Even the D1ck Cheney Never Tried This!

The fact that she doesn't even know what the Vice President does shows that there is no way shes qualified for the job. I swear to god if she wins im moving to mexico.

Please, Annie, isn't it obvious that third grader Garcia is a member of the liberal media elite and asked her a "Gotcha" question? I bet Piper could beat him up on the playground!

I saw this this evening and I was pretty "o_O" about it. I'm sorry to say this, but this kinda makes Palin look...um..not smart. I had to say it. She said that she was glad the constitution gave the position she was picked by McCain for, that kind of power. ...wtf? You make an excellent point, though. Sure, Cheney loves the shadowy overlord bit...but he never went that far. Didn't even express the desire to. It's amazing. Seriously.

Let see, where did I put that thing.......... U.S. constitution, Article 1, section 3 (legislative branch; the senate) "The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided. The Senate shall chuse their other Officers, and also a President pro tempore, in the absence of the Vice President, or when he shall exercise the Office of President of the United States" The constitution defines the vice president as a legislative role. the only mention of the VP in article 2 is as a replacement of the president.

I think Palin is power hungry pure & simple. She wants the U.S. to be the way she thinks it should be. She is really scaring the heck out of me lately because she is actually doing things her own way & publically disagreeing with McCain. That slip some time ago when she called it the Palin/McCain ticket really speaks volumes. What is she up to? I don't know & I hope we never find out. If the McCain ticket is elected, Canada looks pretty good to me.

Oh, somebody said they'd like to hear reasons that people like Obama rather than reasons that people hate Palin (as if they've never heard anyone state reasons they like Obama, which I find hard to believe.) Okay, here are some: 1. His economic plan, I believe, is a good one. 2. Same with his healthcare plan. 3. He is obviously highly intelligent. 4. His personality and demeanor are extremely positive factors which I think is very desirable in a President. 5. He does not support a ban on gay marriage. 6. He does support charter schools. 7. He has a fair and reasonable view on abortion. 8. He just plain and simple strikes me as a nice guy. Is that enough? Or should I go for an even 10? 9. He DOES represent change, after 8 years of a conservative President. 10. He appears to have picked a running mate who he felt was the right person for the job. We know he did not pick "the popular choice" (Hillary) just to get votes. Now that's just me personally. But if you asked every single person who's voting for Obama I'm sure they could all come up with their own list.

She said something similar some months ageo. I don't remember the specifics but someone pointed out that her views on an issue did not jive with McCain's and she replied along the lines of "I'm working on him". I was astounded by what she said then and this is just as incredible. I wonder what job description Sarah from the Frozen North has written for her presidency? I'm sure she has one but I doubt she'll ever get to use it. Her fifteen minutes of fame are almost over.

I saw this last night. I think she's crazy! We've just come from eight years of that. I could feel sorry for her before, because she clearly wasn't prepared for any of this, but now I can't. She's had months to figure out what her job would be if elected.

Her description wasn't wrong just because she didn't use the exact wording of the constitution Annie. By the way, how did you feel about Joe Biden not knowing the job of the vice president? Naturally the media ignored this, but it's pretty interesting that a man with over 30 years of experience doesn't even understand the job he's trying to get. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2008/oct/03/biden-gets-veep-role-wrong/

Annie, Instead of giving us all sorts of reason we should hate Sarah Palin, why not give us some reasons to like Obama. I have yet to find a reason. Frankly, I can't tell if you actually hate her or have a crush on her. I'm reminded of high school and the heart covered notebook with the crush of the month named all over it.

With all the Democrats in the Senate I think she'll have trouble making "good policy changes" but, in my opinion even if the Republicans control the Senate she would have a hard time making "good policy changes". I'll leave that to your imagination lol As for extending the power of the vice president I am not in favor of that. This past administration has left me not wanting that to ever happen again. But, at least she knew that she was suppose to do something with the Senate. lol

She can't really be as dumb as she's being portrayed, can she?

I think that if the changes that that she wants to get in there with the senators and make are beneficial to everyone and can help everyone will be a good thing. But who knows what they will come up with.

I think that our "do nothing" congress needs someone to go in there and light a fire under their butts. They are barely reactive much less proactive. NO she can not vote unless there is a deadlock. But she can put preasure on them to talk and compromise and actually start getting things done in a timely manner. She seems the type that would pretty tell anyone on either side if they were playing party politics games or other BS. You can not tell me our congress does not need someone who can do that. They need a huge kick in the pants. They act like little kids fighting on a playground. Someone needs to step in and remind these poeple what they were elected for (and it wasn't to spend all their time finger pointing and back biting). I only hope that if Biden gets it, he will take a firm hand with congress. I do not want Biden or Palin to tell them how to vote. But I do want which ever one wins to hold them accountable for their BS, call a spade a spade and actually make them to their jobs and most importantly learn how to work together. The American public is paying the price for party politics. What is best for the party has become more important than what is best for the country. This needs to be stopped.

I still say she's ready to be vice president! You GO girl!

Vice Presidents used to do almost nothing, if you read about them in history. But that has changed in more recent years. I don't find anything wrong in what Governor Palin said. She may not have a vote unless she needs to break a tie, but that doesn't mean she has to sit around like window dressing. I pray that McCain and Palin make it because they CAN make some good changes.
