8 Reasons Sarah Palin is More Qualified than Barack Obama
Sarah Palin (sp?) has ignited the presidential race and fired up the GOP -- as evidenced by three women at the RNC who took the time to print the words "We," "Love," and "Sarah" on pieces of paper and tape them to the backs of their t-shirts. Sarah's even won the backing of the level-headed Rep. Michele Bachmann (R- MN) -- not exactly known for toeing the party line. Clearly, the liberal left realizes that it can't match this kind of unbridled enthusiasm for its candidate. So what are they doing? Attacking her character. Questioning her qualifications. Imagine a political group attacking an opponent because it can't win on the issues or the record. It's disgusting.
So let's set the record straight. Sarah Pahlen (sp?) is not only more qualified for the Oval Office than Barack Obama -- she might just be the most qualified political candidate in our nation's history:
1. Putting Country First - Her membership in the Alaska Independence Party proves that she's exactly the kind of leader America needs: the kind that will always put country first -- even if that country happens to be The Republic of Alaska. Obama claims he loves America -- but has he ever loved it enough to favor seceding from it? It's called tough love, Senator. Look into it.
2. Independence - Sarah hates indicted Senator Ted Stevens, but raised money for him. She hates the "bridge to nowhere," but supported it. She wants to shatter Hillary's glass ceiling, but wears t-shirts touting the size of her boobs. We're dealing with an innovative politician; one who refuses to be categorized. Obama may call himself the candidate of "change," but Sarah Pailen's (sp?) entire political life has been about saying one thing, and then doing another. Now that's "change we can believe in."
3. Family Values - This is someone who's not afraid to preach abstinence for your daughter, even though her own unmarried 17-year-old daughter is pregnant. This is someone who's not afraid to hop on a plane from Texas to Alaska while she's in premature labor. This is someone who's not afraid to hit the campaign trail with a 5-month-old special needs baby. That's what I call dedication to family. Obama, on the other hand? A Muslim.
4. Intellect - Yes, Sarah recently admitted that she didn't know exactly what it was the Vice President did. Yes, she wants creationism taught in public schools. Yes, she doesn't believe global warming is manmade. But I'd like to point out the fact that she wears glasses -- and that's not something dumb people generally do. Obama? No glasses.
5. Military Affairs - As Governor, Pollen (sp?) is authorized to deploy Alaska's National Guard in times of emergency. And while the Guard's Adjunct General admits that she plays no role in national defense, and isn't briefed on military exercises, the fact is -- she's been photographed holding a machine gun, while Obama has yet to wield so much as a .38 for the cameras. When it comes to keeping me safe, that's all I need to know.
6. Foreign Affairs - While Obama likes to take Middle East tours, meet with Europe's leaders, and brag about his running mate being the foreign policy voice of the Senate, he can't hold a candle to Palenn's (sp?) understanding of today's complex, dangerous world. Yes, Sarah admitted that she hadn't paid much attention to the war in Iraq, but she knew enough to rightly call it a "task from God." Yes, she's only left North America once in her life, but her experience as a local sportscaster gave her the ability to follow events as they unfold at lightning speed. And as Cindy McCain pointed out, while Barack Obama was sipping lattes in Cambridge Square, Sarah Pinkston (sp?) was staring down the barrel of Putin's Kalashnikov -- a one woman wall keeping America safe from invasion.
7. Restoring America's Image - Who better than a former beauty queen to add some new luster to America's battered image? Paylen (sp?) will take a proverbial can of Aqua Net to our nation's unruly hair, and apply liberal (no pun intended) amounts of blush to Lady Liberty's cheekbones. In a word, she'll dazzle the world with her charm and style. Even the most anti-Western extremists will melt when they see the People and Vanity Fair spreads of Sarah warming her fur-lined extremities over burning science textbooks. And how would Obama restore our leadership in the world? The question we should be asking is: why does he only have two children, while Sarah has at least twice that number? What does Senator Obama have against America's children?
