i hate the news in general

[Flynbyu]

I'm a registered Democrat, and I do cross party lines when voting.

In my opinion, McCain is a good man, but a truly feel it's time for a changing of the guard. He hasn't made his point with me of how he would be any different than the current administration. He totally lost my confidence when he chose Palin. Very poor decision in my opinion.

Here's a senator from your neck of the woods:

GOP senator: A 'stretch' to say Palin is qualified 2 hours, 20 minutes ago



Nebraska Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel said his party's vice presidential nominee, Sarah Palin, lacks foreign policy experience and called it a "stretch" to say she's qualified to be president.

"She doesn't have any foreign policy credentials," Hagel said in an interview published Thursday by the Omaha World-Herald. "You get a passport for the first time in your life last year? I mean, I don't know what you can say. You can't say anything."

Could Palin lead the country if GOP presidential nominee John McCain could not?

"I think it's a stretch to, in any way, to say that she's got the experience to be president of the United States," Hagel said.

McCain and other Republicans have defended Palin's qualifications, citing Alaska's proximity to Russia. Palin told ABC News, "They're our next-door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska."

Hagel took issue with that argument. "I think they ought to be just honest about it and stop the nonsense about, 'I look out my window and I see Russia and so therefore I know something about Russia,'" he said. "That kind of thing is insulting to the American people."

Hagel, a senior member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has been a vocal critic of the Bush administration since the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

In July, Hagel traveled to Iraq and Afghanistan with Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama. Though he didn't expect to be asked, Hagel had said he would have considered serving as Obama's running mate.

Palin was mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, population 6,500, before becoming Alaska's governor in December 2006.

Palin visited soldiers in Kuwait and Germany last year and said in an interview with ABC News that her only other foreign travel had been to Mexico and Canada. She also said she had never met a foreign head of state.

Hagel told the newspaper that other governors have been elected to serve in the White House without experience in Washington. He said judgment and character were also important for the job.

"But I do think in a world that is so complicated, so interconnected and so combustible, you really got to have some people in charge that have some sense of the bigger scope of the world," Hagel said. "I think that's just a requirement."

preddy, say it ain't so!!!!!

AHHH that's better lighten the mood!

I am a registered flip-flopper that occasionally, does not flipflop. On certain issues, yes, others, we cannot afford to be conservative and say without a doubt our view is 100% correct and we are not going to change our mind because our party forbids changing of the mind. Reminds me of another form of gov't. I won't say what that is....

Can we send him some gay porn, and ask if he wants to meet up with the rest of his republican buddys in the airport restrooms?

[socalrappy700]

That was such an educated reply.   


Sad, this coming from the same person bitching about your riding areas closing down.  Thanks for voting in the people that made it happen.

She doesn't control the US Missle Defense system. I would assume that's done at NORAD. She can call up troops for distasters and emergencies, but nothing more than that.
