Change For A Nickel

I’ve been intently watching what has been going on with the phenomenon that is Sarah Palin.  She is, without a doubt a superstar in the Republican party.  She has done what McCain, Romney, or Guiliani could never do.  She has appealed to the religious right.  Good for them!  Bad for the rest of us.  It is my opinion as a rational human being that this is a dangerous woman!  She is against abortions for women in cases of rape or incest.  She wanted to ban books when she was the mayor of Wasilla.  She has used the office of the governor in a vindictive and retributive manner toward her former brother-in-law to try and have him fired.  But those are the minor highlights.  No, this woman is dangerous because I do not believe she clearly separates church and state.  Believe me when I say I could care less about her religious affiliations.  But she has given some insight to this when addressing her church and stating, “Our national leaders are sending U.S. soldiers on a task that is from God.”

But the icing on this shit cake was last night during an interview with Charles Gibson when she basically said that if Georgia and Ukraine were NATO countries the US would have to go to war with Russia if they were invaded.  Granted, that as a member of a NATO aligned country you do get a few perks but what she fails to understand is the history of the current conflict between the regions in Georgia that want to break away, our role in the support of Georgia with regard to those regions and let’s not forget Mama Bear Russia and her own motivations!  War with Russia?!  Has this bitch lost her updew?!?  Her bellicose language regarding such a sensitive subject has sealed the coffin regarding her judgment.  It is poor and would get us all killed.  This woman can not become the VP to Grandpa McCain.  The man has one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peal!
