Here’s what Barack Obama spokesperson Bill Burton had to say about John McCain’s decision to pick Sarah Palin as a running mate: “Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency. Governor Palin shares John McCain’s commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush’s failed economic policies — that’s not the change we need, it’s just more of the same.”

I want to offer a BIG thank you to Senator McCain for relieving me of my fears that he would win the Presidency and handing the election to Senator Obama on a silver platter.
Game over. Dems win.
McCain’s choice is so bad it’s delicious. It’s like the “Showgirls” of VP picks.

Just who the fuck is ‘Senator’ Obama to be talking about ANYONE’S experience?
He was a Senator for less than 183 days and has been running for President the whole time. Never sponsored or passed a bill, do I have to go on?
OK, maybe ‘gay rights’ is on the ‘to-do’ list but it ain’t gonna happen overnight. And having to accept socialism to get them is no value either. They used to execute gays in the old Soviet Union, and they still do in China.

Jeff54136, you’re an idiot. Of course you have no source for your fear-mongering lie that they execute gays in China because it does not happen.
