Yes...'n then again, No....

Ah, sure and it was a lovely debate....Joltin’ Joe kept a lid on his temper tho’ there were moments where it was obvious that he got a little tight-jawed...still, he’s an old pro ‘n he did a professional job....All Sarah had t’do and I don’t think it was a secret, was not make a fool of herself...I c’d almost hear the Republican prayers that she not fumble for answers, please God don’t give Tina Fey any more ammunition, and don’t die of stage fright...
Well, it’s pretty obvious that she didn’t die of stage fright or Biden fright or any other kind of fright....what she did was surprise opponents and supporters alike by taking the fight to Joltin’ Joe....I didn’t see a knockout punch from her, but her jabs ‘n hooks ‘n parries kept the old pro off balance thru the entire match....I give her every round and a TKO....
‘Course, this was just a pre-lim....the heavyweights are yet to come....McCain ‘n Obama for the heavyweight champeenship of the world....Well, the world within the confines of the USA...We have a tendency to consider our champions as world champions even tho’ we don’t allow anyone else to actually compete...
So, one of my daughters informed me that she’s against Palin because “she’s against abortion rights.”
And I saw in the unofficial State newspaper (SacBee) that Sarah Bernhard lost a job (like I care) for declaring that Palin is “against abortion rights.”
And...I have a son in law who refused to believe me when I told him that I saw Palin in an interview where she denied that she was “against abortion rights.”
I saw the Couric interview with Palin and, yet again she answered the question (asked multiple times by Couric) that she was anti-abortion for herself, that she believed in the right to life, that she believed life begins at conception, but she wouldn’t attempt to force anyone else to share her beliefs and didn’t think it was a good idea to send people to jail for believing in abortion rights.
It’s been my experience that liars believe that everyone lies. The reverse is also true. People who are basically honest themselves believe that everybody is basically honest. I’m not sure what that says about people who believe that Sarah Palin is lying about her beliefs but who refuse to believe that Obama lied when he said that he had never heard Jeremiah Wright make a racist statement. Obama says he and his family attended the church at least every couple weeks for twenty years yet in all that time, he’d never heard a devout racist speak on racial issues. A cursory search on Google gives the lie to Obama's statement. To believe Obama betrays a naivete that simply boggles the brain. The scary thing about Obama is that he might become the next President of the US. Judging on what I’ve seen so far of this man,that could lead to a scenario so frightening that it would take all the fun out of saying “I told you so.” Not that I’m ready to leave the country or anything (like so many deluded Dems threatened over Bush).....I consider Obama to be a tsunami, full of sound and fury signifying nothing, and we have survived Katrina and Ike and I’m pretty sure we would survive an Obama wind (if we absolutely must)....I think this younger generation that believes so fervently in Obama will find their idol has feet of clay.
