Elizabeth is just as nutty as Sarah
Palin. Sarah Palin is not smart enough for a office as huge as VP. She has too many problems with ethics and she cannot even take care of her own family. They are a mess. She needs to get educated and get real!
Pam asks “Why is the media so negative to Palin and McCain?” Because they are liars and incompetent fools, THAT’S WHY! Pam, honey, I hate to break this to you, but there is no big “conspiracy to control our votes”. McCain is losing the election, so he’s stooping to smear campaigning. And that is wrong, and the media is bringing his and Palin’s unethical tactics and shady pasts to light. Plain and simple.
8 years of huge spending, economy is shot, government secrecy, scandals, lying, lost emails, Federal Prosecutor scandal, trashing the environment, corruption, people losing their homes and jobs.
Yet some people want to keep that party in control? Somehow the democrats could do worse? That’s some snow job they did on you folks.
has anyone brought up if this so called mom has her children’s best interest in mind when she has her young daughter carry around her brother (with downs syndrome mind you) around like a cabbage patch kid on stage?
Pam, Obama’s not a socialist:
Critics point to Obama’s plan to raise the top two tax rates as clear evidence of his socialist bent. However, Len Burman, director of the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center, said that while Obama “would make the tax system more progressive overall, it would not be a radical shift.”
“The answer is clearly no, Senator Obama is not a socialist,” said Paul Beck, a professor of political science at Ohio State University. “We’ve had a progressive tax system for some time, and both Republicans and Democrats have bought into it.”
Socialism involves state ownership of the means of economic production and state-directed sharing of the wealth. America’s democratic capitalist system is neither socialist nor pure free market; rather, it mixes the two, and it has at least since the progressive income tax was introduced 95 years ago. Under it, the wealthy pay higher income tax rates than those who are less fortunate do.

Why doesn’t McCain not counter the media’s rant that Palin is not experienced enough to be VP, when the last Democratic president was only the governor of Arkansas?
I used to like McCain but notice that for a couple of “Mavericks” their campaign is straight from party headquarters and in the gutter. McCain denounced such campaigning when Bush smeared hit now it’s ok. They would eat their own young to get into office. It’s sick.
The power of the internet: an avenue for the “experts” to showcase their “knowledge” to the lowly ignorants by posting the soundbites they hear/read and with such great conviction and spittle. I’m not talking about the presidential candidates.
PAM says : Robin Hood is a legitimate hero, not because he robbed from the rich and gave to the poor, but rather because he returned to the poor what lawfully belonged to them.
This distinction is what separates the just goals of Robin and his band of “Merry Men” from the dehumanizing economic theory of “redistribution of wealth”—a hallmark of socialism
Pam, George Bush just robbed from the poor again to line the coffers of Wall Street. This was $750 billion of wealth being redistributed to the bankers banks. Bush has invented a new kind of socialism, rob from the poor and give to the rich that which never belonged to them.
For the benefit of the doubt, and the sake of rational thought, please rightly consider the facts about the economic collapse and realize that your precious 5% of the population who don’t pay income tax on their income (which should bother you since you pay income tax on your income) need to!
President Obama will close the loophole for these 5% of the people.
This is disgusting.
What’s amazing is that anyone cares what she thinks. If you watch the View, she never has a reasoned argument, she is a blind faith follower. She wasn’t even entertaining on Survivor.
By the negative comment I meant you are only hearing the media bashing McCain and Palin most of the time. The media is unfair in their coverage. They are biased and pass this on to the public. If Obama is elected you will see just how for us he is. From what I can see Sarah’s family is just like mine and everyone elses family. Just because our children make their own choices that are not ideal does not make us bad parents. Just because your child chooses not to use a condom and gets pregnant does not reflect on your parenting. It has to do with being in the heat of a moment and not making a smart choice. Wow, like a normal family or person. I want someone who is living a normal life and going through the same things in life I’m going through. Not someone who acts like they have been poor and has no clue about being poor or what poor people want or need. Just talk to get elected.
Obama reminds me of all single horny guys. SAY anything, PROMISE anything to get a woman out of her pants. REMEMBER THOSE GUYS GIRLS. How did that work out for YA!
If I hadn’t already made a decision, choosing Elizabeth Hasselbeck to be the voice of the Republican Party would have made it for me. McCain’s poor choice of running mate followed by the choice of Hasselbeck as an endorsement figure shows exactly where the priorities lie. Not in presenting an intelligent platform with real issues, but with the glitz and powder puff of nonsense that far too many people consider worthy of notice. You may have noticed Hasselbeck parroting not only the words of Palin, but the actions- notice the puckered lips when making what she thinks is a valid point. Oh well.. just my thoughts…wink wink
I’ll tell you who is nutty. Pink, Matt Damon, Paris Hilton, etc. in hollywood who is “scared” of Palin. Shouldnt it be those people that we are scared of, people who make sex videos public or have pink hair and dress like sluts. Obama is a superstar thats all, rap singers have been writing about him in their lyrics for years, but I guess America wants to listen to these rappers, the ones who sing about drugs and alcohol and killing and sex when we pick our next president. Thats really reassuring!!!!!!!!
Palin and Hasselbeck have moral beliefs unlike the mentioned above who support Obama!!!!
