I'll say this about Sarah Palin's speech last night. The writers who wrote it, and who wrote all the speeches deserve an accadamy award. There is no way Mrs. Palin wrote all but a fraction of that speech herself. It was too cleaver for a dingbat like her to have come up with those one liners. She threw everything but the book in including the relative land masses of Delaware and Alaska. And the things she said about Obama were crude, tacky, utterly tasteless not to mention completely untrue. To equat her two bit corruption laden job as mayer of a small hick town with the community work Obama was doing to actually improve the lot of humanity and his own people, - -is without justification. And how dare Guliani bring up the line about "They would never ask her those questions about raising her kids and being Vice President is she wern't a woman". I don't know about you but they say women have a better sense of smell than a man. And this Convention's alledge embrace of feminism doesn't pass the smell test. I've heard Palin was still nursing her youngest child. No, they'd never accuse s man of that! There are still doubts as to whether it wasn't daughter Bristol who had the baby and not Sarah, because I'm told Sarah didn't look pregnent either on that fateful plane flight or giving a speech when she was six months pregnent that's on You-Tube, but as Randi Rhodes put it, "was wearing a perfect size six". As Biden says nowhere in the whole convention was there any talk about what anybody will do about anybody's problems in the country. We had Fred Thompson's analogy the other night about "only taking water from one side of the bucket". It's a cute analogy, but these people are nuts if they think corporations who have their taxes cut are going to suddenly start being more generous with their employees OR cutting prices to their customers. What is "ideal" and what is greedy corporate human nature are two different things. The fact is unless you earn over $250,000 per year, you will not have your taxes hiked. I can only guess the "target audience" of the Republicans this week is richer than that. Sarah lied about not taking money for the Bridge to Nowhere. She's lied about a lot of things. They inflated the population of the town up to ten thousand people. And I seriously doubt whether Mayor Palin received more votes than Biden did in any primary. Even if it should be true, it's immaterial. We know how obsessed they are with oil drilling with those "drill, baby, drill" chants. This is a woman who believes that Creationism should be taught in the schools, and goes to a church that says the War in Iraq is doing God's will. And her husband is a member of a group that wants Alaska to cecede from the Union. That's beyond the pale extremism. Apparently the facebook web site of the future husband of Briston is obscenity laden and states that he has no intention of marriage. Sarah's extreme stand on abortion wasn't mentioned, and neither was there any mention of being a gun freak. Of course I don't believe anyone at this convention is a "Maverick". The whole thing was choriographed and scripted by some master string puller, perhaps Karl Rove. This is a petty and vindictive woman possibly obsessive in getting her own way and abosing her givernment position to fire people. But you know, I bet Randi Rhodes has a lot of things to add to the list here.
In terms of my personal life I am undergoing a bit of a personal crisis now. There is a certain married couple who has a long track record of stabbing me in the back any time they get a chance, even if they have to "make" an oppertunity. You can go back to August 1980 for her and back before my suicide attempt for him, to see that the two of them have the heart of a betrayer. We can't have Christian Fellowship because they don't trust me, and I sure don't trust them. I'd like to quote Jesus words "If you don't forgive your brother, then God will not forgive you". This is assuming I am the one who is "The sinner" by smoking cigarettes. It's much more complicated than that and I don't care to get into it here. Let me just say that in the wife's case at least- - when we finally do get to heaven, I don't care if I ever see her again. Scripture says the standard by which you juge others will be applied to you. I'll leave it there.
