Once again Sarah Palin demonstrates she does not know what the VP actually does.

I have a third grader, and he can surely understand "the VP sits in the big chair up front, and bangs the hammer on the table when its time for people to talk."

If you do your research, it is Sarah Palin who got it right in the debate and Joe Biden who got it wrong. However, the media never seems to focus on Biden's errors.

Nobody seems concerned that Joe Biden says that a vote for Obama will mean certain international crisis....and he even said that Obama will most likely respond to it wrong. And yet the media is focused on how Sarah Palin defined to a 3rd grader what the VP does.

This election year has made an absolute mockery of journalism as we used to know it. It is no longer about facts but how we can pick apart every single solitary thing that Sarah Palin does or doesn't do. The mainstream media is a joke. Even Factcheck.org is a joke. It is owned by Annenburg who is a HUGE supporter of the democratic party.

Besides, we are supposed to be focused on the real issues....economy, taxes, war, etc. At least that's what all the liberals say when the McCain campaign finds some dirt on Obama. How come it doesn't work both ways?

Not at all.


The Annenberg Foundation was started by Walter and Leonore Annenberg.

Palin has had over four opportunities to answer this question correctly and has failed each time. At this point, it has to be more than stupidity, doesn't it? Maybe she thinks she'll be able to go all 'mavericky" as a VP. LOL

"Shouldn't we be more concerned about Joe Biden's comment of impending international crisis if Obama is elected? And shouldn't we be concerned that Joe Biden doesn't think that Obama will make the right decision in that crisis?"


I heard Biden say that those testing Obama would find he has a "spine of steel." When did he say he didn't think Obama would make the right decision?

Here is the transcript of what Biden said. Make note of the last sentence. Again, sounds like a vote for Obama is a vote for International Crisis...this coming NOT from McCain...but from Obama's own VP pick.

<<“Mark my words,” the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. “It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”

“I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate,” Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. “And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you - not financially to help him - we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it’s not gonna be apparent initially, it’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right.”>>
