And hey, what's with these ridiculous protesters at the Convention yesterday? They're a group of anarchists that call themselves "The RNC Welcoming Committee."

There's no way I cast my vote for Barack Obama. His veep running mate could be Jesus Christ and I would still not give Obama my vote. Any chance of that, and I admit there was probably some chance I would at least consider voting for Obama, went out the window when this elitist, arrogant jackass stated that middle and lower income Americans often rely on their religion and guns in tough times. Obama, as far as I'm concerned, can shove that Harvard diploma straight up his own ass.

McCain's campaign staffers have been very critical of the media and their coverage of Sarah Palin's seventeen year old pregnant daughter, who is also not married. Opinions, gentlemen? Has the media been unfairly harsh about Palin's pregnant daughter?

I was slightly miffed about Bush's military career thing when you consider how much he demanded of our current military

So when there was a vacancy at the top of the State Division of Agriculture, she(Sarah Palin) appointed a high school classmate, Franci Havemeister, to the $95,000-a-year directorship. A former real estate agent, Ms. Havemeister cited her childhood love of cows as one of her qualifications for running the roughly $2 million agency

When Ms. Palin had to cut her first state budget, she avoided the legion of frustrated legislators and mayors. Instead, she huddled with her budget director and her husband, Todd, an oil field worker who is not a state employee, and vetoed millions of dollars of legislative projects

Throughout her political career, she has pursued vendettas, fired officials who crossed her and sometimes blurred the line between government and personal grievance, according to a review of public records and interviews with 60 Republican and Democratic legislators and local officials

Here's an interesting article about Sarah Palin, which touches on her governing style: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26691018

From the article:

This smacks of cronyism to me.

My concerns about Sarah Palin as the VP of the United States have just become decidedly more acute.
