Three Times The Lady - Three Times the Wingnut

In defense of Sarah Palin, one of the sharpest tools in the shed is on the job. This would be none other than Captain Ed.

Believe it or not, none of the various critiques making their way through the series of tubes hold any water, according to Ed. They are all either wrong or dead wrong.

And more than that, Palin is perfect. And her government experience works to John and Sarah's advantage. See, Sarah's 20 months as Governor is a strength not a weakness because apparently it gives her 3 times the experience of Barrack Obama.
Before starting his bid, he had a grand total of less than 150 days in session in the Senate. Palin, on the other hand, has run her state for more than triple that time.
I'll wait for judgment on this pick. She may be a cross between Harriet Miers and Dan Quayle or may be a solid and competent pick. But Ol'Ed has the same info as I do but is ready to jump off the deep end or at least cancel his viagra prescription.

Update: Captain Ed apparent did not check with Karl Rove regarding the proper and appropriate levels of experience required to be named VP. Quoteth Kommrade Karl:
“With all due respect again to Governor Kaine, he’s been a governor for three years, he’s been able but undistinguished,” Rove said. “I don’t think people could really name a big, important thing that he’s done. He was mayor of the 105th largest city in America.

Again, with all due respect to Richmond, Virginia, it’s smaller than Chula Vista, California, Aurora, Colorado, Mesa or Gilbert, Arizona, North Las Vegas or Henderson, Nevada. It’s not a big town. So if you were going to pick Governor Kaine, it would be an intensely political choice where he said, you know what,”
I guess by using Kommrade Karl's logic Sarah Palin would be utterly unqualified and an intensively political choice. She was mayor of the 10105th largest city. It is smaller than..... well name some place. Virginia is a growing mid sized state while Alaska comes in at 49th and is bathed in oil wealth. So who is right Captain Ed or Kommrade Karl?

The diagnosis of the state of greater Wingnuttia is obvious. WE NEED BETTER WINGNUTS. The ones we got don't work properly.

FURTHER UPDATE: Apparently the cautious dead tree journalists are not going to wait for more info o this Lady. They are down with the desperation meme. On the surface it feels like they are on to something.

I really feel a one term pledge coming up by John.

He's Probably got the hang of it by now. So give'em another chance. And with the Supreme Court and the good Lord on his side, why not give it a try. Write in Bush. Someone gotta do the "Deciding" and make the "Decisions."
