Forget the lipstick - We need some facts and good reporting on Palin and her ACTUAL positions

::::::::

 
I am a woman and a single mom with elderly parents who depend on medicare.  Did you know you could "cap" out of medicare - daddy almost did last year and they have NO net.  Did you know that per a recent  npr story, the average cost of insurance for a family of 4 is $13,000 per year - so how far will that $5000 tax credit go that mccain promises???????  NOT FAR.  And he will tax any health care benefits from employers.  Isn't there some good reporting to be done there???????????  Do we believe that McCain knows the prices or that he has a plan to bring the prices down??
THESE THINGS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN PIGS, LIPSTICK, AND THE MANTRA OF SEXISM.
I am a woman, it is NOT sexist for me to expect that Palin and all her credentials be explored.  and STOP allowing sound bites to pass as news.  Here is what i know, and she is NOT qualified.
she would do even more harm than bush to the environment

she does not believe in global warming - same coloring book as bush again

she wants to drill everywhere

she and her running mate has NEVER voted for alternative energy (see S. 3335)

she laughs when other women are called bit__ on a public radio

she is a member of the AIP that thinks it can start its own country


she is OK with book banning and will bully librarians to get her way

she was before the bridge before she was against it and "forgot" that AND SHE SPENT THAT $233 MILLION - it was NOT hers to just go spend and then claim she said "no" - NOW THERE IS A REAL STORY.  report on what she did with it.

she has troopergate and now wants to transfer the case to her cronies

she thinks God ordained the war

she left her town $27 million in debt - a town of LESS than 10,000

she HAS used lobbyist - we are just supposed to ignore that fact

her running mate VOTED AGAINST equal pay for equal work and she supports that position.  Really - as a woman????

mccain and his family spent $900,000 on ONE credit vcard in ONE month - he has no clue about the economy.  She pays herself for living in her own home and justifies that - she is a fiscal conservative?????

mccain wants to, and VOTED for privatization of social security - my parents depend on that!

mccain and palin's probable financial advisor - phil graham - thinks all this is in our heads!

LESS THAN 2000 PEOPLE ELECTED HER as mayor in BOTH of her election PUT TOGETHER  - that needs to be known.  Alaska has a population SMALLER THAN Columbus, Ohio - true fact.  And she has 18 months experience.  YET WE SEE NO STORIES ON ANY OF THIS - JUST THAT STUPIDITY OF PIGS AND LIPSTICK

and tax breaks - Obama will cut the taxes for anyone making less than $112,000, eliminate capital gains tax on small businesses AND the low income elderly will pay NO taxes.  ONLY the very rich (at least to little old me) will get an increase.  WHY DOESN'T ANYONE CHALLENGE THOSE SOUND BITES ABOUT OBAMA WILL INCREASE TAXES - IT IS A FLAT OUT LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
