Wonder Woman!

From Article: "I'm pleased that the future of the GOP is coming a little early."

So am I.

I would just like to mention that our women look better, and have more class, than the worn out liberal hags.

The Dems are going for the throat before the paint’s dry on the shingle. Too much too fast, total overreach, and total hypocrisy. It will backfire big.

So....is this investigation re: firing of Trooper Wooten current or in the past? The press reports I’ve seen say she is (present tense) under investigation.

She has more executive experience than even her running mate, John McCain.

As has repeatedly been pointed out to me, McCain has over two decades as a naval officer, retiring as a captain - that certainly provides a modicum of executive experience.

"Sarah Palin has had more executive experience, meaning experience in running either a business or a government, than either Barack Obama or his running mate, Joe Biden. She has more executive experience than even her running mate, John McCain."

That's what I already said on several of the threads this evening. Furthermore, Governor Palin has more executive experience than the three Senators (McCain, Obama and Biden), combined.

There are plenty of good looking liberal women!

[chaos_5]

Sure, but do they have class?

[Liberty Valance]

Is conservatism being criminalized? Absolutely.
Be on the look out for @$$holes.

[Salvation]

Go, Sarah!

[jws3sticks]

As my six year old granddaughter would say, "Now that's what I'm talking about!"

From what I recall, she's the mother of five well fed children. No need for pant suits for her.

That John McCain does have a good eye for women.

And talk about eyes. WOW!

Very good piece. I have only one minor disagreement with the article:

“Third - “Palin used her position as Governor to get back at the man whom her sister was divorcing, and fired the man who refused to fire her sister’s ex-husband”. This is the slimiest attack that the Democrats and the media will launch.”

Unfortunately, I’ve already seen two other attacks that rank higher on the sleaze-o-meter for me.

1) The smear that her youngest child is actually her grandaughter’s, and is being ‘hidden’ to protect her daughter’s honor.

2) Democratic Congressman and professional slimeball Robert Wexler is trying to insinuate Palin is a Nazi sympathizer by linking her to Pat Buchanan.

AAAARRRGGGHHH My Eyes!!

So sorry! Special goggles may help!

Another one making the rounds is that Palin left Wasilla $20 million in debt. This is widely being circulated around the internet with no facts to make a judgment on. While it might be true, what are the underlying circumstances? The Democrats aren’t offering any.

[ricks_place]

I have seen monsterous attacks on Sarah Palin’s daughter. Adult attempts to ruin a minor girl must be or should be illegal. Obama cheated Hillary to get nominated and now cyber attacks a girl to win office. Obama must hate women. Obama is horrible.

[George Smiley]

Don't know, but the blogosphere has thoroughly investigated it. It appears from fairly intense scrutiny that there's no "there" there.
