New Feminist’s comment on this thread wasn’t seen fit to be posted, but we’ll say what we have to say anyway:
Palin was not a good choice because the cost of energizing the Republican ticket was alienating moderates – an inevitable problem, it’s true, and one that has little to do with Palin per se. A [...]

When the Republicans said it, it was a way to use people’s hope as a way to keep office (remember that, all you squawkers about Kool-Aid)?
Now, it’s actually true. It is Morning in America, and with hard work it will be a bright and glorious day.

The McCandidate’s Man of the Hour last night was Joe the Plumber, who’s concerned about having to pay more taxes under Obama. Joe wants a tax break. Funny – he’s already given himself one:
`Joe the plumber,” the Toledo, Ohio, man whose complaints about Barack Obama’s tax plan were highlighted by John McCain in the final [...]

McCain needs a game-changer. Tonight’s debate isn’t it.
He avoids eye contact with Obama; he will not name him beyond a jerk of the head and a reference to “this one.” He glares. He writes notes, stabbing the tablet so that the water in the glass on the shelf under the writing surface shakes. He makes [...]

So round, so smooth, so fully packed! So quick and easy on the draw!
And best of all – that milder, smoother tobacco never leaves an aftertaste! They’re good for you!

There’s a possibility that Obama’s health care plan would cover abortions, if, that is, he gets elected and his health care plan goes through exactly as he wants it with no compromises whatsoever on controversial issues — which of course it won’t.
But that won’t stop people from getting offended at the possibility. They will squawk [...]

Every single-issue voter whose single issue is abortion should themselves this question:
What good has my vote accomplished in the past?
Has voting for pro-life candidates, especially presidential candidates, helped to overturn Roe vs. Wade? Has it helped to change public opinion, which is still roughly 75% in favor of keeping abortion legal?
And if the answer is [...]

There’s a headline for you, courtesy FOX News.
A belated moment of compassion, you think, for Biden’s sorrow over the death of his first wife and their daughter? The Grand Old Man showing the spunky youngster that we can be noble in defeat and show compassion for a fellow American?
No.

Posted on 2 October 2008. Filed under: feminism, politics | Tags: Exxon, FOX News, John McCain, politics, Sarah Palin |
FOX News is wet with delight and triumph. After some digging, they’ve found video of Sarah Palin talking coherently about a Supreme Court decision.
So why didn’t Palin talk like this when questioned by Katie Couric? Either Palin just can’t handle pressure, like, at all, or she chose not say anything about the Exxon decision. Why? [...]
