"Dinosaurs and humans walked the Earth at the same time." - So Said Sarah Palin to a Wasilla, Alaska, resident after a commencement address to home-schooled children. No wonder John McCain's camp has described Palin as "clueless." [LA Times via HuffPo]
This is not stupid, it's scary. This chick could be the prez.
Phew, thank the gods that I live over this side of the pond.
Folks, you really had better think about Bailing of the USA if that mad religious stepford wife gets elected along with old wheezey lungs McCain.
I wonder how she manages to breathe and stand upright at the same time… "world peace."
Imagine a religious extremist like Palin having access to nuclear weapons.
The entire planet should be supporting Obama just to prevent Palin from getting anywhere near the White House.
She probably thinks Jurassic Park was a documentary.
Then again, she's hanging out with McCain so much, I can see why she would think that.
Jude wins this round. :D
Unfortunately, there's a significant voter bloc that agrees w/her. Just look at that asinine Creationist Museum in Kentucky and the entire movement to outlaw teaching evolution. It's disgusting and embarassing, but true.
There's no doubt it is frightening that someone with her views and opinions, so wrong about so much, could be a 72-year-old heartbeat's away from the presidency. Don't women care about losing their right to choose?
The Republicans put forward tbis polarizing candidate in an effort to bring out the crackpot numbskull vote. But as far as I can tell, her presence as the candidate really will really only secure states like Montana and maybe Ohio.
I just think its so cynical and disrespectful of the American people to have had us sit through the endless primaries this year, and then spring this nutcase on everyone.
Karl Rove is alive and well.
BTW, as of today, Yahoo election guide is projecting that Obama will win and that's not even with Delaware, Maryland, DC, or Hawaii reporting.
I thought most fundamentalist christians do not believe in Dinosaurs because it goes against their believe that creation took place somewhere around 8000 years ago and Dinosaurs are considered much, much older than that. Oh well, they can cherry pick and manipulate that book they follow for their own selfish means anyway so I guess there were Dinosaurs in the Garden of Eden.
Well they probably get their view of prehistoric man from watching The Flintstones……these people will throw us back to the Dark Ages.
Fundamentalism (of the religious kind) is fucking up this world
Sadly enough I have an Aunt who believes this silly crap. She tried talk me out of declaring geology as my major in college. She really believes the world is only around 6,000 years old.
Well that answers Matt Damon's question…
