Hello World:
I am still focusing on Sarah Palin at this point in this election series. Sarah accepted that position of running for Vice President prematurally. Many of her responses were not intelligent, and what happened was she really made women, as a whole, look bad in terms of not being knowledgeable about her nation and the world.
I do not mean to make fun here, but on the surface she is a pretty woman, but inside she looked stupid, and again, that was a bad impression in representing women. I believe Sarah is intelligent, it is just that she did not look like it then.
That stage was bad timing for her; and perhaps many of us have been there, where we can do better, and maybe even know how, but wind up messing things up. We mess up because we did not prepare right, do not have the confidence, or just for unkown or other reasons had a bad day. In terms of representing women as the Vice-President, there are other beautiful and knowledgeable women out there who could have done a much better job.
Another thing, in an interview question about a view on the "Bush Foreign Policy", the best answer would have been that you disagree with it. That is even if you did not fully understand his policy; which at that point you should have known, about, who you and McCain, potentially, was going to succeed in office.
Even if you do not understand the policy or the question, you can say, look, I have my plan of foreign policy and how I will implement it. Basically, you do not have to know everything, or have all the answers, but you do need to have a plan.
Again, you can not just show up on national television, and not know anything about those holding office before you, and also not have your own plan with confidence. Know one or the other. In other words, know either his past plan, or know your future plan, or know both to be able to give some kind of intelligent explanation. That interview along with other ones were a disaster for her.
Next thing Sarah, as a woman or any woman, who truly live for the causes of women, you should not let anyone take away a woman's right to choose. Now, I am talking about being for Women's rights and causes, NOT against, but for. Being pro-life is lame and hypocritical when it is okay to go to some other country and kill leaders and innocent people in invasions and wars.
Abortion is the stopping or termination of any life, not just babies. Abortion is not the main problem anyways, but it is the causes or things that lead a woman to having an abortion; or what would cause her to make a justifiable choice in that regard.
Too many conservatives focus, fast, and have all these prayers to stop abortion, when what they really should be focusing on is stopping the causes that lead to a decision to have an abortion. It is not the abortion doctors fault or the abortion clinics fault that are set either. You first need to stop all rapes from happening.
Also, how about stopping ALL incest. In addition, why do you not stop and prevent ALL women's lives who will be in danger if they were to give birth. Another thing, stop ALL of the inhuman and unmanageable sufferings caused by birth defects.
So, until you can stop ALL of these atrocities and sufferings that women go through, that cause them to make the decision to go have an abortion, then you and all other supposed pro-lifers have no righteous or just case. Stop ALL of those problems of women wrongfully getting pregnant, and then you will not have to worry about the large numbers of abortions.
