Ya this would make sense if MCSAME AND GODDESSARAH were

liberal

1. favorable to progress or reform, as in political or religious affairs.
2. noting or pertaining to a political party advocating measures of progressive political reform.

SO this REFORM GOP platform is... well

CONSERVATIVE

–adjective
1. disposed topreserveexisting conditions, institutions, etc., or to restore traditional ones, and limit change.

EVEN funnier is these were the first definitions.....

Thanks for posting that one. I was about to say the same. "So Palin served in the weekend warrior National Guard of Alaska - Big Whoop. It still doesn't amount to a hill of beans."

Great post by the way. I loved it.

Ok I don't agree with the religion aspect.
I think cheap shotting Obama on religion is like Trying to use Palins 17 year old daughter to cheap shot her.
But as I have only seen one side be side comparison of the (R) VICE PRESIDENTIAL candidate to the Democratic PRESIDENTIAL candidate.

You have got to be kidding me about those that are comparing Biden's experience and Palin's. Look at the history of each in politics and Palin's is so much more weak than Biden's. Besides basing things on experience is just nuts any way. Rumsfeld, one of the biggest reasons this country is in the bad shape it is, was one of the most experienced politicians going. Bush has some of the most experienced politicians around him, but has managed to mismanage most things. What we need is intelligence and wisdom, people that greed and zealous religious thought is not the driving force for decisions. You surround yourself with experts. The president should not be a military man. That was built in so you would not have a militaristic government. To substitute wisdom and intelligence for experience is just a bad move, history has already shown this to be a bad deal in the land of capitalistic greed.

Oh really, that's news to me!!

12 Presidents with NO military experience and 30 Presidents that have served in the military, of which 24 served in war time. You may want to rethink that comment.

History proves that the American people have preferred Presidents with military experience, whether you like it or not. Your comment about a built-in anti-military bias in our government, is pure BS of the first order.
