*Sarcasm Warning*

You working moms should be at home taking care of your children, folding underwear and scrubbing toilets. Because we all know that women are too stupid to do anything else.

*End Sarcasm Warning*

I can't stand the sexism in this campaign. So what if Palin has children and she works outside the home? Hundreds, thousands of American women do that every single day. My goodness, the way some people are carrying on about it, you'd think it's 1408 instead of 2008!

Gooberpug,

This is very true partially. The "Other" women speaking out on this issue are the ones that are noted as " The Catty Bi-tchs". You know the ones you work with that back stab you every chance you get. The other selected women are the ones that are so backward in life as if they were "Mrs Clever".

Then the remaining are... MEN! So many of them, so competitive with women. They know, we can, Multi-task way better than they could ever imagine. These MEN are sooo insecure of themselves, so belittling a woman that is successful makes them feel like a real big boy!

She is a wonderful additional to the Ticket, as I feel she will top it over for the Republicans. Finally someone is thinking way outside the box!

You are correct when voting for the right person with experience under the belt. McCain as you know is extremely knowledgeable of war and our Military. I feel quite confident for my son and others that he will do the right thing for them. I also feel he has made a wonderful choice to put Palin in for VP not because she is a woman, but the experience on many issues you just mentioned. Our sons and daughters have made a choice to join the Military knowing there is a risk prior to signature. The fear is always on our minds, but I keep faith and no wholeheartedly that McCain will keep them top priority. If anyone that is running for President and has had first hand experience on so many levels, which include the good and bad knows how to deal with the battlegrounds. Way too many Questions regarding Barack Hussein Obama and all his dark affiliations. Palin I feel is a wonderful example of the Working Mom/Woman in the corporate world. Much more everything with a pretty flawless record than Barack Hussein Obama, who's integrity is totally questionable.

How is your son doing? From previous blogs, I know you are a very strong supporter of McCain and I commend you for making a choice. I have not; McCain and Senator Obama have not moved me into believing one of them can be president. Unfortunately I think McCain pick Palin for anterior motives and had nothing to do with putting the country first. In truth I have issues and concerns with both men. But reading both candidates records both have some fallibilities that range from personal to business so both have flawed at one time or another in their integrity. Looking at McCain voting record for women issues is disappointing and he is pro-life. Senator Obama voting record is just as disappointing because at times he wouldn’t vote one way or another but he is pro-choice but still not enough to earn my vote.
I give credit to all women that have taken a job that was predominantly male while being a wife and mom. But believe women should not be handed a position or job because they are a woman in an effort to appease constituents. Women must earned a position or job on merits and her being a female should not be front and center in conservation; as Senator Obama being Black or biracial should not be front and center the majority of the time. And the media highlights both constantly. Maybe I will flip a coin or make a choice not to vote for the very first time.

Although I still disagree with you totally, I respect you very intelligent response on the issue.

In 2000 they were called Soccer Mom's, 2004 security Mom's, 2008 Hockey Mom's why? Because John McCain need's to win two of these states (Michigan, Pennsylvania or Ohio)to come close to winning the Electorial college vote. He is loosing in all three. This is the most popular sport in this part of the country and the most white. In an effort to get apathetic voters back to the poles the RNC has chosen this strategy of syphoning off the white female vote. Instead of talking about issues the RNC has chosen to find a matriarch figure "Hockey mom" to try to attract this important demographic.

Note: Until this year Blacks have voted for White Presidential candidates in the general election almost 100% of the time.

I also concur neither Presidential candidate has given me a reason to vote for them and I am tired of picking the lesser of two evil's!

My son is doing quite well. He has chose to be in the Navy for many reasons, and is FC2 on one of the USS Comstocks. One of the reasons is to be support our Country, to travel abroad, learn and see new cultures instead of looking in a Magazine and wishing he would have left his own backyard. He is extremely strategic as a child and made this decision at a very early age. It has made him becomea a man that I wish all men were like. As you know the Military is not always a piece of cake, but it's what most of them love to do and that is to Serve our Country.

As so many people see.. Military as a bad thing especially at war time, what makes it any different than a Police Officer, Fireman, Convience Store Clerk.. etc.. When we choose a position in life we all take a risk. Even driving to town to go to work can cause death. My son and like many others have the courage and love to make a difference for us all.

I totally agree with derunner as I feel she has proven herself beyond any doubt that she is more than ample to sustain herself in the Whitehouse. Obama has really brought absolutely nothing to the table except many questions of his Integrity and Character.

To me.. Of couse noone is perfect for sure and not everyone is going to like you no matter where you work, but I would put my sons life with a man who has been there and done that. He knows the game and the wins of Military. Is he perfect? No, but noone elese is. Barack Hussein Obama for me has NOTHING, but questions about his whole life and the people he has associated with for t

cont..

for the last 20 plus years. You take down all the good and the bad of both and you decide who is more qualified to run our Country. Sarah has more experience and her Integrity is where I see is a genuine American true grit. Barack Hussein Obama bring nothing to the table exception quesiton regarding his life with no experience to rely on. Just because she is a woman doesn't mean she can't do the job, in fact I think she will make a hell of a Vice President and she will grow under McCains wings for President down the road. She doesn't need Opra, Hillary or anyone elese to make her way. Dems are just disgracful toward women as we have already seen it unfold on Hillary, which was basically treating her like whale crap at the bottom of the sea. It's sad, but the real change is exactly what McCain did and he will win.

well said ! you and your son are,indeed, patriots ! Keep up the fight! For if we don't, America will truly lose!

gnowlin ,
So true! They beat Hilariy down and forced her (with a fake smile ) to succumb to the far left liberal will. They wanted Obama ,at all cost , and they were willing to assassinate Hillary political run with furies vengeance , if necessary, to secure the nomination for Barrack Hussein Osama...urhhhhh...... Obama.

It is very unfortunate, because when Hilary enter the race (although I did not support her but still respected her) she was a kick A55 lady and she was in your face! She was intelligent and was a good debater who knew the issues ,although on most i disagreed!

The Democratic party ,however, had their own agenda. They made her submit. They beat her down ,unmercifully, until she finally gave up
on Hilary ,maybe , finally night on the political national stage , The Dems turned this once powerful lady into a weak orange pumpkin,making her give a contrived and forced speech in her support for Barrack Obama

Come on people, this lady was made a disgraced and her dignity taken for ever ,due to the new democratic political socialist party .]

This was one of the most disappointing things I have ever seen in my 30 years of politics.

Country First !!!!!!!!!!!!
