• Sarah Palin Has More Experience than Obama?

    Everyone’s talking about Sarah Palin’s inexperience. She may have served only two years as governor, but according to McCain she’s like totally more experienced than Obama.

    "…John McCain says his vice presidential pick, Sarah Palin, was already an experienced government official while his Democratic rival, Barack Obama, was working as a community organizer."

    She’s so experienced, she read the cover of that Jimmy Hendrix album and was like, “pshaw.” Except instead of being experienced with drugs and setting things on fire, she was an experienced government official.

    "She wasn't. Palin was finishing college, getting married and working as a TV sportscaster when Obama was directing a church-based community group on Chicago's South Side in 1985-88."

    Apparently Palin didn’t enter politics until 1992, but it’s not McCain’s fault dates are all blending together. Do you expect the Highlander to distinguish between 1988 and 1992? Plus, while Obama was just dreaming of change, Palin was really changing things. Mostly just her kid’s diapers, but the point is, she knows about real change. Did you know she’s a reformer?
