Have contempt if you want. Have contempt for the people of America she symbolizes.
Don't worry. I will always have contempt for people who know they are unqualified for a position they seek and continue to seek it to the endangerment of all.
I will always have contempt for middle managers who don't know anything about the business they are part of but seek to run said business.
Meanwhile you still haven't come up with anything more concrete than that you don't like the way she expresses herself. If you don't "like" her say so. But let's skip the part about how you are so worried about the future of this country wrapping yourself in the flag skeered that the world would end if she somehow found herself sitting in the Oval Office. The country doesn't run like that, and executives don't manage like that.
This is the point, BT. She doesn't "express" a god damned thing, my friend. She utters not one coherent, relevant statement in her response. Only those who have an agenda hear anything other than babbling to fill the air.
And your reliance on style, she looks at her notes, she is trying too hard so her response isn't fluid, is superficial at best.
BTW Obama doesn't do so well when he is thrown off script. The lipstick and the pig remarks were so garbled, so out of character with his normal speech that i started thinking he had more in common with W than you arnd your ilk would ever be comfortable with. The guy damn near stutters.
I am so tired of this total horseshit meme of Obama needing a teleprompter or responds to questions with pat answers. It's a lie that you are continuing to perpetuate.
It is true that the other night I noticed some of the uhuhuhuh that he uses before starting his thought but that is not the same as choking and not expressing anything of import following the pause.
And again, the hypocrisy of being ok with Palin referring to notes in a one-on-one then epically failing to sound coherent then in the next breath condemning Obama for using a teleprompter during a speech (like every other goddamned president has done for the last 200 and some odd years in some form or another) and having uhs as part of his speech pattern after praising Bush as a great communicator for 8 years is totally beneath contempt.
Harry Truman wrote to his wife that once he learned what everyone did , the job of President shouldn't be any harder than running Jackson County.
I tend to think that executive skills are scalable. And people with a solid core have a tendency to rise to the challenge.
So no I wouldn't be worried if Palin was elected VP , nor would i be worried if she ascended to the Presidency.
I bet Harry Truman would be able to expound on the bailout right now without note cards were he to be re-animated right at this very second. Trust me, this is not personal with Palin. I suspect that I would totally choke at times with certain questions just like she did but I'm not the damned governor of a state who is the GOP pick for VP
right this second.
And trust me, it took me a minute to come up with another SCOTUS case other than Roe V Wade. I finally came up with Brown V Board of Education but again, I'm not running for VP right this second.
