As a citizen of the United States of America and as someone who used to be proud of her country, now I'm just embarrassed more so than ever before. Occasionally, I've been embarrassed by stupid remarks made by other Americans but it was never to the extent that I would be too embarrassed to live in the country. Now the situation is toeing that line. I don't want to live in a country I'm ashamed of and that will inevitably go to ruin because of the people's own stupidity! Palin may only be the VP nominee... but McCain is an old fart. He's 72 years old!!! That means if he gets elected, Sarah Palin will be one 72-year-old's heartbeat away from becoming the President of the United State of America. What could possibly be a scarier thought than that???
I'm not so much of an avid supporter of Obama anymore, especially after doing some research and discovering how he passed the FISA, an act that I believe is in direct violation of "American" beliefs as expressed by our founding fathers. But though I'm not a huge Obama fan and I disagree with some of his politics (and though, like all politicians, he's probably more bark than bite), he's still better than McCain.
McCain... he's either senile or stupid or both. He's the one who said Putin was the President of Germany:
...and while clearly pretending to be informed and knowledgeable about international relations/politics during the 1st presidential debate with Barack Obama, mispronounced the President of Pakistan's name (which is actually Asif Ali Zardari) as Kadari. This is why you shouldn't pretend to know things that you don't.
I've already expressed what I feel about Sarah Palin, but it's not just me who feels this way. A lot of people have noticed what a bimbo she is. I mean, she was the fucking runner-up for the Miss Alaska pageant... WTF??? She's not smart. She's not qualified. She's not experienced... and that's why in this SNL skit, they made fun of both her and Hillary Clinton (but mostly, they made fun of Sarah Palin because at least Hillary's smart - yes, Hillary is an opportunistic, power-hungry bitch, but she's still better than Sarah Palin):
Then the CBS interview with Katie Couric where she sounds like....
I can't say this in a nice way... a FUCKING IDIOT! If she says "Crisis mode" one more time, I'm going to stab her in the face from across the ocean!!!
Actually, that interview is reminiscent of another beauty pageant contestant who couldn't answer a rather simple question:
Of course, SNL had to make fun of the fiasco of an interview and I have to love them for that. They pretty much summed up (quite nicely, might I add) the interview.
So there you have it. Those are my two cents on this particular topic.
