Sarah Palin's daughter is knocked up.
Sarah Palin is knocked up.
Sarah Palin's daughter's baby daddy is a self-professed "effin' redneck" who doesn't want kids.
Sarah Palin's husband is half-Eskimo.
Sarah Palin is using tax money for personal travel.

How come there's no suchlike shit on Joe Biden?

Not to be partial or anything. My political views are all over the place, although according to one site I'm conservative or thingummy. Anyway, my point is - why is there no scoop on Joe Biden? Why are the guys on Obama's side getting some sort of immunity? And how come every stand-up comedy act includes (1)John McCain being a crazy old coot (2)Sarah Palin, Bristol Palin or Levi Johnston or all three, (3)Cindy McCain's plastic face?
There's no mockery of the Democrats anymore. I mean, Hillary Clinton was around adn people poked fun at her, but now SHE'S off the scene. All the rockers and all the actors and all the actresses wear the T-Shirt for Change, and everyone is pimping Obama. Not that I mind the man, but it's just very odd, from an outsider and neutral passer-by's perspective, that a political candidate is more or less morphing into a celebrity of a different kind, and no one seems to have the gumption to stand up and criticize him, his inexperience, and his prophetic yet seemingly planless mantras for a Changed Future?Why? Are they afraid that the criticism might make them racist? It's absolutely okay to call an old guy old to get the laughs, but now what?
I don't support McCain.
My problem is, that I don't support Obama either.

I'm just a lame-ass kid with a laptop.

    opposition for the sake of opposition would be dumb.

    if people don't support him, they can say it, like you did. the thing is, most DO support him.

    the reason is very simpuhll- he has charisma. his smile,his clothes and the passionate nature of his mantra, no matter how facetious, are all MUCH more appealing than shrivelled up, orthodox McCain.

    Which essentially means that you're saying that aside from his policies, which not many people have a clue of anyway, you're rooting for him because he's pretty.
    I'm not asking for opposition for the sake of opposition. I just feel that there are just as many critical Republicans and general bystanders who seem to have no gumption to criticise Obama. I do think there's enough fodder for criticism. I'm only wondering why no one has gotten off their donkeys ( ha!) and done it.

    I can't say I'm ROOTING for him, because I hardly know about his political agenda. And even if I did, I hardly know whether it's what America really needs. All I can see is, he won't let America stagnate. And god knows America needs a shake-up.

    And nobody's perfect. He has his flaws, but there's no point criticising the best athlete in the race, we just want him to win.

    And what's to say that Cain's policies are going to stagnate America? If you don't know of the policies, it's hardly fair to call Cain "orthodox". And again, if you don't know of the policies, why do you want him to win? Because he's got more media coverage, and less of negative media coverage. My initial point.

    It's because the media is typically liberal, so they're digging up dirt on Republicans while keeping the Dems unscathed. A bit of an over generalization, but essentially true.

    You would know. :P

    but Sarah Palin's daughter really IS knocked up! It's not gossip, it's solid fact! And Barack Obama gets his fair share of criticism as well. It's to his credit he's always on guard, and he has kids who aren't pregnant...yet. It's not a question of public gumption really.

    And Joe Biden's got a murky past as well. Look it up.

    hollywood is famous for being democrat, actually.

    this post is ranting without groundwork.

    i know it's cool being the devil's advocate. but seriously. look up both the guys. decide what policies you like. form an opinion.

    i'm sorry i'm being blunt. i guess everyone has their pet peeves. i have quite a few.
