She does, she was meaning that although Palin is the Commander in chief of the Alaskan National Guard, she isn't when the decisions like how to arm and when they are deployed in Iraq. Campbell wanted to know what Palin had commanded the Guard to do when they weren't going overseas, b/c if they just sit there and do nothing, that does not qualify as command experience, even though she is technically their commander in chief. And btw Rep. lie when they say obama will raise taxes

Wouldn't it have be nice if Tucker Bigmouth had answered the question. If McCain's gonna lie to us now, what makes ya think he'll do anything different as President. This moron didn't even mention that Obama has a B.A. from Columbia U. in Political Science with specialization in international relations,(Thesis topic: Soviet nuclear disarmament.) He also leaves out Obama's time in the Ill. senate from 1996 to 2004. From 04 up to now in the U.S. senate, he's been doing the same thing as McCain.

lol obama's a harvard lawyer.

palin went to abt 5 or 6 different ordinary schools to get 1 small degree.. talk abt intelligence.

Campbell is out to lunch. Obama has zero leadership experience. Biden too. They're just lawyers.

it is pathetic who the McCain-Palin camp lie and try to defend what can't be defended. Palin was seen on live TV looking like the deer of moose she likes to hunt in the headlights. So typical that when asked tough questions on experience and integrity Republicans attack the media calling them liberally biased and then run over to fox news to get them to lie and carry the buckets of toilet sludge, which McCain-Palin bring to this election. Forget leadership and ability two of them share a brain.

So unless Alaska gets a hurricane, she has no actual command of the guard?

[lebaneseameer]

Actually the Alaskan Guard has helped the Alaskan people under Hurricane Rita. Wait....there are no Hurricanes in Alaska....never mind!

The Alaska National Guard operates a launch site for a US anti-missile system at Fort Greely, about 100 miles south of Fairbanks. However, the Alaskan governor is not in the sites chain of command and has no authority over its operations, according to Maj. Gen. Craig E. Campbell. [Boston Globe, 9/3/2008]

[Ara0liver]

The Governor has "no role in national defense activities, even when they involve the Alaska National Guard. The entire operation is under federal control, and the governor is not briefed on situations. [The Associated Press, 8/31/2008]

We know what governors can do as Commander in Chief, but what has she done? The gov's of the Gulf states command the guard when there's a crisis like a hurricane, when they go to Iraq however they are no longer under their control. SO what have the Alaskan Guard done, under Sarah Palin's control?

[gnickles1]

Imagine Sarah Palin up against Campbell Brown. When are Sarah's handlers going to let her stand on her own? Sarah doesn't have the depth or the self-control to get 'off book' on the election stage; how is she going to ever handle the global stage. What a sham that Sarah won't have to face Biden in a real debate. If Tucker Bounds as spokesman for the McCain ticket is characteristic of what counts as reasoned discourse, the issues will never really be addressed by anyone in the McCain camp.

The best part is when he states that the choice is between Obama and McSame, which proves the point that she is just a token to get uneducated women's vote... I do have to admit that her choice is brilliant from a political point of view, a country gets the goverment it deserves
