the only interesting thing the past couple of weeks was Palin, both for the shit thrown at her and the shit she threw back

that said, she's so unqualified to be where she is

She's more qualified to be where she's at than Obama is to be where he's at.

HOW?

Obama ran for the Democratic nomination against one of the most formidable political families in history and beat them at the ballot box to secure his place on the Democratic ticket gathering 18 million-plus votes along the way. Palin was just plucked out of obscurity as a token pick because McCain couldn't have Lieberman as his veep. Obama has two Ivy League degrees and Caribou Barbie took 6 years and 5 colleges just to finish with a broadcast journalism degree from the University of Idaho. Obama actually has legislative accomplishments as well as plans for what he'd enact as president and coming from a state as diverse as Illinois and a city as diverse as Chicago has had to deal with a much wider range of issues than Miss Wasilla.

Maybe he can't field dress a moose or give birth to four healthy children and a Downs baby, but he's a billion times more qualified in his position than Palin is in hers.

If you want to disagree with me and say Obama doesn't have the amount of experience or qualifications you think is fit for the presidency - fine. But could you at least stop pretending Palin is?

p.s. Good job picking up on that dogwhistle, ruggy! I knew you could do it!
