While watching the hard hitting journalism of "The Daily Show" last night, I found out that Wasilla, Alaska doesn't have a school system, fire department or any other "social services". What?? Why is the Daily Show providing more substantive reporting on the actual responsibilities that Sarah Palin once held than any of the Trad Med?
Like most of the American public, I understand that she is the most unqualified VP nominee in the history of Democracy. The mayor of a city could be a challenging position, but that assumes that city actually does something for the residents. If there is no fire department, no school system, then what does the mayor do?
Sarah Palin is bat-sh*t crazy, theocrat who will use the assumed powers of the Vice Presidency to promote her extremist right wing agenda; an agenda that the majority of Americans rejects.

Why no flag pin?

It's mystifying that Obama's wearing or not wearing a flag pin gets rounds and rounds of criticism, but during the RNC convention, during her first major speech to the nation, while the convention's theme is 'Country First", Sarah Palin (and the rest of her family) wear something other than a US flag pin on their lapels and not one peep from the media. The same ones who are supposed to be in the bag for Obama sure are missing a chance to clobber Palin.

Drudge had a mention that it could be a Blue Star pin, signifying you have a relative in the military. Well isn't that "my family first"? If she was on board with "Country first", shouldn't she be supporting our Country and not her own personal sacrifice?

Just another case of Its Ok If Your A Republican.

As an open democracy, we expect our government to operate honestly and in the service of our laws. Gonzales proved long ago that he was incapable of living to these standards. Anyone not fitted with the political blinders of Bush administration partisanship, has realized by now that Alberto Gonzales has lied to Congress. The latest revelation from FBI Director Mueller’s notes on the fateful visit to John Ashcroft’s hospital bedside directly contradict Attorney General’s congressional testimony.

Director Mueller’s notes reveal just one flagrant example among many that Gonzales isn’t qualified to lead any branch of government, let alone one whose main mission is law enforcement. And yet, he still sits as the head of the Justice Dept.

Like many Americans I find this disgraceful. It is possible, and even preferable to impeach Gonzales, but as long as those who stand by the President are willing to back Gonzales, this option isn’t a politically practical solution.
