I wouldn’t know
McCain standing next to someone he apparently doesn't know
So Matt Lauer asks John McCain if it’s true that Sarah Palin was barely vetted before being proposed as Vice President, and McCain says “I wouldn’t know”.
This is the guy who wanted to be President? Was he paying attention to his own campaign?
He’s starting to make Sarah look like the smart one.
Totally Unauthorized 
Just when you think you’ve heard all there is that’s hard to believe in politics!
Sarah P. debuted on Fix News as a paid commentator. She is, after all, the most ambitious Republican to come down the pike in a long while, when she isn’t fishing for them in her cute l’il waders. This has to be one of the major coups of her career. Where will she go next? To N. Korea?
S. Korea? As soon as she is told why there are two Koreas, she’ll decide.
Oh great! I suppose you think it’s MUCH smarter to pick a known plagiarist as your running mate! Biden stole his work in law school, and maybe we can consider that the action of a kid (or maybe you think that’s how everyone gets through school, so it’s no biggie). However, even as a “mature” politician he was caught stealing a speech during one of his many runs at the presidency in 1988. And this was only the one he was caught stealing. At least Palin’s words are hers or her speechwriters’ – god knows I don’t agree with a lot of what she says, but it’s refreshing to know she isn’t as slick and cynical as Big Mouthed Joe or President Hussein. That’s apparently her appeal to a lot of people.
Reagan was considered pretty stupid (as was Nixon – remember?), but damn he could lead and motivate! I hated the guy, but by the end of his terms I kinda respected him. As an academic, I had to reexamine my attitudes regarding leadership. I always wanted a really smart guy with his finger on the button. Jimmy Carter was probably the smartest president in my lifetime, but what a crappy president and leader! He was horrible compared with Reagan. Now just to cement his legacy he’s become a bag man for Hamas. Idiot.
Clinton was sort of smart, but it was the wonkishness borne of Poly Sci and Law classes – just like Gore he can talk a smooth line and throw jargon around, but just enough to convince folks he knows what he’s talking about. His understanding of technical stuff like econ or any of the sciences is a mile wide and an inch deep. He’s a good speaker, but he could never achieve the results that Reagan got. Bosnia was his only success in the foreign policy area -look what a mess he made of Rwanda and al-Qaeda, not to mention his own presidency.
Rambling…. oh yeah, I’m just not impressed with people who like to make fun of others for their academic failings – like laughing at Dan Quayle (which I dutifully did, of course) for his inability to spell potato correctly, or Bush’s inability to pronounce “nuclear” and other words correctly. So just which law school did YOU graduate from, smart guy?