8. Her Soul - In one 15-minute meeting, and one follow-up phone call, John McCain was able to determine that Sarah was more than his running mate -- she was his "soul mate." Not only that, but that she was more qualified to be a heartbeat away from the Oval Office than any Republican on earth. Yes, this is a testament to the power and quickness of McCain's decision making. But it's also a testament to the power of Sarah Payton's (sp?) soul. As a Muslim, it's not even clear that Obama has a soul.
So is Sarah Pillston (sp?) qualified to be Vice President? To be one bad biopsy away from being the most powerful human being on earth? To lead America back to prominence and prosperity, while keeping us safe from a world of ever-changing threats?
In her own words: "Yup...yup."

Can someone please tell me one or more noteworthy accomplishments by Obama over the years?
Why the hell is this article worshiping Sarah Palin here? And what is with the lies about Obama too?
Seth, are you trying to be sarcastic here? If you are the right wingers may still use this article against us in the middle and left of the political spectrum.
'3. just for kicks, yet true/scary: "About the business registered under her name, Palin said, 'Rouge Cou', it"s a classy way of saying redneck. It"s a French word, rouge is red, cou is neck." '
So I'm not the only one calling her "redneck Sarah". It seems she self identifies that way. as well.
Try reading the entire article - you'll feel mighty foolish labeling it an 'article worshiping Sarah Palin'.
haha fool
it is called satire :)
Why did it have to take a blackman for john mccain to pick a woman. can anyone explain to me why i should not feel like this pick was based off of obama being black. to me it seems mccain forced himself into picking sarah palin. lets get it understood he barely knows her. what he really seek her input on policy issues or wil she play the traditional vp role. i believe in the latter. i think he was looking for the historical campaign title rather than i need an than have an trusted advisor. can some please tell do you really think john mccain needs her to help him govern or to just when the election. the only why mccain could have any chance at getting elected was to equal the historical aspect of this election with the stereotypical all-american girl next door theme.
I reallyt don't want to say, however, it is much deeper. Race is always an issue in American politics. Sad, but true.
Yes. Tell you what, McCain picks the right VP that shares same values, political ideology/reform for america's better future. Obama shows his weakness/inexperience by picking Biden to fullfill what Obama is lacking. How the hell he can lead America? Why swaping position, it would make more sense. But then, the combination could not even make sense compare with McCain-Palin ticket.
Open Letter to All Democrats: PART 2
Along with changing the media’s narrative we must focus on how her executive experience provides us a DIRECT view of how she will govern as VP or President of the USA. The Republicans will cry SEXISM every time we challenge her record. So let’s give them something to cry about. By the way, the challenge should come from JOE BIDEN. Let’s let Barack focus on John and MEDIA focus on her scandals, corruption allegations and personal struggles. We are concerned with her policies and what would America look like under Sarah Palin.
It’s not about what you DON’T know about Palin, it’s about what you DO know. We know she:
1) supports earmarks that John McCain finds wasteful spending.
2) is extreme on abortion rights and wants to overturn Roe V. Wade.
3) doesn’t believe in science or global warming.
4) believes God should tell her how to govern, fight wars and write policies.
5) is against equal pay for women.
6) she is pro-censorship and would ban certain books in libraries across the country.
7) has flip-flopped on guns and abstinence .
8) does not have any foreign policy credentials to speak of.
9) and her husband flirted with Alaska’s secession from the Union.
10) Finally, we know she’s itching for a fight. Dems need to answer her wish.
Very good in bending the facts and making as it is true. No one would believe a make up story on top of the facts.
Open Letter to All Democrats:
The Democrats have had the wind knocked out of our sails with the revelation of Sarah Palin. I said last week that picking her would not work but boy was I wrong. She has fired up the republicans in a way no one has done since Reagan.
