    Palin

    I have heard her speak, and time after time, to me, she's an idiot. She's an idiot for thinking and agreeing to run for VP. She is not smart enough or polished enough or experienced enough. Sorry. Sarah needs to stay where she is and wait for another phone call, hopefully years and years from now, if ever.

    She is one huge embarrassment to me.

    Each article I read about her and every time I see her interviewed etc. she confirms my suspicions - yep - she's out of her league, plain and simple.

    Yes RICHARD, you have admirably tried to stay out of the fray.

    But as you admit (I think) to not being a woman let me explain some things to you.

    Because a politican has, has had or will have mense does not mean I have to support her.

    Females are allowed to disagree with other females.

    Just as blacks do not have to agree or support every black person who runs for political office.

    Just as I KNOW you do not agree with every politican with gonads.

    Does that mean you are
    nasty, vengeful, mean spirited and just plain rude?
    Or do you reserve that for women who disagree with other women?

    And...based on your misogynistic rant (again!)...how do you justify the men who disagree with Ms. Palin's politics. You know...like George Will?

    Let me explain to you...the criticism I have seen on this and other threads from women has been about Ms. Palin political positions, statements, actions and qualifications.

    Not how she tilts her head, the jewelry she does or doesn't wear, the name she chooses to use, what she does or doesn't look like naked, or any of her body functions.

    It is possible to see Ms. Palin as a politican -- irrespective of gender. And agree or disagree accordingly.

    Your defense of Ms. Palin does puzzle me as you usually have such disdain for successful women.

    Gosh darn it all!

    Perhaps I'm just not reading between the lines here... but I still don't see the problem

    I love the standards by which women politicians are measured.

    No comments or complaints about the blithering, blinking, botoxed bimbette, Nancy Pelosi.

    Or how's about any of the other Cah Lee Fuh Nee ahn women idio----ah, dopes who run the way things are? Stay frazzled and vengeful.

    Again, I love to watch all the pundits and read the columns that disparage women-mostly written by women.

    It shows a real scummy side of how people react to things in real life.

    Mein Gott!

    So, no one wants to argue against my rant?

    Hmmm, I could be called a liar, a hypocrite, a chauvanist and what else?
    Just as I thought. Maybe there was a hint of truth in it.

    Sugar and spice and everything nice?

    Try Sweet and Low and Mace. Artificial Sugar and the base for tear gas.

    --------------

    Yep, it is the mean high school girl scenario all over again.


    Mean girls snapping at the gal is popular at the moment....

    She may be the bimbette, stupid gal. But, check her out.

    She looks good in a dress, has nice legs and everyone wants to dance with her. She may be guilty of pulling the wool (or elk fur) over everyone's eyes-but she's out on the dance floor.

    There is a differnce between waters that are deep and unknown and the shallow, little rivers that only serve to erode the banks on which they flow.

    If that sounds a little too philosophical, let me put it into everyday words-

    Don't hate the player-hate yourselves for sitting on the bench.

    LOL I meant I don't get why voting against a change in bar closing time is a big issue.

    Mean boys snapping at the guy is popular at the moment....

    He may be the bimbette, stupid guy. But, check him out.

    He looks good in a suit, has nice pecs and everyone wants to dance with him. He may be guilty of pulling the wool (or elk fur) over everyone's eyes-but he's out on the dance floor.

    Sounds just as silly, doesn't it?

    Don't read between the lines, just read the lines themselves. You evidently
    don't see anything wrong with a bar full of drunks being dumped back onto
    the streets right went most regular folks are heading off to work & kids off
    to school? Sounds like a recipe for disaster & all for just a few more bucks
    into the pockets of bar owners. Sorry, that's wrongheaded in my book.

    What kid do you know that goes to school at 5:30 am?

    so it's better to dump them into the streets at 3 am because they won't kill as many people?

    How about doing more to STOP these people from drinking and driving. I guess that's just too much to ask.

    I have an idea... BAN ALCOHOL. Oh wait... tried that.

    So... NO I don't see a problem with it... What I have a problem with is drunk Driving... PERIOD. Could be at midnight, 2:30, 5:30 or noon or even 5 in the afternoon... but changing the bar hours isn't going to stop drunk driving.

    Amen.

    And no one has addressed Fetal Alcohol Syndrome either.

    Where are the newborns getting booze?

    Maybe there should be laws on what hours during the day you can drink?

    People who work the night shift are going to start drinking when the dayshift is starting. Since the night shift workers dont have open bars to hang out with their buddies, they are going to congregate somewhere and then drive home.

    That stupid comment doen't even deserve a response.

    Do you think a brain damaged infant is funny & a good subject for lame jokes?
