Like mother like son GOP watch: Bush warned of Palin? A new book by a former White House speechwriter contends that former President George W. Bush warned the party before John McCain picked Sarah Palin. "This woman is being put into a position that she is not even remotely prepared for," Bush said, per Matt Latimer's book, "Speechless: Tales of a White House Survivor." Bush: Palin Isn't Qualified to Be President HE 'THINKS LESS' OF MCCAIN FOR CHOOSING HER, SAYS CONFIDANT Former President George Bush doesn't believe Sarah Palin is qualified to be president and thinks less of John McCain for choosing her as his running mate, a confidant tell the New York Daily News. "Naming Palin makes Bush think less of McCain as a man," said a GOP official close to Bush. "He thinks McCain ran a lousy campaign with an unqualified running mate, and destroyed any chance of winning by picking Palin."
Thank you. One of the more sensible remarks made on this thread. She's fit to be president alright...of the PTA. Actually no, she'd probably tell all the girls to be mavericks and pop out those babies. Better than pregnancy termination, unthinkable act of evil that that is. I just figured out why Maverick74 started this thread: he wants a good argument against one of those two thieves who appropriated his username. She couldn't stop calling herself and running-mate a maverick throughout the campaign of '08. In addition to being embarrassed for the country, uh, the world...the human race, I felt devastated for Maverick74, whose good name was being sullied with every successive inane remark she uttered, and there were plenty of them. The bottom line is that we don't need a specific reason to vote for anyone but Palin. As citizens of a democracy (technically speaking), we have the right to vote for anyone we want, for any reason we want. However, the fact of her extraordinary stupidity, ignorance, medieval values, and quitter's spirit, are all good reasons to avoid electing her.
Where apparently his grades were so good that he was forced to seal them from the public, so as not to shame us mere mortals.
I don't think Palin released her school records either Obama getting into Columbia University suggest he got good grades Obama getting into Harvard University Law School suggest he got good grades Obama graduating Harvard Law magna cum laude proves he got good grades there Palin first went to school at a private school,she then went to a community college.She then went to a 4 year University,then back to a community college,then back to a 4 year University. I don't know her reasons ,but the 2 most common reasons a student leaves a 4 year school to go to a community college is because of money or they flunked out of the 4 year school and had to go to a community college to get their grades back up Considering she went to a private school , she went to schools in Hawaii,Alaska and Idaho and comes from a middle class family, I doubt it was money
Good post. However, liberals have already articulated those ideas, both in the media and here at ET. The attendant vitriol to which you are alluding stems from the fact that Palin's involvement in politics is an insult to thinking adults. Perhaps not in so many words, you seem to generally agree that Palin is indeed a moron. As an aside, then, what does that tell you about the Tea Party, for whom she is their darling?
So she has more in common with Dumbo that I thought, damn. Either that or affirmative action. Then you'd think he'd be proud to show his school records, yet he's not. Why?
Trying to equate Palin's academic credentials to those of Obama tells people everything they really need to know about you. Just out of curiosity, does it not shame you at all to mock your president's name in the manner than you do, quite apart from what you may think of him? I believe you know my sentiment towards Palin, and yet I manage to call her by her name. And I'm not even American. What, exactly, are you?
No, should it? That's really ALL you needed to say. According to you, a racist, redneck, red stater, evil conservative. Does it not shame you at all to mock a real American in the manner than you do?
You are making this too easy. You guys need to learn how to debate better. So by the standards you just set, you would argue that George Bush should be President and was more qualified then Obama. After-all Bush went to Yale as an undergrad and became the only President in history to get an MBA, from Harvard no less. And to top that off he was a two term governor of Texas, one of the largest economies in the world. That doesn't make our community organizer President look too qualified now does it?
