Palin an "unqualified disaster"
Letters to the Editor Blog
Posted by Camera Staff
Peter Mayer: Gov. Sarah Palin should withdraw

http://www.dailycamera.com/blogs/letters-editor-blog/2008/sep/02/mayerp/

For the good of the country and the good of her family, Gov. Sarah Palin should withdraw her nomination as Vice President. Her family needs her leadership and guidance far more than the United States of America. John McCain has made a colossal blunder with this selection and if he expects anyone to take his candidacy seriously he must select a new running mate and move on as quickly as possible. Palin is truly an unqualified disaster.

Peter Mayer

12. I'm co-opting it.
It doesn't matter who gets the credit for coining this phrase. What matters is who gets the blame for putting this unqualified disaster in line for the presidency!

:rofl: This is fun.

2. it sure is!
and it is true as well. Sarah will become pregnant again and being she doesn't believe is abortion, she'll have another one. I don't know what the odds are of having yet another kid with Down Syndrome.

She doesn't care - a gift from God is how she views it.

HOWEVER, The Assembly of God would view Sarah as being cursed and evil and that is why she has born a child that is a "special needs" case.

Whatever the logic, she will continue to breed away as this is her true mission in life. There is no room nor time for being the VP or POTUS!

Drop out now Sarah and save your sorry ass before God gets you!

:kick:

Did I take my analogy too far?

"Sarah Palin in two words"
Sarah Palin can be defined in one simple word: disaster.

She is the most under qualified VP pick in modern history. A 44 year old woman who happens to be the Governor of Alaska got her very first passport in 2007 and is being touted as prepared to be a heartbeat away from the presidency?

She sounds more and more like Bush who even though his father was a VP and President, had only been out of the US twice (and both times with daddy) before running for President. We saw how well that worked out.

As for foreign policy experience because her state is the closest to Russia, you could say the same about Bush being Governor of Texas which borders Mexico. Again, we saw how well that argument worked out.

Let me restate Sarah Palin in two words: Unqualified Disaster.

7. I disagree...
If there's anything Palin has PROVEN herself to be qualified to be, it's a disaster.

8. "a lightweight, unqualified disaster of a naked attempt at pandering."
John McCain and Sarah Palin will lose in November. Who will be blamed? Sarah Palin. Etched forever into the annals of Presidential history as a lightweight, unqualified disaster of a naked attempt at pandering.

11. "the judgement of McCain ... putting us all at risk"
And then we go back to the judgement of McCain for putting us all at risk with this unqualified disaster with little or no vetting. I've met McCain twice, but this is not the man I used to know. He is absolutely corrupted by his desire to win.
