Look Out!!

She's hot! She's conservative! She's an athlete! She's a member of the NRA! Did I say that she was hot?!!!

I wasn't sure what I was going to do with my vote in November. Like many other conservatives, I have had it with the pseudo-conservatism of John McCain and the George Bush. McCain was impressive at the Saddleback debate, but this was the first time. Was this genuine, or was this a move to the right trying to "solidify his base".

I'm tired of being "solidified", but I can't vote for Obama. The US fought communism for over forty years after the end of World War II. I don't really want to become what many have died to prevent.

With McCain's selection of Sarah Palin as his Vice-Presidential running mate, I may have to put off my "don't-take-conservatives-for-granted" vote that I had been planning for the Republicans this year for another four years. Furthermore, just two days has shown that the race is going to be entertaining. McCain (or his advisers) have made a brilliant pick, one that will surely expose the inadequacies and dangers of the Democrat ticket.

Don't get me wrong; I don't have my "hopes up". Many of the Obama supporters with which I have talked blindly and religiously follow him and/or the Democrat party. John McCain could air an add showing irrefutable evidence of Barack Obama robbing a bank, and these people would either say that he was Robbin Hood getting ready to redistribute to the poor, or that it was a right-wing conspiracy. It will be interesting, and it already has been, however, to listen to the "talking heads" stretch, bend, and snap what is truth in order to get their candidate elected. In the words of Doc Holiday in Tombstone, "[their] hypocracy knows no bounds."

I will spend more time on this in later entries: What is up is down. What is down is up. I even heard the "moderate" Bill O'Riley say on Friday that he cannot take this "B.S." anymore, that what is being said is an insult to average intelligence. For example, is there really a "thinking" person that doesn't see the lunacy of an Obama supporter saying that Sarah Palin lacks the necesary experience for the office of Vice-President?

Let's say neither of these individuals had entered politics (Palin and Obama). Each submits a resume for an executive job at a Fortune 500 company (i.e, a CEO position). I'm not going to take the time here to list what would appear in the two documents, but I can't imagine that it would be disputed that she is going to get the job. She is much more qualified and has much more experience to run a company than Obama, yet his supporters are already clamoring that she doesn't stack up. We are talking about the biggest executive postions that exist, the President and Vice-President of the United States.

What will be fully evident is the demonization of conservatism by a group of people who could care less about "the people" and are only concerned about their own aquiessence and retainment of power. Conservatives are accused of hating minorities...Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, Alberto Gonzalez. They are said to oppress women...Sarah Palin, Condaliza Rice.

The truth is, is that conservatism treats people fairly. It doesn't examine skin color or race. It looks for excellence. If the best candidate is a women, then she's hired. If the most qualified has black skin, then he get's the job. Conservatives don't factor race and skin color in their decisions. Everyone is a human being. Everyone is God's creation. What is fair and just, is what will be done. Let's see what happens now that McCain has changed the complexion of the presidential race!!!