To the detriment of many republicans, Obama was underestimated for his intellect, charisma, ability and candor. Regardless of Palin’s lies and spin, she is being lauded as the great hope of the Republican party. IT WILL WORK! Just like millions of people find themselves drawn to Barack Obama because of his interesting story, so will many Americans find themselves drawn to Sarah Palin.
We can’t force her to talk to the press. But we can talk about what we know of her and make her WISH she had talked to the press. We need to flip the script and change the media’s narrative. They are just as smitten with Sarah as they were with Barack when he first came on the scene. The Republicans finally realized they couldn’t beat Barack unless they nominated their own version of him. There are definitely things we can do as Democrats to knock the wind out of the Republicans sails.
Yup! Yup! I say we just make her Queen!

"Imagine a political group attacking an opponent because it can't win on the issues or the record. It's disgusting." - Your point? That's all Republicans do.
That was the point.
that is the best thing i have ever read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you!
i am certain you have lowered my blood pressure, thank you Seth!!!!!
Read this to find the truth about Sara Palin from someone who has known her for years.
Very interesting!

Thank you for your insight. This is exactly the type of information the MSM needs to pick up on and drive home to the public...if only the media had the opportunity to ask her about it. Obviously, the McCain campaign is well aware of the controversies her past decisions and actions would stir up. That's why they are being so careful by limiting the media's access to her.
Obama/Biden '08
A+ in my book Seth. Even though your spelling gets ah, ah, a gentleman's C. Thanks for the laughs!
Other points:
1. Governor Palin was also pregnant when she got married. It seems that she must have imparted her extensive knowledge of sex education to her daughter...and would like to force the rest of the country to know only what she knows about preventing pregnancy before marriage--to quote Rudy G., "Nada".
2. John McCain was able to determine that Sarah was more than his running mate -- she was his "soul mate."
George Bush peered into Putin’s soul, and how reliable was that? About as reliable as abstinence-only sex education.
3. just for kicks, yet true/scary: "About the business registered under her name, Palin said, 'Rouge Cou', it’s a classy way of saying redneck. It’s a French word, rouge is red, cou is neck."
4. republicans are so oppositional, i can see a new pride in teenage pregnancies that occurs just as some sort of screwed-up badge of honor. as in "don't judge me you ivy-league latte drinkers, i'm a conservative and proud of it, and my daughter is pregnant, and that is a testament to my belief in abstinence-only sex education, so i am morally right"...a long way from the days of dan quayle vs. murphy brown...
5. if she doesn't believe in abortion or education or birth control, and would like that to be the law of the land, shouldn't her name be "Ceausescu"? Any difference between Palin's ideal situation and Romania in the 80's? Seriously?!!
Sarah Palin Is "W" in a blue dress!!! As a woman I'm NOT fooled. Palin would send women's rights back to the dark ages.
She's even more extreme than Bush--she's a brunette Ann Coulter. She's Dobson in a dress.
Wendy: Do you remember the days of ME TARZAN-YOU JANE ? It's back with lipstick.
Sarah would only liberate Alaska from the union if it was God's will, and as her pastor has said, Alaska is to be a refuge for the lower 48 in the end days, so Sarah has no intention of liberating Alaska at this point in time. Please stop slandering her with this claim, and see your own HPost link for proof:

At first I thought you were being sarcastic, then I read your previous posts. Please...keep posting wherever you can, including right winged blogs. You will reveal her to be the religious zealot she is in a way that we never can.
religion is really taking it on the chin. I'm actually against abortion, and have some simillar views as republicans pretend to have. They just change what is right or moral all the time. I think honesty (100%) is most important, and then not stealing after that. most, probably all politicians have fallen short of that. I think maybe Obama is honest. He deserves a chance.
Funny stuff... At first glance, I thought this was written by some neo-con espousing the virtues of Ms. Palin, but it turned into an increasingly cynical and sarcastic take on her *ahem* qualifications... Good work - you had me nervous there for a second...
You must watch this, it is hilarious!
