Gosh. Where to start with this one ...
First, let's look at her phrase, "exclusively concentrating on the administrative side of governance," followed by a whole bunch of phrases belying her initial assertion to concentrate exclusively on the administrative side of government. She could just as easily have said, "'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe," and the Fox "news" reporter, Greta Van Susteren, would still have nodded her head in mock understanding.
Then, Palin wants us all to know that when it comes to energy independence, she will "lead ... in a supportive role." Okee-dokee. Some of us might need to read that one a couple of times, and ponder its wisdom. "All mimsy were the borogroves, and the mome raths outgrabe."
Next, what the heck does "large huge" mean? Anybody? Come on! Take a shot at it. We're usin' our brains here, people! And it hurts!
Palin's on a mission to direct more of our federal dollars toward energy independence, which is code for legislative earmarks for Alaska. And her mission does not include alternative, sustainable, nonpolluting energy development, because that would cost Alaska a substantial amount of those federal dollars, dollars that would instead go to states along our Pacific and Atlantic coastlines, and to states along our north-south wind/solar corridor.
But what the heck. "Joe the Plumber" loves her! As well as all those voters who believe the dog-and-pony show that Joe's on the up-and-up.
One more thing. Gov. Palin talks a lot about transforming and reforming government, yet she has never, to my knowledge, backed those particular action words up with any outlines, or even hints of policy positions, that would actually transform and reform our government. Do her supporters not care that she's talkin' this talk while showing zero evidence of any actual plans to walk this talk into reality?
Only in America can you simply string together a series of words that make little if any substantive sense, and because so many of us have been dumbed down by spending more time in front of our teevees listening to nonsense like this, than we spend reading actual analysis, thinking, considering carefully, and discussing issues rationally with other sensible people, we don't recognize jabberwocky when we hear it.
By the way, my 13-year-old daughter has a question for America: "Why would anyone want to elect a redneck who could end up being our president?"
Anybody have an answer to that one?
A little later, I'll post something about Alaska's tax system. Alaskans don't pay tax. They have socialized their energy industry to help out their own citizens, and they have tapped into the lower 48's tax revenues to subsidize this Alaska system of socialization. Interesting.
Loved what Nicole Belle at C&L had to write about this video clip:
Oh for crying out loud...now this is just plain obstinacy. When you've been criticized for not knowing the job description of the position for which you've been campaigning not once but at least twice in a short two month period, don't you think this is an answer you'd take pains to get right?No wonder why there's a show on the air "Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader"...we're consistently dumbing down the population so that they don't know what a Vice President is for...or what their Constitutional rights are...
We are in the beginning stages of Idiocracy, make no mistake. And Sarah Palin is the posterchild for it.

That Palin is a complete twit is self-evident. This is surely the dimmest bulb ever presented for high office, and makes Dan Quail look like a Rhodes Scholar.
The question I have: is this woman really as dumb as she seems, or are we, by way of her VP job description, getting a glimpse into the future, and a very dark one indeed, should she ever get close to the levers of power. Although Obama is clearly ahead in most all polls, it's not Tuesday night yet, and the very real possibility of a President Palin keeps me awake at night.
To answer your daughter's question:
Eight years ago a bunch of rednecks elected a guy they wanted to have a beer with. Look where that got us.
This time around, these same rednecks will vote for the attractive woman they'd like to sleep with, forgetting the fact that they never got to have a beer with dubya.
Image is everything to this crowd. Not qualifications, policy goals, abilities, or any of the other factors an intelligent voter might consider. Stupidity of this magnitude makes my head hurt.
"It is important to understand that energy independence does not mean closed borders or economic isolation. Energy independence will be achieved by producing abundant, clean and affordable domestic energy through new technology that will enable all countries to do the same. The path to American Energy Independence leads to global energy independence."

If this person doesn't scare you then by all means vote for her.
I vote for your Daughter for VP.
