		<description>Pam,

As new stories hit the press about Palin the choice becomes even more questionable. YMMV of course, but I think it&#039;s safe to say that there&#039;s ample cause to question the choice to have her on the ticket.</description>

		<description>Hee, well Politico is chock full of idiot comments, but there are some amusing ones.  The following tickled me:

HOW TO START EACH DAY WITH A POSITIVE OUTLOOK 1. Open a new file in your computer. 2. Name it &#039;McCain-Palin&#039;. 3. Send it to the Recycle Bin. 4. Empty the Recycle Bin. 5. Your PC will ask you:&#039;Do you really want to get rid of &#039;McCain-Palin?&#039; 6. Firmly Click &#039;Yes.&#039; 7. Feel better?

:D</description>

		<description>We can talk about all of that and the phenomenon of imaginary-minority-status all in one place.  No one here is unaware of those points you are raising.  This blog deals with specifics of race and gender in a unique way that can&#039;t be found anywhere else.  I think this is a very appropriate place to discuss this issue and I think it&#039;s an interesting one.  I&#039;m done responding to your condescending ass now.  Bye.</description>

		<description>@davka-

You have your focus, yet the US government is about to take over Fredie and Fanny mae to the tune of several Trillion (not billion- Trillion).

Yet our nation is trillions in debt, is borrowing money to pay the interest today.

If we were in any way arguably not to the point of no return, unable to repay our debts, this should nail it.

A mega depression is in sight.

Rather than talk of these serious issues that will affect survival of us all, or the crimes and corruption inside the financial institutions including Fredie and Fanie, our most important banks, celebrity type trash talk is spun one way and another.

If the USA, and world economy, collapse due to the corruption in the USA, you may get very interested in this very fast.

It very well may turn out much more important who caused, profited, and is being protected by sidelining the serious issues in the presidential election than any other aspect of the election.</description>

		<description>Actually I think it&#039;s interesting how people try to spin anything into minority status to promote their own causes.  I think its interesting and worthy of discussing and it happened here and people are responding, so get over it or join the discussion.

The Palins are white and need to be addressed as so instead of trying to steal Obama&#039;s thunder with imaginary minority status.

I think this topic has a lot to do with why she is a shitty candidate and it needs to be addressed since there are people who are obviously buying into it (see above.)</description>

		<description>@davka-

&quot;render the entire place into a wasteland&quot;

The solution to this is clear.

Utah Carl, early tv personality in Houston Texas, began each program with-

&quot;Im just the wonder of the wasteland,
ridin along thinking of days gone by.
And when Im feelin kinda lonesome,
I sing my cowboy lulaby.&quot;

The tv camera focused on one boot with &quot; Utah&quot; on the side, then the other boot tapping time with &quot;Carl&quot; on it.

What does an early tv singing cowboy with the unlikely name of Utah Carl have to do with Alaska and the presidential race?

Absolutely nothing!

Just as this topic and debate has nothing to do with it.

It is noteworthy that a singer/guitar player was referred to on the TV show as &quot;old blind-o&quot;, a terrible insult to the disabled.

Also the guitar player &quot;old blind-o&quot; was shown tripping over the huge TV cables of that era each time, just as the boots were shown at the start of each program.

All of that seemed senseless at the time, as does this now.</description>

		<description>And please quit with the arctic hubris already.  I just spent month in Alaska and your lifestyles aren&#039;t so different from ours.  She isn&#039;t trying to keep Polar Bears off protective lists because she wants to hunt them and cover her children in their fur.  She wants to let big oil in to pillage the place.   How can any Alaskan claim to be so proud of their land and the diversity of the wildlife therein while supporting big businesses that want to render the entire place into a wasteland?  It makes no sense to me.</description>

		<description>It says on Wikipedia that his mother is 1/4 Yup&#039;ik.  If he can claim to be a minority and a person of color than I can too because I am 1/4 roma.  GIVE ME A BREAK!  He is white.  Whiter than the snow capped peaks of Denali.

I cannot believe people are really calling in his heritage as a sign of diversity.  It&#039;s like when a sexist pig says, &quot;I don&#039;t hate women!  I looooove women.&quot;  Obviously, people are not getting at all.</description>
