thank you for the great example of double speak. the Republicans had how many years of control - six? but you want to blame the Dems for the last two years. Bush was the executive during the past 8 years, but you want to point to the legistlators as the source of the problem. you want to elevate Palin's experience in an executive positive to say she can govern, but reduce the experience of Obama and Biden as legislators to indicate they can govern.
which one is it? is 6 more or less important than 2? is the President more or less responsible for the economy than the legislature? is the experience in the legislature more or less important than the experience in an executive position when it comes to influencing our economy?
and i'll raise the stakes on the last question: is the experience in the legislature "of our nation" more or less important than the experience in an executive position "from a remote, sparsely populated state" when it comes to influencing our economy?

edit: in case i am accused of a smear, "from a remote, sparsely populated state" is a factual statement. she is from Alaska, Alaska is not contiguous with the US but is separated by 500 miles of Canadian territory, and it is 47th out of 50 in state population although it is 1st in size.
Only if you have a very short memory.
