    My point, exactly. He is the current sitting president. Like him or not. What ever this administration does, this includes all branches, affects us all. This is regardless of party affiliation.

      Be kind lads, I just think this woman has no substance, is a quitter and likes the limelight a bit too much and in other countries we do worry about who will lead the most powerfull nation.

        Sounds like people have been listening to too much "mainstream" media on these matters...

        How about thinking for yourselves and not letting ABC/NBC/CBS tell you what to think on these matters... unless you REALLY believe they are telling you the whole story and being objective about it!

          The problem is, she isn't running for president, nor has she ever. If she does throw in for 2012, she won't be a front runner by any stretch, and in all likelihood wouldn't survive the first few primaries.

          Your remarks have a note of paranoia to them, as if she were somehow a sure thing for being elected as Obama's successor. That's taking a WHOLE LOT for granted. Why worry so much about what isn't happening?

              Personally I could care less what people who are not US citizens think about our politics. So Mr Flying Scotsman tell me why it is a lot of people who live in Brittish Columbia end up comming down here to get health care?

                  Mitt Romney, for starters. He's a whole lot more savvy in politics, has a great track record of accomplishment as a governor, and is not nearly as polarizing a figure as Palin was.

                  Had McCain chosen him instead of Sarah as a running mate, you'd probably be saying 'President McCain' right now.

                  Picking Palin was an attempt at a 'hail Mary' type of desperation play to try and stem the loss of conservative support for a decidedly wishy-washy moderate candidate (McCain).

                  Even so, it almost worked. It was nowhere near a landslide as far as popular votes go, even with her on the ticket.

                  There are still at least 2 years for a strong Republican contender to emerge.

                      Yeah, people can be cruel sometimes.

                      I wonder how well a similar Obama website would go over?

                        You are kidding? Right? Our current president can't remember a speech if his life depends on it. Whats that saying about him?

                        I recieved this wrap up of all the things O has forgoten.

                        "Barack Obama, through his spokesman, claimed today that he was unawareof the tax day tea parties. Granted, the MSM has done a good job in suppressing any sort of coverage ahead of time (and the little coverage they did provide was derisive at best)… but how out of touch is the Community Organizer in Chief, really?
                        This much.
                        - He was unaware that he was attending a church (for 20 years) with a racist pastor who hates America .
                        - He was unaware that he was family friends with, and started his political career in the living room of, a domestic terrorist.
                        - He was unaware that he had invested in two speculative companies backed by some of his top donors right after taking office in 2005.
                        - He was unaware that his own aunt was living in the US illegally.
                        - He was unaware that his own brother lives on pennies a day in a hut in Kenya .
                        - He was unaware of the AIG bonuses that he and his administration approved and signed into a bill.
                        - He was unaware that the man he nominated to be his Secretary of Commerce was under investigation in a bribery scandal.
                        - He was unaware that the man he nominated to be his Secretary of Health and Human Services was a tax cheat.
                        - He was unaware that the man he nominated to be his Secretary of the Treasury was a tax cheat.
                        - He was unaware that the man he nominated to be the U.S. Trade Representative was a tax cheat.
                        - He was unaware that the woman he nominated to be his Chief Performance Officer was a tax cheat.
                        - He was unaware that the man he nominated to be #2 at the Environmental Protection Agency was under investigation for mismanaging $25 million in EPA grants.

                        Is it me, or does this guy have a really poor memory? Not the guy I want running my Country.

                        Get a grip and give up on beating up a person thats stepped down from her podium. Not to mention, Mrs Palin and her family were treated with total disrespect. Name me one thing that Obama can do better than Palin? Palins no brain surgeon but neither is O, Biden or that moron pelosi.

                          Steven, I was not debating the pros and cons of Obama, but the intelligence and fortitude of a certain lady.

                            So was I. If its ok to beat up on a person that doesn't actually impact our current situation, its ok to beat up on the person and administration that does.

                                What makes you so sure?

                                With all the bashing she and her family are receiving, even AFTER publicly withdrawing from politics, there's no way her detractors would allow her to get even the merest foothold in future political contests.

                                They'd put out a contract on her first.

                                She's become the most hated, attacked, and ridiculed woman on the planet--and for what?

                                All who hate her so much should really ask themselves that question honestly.

                                FOR WHAT?
