Agree with all of this except for the "got" v.s. "elected" part as a Senator because I'm not sure about that part but good with the rest for sure.

Yep agree with all of this too.

The two main things I gathered from reading this thread.

If you want to keep making these type of comparisons you should compare Palin with the guy who is VP...ol' what's his name. Starts with a "B", I think....

Yep...another one I agree with.

"Incompetent" may or may not be true.......we'll be the judge after it's all over..........But "ignorant" certainly isn't. THAT would clearly be Palin.

Currently trying (and failing) to find information that I have previously posted, from a former Palin supporter in Wasilla and The Frontiersman newspaper. Will post it if I can turn it up again.

This is exactly what I'm talking about.
I've read enough to know they had been thinking of it for a long time, and were just looking for an excuse. They belonged to the same neo-con think-tank that advocated spreading American doctrine worldwide.

You might also want to look at this, I think it sums things up quite nicely: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/1..._n_786219.html

I agree with you on many things Hans and I will agree BO is very educated and sophisticated he but lacks knowledge and is unaware of many things that comes with leading a nation.

Palin, I don't even want to touch that one lol

Maybe, but what edge did Bush have? OK he was a Governor, but what knowledge does that provide about leading a nation? It provides relevant skills, yes....... but not too much national/world knowledge IMO.

OK, Bush did serve in the military, but I don't recall if he actually did an active tour......I think he just did his training and then got assigned to a guard base.......Where he blew off his duties frequently due to his political ambitions (and possible drug use, lol)

What kind of man puts political ambitions ahead of flying fighter planes Most guys would give their left nut to do that.

Of course Obama is ignorant.

He actually thinks that with his pissant of an experience, he can actually run a country like the USA.

Or dare I say "hubris"?
