Where Is Sarah?
Tomorrow on ABC’s This Week the guest is Barack Obama. On Meet The Press, The Guest is Joe Biden. On Face The Nation, the Guest is John McCain. On Fox News Sunday, it is David Axelrod and Rick Davis. The question I ask is where is Sarah Palin? I don’t give a fuck about her kids or her appearing on Oprah. I want to know does the possible next V.P./President have any knowledge or opinions about the world. Let’s take Pakistan to start. Does she believe the United States should keep sending that country military aid? Should the money come with stipulations? If so what are those stipulations? If something happened to McCain and she where president and she had actionable intelligence on terrorists in Pakistan’s, would she violate that countries territorial sovereignty and strike the terrorists? Those are just questions about 1 country. There are tons of other places around the world which have issues that I liked to know her opinion on: Iraq, Dafur, Afghanistan, Israel & Palestine, China et al. Obama may not be the most experienced candidate running for president, but I have heard him discuss all these issues and more on Meet The Press, Fox News Sunday, Face The Nation, This Week, and hell he even just did The O'reilly factor. People can mock him for opposing the Iraq War as a State Senator/ Law Professor at the University of Chicago where he could not really influence anything, but at least his opinion and rational for it are on record. McCain and Biden have answered questions about their views on major issues literally all my life. Where is Sarah on these issues? Part of the problem is the fucking media playing into Palin/McCain’s hands by focusing on sensational stories like her daughter’s pregnancy. However, in the next 8 weeks she can’t hide behind her anger at the media’s focus on her personal life. She is going to have to appear on the aforementioned news shows and answer the same questions that Obama, McCain, and Biden have been answering. If she does not, anyone who votes for her as V.P. is being irresponsible.
