Well, wow.
Alaska's Governor of a year and a half, Sarah Palin, has been tapped to run as John McCain's vice-president. This attractive "hockey mom" and her mentor SEEM to have stopped kissing George Bush's ass long enough to pretend to be "mavericks" of the Republican Party.
Again.
This gun-totin' dark-haired, pro-life Bonnie Parker is not afraid to chew moose-burger and childishly mock the likes of Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
And all the time, this plastic purveyor of GOP talking points is willing to shamelessly suggest that McCain and herself are the "real" change we need in Washington.
Ahem. Really?
Let's get one thing straight right now. I will not use the words "liberal" or "conservative". These are terms that certain med-addicted radio talk-show hosts have cleverly got us to substitute for the REAL words: "Democrat" and "Republican".
And there is poor ole Sarah Palin, looking for all the world like that middle school principal, you know, guys, the one you fantasized about when you sat in detention awaiting your "punishment". And she sternly warns you that Obama is a dangerous fool, and that SHE is what the Hillary-women-folk were waiting for.
Barack Obama is a genius. He has offered us an exquisite and eloquent escape from the last 8 years of the Bush/Cheney nightmare. You haven't forgot, have you? Waging a war on Al-Qaeda, but letting Bin Laden escape. And all due to the contrived bullshit called the War in Iraq. Which plopped our brave troops, under-manned and under-supplied, into the middle of an uncorked civil war. Which has now killed more soldiers than all the victims in the World Trade Center attacks.
You haven't forgot the last 8 years, have you? The largest loss of jobs and highest home forclosure rate since the Great Depression, the worst economy since the stock market crash of 1929. The attempt to set Constitution-busting precedents such as bailing on the WW2 Geneva Conventions about prisoner torture, and the wiretapping of ALL U.S. citizens without obtaining a warrant.
And here is the 800 pound gorilla in the room. The Republican party had virtually TOTAL control of all 4 branches of the US government FOR 8 YEARS, and McCain and Palin marched in lockstep with that party's failings. THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS LONG NIGHTMARE!!! And punished severly. Especially John McCain and that naughty Sarah Palin.
Surprise, Republicans! The "Hillary-women-folk" know the difference between the ideals of the Clintons and the Obamas (and the entire Democratic Party), and those of McBush and Palin. And they know that Palin's plans are to criminalize abortion (even in the case of rape and incest!), to ban stem-cell research, teach Biblical-Creationism in our public schools, teach ONLY abstinence rather than real sex education to our children (oh, THAT works, eh Sarah?), and the proliferation of assault weapons to any and all who wish them.
And as poor Sarah laughs at and mocks Obama in a swirl of smoke and mirrors, the 800 pound Gorilla becomes increasingly clear.
And, in November, I believe that the Hillary women are going to punish "Principal" Palin. I'm guessing they are going to spank her for being so naughty. Really hard.
