If You Are Anti-Palin, Like Me, You Should Read/Watch This – Could We Be Wrong?

09/10/2008 New Sarah Palin Scandal from National Enquirer – Click Here

Note:  This post was delayed 24 hours because “someone” had my account frozen while WordPress checked on some images from the church with the, “I kissed a girl, then I went to hell” sign. 

I’m also re-thinking my re-thinking of Palin.  Extreme right-wing Christian nuts should just stay in their houses and pray for sinners like me.  We’d all be much happier. 

So during the last 24 hours I have not been able to post anything I have been using my spare time getting straight Christian girls to kiss me . . . and they liked it.

Here is the post in question minus the “offending” images.  And yes, I agree the entire thing is quite offensive.   Wonder who on Earth had a problem with my post?

Well, just don’t ever use images from a church website – even if there is no copywrite notice on them.  Churches don’t want to get the word out about their services – it’s all so secret you know.

I stayed up way too late last night and will admit that as a result I could be like the gay In-a-Fog Cabin Republicans.   But this has been bothering me all day.  Is it possible that we’re wrong? 

First, I’ll point out the obvious.  Democrats always reexamine their positions and rarely think in terms of black and white.  That’s why Republicans can do such a good job of staying on message.  But my qualms about the Sarah Palin thing seem a little beyond that.  

Oh, I don’t know. 

I’m shaking my head as I type this.   From what I can ascertain Sarah Palin has no knowledge of US foreign policy so she isn’t someone that I could vote for, there is just no way.   On the other hand, when I put her against the experience of Obama, I’m really not sure that he’s that much better.   Of course, I doubt that he would shoot and skin a puppy for breakfast . . .  And then again, there was a time when a man named Howard Dean impressed me with his vigor and new way of approaching politics.

Palin just seems so extreme.   Do the majority of Republicans really think that if a pre-teen girl is raped that the government should force the child to have the baby; even if her family doesn’t want her to have the baby?  What if the rapist is her father?  The government should make these personal decisions for families and their children?  No, reasonable people really don’t think that but Sarah Palin does and that’s not reasonable to me.

Do the majority of Republicans really think that Sarah Palin is ready to take over as president should she be called to do so as a VP?  No, they really don’t.   No doubt they are just as tired of what they see as Democrat antics as I am of Republican games, tricks, double speak, divide and benefit.  

Likewise, I don’t think Obama is really that ready either.  But I do think that Obama is more likely to bring us together as a country than is McCain.   I was bracing myself for Obama to pick a VP that would be selected for political reasons.   I was so relieved when he instead picked someone with the type of experience that’s needed to deal with the many diplomatic issues and outside threats that we face.  McCain, he just went for the vote.   And, no matter how much I try to see the other side, I have a really hard time with that.

Strangely enough when I came home from work today I learned that Sally Quinn has expressed some doubts regarding her own initial reaction to Sarah Palin.  I’ll give you a link for the video here in a second.

Right now I just want to reflect and ramble a little further on what all of this means.  I feel confident that Palin is not ready and I feel confident that McCain has no new ideas to take us forward and that his first chance to show leadership and judgment was thrown away to buy votes.  Yet, that is the American way, isn’t it? 

Obama is still a big question mark for me.  Instead of digging up dirt on Sarah Palin, tonight I think I’ll spend more time getting to know Obama.   If I would have voted for Howard Dean, I can’t claim that my negative reaction to Sarah Palin is all about experience.  And, why didn’t I take any pleasure in seeing the first woman selected by a major party to run as VP?  What was that all about?   Am I just as glazed over, gulping down the grape koolaid as my Fox News in-laws?   Or have the Republican tactics of using issues like marriage equality left me so bitter that I can’t think “straight?”

I’m tired, really tired.  Didn’t sleep one minute last night.  Better save this thinking for later.
