Why did McCain choose a global warming denialist for VP?

Question

I am irate. I am not voting for McCain, but I thought at least we had two candidates who were serious about global warming. Nope. Palin is just your typical little Christian fundamentalist who denies global warming and wants creationism taught in schools and abortions outlawed. No wonder Rush Limbaugh likes her. My stock in McCain has gone waaaay done. Obama MUST win! James Dobson is getting his first erection since Jerry Falwell gave his first lecture about the end of the world in the whitehouse to Ronald Reagan. I emplore thee-- do NOT vote for these people!!!

Answer 1

Christ, go pray to your Al Gore shrine.

Edit: Would you mind sending us some research not from some left wing nuts that proves Global warming is man-made?

Answer 2

because he is brilliant...and global warming is bull.

*******************Research???

I know where I got my earned doctorate..

I am a certified fraud examiner..was the director of internal audit..the director of decision support..

I KNOW HOW TO RESEARCH...I can testify as an expert witness..Can you say that???

Global warming is bull.

Sure we need more fuel efficient cars, and to drill for oil off Florida.

We don't need screwy policies about ethanol..and environmental wackos.

YOU KNOW THE ENVIRONMENTAL WACKOS WERE AGAINST THE BETTER LEVEES IN NEW ORLEANS...and thus they were not built AND ALL THOSE PEOPLE LOST THEIR LIVES AND HOMES..

Wackos...just cost lives and money.

*** BTW...Your stock in McCain has gone "down not done".

Answer 3

What utter nonsense.

1) Look at the climate patterns.

2) Actually look at the research about the temperature changes on the planet, including the pattern of ice ages.

3) Look at the last pattern of claims of "global cooling".

"The Sky is Falling!"

We're tired of it.

Folks, don't believe the hype, do your research.

Answer 4

Perhaps it could be BS? I remember the 70's. On the cover of Time!!! THE COMING ICE AGE!!!!! It freaked me out! The world was going to freeze! OH NO'S!!!!!

You should not post dude. The computer you are on is not good for the environment. The plastics and slave labor that made it are not good. The power you use is not good for the environment, the car you drive is not good, the waste you create, the Co2 you make when you breath!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!

Epic yawn and epic fail!

NObama 08!!!!!

BTW, the bike that you DON'T ride to work was made in China with NO U.S. regulations and is far worse to the world you pretend to care about.

Answer 5

to balance out his ticket in a chaotic way

Answer 6

Simply because mccain can't win without the hardcore base.  He was reaching too far away from the base and then realized that there weren't as many votes there as he thought.  

Another thing is Mccain and obama are still flip-flopping;  against drilling, now for drilling and so.   While the flipping is still going on neither mccain or obama are going to have solid views.

That erection bit was unnecessary.  

Answer 7

Because she is a woman and an independent..so he thought that those factors could gain leverage with the demographics

Answer 8

Oh no! A person who thinks for themselves what will we do? We better force her to watch the inconvenient truth 20 times in a row until shes brainwashed.

Answer 9

After Obama wins, and serves two terms, Palin will run for president with Karl Rove!

Answer 10

Are people really voting on the basis of global warming?  

Answer 11

I think that Obama hit it out of the park last night when he made the statement that this election is about what the American people want in 2008. Bringing a right- wing, gun-packing, soccer-mom from Alaska onboard as a Vice Presidential candidate in hopes of pulling the Clinton vote appears to be "Carl Rove" business as usual and another insult to the voters of this nation on the part of the GOP. McCain and the rest of the Republicans really don't get it this time. What do we have to show for the past eight years of Republican control of the White House? We have an economy in the tank, a dismal decline in U S standing around the world, an unnecessary war Iraq for the benefit big oil, and a government that has been the most unresponsive to the electorate in the history of this nation since that of Herbert Hoover. The packed house in Mile High Stadium and the 35 million television viewers that watched Obama's speech last night should provide the Republican Party with a clue as to its aspirations for maintaining the Presidency. We're eight years overdue for a change and a McCain/Palin ticket isn't it. less

Answer 12

It's amazing. You guys didn't even know she existed yesterday and now after a few hours you start this slander c**p!

Is it just the fear that you dems are going to loose again that drives you to this type of behavior?

By the way, has obama ever mentioned what he would actually chane in dc. I haven't hear yet. And please do not respond by saying he will lower taxes. Dems just don't do that!
