By comparison to what Bambi is doing to the country along with Pelosi, Reid, Bawney Fwank, Dodd, Obey - all these so intelligent Ivy grads who have run the country into the ground for years.    Compare the education that Sara Palin and the Tea Partiers (never Tea Baggers) and Joe the Plumber(sic - not Plummer) have with the education that Harry Truman had - and also his life experiences in running a business (they all have done that) and paid wages and have executive experience to offer.   The same with Ronald Reagan - management experience, working with different groups in the private sector, executive experience in government.  All of these have life experiences that show they know how to meet a budget and pay their taxes and meet a payroll and make a success of what they are doing.   The current administration and the congressional officials involved have none of these abilities and it shows.   Yes, Sara Palin and the Tea Partiers have more than enough education and intelligence that is needed to run this country.   More than that they have the common sense that is needed - and that is a commodity that is totally lacking in our present administration and congress.  

What happened to America is that the Ivy Leaguers have spent years treating it as a private playground without regard to analyzing the results
of what they have done.   The results speak for themselves.   African American families with 70% babies born out of wedlock, close to half the people not paying taxes, unemployment about 10% and rising, healthcare costs out of control, government entitlements out of control, whole groups of people who have found that they can live forever on government handouts without producing a single thing, all kinds of programs that do not work but keep getting more and more funding all the time.   One could go on and on with the list.  An education system that is in tatters and that is costing more and more every year and producing less and less education.  Unions that are almost exclusively centered in government employees that hold the taxpayers for ransom.  "Diversity Hell" where a group of college professors claim that their own students were guilty of rape and assault even after it has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that it never happened - and these professors do not even get penalized nor can they be sued for the damage they have done to their own students - and they try to rationalize it as geing something that "white men" do so the students should be penalized.   The "Melting Pot" that did us so well for over 2 centuries is now being destroyed in the name of "multiculturalism" that will play one group against another.   That is what your policies and your Bambi and Reid and Pelosi and Fwank and Obey and Dodd and Waters and Conyers and Hastings have done to this country.   All hail the Ivy Leaguers and their fantastic education.   At the rate they are going we will be lucky to make it to 250 years.  And our children and their children will be paying for this mess that the Democratic congresses have wrought for generations to come and get nothing for it.

So the answer is that yes, Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber and the Tea Partiers have all the education and intelligence needed to run this country.  More important they also have the common sense to know enough to stop digging when they have put it into a hole.  The current administration does not have a clue when it comes to that.  It might involve not playing golf or having Date Nights in NYC where you take AF-1 and all the Secret Service men and all the press involved and go to the Waldorf Astoria for the weekend.  Meanwhile the generals involved in trying to fight the war you are supporting cool their heels waiting for a chance to spend 20 minutes or 30 minutes of your time setting policy - and waiting and waiting and waiting.  Or you go to Copenhagen to push for Chicago to be an Olympic city and the whole administration is put on hold while you swan around over there.  Your Speaker of the House is meantime complaining that she only got a Gulfstream jet to fly friends to California with expensive liquors on board and she should have a 747.  After all she is entitled.   Another of your heroines is complaining when a general calls her ma'am - how dare he!   doesn't he know she is a SENATOR!!  I will take Sarah and Joe and the Tea Party over this crew any day and twice on Sundays.

Are these Americans who are calling the President of the United States Bambi, Zero and various other labels. Have they forgotten Bush and Cheney who corrupted the system to start their own private war for perhaps for their own personal gain. What has happened to America? Would these same people stand up in front of a TV camera and Call President Obama the names that they do hiding behind their email addresses. I guess that these must be the same people who feel that Sara Palin, Joe the Plummer and the Tea Baggers have all the education and intelligence that is needed to run this country.

Most of its incendiary quotes come not from the general, but his aides --- one of whom resigned Tuesday. McChrystal himself apologized for the article; he was reported to be returning to Washington for a White House meeting on Afghanistan Wednesday.  McChrystal's enemies were quick to portray him as out of line and likely to be scolded, if not fired, by Obama. My colleague Jonathan Capehart said McChrystal should be ready to resign. But the tensions McChrystal disclosed were not news to anyone who has been following the Afghanistan mission in recent months; I first wrote about them more than a month ago.  Nor is McChrystal the only participant in the feuding who has gone public with his argument. A scathing memo by Eikenberry describing Karzai as an unreliable partner was leaked to the press last fall. At a White House press briefing during Karzai's visit to Washington last month, the ambassador pointedly refused to endorse the Afghan leader he must work with.  It's almost as if President Obama has been voting "Present" on his very own war strategy.  Sorry, Barry, but no matter how unforgivingly indiscreet and disrespectful your top general might have been, the buck still stops with you.

