Yesterday was McCain's 72nd birthday. If elected, he'd be the

oldest president ever inaugurated. And after months of slamming Barack

Obama for " inexperience, " here's who McCain has chosen to be one

heartbeat away from the presidency: a right-wing religious

conservative with no foreign policy experience, who until recently was

mayor of a town of 9,000 people.

Huh?

Um, YEAH, " huh? " .

WhyEVER are you posting political essays on this list? It's going to take

me 20 minutes MINIMUM to clear that out of my energies.

When I want to watch the news or read the paper, that's what I'll do, thanks

all the same.

Ev,

I agree. After reading the first post and the ass-inine response

that followed, I've got my finger on the unsub button.

I'm with you . If this is going to continue I will have to leave the

list. I'm just hoping this was a smash and dash and we'll never hear from

this person (I have a different word running through my head!)

I may or may not agree with these issues, but this forum is not the place for political ads.

If elected, he'd be the

oldest president ever inaugurated. And after months of slamming Barack

Obama for "inexperience," here's who McCain has chosen to be

one

heartbeat away from the presidency: a right-wing religious

conservative with no foreign policy experience, who until recently was

mayor of a town of 9,000 people.

Huh?

Who is Palin? Here's some basic background:

* She was elected Alaska's governor a little over a year and a

half ago. Her previous office was mayor of Wasilla, a small town

outside Anchorage. She has no foreign policy experience.1

* Palin is strongly anti-choice, opposing abortion even in the

case of rape or incest.2

* She supported right-wing extremist Pat Buchanan for president in 2000. 3

* Palin thinks creationism should be taught in public schools.4

* She's doesn't think humans are the cause of climate change.5

* She's solidly in line with McCain's "Big Oil

first" energy

policy. She's pushed hard for more oil drilling and says renewables

won't be ready for years. She also sued the Bush administration for

listing polar bears as an endangered species—she was worried it would

interfere with more oil drilling in Alaska.6

* How closely did McCain vet this choice? He met Palin

once at a meeting. They spoke a second time, last Sunday, when he

called her about being vice-president. Then he offered her the

position.7

This is information the American people need to see. Please take a

moment to forward this email to your friends and family.

We also asked Alaska MoveOn members what the rest of us should know

about their governor. The response was striking. Here's a sample:

She is really just a mayor from a small town outside Anchorage who has

been a governor for only 1.5 years, and has ZERO national and

international experience. I shudder to think that she could be the

person taking that 3AM call on the White House hotline, and the one

who could potentially be charged with leading the US in the volatile

international scene that exists today. —Rose M., Fairbanks, AK

She is VERY, VERY conservative, and far from perfect. She's a hunter

and fisherwoman, but votes against the environment again and again.

She ran on ethics reform, but is currently under investigation for

several charges involving hiring and firing of state officials. She

has NO experience beyond Alaska. — B., Denali Park, AK

As an Alaskan and a feminist, I am beyond words at this announcement.

Palin is not a feminist, and she is not the reformer she claims to be.

— L., Anchorage, AK

Alaskans, collectively, are just as stunned as the rest of the nation.

She is doing well running our State, but is totally inexperienced on

the national level, and very much unequipped to run the nation, if it

came to that. She is as far right as one can get, which has already

been communicated on the news. In our office of thirty employees

(dems, republicans, and nonpartisans), not one person feels she is

ready for the V.P. position.—Sherry C., Anchorage, AK

She's vehemently anti-choice and doesn't care about protecting our

natural resources, even though she has worked as a fisherman. McCain

chose her to pick up the Hillary voters, but Palin is no Hillary.

—Marina L., Juneau, AK

I think she's far too inexperienced to be in this position. I'm all

for a woman in the White House, but not one who hasn't done anything

to deserve it. There are far many other women who have worked their

way up and have much more experience that would have been better

choices. This is a patronizing decision on McCain's part- and

insulting to females everywhere that he would assume he'll get our

vote by putting "A Woman" in that position.— M., Anchorage,

AK

So Governor Palin is a staunch anti-choice religious conservative.

She's a global warming denier who shares McCain's commitment to

Big Oil. And she's dramatically inexperienced.

In picking Palin, McCain has made the religious right very

happy. And he's made a very dangerous decision for our country.

In the next few days, many Americans will be wondering what McCain's

vice-presidential choice means. Please pass this information along to

your friends and family.

Thanks for all you do.

I gratefully accept the apology, and thank you for it.

Everyone has an off day now and again - I'm having one myself today (if I weren't, I'd have simply ignored the post).

And here's wishing you a speedy recovery from your surgery.
