For those who don’t think that Palin “sold out” just by accepting the vice presidential nomination, please read the transcript of her acceptance speech. After talking about challenging the status quo, serving the common good, seeking office and serving for the right reasons, and governing with integrity, goodwill, and clear convictions, Palin made this incredible statement:
“Now, no leader in America has shown these qualities so clearly or presents so clear a threat to business as usual in Washington as Sen. John S. McCain.”
And McCain is not the only thing she is deceived about. Palin mentioned her son deploying to Iraq on Sept. 11 of this year “in the service of his country.” I fail to see how killing Iraqis and destroying their property in an immoral and unjust war is serving the country.
Yes, Palin is far better than McCain, Obama, Biden, and the rest (and far better looking than Hillary), but how hard is it to be better than those clowns? On the burning issue of the day–the war–she is no different than the rest.
