Sep. 1st, 2008 06:56 pmSarah Palin is John McCain's pick for the Vice President of the United States. Now, you can help him vet her for the job!
I will say that some of the points are dumb, in my opinion. But some... yeah. Some made me sputter. She has experience because "Alaska is the closest state to Russia"?! Really? And you didn't think that was reaching just a bit? Sheesh.
What I liked about the site: unlike Sarah herself, they did not, in all the ones I looked through, throw poor Bristol to the wolves. I am angry, and disappointed to the point of disgust, both with the people on my side who brought up the rumour that Sarah faked her pregnancy, and with Sarah herself, for deciding that in the face of the rumours, protecting her daughter's privacy took second place to clearing her own name. In fact, the only sympathy I have in this goes to poor Bristol, who fucking deserved better, both from her country's other citizens and from her own mother.
