero"!

Is there a Community Organizer’s Hall of Fame, and, if so, who are its members?

This is especially cogent and well-written.

I would normally italicize an interesting portion, but I cannot. (I would italicize the entire piece.)

Expect Jeff Emanuel's side-by-side comparison to be much-forwarded in the coming days.

Oh, one more thing.

Here we have the TOP of the Dem ticket standing in the shadow of the VEEP of the GOP ticket. That comparison, alone, is worth its weight in Moose Stew.

.

Runs marathons. Holy Shnikeees! She’s the babe of steel.

That’s a good one!

I signed up for an email from redstate and there is not a day goes by that they don’t have the best information that is rarely found anywhere else.

If I read nothing else, I read redstate

"Here we have the TOP of the Dem ticket standing in the shadow of the VEEP of the GOP ticket. That comparison, alone, is worth its weight in Moose Stew."

Here's another comparison that's worth its weight in Moose Stew:

vs

Pelosi is just nasty because PALIN is a better LOOKER than she is and no plastic needed!!!!

We are voting for VP now?

I posted elsewhere that the race now seems to be between Palin (VP) and Obama (Pres.) and it looks like McCain and Biden are now in the back of the bus. The democrats must really be afraid of her, their attacks have been nothing but vicious.

Gotta see this ping!

Click on the youtube link in my tagline to hear DNC chairman Don Fowler laugh at the thought of a hurricane hitting New Orleans.

Post of the month!

Thanks!

Good thread!

Wow, what a scumbag... Let’s see if the MSM gives this any play

We are voting for VP now?

Our mother of 5 Veep candidate has already kicked their empty suit Presidential candidate's azz.

Yes, we want uh O defending his record against hers. Biden & Mac can fetch sandwiches and coffee.

Nope, but the lefties are trying to portray Sarah as not being fit for the position- especially when it comes to needing to step into the number one position. I had a good laugh this morning when my liberal sister tried to tell me that Palin can never succeed as VP because she has a family, AND a baby with DS. I LOVE the IRONY! I thought those kind have been screaming about not having equal rights with men in the work force, and now this time it’s wrong (because it’s the wrong party!) BWAHAHAHAHA! This will be fun!

Sarah Palin

Barack Obama
