Really? Sex-ed for 5 year olds?

Well kids, Sarah Palin it is (I know, I know, behind the times, but I've been too busy at work to blog. Sorry for the "duh" moment). And it turns out some people (mostly radical feminists) are not too happy with the pick. Feminazi's, however, seem to be all hot air when it comes to Palin (I think that they're just mad because, by picking Palin, McCain effectively took the gender card right out of the Dems hands).

The whole point of elections is strategy. Whose strategy will win them the big race? Whose strategy will effectively draw in voters without alienating their own people? The only reason people like Gloria Steinem (and other femenazis) are bitter about John McCain choosing Sarah Palin over Joe Lieberman is because they understand that had McCain picked Lieberman the Conservative Republican base that is so key to the GOP party would have been completely alienated by the pro-choice former Democrat, and would not have thrown their full support by McCain, effectively handing the presidency to Obama. However, to say that Palin is alienating women is completely farcical. Since announcing his running mate, John McCain has enjoyed an almost 12 point bump in the support of white women…going from trailing Obama by 4% to beating him by 8%!

When Gloria Steinem (ugh) points out the John McCain chose Sarah Palin to “please the right-wing ideologues,” she neglects to mention one thing: Barack Obama didn’t exactly choose Joe Biden to be his VP because they’re BFFs. In fact, the two exchanged some pretty bitter words while they were campaigning against each other in the primaries. But Obama knew that there were a lot of Democrats that actually for once AGREED with Republicans in thinking (rightly) that Obama didn’t have any sort of foreign policy experience to fall back on as president, and his running mate needed to have some or we were going to have some seriously trashed international relations. If that’s not trying to please the left-wingers I don’t know what is.

And speaking of experience, let’s try this one on for size: what sort of executive leadership experience in government does Sarah Palin have? She’s been the mayor of a 9,000 person town, and the governor of a state (the most popular governor in the modern history of the United States, I might add, with approval ratings consistently between 80% and 90%). What kind of governmental executive leadership has Barack Obama had? None. Zero, zip, zilch, nada. His only job in the government has been as a state Senator, and then a US Senator. But history has proven that the executive office of president is better filled by those with executive experience (like generals, others with military command positions, and governors) rather than those who COMPROMISE for a living (senators and US representatives).

Let’s face it…a community organizer has nothing to do with governmental executive power. It’s like comparing beans to grapefruits. They’re not even in the same family. And Barack Obama got into the senate and two months later was already sending out campaign feelers about running for president, not to mention he’s been on the campaign trail for the majority of his term. So can we honestly say he’s been focused on passing helpful and constructive legislation to brighten the future of America? And while in the state legislature, Obama, who touts education as one of the primary issues in the campaign and has spoken about it dogmatically, has made one significant contribution to the education reform in Illinois. Obama's one accomplishment? Legislation to teach 'comprehensive sex education' to kindergartners. Learning about sex before learning to read? Give me a break.
