* "Africa is a COUNTRY" Sarah..

Seems "Africa is a COUNTRY" Barbie Doll Sarah Palin is making good use of the world atlas I sent her. She recently made her first speech outside North America...in Hong Kong! (Sarah - Hong Kong is a CITY in the COUNTRY of China). While there she criticized the current administration for spending too much money and intervening too much in the recent financial crisis. "Recent?" Perhaps she's been spending too much time under the rock with Sean Hannity? 


But kidding aside, I LIKE Sarah. She's a lovely woman with a perky personality. I would enjoy sharing a beer and a "girls night out" movie with her.... But - she lost me soon after she was nominated. Seems her son was soon to be deployed to Iraq when she was asked her views on the Iraq war. Her answer was sad. Even though she was a MOTHER with a son about ready to go to a WAR, she nevertheless remarked that "she had no time to look into it." WHAT? Here I was, an American "no-body" who had spent HOURS and HOURS in research libraries and Internet sources, looking into the issues involving Iraq.. and yet here was someone, the Republican Vice Presidential  nominee, who seemed to have absolutely NO interest? 


Perhaps if more people had questioned Bush's unproven "justifications" for a war in Iraq, we wouldn't have gone there in the first place! Questioning is PATRIOTIC. It's called loving your country MORE than a political party. It's called attempting to PROTECT our country from lies and liars... from ALL political parties, whether they be "righties" or "lefties" or anything in between.
