Stephen Colbert Wants Sarah Palin For President
Turns out Sarah Palin is way more qualified than we thought. In addition to her experience in foreign policy, national security, and space, she has more executive experience than Obama, Biden and McCain put together.
Sarah Palin should be president, but who should be her running mate?

Poor Kathy Morgan, I know that not everyone has the same political and social agenda, but I find it so hard to understand what people are thinking when they look at Palin with admiration.
You have ONE vote to cast, for the two people you feel are the best suited to run our amazing country… you have to pick two people out of 300,000, and you pick Palin?!!?! Ha! I just don't get it!
All I hear are reactive arguments, how she has the skill set to make her a good fit. All I see are defensive republicans that are too busy arguing to realize that almost any other city mayor or state governor would make a better candidate.
I give you 300,000 million candidates, and with your two votes you choose Sarah Palin? Haha, I just don't understand your judgement or the reasoning involved.
At least you only have one vote, or our country would be in shambles.
Excuse me , 300 million.
Excuse me, 300 million.

This is mean spirited, partisan, and not even very funny. Simply a reiteration of leftist stereotypes of Gov. Palin. I dare you to do the same about Obama.
boo fuckin hoo, you people don't say anything about it when it's done against the democrats so go whine somewhere else.

I'd rather have sunshine out Gov Palin's rear end than have Obama for president.
that's real patriotic of you john, put your happiness in fron t of the country's well being.
John(self-centered american) there, i fixed it for you.
(enough of those in Washington who manage / work by writing legislation with the smell of pork)
the bailout didn't pass at first cause it didn't have enough votes from republicans. they added what too it to get more republican votes? right, pork.
Palin for Presidnet!
That's right, I said it!

I remember Bush vs. Gore. It was said the choice was between a moron and a prick. At least now you have the choice between a gin-soaked megalomaniac (ANOTHER one) and a man who looks like he can hold a conversation over dinner without needing a bib.
Palin's appeal is startling, but then people managed to vote for Bush a 2nd time, after he wasn't even elected the first time! Either people genuinely WANT a gibbering imbecile to have the most powerful position in the world, or there's something fishy about the whole process. (secret think-tank decides who they want president and then puts on elaborate "elections" to fool us into thinking that us voting actually makes the blindest bit of difference) I personally think that anyone who voted for Bush should be registered as mentally handicapped, because next time they might accidentally vote a stapler for president cause they ticked the wrong box due to a lack of understanding of the process (which of those 2 guys you want for pres?).
There seems to be a serious problem with the fact that the majority of people are morons and democracy simply means handing power over to them.
But not too worry, we'll all belong to an extended south-east Asian business empire soon, thanks to the monumental greed by the banks that rode us into this black hole and have been bailed out and rewarded for their greed and stupidity.
One of my concerns is that if Sarah Palin would chance ruining McCain's chances of being elected by going against her own staff's exprience and knowledge and becoming a rogue now, would she aspire to assume McCain's presidency before he is ready to relinquish it? Yes, I am talking coup!
Power hungry people do desperate things. For example, was her speech in Texas so important to her appearance in the minds of others that she would willingly risk the life of "her" unborn child not once but three times? 1) the Flight to Texas and the Flight back after her water broke 2) The lay over in Washington 3) choosing to go to a hospital over 1 hour away (versus 6 minutes),which did NOT have the best NEO-natal care and the hospital 6 minutes away did?
What does that say? If you don't put your child first before your personal ambitions, an unborn baby, how could youpossibly put country first if heaven forbid personal ambitions conflict? WHere would that leave the rest of America??!!!
Let's not overlook she has to date NOT answered a question given to her regarding your and my problems, you know OUR America!!
Megan – the Ralph Stanley line was a joke; get a life. I figured, if you watched Colbert, you must have a sense of humor – maybe not. Buy the way, I’m “offended” by the word “down there.” Up or down can have positive and negative connotations. Southern folks, especially live with a lot of stereotypes; you should know better than to use demographically charged words. That’s discrimination. Shame on you B. Obama supporter.
Megan – what experience does B. Obama have; oh, never mind. ACORN.
Ron – the sunshine comment was a response to another’s comment. I don’t get the “patriotic …my happiness in front of the country’s well being….self-centered American” statement. Rewrite your response, you sound drunk. My patriotic duty is to vote my conscience; in your opinion, if my vote is self centered and un-American, then that’s your problem. Sober up, and rewrite your response.
Remember, I used the socialist word before Joe the Plumber asked his famous question – the shot heard around the world. When I think of Joe the Plumber, I think of the “Emperor’s new suit”; Joe just pointed out that BO’s economic policy is naked and Marxist. He is exposed. Like I said, his past experience and qualifications just don’t pass the “smell” test.
Finally, I saw a photo of Gov. Sarah Palin where she was being “lynched”; in Mississippi, women are valued and for business purposes (to give then an advantage) are given minority status. “Down here”, we are “offended” when a noose is used on a minority group. You probably don’t understand this. I’ve been in integrated schools all my life; I have the experience to know the difference. How about you? People have to have zero tolerance for discrimination; women are the largest group discriminated against. This needs to change; change we can and should believe in.

Ron, do you have a brain? …put your happiness in front of the country's well being…..so, Ron now represents the conscious of the country…..oh mighty Ron.
John(self-centered american) there, i fixed it for you.
OOPS, darn Ron you got me there "-"…how petty; you sound like a pork writer.

Now we agree. The smell of pork is with both parties. I'm a member of the Patriotic Party.
Megan…..Ok, first, why has no one yet told John down there that Ralph Stanley is a musician, not an actual Klansman…you do know that, right? Because from the sound of your comment, I'm not really sure.
You should have retracted your comment. Oh, you mispoke. Learn to read between the lines
Megan
As for Palin, for those of you who believe so strongly in her "experience" would you PLEASE give me examples of all the wonderful foreign policy experience she has,..
……..I don't want her focused on foreign policy; she needs to fix the economy, re-build the manufacturing infracture which both parties have strip mined by outsourcing.
Megan
…all that great executive experience …
She's a governor; that's better than the congressmen who are in bed with multiple lobbyist.
Megan
…..and her superb voting record in Congress…oh, wait, forget that last one………
……I'm glad you caught yourself. At least you don't sound completely stupid….
Megan,
Seriously. I want to know (and for GOD'S sake PLEASE don't tell me Russia is close to Alaska–and yes, she DID say that…..
No Megan. Alaska is next to Thailand where Elf cookies are made.
Megan,
–or that she's the Governor of a state with fewer people than Obama's Congressional district…that tells me absolutely nothing)
……Let's see: Lawyer, Constitutional Lawyer, Civil Rights and ACORN, ACORN, ACORN. OK, Alaska vs ACORN. Who wins?
