I’m A Little Offended

Posted on September 1st, 2008 | 2 Comments »

For those of you who are following me on Twitter or read my 5-a-day status updates on facebook, you would know that I was a little disturbed by John McCain’s vice presidential pick. For one, if this was a ploy to get angry Hillary voters to cross parties, it will surely fail. Sarah Palin, though an admirable trailblazer in some respects, is anti-abortion in all circumstances (including rape & incest) and not exactly what I would call a feminist. In addition, the “no experience” card the republicans repeatedly use on Barack Obama has just been thrown out the door; Palin is a first term Governor of Alaska. However, let’s leave the political issues alone and just look at her attitude a few months ago about the vice presidential position. I quote her directly, “What is it exactly that the VP does everyday?” Huhhhhh???????? Come on John McCain you can’t be serious!

    Certain kind of politicians seem to go backward. They’ll prolly wont stop til they reach the Middle Age (worldwide, not just talkin about the US)

    Not to mention the whole scandal with Palin’s 5-months-pregnant, 17-year-old daughter. Seems like McCain reallyyy didn’t think this one through. Hypocrisy, much?
