I will, however, express my extreme displeasure in Governor Palin's warmongering and also say that I feel that she's an extremely dangerous choice for VP. That is all.

That is all.

Bay of Pigs with Lipstick?

So, who'd like to tell me to ignore psychopathic Christofascist Ayatollah Sarah "Talibunny" Palin now?

"What did you want us to do? Wave our penknives in the air and wipe the bloody snot off our noses?" he asked, adding: "When an aggressor comes into your territory, you need to punch him in the face - an aggressor needs to punished."

What that signals over the next year for the US remains to be seen. Palin's sound bite is easy to get hysterical about, but Russia is going to be an issue.

(1) his position is identical to hers, or
(2) he wants to offer them NATO membership without offering them the military umbrella that NATO has always offered.

Neither option produces a win for us as Obama supporters.

Oh really? I'm sure that will a surprise to tens of thousands of oil company executives, geologists, and rig hands, nuclear power plant engineers, hydro dam operators, solar and wind power developers, et al.

I think McSame is the real cunt here...

Love the peaches and pecans though.

These people are running on a platform of war and economic collapse. The fact that we're arguing about what "lipstick on a pig" means while this is happening shows just how complete the bubble of reality-denial has become for most Americans.

The Bush administration has spent us into bankruptcy by cutting taxes while starting two wars, and the McCain plan is to double-down. There is exactly zero chance that this will end well.

She's got so much spunk. I just love her. She's one of us! I'm still laughing about how she sold that airplane on eBay. I guess she showed those fatcats!

It will be great to have her in the White House! I'm praying that God will look after her son in the War on Terror....

i agree with dan, when he says, "Russia is a piece-of-shit, crypto-fascist oil state run by a bunch of thugs " but other than the low oild production how is that different from our own blackwater-haliburton runned goverment?

The US is seeking a new cold war with Russia. But since we can't admit it, we blame Russia anytime they say anything mildly provocative.

Hi! We're Harry Truman and Bill Clinton. We already did this when we let in Norway in 1949, Turkey in 1952 (ok, it was the Soviet Union, not Russia...same thing then) and Poland in 1999. But we weren't Republicans so that was OK.

I mean, hilarious? Really something for the end of year "Regrets" issue?

So maybe we need a www.hassarahpalinrestartedthecoldwaryet.com

Duck and cover, motherfuckers!

"Ukraine and Georgia have also been developing their ties with NATO. Their leaders have declared their readiness to advance a NATO Membership Action Plan, MAP, to prepare for the rights and obligations of membership. They are working to consolidate democratic reforms and to undertake new responsibilities in their relationship with the Alliance. I welcome the desire and actions of these countries to seek closer ties with NATO and hope that NATO responds favorably to their request, consistent with its criteria for membership."

(Oh, and if this wasn't about an actual conviction you have, but just you rummaging about for some issue with which to beat on McCain/Palin, you're going to run into the little problem that Obama has taken the same stand, as other commenters have pointed out.)

1) She would allow Georgia into NATO, and we would go to their aid if Russia attacked again.
2) We would back Isreal if they felt they needed to attack Iran.
3) We would attack Pakistan if we felt it was necessary to protect ourselves from Islamic extremeists.

Sarah Palin, we who are about to die salute you.

Chavez promises a friendly fly by to Castro. Oh, and for extra bonus points, recalls his ambassador to the US and expels the "Yankee ambassador" from Venezuela.

In answer to your question, Dan, no apparently we can't all just get along.

Er wait that's not funny

Dumb cunt or not.

Talibunny! Talibunny! Rah-rah-rah!
