I am not saying this as a democrat but as a U.S citizen, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME MCCAIN. Do you really think the dumb ass even comes close to Clinton's credentials. Do you think any women who would vote for Hillary would go for this dingbat...really.... irresponsible and desperate...

Palin: "If Pledge Of Allegiance Was Good Enough For Founding Fathers,It's Good Enough For Me"
by Hunter
Oh. My. God. Giant hat tip to JLFinch's recommended diary: here'sMcCain's selection for the Vice Presidency of the United States, SarahPalin, answering a 2006 policy questionnaire:
Q: Are you offended by the phrase "Under God" in the Pledge ofAllegiance? Why or why not?
PALIN: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the foundingfathers, its good enough for me and I'll fight in defense of ourPledge of Allegiance
"I don't even know what to say to that... I think the only possible response is a long, drawn out pause, followed by a vigorous beating of your head against the wall.Fun facts: when John McCain's grandfather graduated from the Naval Academy in 1906, the Pledge of Allegiance, as first written, was only fourteen years old. It would not be made the official pledge of theUnited States until 1942, six years after John McCain himself wasborn. When John McCain was born, the words "Under God" were not in thePledge. They would not appear there until 1954, during McCain's senioryear of high school.Either McCain's graduating class included Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson (hey, maybe Palin will ask him), or McCain's own vicepresidential candidate doesn't know a stick of history -- but still feels perfectly qualified to opinion on it anyway. What a completely non-comforting thought."

Thanks for the fun Palin fact, but I hardly need a reason to not vote Republican. Keep on fighting the good fight though.
