She Played The Flute?!
John McCain has just chosen some chick named Sarah Palin as his running mate. She's the governor of Alaska or something like that. I don't know her deal. I think she's anti-anything fun. But that's not what I want to talk about. I want to talk about her beauty pageant past!
Sarah was Miss Wasilla 1984. She won second place in the Miss Alaska contest, but was voted Miss Congeniality. Miss Congeniality basically means you're homely but you smile a lot. Sarah played the flute during the talent portion. THE FLUTE?! It's Alaska! Shouldn't she have skinned a trout or danced with a grizzly bear? No wonder she lost. I did a quick search on YouTube, but couldn't find shit from the pageant. I'm sure shit will come up in the next few days.
And and I thought Heidi Montag was locked as McCain's VP?

While the female part of me is cheering at the fact that he picked a woman, I am annoyed as hell because once again McCain is playing games. This is a TOTAL rebuttal to the fact that Obama didn't pick Hillary Clinton. McCain is such a tool.

"TEDDY'S BACK!"
Okay Bradi, I Googled this for you since I'm on my lunchbreak:
Sarah Palin, 44, has been governor of Alaska since 2006
Before becoming governor, Palin was mayor and council member of a small town
Palin known for backing tough ethical standards, focus on energy, natural resources
(CNN) -- Sen. John McCain has chosen Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his vice presidential candidate on the Republican ticket for the White House, the campaign said Friday.
Palin, 44, is a first-term governor who unseated incumbent Gov. Frank Murkowski in the Republican primary in 2006 and went on to defeat former Gov. Tony Knowles, a Democrat, in the general election.
She will be the first woman to be nominated for vice president as a Republican and only the second to run for vice president on a major party ticket, after Democrat Geraldine Ferraro in 1984.
Palin also will be the first Alaskan to be on the ticket for either party. Watch possible reasons for McCain's choice »
Palin made her name in part by backing tough ethical standards for politicians. During the first legislative session after her election, her administration passed a state ethics law overhaul.
Nevertheless, she is under investigation for her firing of a state official, Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan. She has been instructed to hand over documents and recordings of telephone conversations as part of the probe, which grew out of allegations she sacked Monegan for refusing to fire her former brother-in-law from the state police.
Palin acknowledged that a member of her staff made a call to a trooper in which the staffer suggested he was speaking for the governor.
Palin has admitted that the call could be interpreted as pressure to fire state trooper Mike Wooten, who was locked in a child-custody battle with Palin's sister.
"I am truly disappointed and disturbed to learn that a member of this administration contacted the Department of Public Safety regarding Trooper Wooten," Palin said. "At no time did I authorize any member of my staff to do so."
Palin suspended the staffer who made the call.
McCain apparently is making a concerted effort to reach out to former supporters of Sen. Hillary Clinton who may be unhappy with the choice of Sen. Barack Obama as the Democratic nominee.
Reacting to the choice of Palin, Ferraro said, "I believe that people will look back and assess how Hillary was treated by the media during the campaign primaries. And it remains to be seen whether or not the ugly head of sexism -- in the media -- will raise its head again." iReport.com: What do you think of McCain's VP pick?
Most of the speculation about McCain's choice had focused on former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and Sen. Joseph Lieberman, an independent from Connecticut. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas also had been mentioned as a possible long shot if McCain were seeking a woman as his running mate.
Palin is the youngest person ever elected governor of Alaska and the first woman to hold the job.
She was dubbed "Sarah Barracuda" by opponents when she was mayor of the town of Wasilla, Alaska, resurrecting a nickname she earned as a state champion high school basketball player, according to the Almanac of American Politics.
She was elected mayor of Wasilla at 32, defeating a three-term incumbent. Wasilla had a population of 5,469 in 2000, according to the city's Web site.
She is married to Todd Palin, an oil production operator on Alaska's North Slope. They have five children, including a son who enlisted in the Army last year.
Little known outside Alaska, Sarah Palin is a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association and takes part in two of the state's popular pastimes -- fishing and hunting, according to her biography on the governor's Web site.
Palin has focused on energy and natural resources policy during her short stint in office, and she is known for her support of drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a position opposed by McCain but supported by many grass-roots Republicans.
Born in Idaho, she is a longtime Alaskan and a Protestant. Her biography says she arrived in Alaska in 1964 "when her parents came to teach school in Skagway."
She graduated from Wasilla High School in 1982 and received a bachelor of science degree in communications-journalism from the University of Idaho in 1987.
Congressional Quarterly said her past occupations included being a commercial fishing company owner, outdoor recreational equipment company owner and sports reporter.
Palin also made an unsuccessful run for lieutenant governor in 2002, Congressional Quarterly said. iReport.com: McCain's pick called "a stroke of genius"

See the thing is more people are pretty middle of the road nowadays, and the people who are extremely Left or Right are actually in the minority. Or at least that's what I tell myself to console, I guess. In any case, he's a good person, and there are plenty of things we do agree on, so no reason why I should exclude hanging out with repubs. Makes it fun to have heated discussions that way...

Hmmmm, say isn't the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska? Don't the repiglicans want to drill for oil there? What a coincidence!!!!
(evidence from the government itself says that drilling wouldn't make a dent in the price we pay at the pump. The drive to drill in the Arctic Refuge is about oil company profits and lifting barriers to future exploration in protected lands, pure and simple. It has nothing to do with energy independence. Opening the Arctic Refuge to energy development is about transferring our public estate into corporate hands so that it can be liquidated for a quick buck.)

She looks like that chick from that stupid Freddie Prinze Jr. Movie... you know the one? Also, For those saying there isn't enough Obama bashing: the first thought that popped into my head when the rumors started floating around that Obama would run for President was "Poor guy, he's so young. He'll be the first black President, and assasinated in the first week". Swear to God! I still know that it's sadly inevitable...

If this is NOT pandering for the vote of women by trying to put just any female in there is just pathetic!
McCain has officially made his first HUGE mistake thinking we are all a bunch of lemmings and do not think for ourselves. AZZHAT!

You know what really irks me is that my boyfriend is three months older than I am, is a republican (or just conservative) and is a student, so he has plenty of free time, but he knows absolutely nothing about the candidates and where they stand on the issues! Everytime I urge him to at least research his candidate (frankly, I don't care who he votes for, that's his decision and his alone) he always just changes the subject and says he doesnt want to discuss politics with me! Grr... I just want to slap him sily then, but whatever. If McCain wins, he can deal with the consequences...

It is a really good deal!
I know a few couples who have split the leave too so that both mom and dad get time off with bebe.
I know France's maternity leave is pretty awesome, as well as some of the other 'perks' you get there (I don't know all of the details but they get government appointed nanny visits too).

there's nothing McCain can do to make the dems happy, there's nothing Obama can do to make the republicans happy.
this election is being determined by left sheep, right sheep, and indifferent sheep
If McCain really wanted to pull a mindfuck on the libs he could have picked : Brig. Gen. Marcelite J. Harris, the first Black woman general in the U.S. Air Force or someone like that
