You bring it up constantly. Every time your candidate is caught saying something stupid, you write it up as some kind of childhood prank. >> If she looks stupid, or unprepared, or just out and out lies, that's >> not some petty schoolyard tactic you can dismiss. > > Some speak well under the gun, some don't.

Being a good speaker and a good people person is a big part of diplomacy. >> I don't think she deserves the respect that Biden does, or even >> McCain, for that matter.

Well, sadly it is, so here we go. -- Poise is about remaining calm under pressure. Good body language is even more important on a global stage, where the other folks in the discussion may not understand your cultural cues. >> and >> a closet that appears to be packed to capacity with skeletons. > > Yeah, bummer, this is a first for elected officials in North America, > and humans in general. Things could get interesting. -- If you say so. You're so quick to forgive the repubs for overstepping their power and position, and so eager to send out speculative crap about Obama being a Muslim. You don't get headaches from all that cognitive dissonance? >> She's >> an unqualified candidate added to the bill to give McCain more >> "folksy" cred, since it was clear from the last two elections that >> people aren't electing brains and experience, but simply someone >> they'd be comfortable having a beer with. > > What?

I don't understand the attitude and thoughts of much of the right, you are correct. I find it more palatable to believe that you have been mislead than to think that you are intentionally electing evil people to do evil things. Call it the benefit of a doubt. >> Are they going to consult on issues, or is she just going to put >> the cheese trays together for McCain's meetings? > > One could take that as sexism if one were inclined.

McCain >> doesn't remotely resemble the principled vet he once was, > > I thought he was just a POW? -- Once upon a time, McCain was against the Iraq war. He used to make sense, and talk with passion about the things he believed. It's clear that he's having trouble justifying the things he's been told to say, but he's saying them anyway, so his conscience doesn't mean a damn thing. > Gotta run, there is a Pabst and a deep-fried Snickers calling my > name, then I gotta mow the lawn, yeehaw, wish I had a tractor. -- Have fun. -- Michael --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "StrataList-OT" group.
