I've heard some say that Sarah Palin has no experience.
It's all over the Internet,news sites,blogs,emails etc.the morning and evening news.
Well here is a tad bit of info that doesn't seem to be as popular as the trash being talked about the woman!
Alaska is the first line of defense in our missile interceptor defense system. The 49th Missile Defense Battalion of the Alaska National Guard is the unit that protects the entire nation from ballistic missile attacks. It’s on permanent active duty, unlike other Guard units.
As governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counterterrorism. Her exposure to classified material may rival even Biden's.
She's also the commander in chief of the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF), a federally recognized militia incorporated into Homeland Security's counterterrorism plans.
Palin is privy to military and intelligence secrets that are vital to the entire country's defense. Given Alaska's proximity to Russia, she may have security clearances we don't even know about.
According to the Washington Post, she first met with McCain in February, but nobody ever found out. This is a woman used to keeping secrets.
She can be entrusted with our national security, because she already is.

She really is a phenomenal woman. The more I learn about her the more it like her.
Besides she really is for the people. She didn't court McCain and the GOP looking for this nod. She was chosen on merit. She isn't as self serving as all the others.
She didn't run for political office thinking..."In eight years I can run for president and be the first lady president." She ran for office because she wanted change. She wanted to clean things up. She took on both parties and cleaned the corruption up.
I think naming her as his running mate is the smartest thing McCain has done his whole career.

I agree with you 100%!!!
Maybe there is hope with the RepublicRats!
We definitely need all the corruption cleaned up!!!
I think she would be a fresh change... Wish she was at the top of the ticket. It would be nice to have a real human being who relates to the "average joe".

You know what I hate about Palin? It is that she is a hypocrit!
She wants to tell everyone how to be morally but she has not followed that path in her own life!
She wants to tell everyone that they should not screw until they are married...well..she did! Her son is proof..so what though... happens to alot of people.
She wants to teach "only abstinence" in school. See how good that turned out? The circumstances with her latest pregnancy and birth only point to that she was trying to rid herself of her son while he was viable.(taking jogs, instead of going to a local hospital when she was leaking fluid)...hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm? Not to mention...since she accepted VP...you only see her pregnant daughter holding the baby. She has a baby and wants to run off and be VP? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?
I have a BIG problem with people who try to pass judgement and force people to conform to their own shortcomings and tow the line or else....

Huffington Post maybe? I've seen her hold her baby many times. Flip the channel.

yes...I have seen but at this convention she used the kid as a cover for her daughters tummy. She is exploiting her daughters pregnancy to get headlines and then parades them in front of the media? I will bet you it really is a shotgun wedding...lol
What I am saying is....don't preach to me lady..you ain't perfect either!

If she is going to force legislation on people but is totally guilty herself then she has no right to even "think" to do that. I mean...her life is so "perfect" isn't it? She did it before marriage..lol

I think everyone shoots for ideals....in an un-ideal world. I strive to be a better person that I was 10 years ago...and miss the mark, but striving isn't a sin in itself. I haven't seen the "preachiness" from her.

Yup..you strive to be a better person for mistakes. My problem is that she is no saint and imposing things on other people or forcing them to feel guilty for things she herself was very guilty of is someone that turns me off. She isn't speaking it but her actions speak for itself. I am not saying she is all bad... Just don't pass judgement on what you yourself is guilty of and this is a big issue.
She was for the bridge to nowhere before she was against it. And in keeping with the true nature of a reformer she kept all the money they were given to build it instead of returning it. So in her speech she shoulda said, "Thanks but ..thanks."
And it looks like she won't be giving interviews to real reporters so all those secrets are safe for now. And after all don't we need another secretive bunch of idealogues in the White House? Ah-hem.
I think the bottom line is....she fell into all those "titles" She didn't run because she wanted all that. And I am sure most Alaskans are not even aware of that.
If you are a mcCain supporter...you'll find all good things to support your backing him
If you are a OBama supporter...you'll find reasons to back him
No one will change anyones mind here. The battle lines have been drawn
I have yet to decide... currently weighing this decision based on the lesser of 2 evils....unfortunately
I'm regret in saying after all the votes have been tallied as it stands right now, I will not be in attendance to any celebration or victory gala/party. but more or less sitting and praying and waiting to see if I made the right decision.
how i wish I could so adamant and positive about this election.
It's all smoke and mirrors....once the smoke fades, the true self will show.... be interesting if they came up with a pic in the rag mag of her doing Clinton...
I am of observer status......being from the other dside of the planet and not directly involved in the issue of American presidency.....but....
what happens in America will ultimately effect us all even on this piece of rock in the middle of nowhere i come from....
so I follow the international networks and make my own conclusions....
two points I would like to make.....
somebody who declares to be a staunch conservative Christian and yet is proud to be shown all over the planet shooting a sub machine gun whose only use is that of shooting down human beings is absolutely unacceptable to my etichs.....
and somebody who declares publicly states that the melting of the ice cap in Alaska will make it easier to access new oil reserves is definately somebody I would not like to see in the leadership segment of the most powerful contry in the world.
People like that will only carry on adding to the global problems that have been shafted on us by shifty American politicians.
Not intending to offend anyone of course......it doesn't just happen in the states....and niether is the states the cause of the problems we face gloablly.....but it is the country that creates a good 40% of global pollution and it is also one of the largest armaments producers on the planet.....
But we have a party that knows how to use the politics of resentment like it's nobodys business. To grab power and hang onto it, they'll gladly pit one group of Americans against another and of course both get the short end of the stick in the long run.
And too, as a group we're gullible people as the last two elections have proven so don't be surprised if the party of resentment works their magic one more time.

Tend to agree......
forgot who actually said it, but this saying has remains engrained in my brains....
I cannot understand how such a great nation as America can choose such stupid individuals for thier leadership.....
