Judgment: John McCain Owes the Troops a Better VP Pick

John McCain has shown a stunning lack of judgment by choosing Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate. He is simply too old and too unhealthy to pick someone who can't immediately manage U.S. foreign policy. And Sarah Palin comes nowhere close to being qualified.

Well, McCain has thrown us veterans under the bus, guess his new target is the active duty guys. Lord, what a poor excuse for a leader. He used to be so much better than this; now he's just an old fool.

Listen--this is NOT Vietnam. In so many ways. The Iraqi army stood down in 2003. We've been training their army for 3-4 years now. Their govt. is not fighting us--they've had an elected govt. for 4 years that we approve of. We are not napalming villages--we've built schools, projects, etc. This is an OCCUPATION--and their own govt and president says that they are ready to handle their own country--working together with a orderly transition. This is NOT VIETNAM--and our troops know it.

Wow your almost as retarded as her. But you can actually complete your sentences. Why would you not want to talk to people who want to kill us. Would you rather prevent it, or just keep ignoring it like an old fool. Why not fix the problems than hide them. Man think before you talk.

What qualifications does obama or biden have that are so much better than palin? Biden's been wrong about every decision he's ever made and obama wants to sit down and talk to people that want to kill us. She may not be the best choice, but at least she supports what out troops are fighting for. You can't say that for the Democrats.

We don't need luck Thistle. We've got military support. Contrary to the past patterns, Barack Obama has gotten CONSIDERABLY more in contributions from military families and overseas military personal than McCain. Looks like you're WRONG on who the troops want representing them.

Where do you get the idea that they want ANOTHER moronic psychopathic Commander-in-Chief who will willy-nilly sacrifice their lives on ill conceived unnecessary wars that only serve to make our nation LESS safe!

[Thistlebridge]

what a joke. yeah, the troops want a community organizer to represent them! lmao keep kidding yourself. obama is only interested in his own ambition. He has so little experience he has to use his campaign to compete with this, uh, "hockey mom." good luck

Great vid.

"i know this isnt much of a argument but sarah palin oldest son is going to iraq."

So does Beau Biden IIRC.

I think you're forgetting that getting elected at all is his main priority. If he doesn't get elected there will likely be genocide and civil war in Iraq, along with countless other nightmares for many people, if Obama gets in. Remember Vietnam? The left got us out of there too early and the communists proceeded to starve and kill about 1.5 million people after we left. Just because they are not American does not mean they are of less value as people.
