I think this is really funny...?

Question

I think that Obama supporters downing McCain's VP pick is really funny. The biggest thing they can come up with is her lack of experience. The funniest part about that is, the Rep. 2nd pick has more experience than theDem's. 1st pick. Oh and you know what else I have been lol-ing my butt off about Biden said he, himself wouldn't vote for Obama, now he's his VP? Take the advice of Biden, Obama is not ready to lead this country. Any other McCain supports laughing their butts off about how the Democrats are struggling to come up with ways to bash McCain VP pick?

Answer 1

OK so go vote for McCain. Now please move out of the way for the next president B Obama. Thank  you so much.

Answer 2

it doesnt really matter who wins, i dont even know why people vote.

i mean no president ever keeps his promises or follow through with what he says hes going to "fight" for. we havent seen a president like that since lincoln..and the only reason lincoln was good is because there was no such thing as gas prices

Answer 3

Stop laughing at me, and listen...

We are just throwing the "inexperienced" card back at you...

So, YOU can't play it no more... GAME OVER! NEXT.

(Game recognize game, baby girl... learn about it.)

Answer 4

Personally, I prefer the more creative ways they twist things, rather than the outright lies

Of course, when they say that Palin's husband is 'in big oil/an oil lobbyist/and oil exec' just because he worked for BP on an oil rig (that's a blue collar job, btw), that's such a HUGE twist, it's actually a lie...It was funny the first 100 times, but now it's just really old, and this is less than 24 hours after they started the attack (which was the minute she was announced as running mate)...It's still a LITTLE humorous, when you consider the FACT that Palin actually smacked down big oil and pissed them off...The irony is interesting I suppose.

I just hope they come up with new material from time to time, just to keep it from getting too stale. Maybe they're in the process of making up some childish name for her even as we discuss it..

Ooo, I can't wait for the unveiling [/sarcasm]

Answer 5

It gets even funnier when we remember that the president does not, in any way, run the country but that the Congress - whose members remain unknown but know they'll be re-elected - does run the country...as the Constitution's authors intended.

I neither like nor dislike Obama, McCain, Biden or Palin. I ignore them equally because the government is structure to keep that office under the thumbs of those we elect directly.

...

Upon further reading over the past 30-or so hours, I do like one of them. One only: Palin.

Answer 6

Hey AlliSNOW-you are so transparently NOT a black woman, nice try though.

I see how Conservatives just throw stuff out with no facts, they obviously no nothing about or don't mind lying about their competition-despite their "deep faith" ha!- Almost as funny as McCain choosing Palin - THAT is what's really funny.  Anti-feminist to get democratic women votes-really?

Well they've already given us one "good" thing - Giggles all over America!!

Answer 7

that's not really funny... these people are trying and some will succeed at being the leaders of the free world.  All politicians are dispicable and untrustworthy and If you believe that voting for McCain or Obama will result with all of your problems solved, you need to wake up, honey

Answer 8

Oh, you got it right!!!  When I saw they picked Biden, I laughed my *** off for days!!!  Everything from "he is NOT ready to be Pres..." to "He sure talks well for an African American"  WHAT THE F#@K?!!!  And then he STILL picks him for VP!!!  I just want to snap my fingers and replace the joke of a Dem ticket with two viable candidates - it's worse than "Springer" highlights!!!

Answer 9

Yes it's all so ridiculous. But then, all politicians are idiots.  

Answer 10

Don't believe every thing you hear on Y!A. Obama has more experience. I don't know where they got that.

My turn.

OBAMA FTW!!

Sarah Palin: Mayor of a town with 9000 people

OBAMA: Community Organizer for 5 years

Sarah Palin: Governor for 2 years

OBAMA: State legislature for 7 years

Sarah Palin: ? for 0 years.

OBAMA: U.S. Senator for 2 years

Obama: 14 years experience

Palin: about 5 years.

Answer 11

Yes...you've hit the nail directly on the head and it's hilarious!

Answer 12

youre an idiot and need to get a clue. instead of listening to everyone else  watch the news and only listen to the things that come directly from the candidates mouths McCain is 73 years old, has had cancer twice and he picks a person he doesn't know personally - has only met once - and he places the entire welfare of the nation in her hands.A woman no one had even heard about until today will soon be responsible for taking over the country if McCain dies.. we dont have to find anything to bash her about, her and mccain handed that to us on a silver platter, your just as stupid as they are.

Answer 13

I think they've now moved on to how stupid women will be to vote for this obvious puppet of McCain's. Like he picked her out of a supermodel catalog or something.

Answer 14

I am pretty amused. It will only get better from here on in.

Answer 15

It's hilarious. McCain took the wind out of Obama's sails. Palin is a strong tough lady who doesn't mind to take on corrupt politicians regardless of party.

Answer 16

Yeah, sorry but this isn't funny ..

Answer 17

I think it is not funny.  Your facts are misleading.  It has always been the republicans that brought up experience as the advantage McCain has over Obama. Now if you include Sarah tenure on the city counsel in the city of Wasilla, then yes she has had more government paying jobs than Obama.  I think make a an debate about this type of work experience within a VP debate will be fruitless. Obama was a civil rights community organizer with a law degree from Harvard for 5 years.  These facts defuse the RNC point of experience being an important issue.

Obama

"A graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he served as president of the Harvard Law Review, Obama worked as a community organizer and practiced as a civil rights attorney before serving in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. He taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. Following an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2000, he announced his campaign for the U.S. Senate in January 2003. After a primary victory in March 2004, Obama delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004. He was elected to the Senate in November 2004 with 70% of the vote."

Sarah Palin:

Palin was elected governor in late 2006 after defeating incumbent governor Frank Murkowski in the Republican primary and former Democratic governor Tony Knowles in the general election. She was the youngest person, and the first woman, to be elected governor of Alaska. Before becoming governor, Palin served two terms on the Wasilla, Alaska, City Council from 1992 to 1996, and was elected mayor of Wasilla twice, in 1996 and 1999. She also ran unsuccessfully for lieutenant governor of Alaska in 2002. Palin holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism from the University of Idaho.

Answer 18

Answer 20

I think I love you.

Answer 21

obama has done this

Obama: (some, not all)

Senate Accomplishments:

Since entering the U.S. Senate in January 2005, Senator Obama has written approximately 890 bills and co-sponsored an additional 1096.

Senators Obama and McCain have been running to be the nominee for President for their parties since January 2007. Therefore the 890 bills written by Senator Obama and the 1096 he co-sponsored all occurred in a 2-year span. That shows that he is a prolific and tireless Senator.

Because of the long-drawn-out nature of passing laws in the Senate many of his bills are still in committee and some were vetoed by republicans. Senator Obama has an impressive record by anyone’s standard.

For someone who supposedly has no record (according to his competitors) his record of accomplishments are extraordinarily impressive and inspiring.

· Secure Fence Act. Authorized construction of fencing and other security improvements along the United States–Mexico border

· Amendment to the State Children’s Health Insurance Program providing one year of job protection for family members caring for soldiers with combat-related injuries Passed in Senate

· Energy Policy Act of 2005 to add $200 million for Function 270 (Energy) for the demonstration and monitoring of carbon capture and sequestration technology by the Department of Energy Passed in Senate
