This could be the greatest nation in history, but you’re gonna let it be the worst. “Ooh, we’re afraid to go with you Sarah, we might get in trouble.” Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I’m not gonna take this. Over? Did you say “over”? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!

Germans? Pearl Harbor?

I am qualified to the Presidential job, unlike and regardless other incumbents now occupying the humm, occupying with disputable credentials, while I am qualified to design a strategy in Latin America because I once attended a Latin class by mistake and live in front of a catholic church and can hear them talking Latin, which is a dialect of Maid, from my kitchen.

OK  
If you were ever the Mayor of a small town , you may be smarter than Gov Palin  
If you were ever the Governor of the largest state in the Union, you may be smarter than Gov Palin  
If you were ever a Vice Presidential candidate , and / or beat Joe Biden in a debate, you may be smarter than Gov Palin.  
Everyone else can stop making fools of themselves by continuing to post …  
Enjoy your day…

The operative word being “continued” , so you continued, as did so many other fools .  
Now the question is, “Just how many clowns can you fit in a clown car?”

I guess this makes you a fan of Pres. Obama. You might have a point. He does seem smarter than Palin… But then again, there’s Bush and Reagan. Tough call.

Are you kidding us? As far as I can tell, _Warren G. bloody Harding_ was smarter than Ms Palin is. For starters, Harding was a very successful businessman before he went into politics.
