ah, but you forget about the reality-distortion glasses. ::sigh::
Since when has the McCain campaign ever told a lie...::smirk::

reality-distortion glasses.

Wait. I could have sworn it was a bus. Or at least a big van. Maybe a caravan? Something... Something "Express." Yeah, that.

It's a bit like when a newspaper gets something wrong in a front page article, the retraction is a little note somewhere way in the back, people only remember what they first heard

And the base figures that Any one criticizing Palin are sexist, atheist following the anti-Christ

not sure if this has been posted yet but here's the NY Times article:

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/14/us/politics/14palin.html

the question is -- what will it take for people to be VERY AFRAID

Not too long, I think. Not for Independents anyway. The right wingers that are ecstatic for the Second Coming are will never come around, but those who want a credible team, a team with integrity, are going to drop McCain / Palin, once they stop being able to think of them without thinking about all of the flat lies that are coming out of the Campaign.

Yeah, I should totally be Vice President! I've been to Mexico, Canada, Spain, India, Switzerland, Holland, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Turkey, and Greece! Plus I've had a passport since I was 22 years old!

I'll be the judge of that... saintless September 14 2008, 06:34:26 UTC

hmmmmm, what's the longest period of time your parents have ever grounded you?
Pabst or Sierra-Nevada?
What are your thoughts on Iran, conventional or nuclear war-heads?

mollywobbles867 September 14 2008, 07:06:11 UTC

Pfft. I've had a passport since I was 17. This obviously means I should be president and you should be my VP. Duh. lol

*bows to your obviously superior foreign policy experience*

Perhaps I can be in your cabinet? I'm your best friend, really. *wink* I don't know anything about federal spending, but perhaps I could work in the Treasury? *wink wink* C'mon. I'm your old pal!
