Obama admin's OPM, headed by a gay man, reportedly blocks lesbian from getting health benefits
I am beginning to feel very sorry for Sarah Palin......it is scary and sad.
Come on...Palin knew/knows she is not equipped to be VP or President.
I don't feel sorry for her.....She should of said NO when McCain Asked her.
America is better than this. People are still struggling to accept Obama, but it's inevitable! Enough will come around at the end of day.
You can't fake facts! You can talk in generalities, but whe the other person puts facts, numbers, and names on the table it becomes an embarassing thing for the one who's faking it.
I don't feel sorry for Palin. I feel sorry for her children. The Palin pick is horrifying for women like me , for reasons other than her ignorance. I understand many mothers need or want to work. I understand that because of advanced educations, many woman continue their careers when their children are growing up. But, Palin is on a track that she didn't have to take. She is not running for a 9-5 position or one that allows for family emergencies to come before work. I have to say McCain doesn't care about her family either.
If, as many republican pundits are reporting, she’s just been overwhelmed with 34 different coaches telling her to do 34 different things in answering questions – that maturation time could have been used for her to feel confident about herself enough to tell those remaking her “ NO! WYSIWIG!”
But that didn’t happen and now her political brand is tainted and spent.
While I don’t like her politics, her religion seeping into her politics, etc. and would NEVER vote for her, it’s still painful to watch.
Someone may deserve all the trouble they get, but that doesn’t mean you can’t feel something for that person.
Sarah Palin would not even be on the radar if it were not for Idiot America. Any questions?
the nation has an IQ of 3

Is it Thursday yet?
Ignore the polls. Ignore the polls. We must behave as though we are two points behind. Never let up, volunteer, drive people to polling places, knock on doors, donate, make phone calls. We must not get comfortable and over confident.
Subject: Sarah Palin
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75-year old Texas rancher whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Sarah Palin and her bid to be a heartbeat away from being President.
The old rancher said, 'Well, ya know, Palin is a post turtle.' Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a post turtle was. The old rancher said, 'When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle.'
The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain. 'You know she didn't get up there by herself, she doesn't belong up there, she doesn't know what to do while she is up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put her up there to begin with.
The "Blessed Sarah" was ordained by the Christian Right -Dobson, Hagee, Robertson + Clear Channel and their ilk. They threw a Texas sized hissy fit at the very thought of McCain choosing Crist, Pawlenty or Lieberman as running mate. But, McCain sold what was left of his soul not to mention his honor and his credibility and ACCEPTED (not picked) Sarah.
The "Blessed Sarah" should remain at McCain's side to the end of this election because if by the grace of all that is sacred, America survives this and elects Obama, it will mean the final nail in the coffin that is the Republican Brand. It will have more than a few right wing Christians - like those who prayed for divine rain at Obama's acceptance speech to scratch their heads and shout at clouds.
