15. It is outrageous that this crazy jackass can claim Palin knows
more about energy that anyone else in the US. Like any other dictatorial wantabe, he is willing to say anything to accomlish his goal. He is no patriot working for the betterment of this country but just another lying SOB.

3. How does energy
Have anything to do with National Security? I mean I know it has some relation but he was talking about experience in NS. I mean how many color codes does she know? What does the color "Red" mean? LOL! Can you imaigine had he picked Condi instead of Caribou Barbie. I don't like Condi either but we would be in deep doo doo if he had and she accepted.

8. wow....they're REALLY grasping for anything
even accepting, arguendo, that her role in the eventual (possible) construction of a natural gas pipeline amounts to "experience" with energy, it is a HUGE leap from that to having foreign policy experience. what about all those other countries without oil reserves? what ability or knowledge does she have to address them? how about all the non-energy foreign relations issues?

also, in comparing Obama to Palin, McCain kept saying she was right and Obama was wrong, referring, I must assume, to her opinions since I've never once heard her present a proposal, recommendation, or plan on any of the topics he listed. but having an opinion does not equate to having experience.

put another way, I have an opinion as to how open heart surgery should be done, that is successfully and without the patient developing a post-surgery infection or complication, but that doesn't give me the experience to do the operation.

13. Oh my God. I'm having a terrible nightmare that I can't wake from.
This fucking moron could become the president? Really? No, seriously. This bumbling mealy-mouthed fuck-puppet has supporters? People actually think this human turd has the ability to run this country? The man is a fucking liar, and can't answer a single question posed to him.

You watch. These shit-heads will find some way to get out of the upcoming debates. The media will defend this action, and dumb-ass Americans will continue to support Officer Plane Crash, and the great Alaskan Wilderpig.

How anyone could watch this asshole dance around a direct question and think he'd make a good president is completely dumbfounding.

What do you call a two, redneck, christian-fundamentalist, McCain supporters in a hot-tub?

Shit stew.

Good night, and good luck...

16. I applaud your summation of this phony little shit.
I wish the clueless voters who support this freak would wake up and realize how incompetent this doddering fool is.

20. I hope you will not have to put up with that agony. Believe me
most thinking people are hoping the same thing. Service people need someone who will fight for their best interests..McCain simply doesn't give a damn about any of us.. he is caught up in his own self interests to the point of putting this country in utmost danger.
