VP Debate

Daily Show Clips:

Vagina Americans

Rove/O'Reilly

Please watch this short clip from the actual Couric/Palin interview. Her ineptness is so NOT FUNNY considering the possibilities that are looming ahead of us if the country votes without thinking: Palin Can't Name One Newspaper You can check out Couric's entire interview online. And you really should because the ENTIRE thing looks like this clip. At least she is consistant......

And this email has been circulated around quite a bit, and we have definitely done our share of forwarding! Nevertheless, we think it is worth posting:

Let me see if I have this straight...

- If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you're "exotic and different." *However, grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, you’re a "quintessential American story".

- If your name is Barack you're a "radical, unpatriotic Muslim”. (who, by the way, is a Christian) *However, name your kids Willow, Trig, and Track, you're a “maverick”.

- Graduate from Harvard law School and you are "unstable". *However, attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you’re "well grounded".

- If you spend 3 years as a community organizer, become the first black president of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law Professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs Committees, you "don’t have any real leadership experience". *However, if your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council, 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the Governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you’re "qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive and next in line behind a man in his eighth decade of life".

- If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 daughters, you're "not a real Christian". *However, if you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, and then lied about the timeline in your autobiography you're a "true Christian".

- If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are "eroding the fiber of society". *However, if, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state's school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you're "very responsible".

- If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your "family's values don't represent America's". *However, if your husband is nicknamed 'First Dude', with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA , your family is "extremely admirable".

OK, much "clearer" now....
