Points to Ponder....

Ponder the following:

What if the Obamas had paraded five children across the

stage, including a three month old infant and an unwed, pregnant

teenage daughter?


What if John McCain was a former president of the Harvard Law Review?


What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating

class?


What if McCain had only married once, and Obama was a divorcee?



What if Obama was the candidate who left his first wife after a severe

disfiguring car accident, when she no longer measured up to his

standards?


What if Obama had met his second wife in a bar and had a long affair

while he was still married?


What if Michelle Obama was the wife who not only became addicted to

pain killers but also acquired them illegally through her charitable

organization?


What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard?


What if Obama had been a member of the Keating Five? (The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of corruption in 1989, igniting a major political scandal as part of the larger Savings and Loan crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s.)


What if McCain was a charismatic, eloquent speaker?



What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter?


What if Obama was the one who had military experience that included

discipline problems and a record of crashing seven planes?


What if Obama was the one who was known to display publicly, on many

occasions, a serious anger management problem?


What if Michelle Obama's family had made their money from beer

distribution?


What if the Obamas had adopted a white child?


You could easily add to this list. If these questions reflected reality, do you really believe the election numbers would be as close as they are?


Educational Background:

International Relations.

Education isn't everything, but this is about the two highest offices in the land as well as our standing in the world. You make the call.

IN RE: Sarah Palin

"She does know about international relations because she is right up there in Alaska, right next door to Russia." –FOX News Channel's Steve Doocy, gushing over Palin's qualifications, to which Jon Stewart quipped, "When you think about it, Alaska is also near the North Pole, so she must also be friends with Santa."

"I'm not sure what she brings to the ticket other than she's a woman and a conservative." –Sarah Palin's mother-in-law, Faye Palin, who said she may vote for Obama

"She's old enough. She's a U.S. citizen." --John Harris, Alaska's Republican speaker of the house, when asked about Palin's qualifications for vice president

Sarah Palin in Her Own Words
"As for that VP talk all the time, I'll tell you, I still can't answer that question until somebody answers for me what is it exactly that the VP does every day?" --Sarah Palin, in an interview with CNBC's "Kudlow & Co."

"I've been so focused on state government, I haven't really focused much on the war in Iraq." --Palin

"It's great to see another part of the country." --Palin, campaigning in Pennsylvania

The prospects are not delightful....

Sarah Palin, when quizzed by Katie Couric regarding her knowledge of foreign policy, flubbed and hemmed and hawed, but then claimed that she was the executive officer of a state that had Russia across the water and Canada on, um, the land, um.... So that's why she is so good at foreign policy. GREAT.

In other news, why is it that McCain would want to be at war with any country? Most veterans I know would not ever choose war over peace....

Cheater, Cheater Pumpkin Eater

Okay, we all know that the esteemed Senator McCain cheated on his first spouse, with the woman became his second spouse, Cindy McCain. Why did he cheat on his first spouse? Well, while he was a POW (which he claims didn't mess him up AT ALL, yeah right), his ex-spouse was in a horrible car accident and was severely injured. She gained weight. When he came back and saw this new slightly swollen version of his spouse, he signed up for a new and younger version, before he was even separated. Then, within barely a month of his divorce being finalized, he was re-married. CLASSY. I want someone like that running the country.
