You're right, let me state that more accurately. She's against allowing a 13 year old child to terminate a gang-rape-induced pregnancy. Is a born-again Evangelical Christian (now... you tell me how many of them take the Bible as a literal representation of the facts regarding the age of the earth?). Feels the war in Iraq is a 'Holy War (don't ask for an attribution please, it's all over the internet). Cited the fact that she can see Russia from Alaska as foreign policy experience (until informed by the brain trust that the suggestion is absurd). Lied about being against the 'Bridge to Nowhere'. Not allowed by the brain trust to take impromptu questions for fear that she'll stick her foot in her mouth. I believe the part about her being honestly anti-big government. A conservative populist? Sure, okay. Into serving the people? Well... perhaps we have a difference of opinion regardind the ultimate aims of people who seek offices like this. Again, I'm not dissing them - if they want power and they go out and get it, more power to them. A revolutionary?? Not quite. In all honesty, and not being facetious at all, I don't know what this means. I respect your faith as long as you don't try to impose your faith-based beliefs on me by supporting legislation based on those beliefs that would affect me. In fairness, I have heard that Palin doesn't show much interest in ramming through legislation based on her faith. I simply don't want anyone who holds some of her (apparently extreme) beliefs running a major Western country.

What a dim bulb: In an interview with Fox News Channel, Palin said: "It was an unfair attack on the verbiage that Sen. McCain chose to use because the fundamentals, as he was having to explain afterwards, he means our work force, he means the ingenuity of the American people. And of course, that is strong and that is the foundation of our economy."

Pabst's faith incorporates hating people based on skin color, race, ethnicity, or just about any other measure except for who they are as an individual, what they believe, and the values they hold. He's more shallow than Sarah Palin. Now I understand his obsession with her. I am shocked - shocked I tell you - to hear that Pabst lost his bid for public office. Maybe the David Duke endorsement hurt him.
Why only "guess?" After all, if you know it's a child then you should know other philosophical questions, like what it enjoys doing in its spare time. Fetuschild likes to play marbles(baseball) and enjoys his tire(car) while he reads(watches) pamphlets(books) in his amniotic fluid(Budweiser).

The first part of the interview on economic policy aired on the CBS Evening News last night. You can read and watch that part of the interview here. Tonight, the second part of the exclusive interview, this time on foreign policy, will air on the CBS Evening News. But before that, here's a preview of Palin talking about Afghanistan. This clip also aired on The Early Show this morning. Katie Couric: Why is it much more challenging there? Can you explain that? Sarah Palin: The logistics that we are already suggesting here, not having enough troops in the area right now. The⦠things like the terrain even in Afghanistan and that border between Pakistan and Afghanistan, where, you know, we believe that-- Bin Laden is-- is hiding out right now and⦠and is still such a leader of this terrorist movement. There⦠there are many more challenges there. So, again, I believe that⦠a surge in Afghanistan also will lead us to victory there as it has proven to have done in Iraq. And as I say, Katie, that we cannot afford to retreat, to withdraw in Iraq. That's not gonna get us any better off in Afghanistan either. And as our leaders are telling us in our military, we do need to ramp it up in Afghanistan, counting on our friends and allies to assist with us there because these terrorists who hate America, they hate what we stand for with the⦠the freedoms, the democracy, the⦠the women's rights, the tolerance, they hate what it is that we represent and our allies, too, and our friends, what they represent. If we were⦠were to allow a stronghold to be captured by these terrorists then the world is in even greater peril than it is today. We cannot afford to lose in Afghanistan.
I don't "hate" ANYONE based on racial or ethnic criteria. I make my money by accurately measuring probabilities. I'll make a trade that has a 90% chance of losing if I think the payoff is greater than 10-1. I'm an agnostic statistician. I view the expectation of outcomes through the lense of probability. In Chicago the odds of an African-American sticking a gun in my face-which has happened to me twice-are statistically around 50 times greater than a white guy doing the same. I'd be pretty friggin' ignorant if I didn't assess my options more carefully when passing two black kids than when a white guy walks up to me. Given that at this moment one out of ten black males between 18-25 are incarcerated and that one out of three black males have been incarcerated my judgment/caution is validated by more than just empirical observations. It's the same with secular Jews. Am i predisposed to being an anti-Semite? Hardly. My aunt is not only married to a Jew but my first cousin is a practicing Jew. My cousin is the sister I never had. Even still I'd be statistically ignorant to not recognize that the majority of American Jews and the VAST majority of non religious Jews are liberal, leftest socialists. Do I âhateâ them? Yep. Do I hate them because they're Jewish? Not a bit. At the CBOT there was a substantial number of Jewish traders. By and large they were free market Reagan Republicans. Unfortunately those conservative, Milton Friedman schooled Jews are kicking back with their 2mil and not writing anti-Christian values opinion on ET and in the MSM......
