OBAMA'S GIVING US HIS IDEA OF "CHANGE" QUICKLY: POLITICAL CANNISTER (LINK)

August 29th 2008 21:03
By Steven Barrett

“We should all be proud of Governor Sarah Palin's historic nomination, and I congratulate her and Senator McCain. While their policies would take America in the wrong direction, Governor Palin will add an important new voice to the debate.”
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-NY

Of course that's not a political endorsement, and nobody, includes Gov. Palin would reasonably expect Hillary to endorse her ideas, but it sure begs a mountain's worth of questions as to why the Prophet of Change's acolytes, (or even) couldn't have been more respectful given at least the historical significance of Palin's pick by John McCain.


The Clintons left Denver with class.

What a sorry contrast to the chest-thumping arrogance displayed by an ungrateful party.

Barack Obama Campaign Spokesman Bill Burton responds to John McCain's choice of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate:

"Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency. Governor Palin shares John McCain's commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush's failed economic policies -- that's not the change we need, it's just more of the same."

Thus reported the ever balanced "Huffington Post."
Really Long Link

The Martha's VIneyard Jaws of the liberal-slanted media will no doubt be latching on to Palin's basketball nickname, "Sara Barracuda" earned for her aggressiveness on the court. Wait'll they see what this barracuda of a self-styled "hockey-mom" has in store for them. Unlike the Democrats, however, she'll be taking cleaner bites.


Just by looking at the first salvos shot by Obama's Burton, it looks like the only "change" from the politics of old seems to be that the Democrats are loading their cannons with double cannister rounds. Some "change."
