Where is Bert Parks?
Former Miss Alaska and Miss America contestant is John McCain’s choice for Vice President of The United States.
Can you spell p-a-n-d-e-r-i-n-g.
Strike up the band….Here comes Bert Parks.
Please share widely!
Reality-based commentary on politics.
This is lame.
Governor Palin was a contestant in a beauty contest.
the fact that she was a beauty contestant is irrelevant. It’s much like how some people refer to Obama as Barack Hussein Obama stressing the Hussein part, which is his middle name. The motives in both however are to belittle the candidate.
<
p>We can address her lack of experience, which nullifies McCain’s arguments, and not bring up the fact that she was a beauty contestant. It seems that the intent of bringing that up is to use the stereotype that beauty contestants are unintelligent.
She is a bimbo. Bet she said she was for ” world peace” when she was in the final questioning for Miss Alaska.
By they way, did you notice that they didn’t even say if Palin went to college? What Anchorage Junior College.
This is a joke on the country.
She is a graduate of the University of Idaho which of course isnt Harvard or Yale or some appropriatly Ivy League school for your tastes, so by all means insult away.
I am refreshed by your view about small towns also. Excelent stuff, do tell us more about how irrelevent small town experiences are.
On one level, yes, making fun of a contestant for Vice President for competing in a beauty contest is unworthy of the higher ideals to which we all strive. We all have different hobbies. If they’re harmless hobbies, they shouldn’t matter.

p>On the other hand, though, I’d expect most Americans would expect the beauty queen segment to be an unusual demographic from which to draw potential Presidents. Taking PJ’s invitation, we can reflect on how such competitions are run.
That said the Palin nomination is target rich:
Palin will probably become the new William E. Miller, Goldwater’s running mate and Stephanie Milller’s father.
At least Miller was a Congressman. Palin will be lucky if she even gets an American Express commercial. That’s all Miller got out of his failed run for VP in ’64.

p>Dementia has really set in to John McCain who today is officially in his 73 year and it is showing. Howie Carr wouldn’t want this old codger to even drive let alone become President.
that she made her husband privy to what should have been private communications between herself and the lt. governor and legislators. will hubby be sitting in the corner of the oval office, too?
Yeah…this is the kind of stuff that will certainly pull HRC’s supporters toward Obama. Smacks of Olbermann and Matthews, it does.
I am more Pro-Life than most but this Fundy running for 1’st Runner-up in the Miss US President’s Pageant also is demanding that all schools must teach Creationism.
That is pure nuts. How does Palin explain away finding human like remains and animal remains that are older than 5000 years old. All the Fundys believe that the earth was created about 5000 years ago in 7 days.
On the face of it that is bizzzzare! If a day is measured by a sunrise and a sunset but there was no sun in the beginning there was also no measureable day.
Why don’t these Fundys worry about something important. Could name dozens here: disease, war, famine and the like.
No, they worry about inanities.
And that is the person John McCain wants a heart beat away from the presidency.
John McCain is just like that honory old codger driving the old Lincoln Town Car down Route 3 in the middle lane at 40 miles an hour and tries to block anyone who tries to pass him. Think it is a sign of his shrinking penis and he feels threatened by anyone who might get ahead of him as a further threat to what is left of his manhood. Why else would McCain want to relive and relive and relive and relive and relive and relive and retell and retell and retell and retell hi POW story. Those were the best years of his manhood and the only way he can feel power again is by reliving them and retelling them.
Time for John McCain to head to the ranch. He is an old fool and would be a dottering old fool of a president of the US. We already had a retard in the Oval Office. Do we want to replace him with a Dementia patient. God, Save US !
