WE VOTE OUR OWN TERRORISTS INTO OFFICE


Making a blog about Palin is my idea of 'uselessly redundant' but I feel like a moth to a flame. It boggles my mind that there are ANY people who still believe she could/should become President of the United States. Not only does she spurn the modern digital Palm Pilot, but works with the original Palm surrounded by five of her fingers at the end of her wrist! In my 'You might be a Redneck if...." calendar, that was one of the jokes of the day...you might be a redneck if your Palm Pilot is your hand!

While she is, for whatever reason, the darling of the news media at the moment, there are others who are equally unfit for their jobs. Michelle Bachmann has been called the Joe McCarthy of 2010, by many. It seems we have to have a Chicken Little with us all the time. Being frightened is bad enough when you're hysterical, but it is frightening to the rest of us when our world is being ruled by paranoia. It seems that campaign managers use that paranoid card quite adeptly. For a lovely example of it, just pay attention to that which the Republicans are lying about regarding HealthCare.

We also have the Republican Congresswoman, Virginia Foxx, who believes that Matthew Shepard's death was a hoax. Appropriately, she made it on Keith Olbermann's "worst person in the world' list. 4/29/09 - Countdown's Worst Person : Keith covers Bachmann's continual factual gaffes, but more incendiary are Republican Congresswoman Virginia Foxx's comments that a well known brutal hate crime was a hoax. Unbelievable!