What we have is Bambi naming the man he dissed while he was a senator and who he went out of his way not to meet with as well as the other general he ignored for months and then spent 20 minutes meeting. Then we hear Bambi telling us he consulted with the generals and laid out all the war plans. I am sure you just ate that right up. Bambi the Super Duper General, the man we should all bow down and worship. Makes me sick to hear him blather on about things that we know he is lying through his teeth about.  euwe wrote:    Travis <baconlard@gmail.com> Jun 23 07:54PM -0500 ^  The used the process known as RE/AD.

I am not the one who voted for a fool who never did anything because he spoke nice. You are the one who inflicted that mangy dog on this country and we will be paying the price for generations. What are his viewpoints? I know what mine are but what are his. And when it comes to informing and conveying facts from sources, the MSM is not very good at that at all. Looke how they have to keep adjusting the figures. Remember how the jobless rate was going down - and then they adjusted it and it was really going up. Remember how the HCR was going to be revenue neutral according to the admin and the MSM and now we find it will cost trillions that we don't have. Now even the acolytes are deserting this admin in droves and you are still out there paddling away like a good little sheep going Baa Baa black sheep, have you any oil.

How am I insulated from contemporary news. I READ news. I don't listen to news. I am hard of hearing so listening to news is not something that I choose to do. Instead I read the words written by all kinds of people and from that make up my mind. I don't have a leader. I don't need a leader. That is why people like Bambi make no sense to me. I read what he says and I can see right away that he is full of s*it.

Ever since the former Vice President of the U.S. split from wife Tipper after 40 years, scandalous allegations have been flying.  The latest? The National Enquirer<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2010/06/an-inconvenient-rumor-al-gore-accused-of-sexual-assault-on-massa/#> says Gore was accused of sexually attacking a masseuse in Portland, Oregon, back in 2006, and is named in a police report.  The bombshell story<http://www.nationalenquirer.com/al_gore_sex_scandal_police_confidential_report/celebrity/68876> will include the secret police documents, a photo<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2010/06/an-inconvenient-rumor-al-gore-accused-of-sexual-assault-on-massa/#> of the woman making the stunning charges and will reveal the details, the tabloid says.  Alleged proof of the encounter? Pants she saved as evidence.  True or not, this report comes just weeks after Al and Tipper Gore split<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2010/06/al-gore-wife-tipper-to-divorce/>. The*Enquirer* says she suspected he was involved with "a gorgeous massage<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2010/06/an-inconvenient-rumor-al-gore-accused-of-sexual-assault-on-massa/#> therapist."  Well, at least she's pretty, supposedly.  [image: Al Gore Sexual Assault]<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/gallery/al-gore-sexual-assault/>  *AL GORE SEX ATTACK!!!* *A month ago, if you told us we would report two stories about the former V.P. getting his freak on, we probably wouldn't have believed you*.  He's also accused of an affair with Laurie David<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2010/06/al-gore-laurie-david-affair-alleged/>, ex-wife of *Seinfeld* and *Curb Your Enthusiasm* creator Larry David, and a producer on *An Inconvenient Truth*.  The celebrity gossip<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2010/06/an-inconvenient-rumor-al-gore-accused-of-sexual-assault-on-massa/#> tabloid says the 62-year-old Gore was in Portland at the time of the alleged incident - October 24, 2006 - and has the $540 massage bill.  No criminal charges were filed against Gore, but Portland police prepared a document marked "Confidential Special Report" - containing explosive allegations.  A woman, whose name is being withheld by the publication, reportedly lodged a complaint "unwanted sexual contact" by Al Gore "at a local upscale hotel."  We would say this is pure nonsense, but it's not exactly loose, vague wording of the *OK!* or *Star* variety. Besides, after Rielle Hunter<http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/gallery/rielle-hunter/>, nothing is surprising.
