Palin, a reckless choice
I believe Cheney made the remark. Its among his few criticisms I can agree with.
More than that, Sarah Palin takes Fox News commentator job
I guess this is what Palin meant by wanting in someway to cash in on her notoriety. Quit Governor of Alaska to collect speaking money, a book deal, and now this.
Also, McCain aide: Palin believed candidacy ‘God’s plan’
What leads people to believe this kind of thing? Why can’t the candidacy of Ron Paul be God’s plan? It’s just another asinine statement demonstrating the weakness of the people we have running in politics today.
We truly have the most feeble minded lemmings lurking in and around Congress.
Consider what is more reckless. What was reckless about Palin as McCains choice exactly? How would Cheney answer that question. Was it meant politically as a candidate or in office as VP? If the publication is accurate and “unprepared for high office” is what he thought then we have to assume the latter.
Why should we as a people have a government that according to Cheney’s own words can elect someone so unprepared but to nearly become the most powerful person on earth? In other words if any earthling was asked who is the most powerful person on earth, most likely the president of the U.S. would be listed number one. Removing the president of the U.S. from this survey and the earthlings choices would probably be hard to guess.
So it seems obvious that for now, the president of the U.S. is the most powerful person in the world. I contend this is not a favorable outcome, it is a least desirable situation. If “unqualified” persons can be elected certainly we should argue for a smaller more humble if not impotent government.
Having a monetary standard, and a truly limited government as the majority of the founding generation articulated then nothing like 8 years of Bush or the present government would be allowed to carry on the criminal activity that has become business as usual.
