The Palin Plague

I have been out of the closet for some time now. If you know me, you know I am very much openly republican. Come on, don't hate the player. A former libertarian who grew up in a very democratic, liberal, Christian environment, I once thought to think for myself. To take the wheel and learn what I could so as to make my own decisions about what I felt was right and wrong. The day came when I figured out there really is a grey area. Hence, the day I registered libertarian. I went to a couple get togethers, attended speeches by party members in California, and found this one thing out... Libertarians are democrats with dicks. Back in '71 the founders of the party were sitting there thinking, "You know what? These pansy ass bitches suck. Plus I want the Reds to like us more. Let's just meet in the middle." Personally I don't hate or judge people based on their beliefs. I just think they're possibly mentally retarded. I won't stand behind a party who lets immigrants cross borders. I won't stand by while the marketplace is looked over like an infant left laying on a bed, unattended. Just because it has a cool name like laissez-faire doesn't mean it can watch itself. I digress. I saw the light, and checked that nice little box reading "Republican." And now I'm seeing I can't be one-hundred percent happy anywhere. I'm much too old a soul to agree with people these days. I do stand by the republican party for what they believe, but sometimes those certain people come along that just make you ashamed of where you are. (43rd president, anyone?) That person now, and quite possibly for the next 4 years will be Sarah Palin for me.

Sarah Palin is a plague on the United States. She is not Suzie Homemaker with a brain in her oven. The woman is basically play-doh. A tool for the monsters of D.C. to mold. And that is most dangerous. I laughed when I heard Palin was considering preparing for the 2012 presidency. 'Really? She's the reason McCain went down.' was all I thought. And then Alex brought up a good point. She can be groomed so nice by the power wolves, and everything can change. They have 4 years to primp her, school her, teach her to skip the bad jokes and unbearable giggle and god-awful nicknames. She can be a champ in the making. It's terrifying.

Someone asked me, "Why? Because of the daughter thing?" No. "Because of the husband DUI thing?" Definitely not. And people should be ashamed those issues were ever made public. It has nothing to do with how she could handle major office. What does concern me about Sarah Palin is the fact she is not so much an anti-Semite, but that she won't stand up and say something if wrong if she believes so. I'm referencing to when her pastor made anti-Semitic comments during a sermon saying "...Jewish victims of terrorism were responsible for their own death. Had they converted to Christianity, they would have been saved."

As far as foreign policy may go, I'm sure she's racked up far more than 12 hours since her famous "I can see Russia!" ordeal. But not much time.

"As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where– where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border." --Sarah Palin, explaining why Alaska's proximity to Russia gives her foreign policy experience, interview with CBS's Katie Couric, Sept, 2008

Ha!

Sarah Palin is also a non-intellect. Not one for self improvement or any sort of contemplation. She would rather go by her gut, but lacks the skill and mental capacity to attempt to do so. Quite frankly, she lacks the mental capacity to do or say anything worth a dime. Fun fact of the day in case you didn't know. Mrs. Palin think it to be inconvenient and wasteful to spend money on fruit-fly research. Fruit flies - the invaluable subject in researching and curing hundreds of diseases due to their genetics. She also thinks Americans shouldn't let any funding go to IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.) She must have some sort of mental handicap. My least favorite person is anti-research, obviously, but more important, she wants creationism to be taught in school rather than evolution. Creationism is religion. She wants my future kids, and your children of today to be taught that we all came from God and nothing else. What. The. Shit. Sarah Shmarah also seriously cut funding for teenage mothers, one house in particular that homes the underprivileged women and children - by more than 20%. Please, let's take into account Sarah Palin is against abortion, and her own 17 year-old unwed daughter gave birth. Huh.. This woman just screams confusion. And with her standing around ranting about Russia, thinking unwed teen moms don't deserve anything (unless Momz is governor) my face will fill with rose as the thought of being apart of this party.

I guess MGMT said it best. "Let's move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars." Because if Sarah Palin is groomed properly like Alex says she will be, we have no hope. The future of America is doomed. But for now, my spaghetti is done. I'm hungry and I'm alright.
