I wonder about that on this very forum. Some peoples post elude they are Pro-Gay Rights but then a few of you are hardcore Republicans. I dont understand how the two can co-exist with the party as it is.

I am less irritated by the pick and more by the coverage I heard on my local NBC affiliate this morning, which described her as "mother of four and Governor of Alaska." You'd never hear a male politician introduced to the country as "father of four and Governor of Alaska."

Colette Meiji · 08-29-2008, 11:12 AM

There are some Gay people who want the Civil Union Stuff, think that using the word Marriage isn't necessary and just inflammatory.

Others instead agree with Republicans on everything except Gay Marriage.

In fact its discriminatory to suggest Gay people cant be strict Conservatives, really.

Yeah there is a false image that Mother = Caring. They did it with Michelle Obama to.

1. Nothings funnier than a joke about a woman being raped! McCain: “Did you hear the one about the woman who is attacked on the street by a gorilla, beaten senseless, raped repeatedly and left to die? When she finally regains consciousness and tries to speak, her doctor leans over to hear her sigh contently and to feebly ask, “Where is that marvelous ape?” [1986]

2. Question: “How do we beat the bitch [Clinton]?” McCain: “That’s an excellent question.” [11/13/07]

3. Cindy McCain, John’s wife, made the statement that John’s hair was getting a little thin, to which he replied, “At least I don’t plaster on makeup like a trollop, you c*nt!” [1992]

4. McCain said women need more “training and education” instead of fair pay legislation. [4/23/08]

Good point, I suppose. I have not met a gay republican that I know of yet though. So I was not being discrimatory, just posting from what I've seen.

You are right however and I retract my comment. Thank you.

I've heard male politicians introduced that way. Well, without the "and Governor of Alaska" and something else there.

Sounds like she's just a cookie-cutter conservative.

A man who has a reputation, deserved or not, as a womanizer is appointing a young attractive woman as his VP running-mate? Hmmm....

I wonder if he thinks it will make him look more virile?

And I wonder if he'll make jokes about a strip-off between his wife and his running mate to a meeting of drunk bikers? (cheap shot, I know...but I'm feeling particularly bitchy this morning.)

How does he have a reputation as a womanizer? This is the first I have heard of this.

Facts?

nah I wouldn't vote based on Boring.

I like Biden for his stance on China.

I don't like the whole 5000 years in Washington thing.

But he is Boring. Boring, Boring, yes Scientist looking Av person I mean you, Boring.

Quote:

Palin is strongly pro-life and belongs to Feminists for Life.
She opposes same-sex marriage
She supported a democratic advisory vote from the public on whether there should be a constitutional amendment on the matter. Alaska was one of the first U.S. states to pass a constitutional ban on gay marriage, in 1998, along with Hawaii.

OK, she granted benefits. But she still would deny marital rights and is an avid member of an antiabortion group.

I guess we have different ideas about "far right."

But she's a woman though, that somehow makes her a "maverick".

jacqueline trudeau · 08-29-2008, 11:27 AM

As someone who thought Romney was in tha bag, I gotta give McCain big props for going WAY outside the conventional thinking.

Though more than anything, this smacks of Mondale-Ferraro desparation.

You didn't hear about how he dumped the wife who waited for him when he was a POW to hitch up with a younger heiress, then?

Quote:

During this period in Florida, McCain had extramarital affairs, and the McCains' marriage began to falter, for which he later would accept blame. ... In April 1979,[54] McCain met Cindy Lou Hensley, a teacher from Phoenix, Arizona, whose father had founded a large beer distributorship.[58] They began dating, and he urged his wife Carol to grant him a divorce, which she did in February 1980, with the uncontested divorce taking effect in April 1980.[19][54] The settlement included two houses, and financial support for her ongoing medical treatments due to her 1969 car accident; they would remain on good terms.[58] McCain and Hensley were married on May 17, 1980, with Senators William Cohen and Gary Hart attending as groomsmen.[57][58]

I didn't know the part about Gary Hart before. That shit's hilarious.

Richie Waves · 08-29-2008, 11:29 AM

How can you be Pro life AND pro death penalty? (bet shes Pro war too)

only in America

Colette Meiji · 08-29-2008, 11:30 AM

You know .. being anti-gay marriage in today's America isn't exactly "Conservative"

Plenty of Blue states are overwhelmingly anti-gay marriage.

Pathetic really since all the legislation to make Gay marriage legal was ratified in 1868.

FlipperPA Peregrine · 08-29-2008, 11:30 AM

Dude, she looks just like Marcy Darcy from Married...With Children!

I wonder what Stankleberry thinks of her cans.
