Thanks to Charlie Gibson, we now know that Palin is an idiot.... she doesn't even know what the Bush Doctrine is.... what an embarassment Palin is to American women who are actually intelligent and qualified to do more than be a brood sow barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen.

There is no rational explanantion for McSame's choice of Palin except the GOP's continuing hatred towards the majority non-white, non-male Americans.   McSame, who has spent a quarter century in DC defending the prefered position of white men has now chosen a so-called female running mate who has dedicated her life to putting women and non-white skinned folks into their place.  What McSame doesn't understand is that this is 2008 and the politics of the 20th century do no apply.  Bigots who were acceptable a decade ago are no longer acceptable in 2008.  The old bigots are dying off... thank god... so, McSame needs to find a new message.. educated Americans understand that McSame/Palin are no better than Reagan his racist/sexist bigotry.
