Credentialing Palin & Obama

Palin or Obama, Which is More Qualified to Serve?

PBS ASKS, "IS PALIN QUALIFIED TO BE VP?"

PBS by asking this question, ignoring the woeful experience and very limited qualifications of Barack Obama demonstrate their liberal bias toward "their" candidate. PBS, the most liberal network in America (funded, incidentally, by our tax dollars) is running a poll concerning Sarah Palin PBS asked its readers in their online survey:

Do you think Sarah Palin is qualified to serve as Vice President of the United States?

___ Yes
___ No
___ Not Sure

The last time I looked, the PBS poll Yes-No vote tallied 49%-49% respectively. So half the readers of the PBS website think that Palin is unqualified. Wow, that must mean that Barack Obama is off the chart, meaning he is way unqualified.

AFA ASKS, "IS OBAMA QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT?"

Amazingly PBS targets Governor Sarah Palin, but ignores the Democratic Candidate for President, who has little to no actual executive experience. He writes books, campaigns and makes glorious speeches, that seems to be the extent of his qualifications.

To counter balance PBS lapse of unbiased reporting, or deliberate avoidance (or cover-up) of the qualification of Senator Barack Hussein Obama, the American Family Association (AFA) has posted its own poll question addressing Obama’s qualification.

Do you think Barack Obama is qualified to serve as President of the United States?

___ Yes
___ No
___ Not Sure

Not surprisingly the question resulted, so far, in a 20 to 1 margin NO to YES, meaning that Senator Obama in the eyes of AFA readers Obama is NOT qualified to serve as President.

What bothers me more than the results is the question. PBS deliberate attempt to demean or diminish Governor Palin, while at the same time ignoring the absolute lack of qualifications of Senator Obama.

WHO IS SARAH PALIN?

If America really wants to get a glimpse of the real Governor Palin and her qualifications, read the following.

The following email was forwarded to me by TD, who received it from someone. This information has been floating in cyberspace on the Internet. It reveals some inside information about the Republican candidate for Vice President and addresses, among other things, her experience. Her experience contrasted to the Democratic Party candidate for President is incomparable and superior. To hear the mainstream media’s slant, the woman woman is a total bimbo, which could not be further from the truth. The real bimbos are the other three candidates for President and Vice President!

One of our good friends, Eddie Spalten from San Antonio, fishes at the Wildman Lodge on the Alaskan Peninsula. The lodge is owned by Butch and Kathy Wildman. The Wildmans spend their winters in Texas and their Summers in Alaska. Kathy's father and her ex-husband served in the Alaskan legislature for around 30 years so Butch and Kathy know Alaska politics. Eddie emailed Butch and asked Butch what the Wildmans think of Gov.Sarah Palin. Butch's unedited email is attached below . . . This is what the citizens of Alaska think of Sarah Palin.

Subject: Who is Sarah

Hi Eddie:

Fishing is good here at Wildman and I rarely have time for politics, but many of our friends are asking us "Who is Sarah Palin?" Of course, as Alaskans, Kathy and I are extremely proud of her. We just want to let You know that Sarah "Barracuda" Palin is a straight shooting, hard charging, get it done gal. She knows when to listen, how to analyze the facts and how to make a decision, then implement the plan. She doesn't do a poll before jumping in with both feet like too many of the Washington types.

EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE

She has little legislative experience because she has always held the EXECUTIVE position; in private life, as mayor of Anchorage’s largest bedroom community and more recently as Governor of our State. She is a smart, attractive home grown Alaska girl with excellent moral and family values. She can see what needs to be done and does not hesitate to get it done.

One of our State's major problems is that it's Capital is in Juneau , 500 miles from the nearest road and 800 air miles from the population base which is Anchorage , Wasilla and Fairbanks . Our legislature and most of the State government is in Juneau and they ALL behave like a bunch of freshmen in a college town. It has been this way since Statehood in 1959. When Sarah moved to Juneau , so did accountability and responsibility.

When the oil revenue started flowing and a barrel of North Slope Crude hit $23.00, these people began spending money like drunken sailors. You can only imagine what was happenings when oil hit $100.00 a barrel; about the Time Sarah took command. My wife Kathy has first-hand experience with this fiasco, as her father and also her ex-husband were Alaska Legislators who served in Juneau as Senators, Senate President, or members of the State House for a combined period spanning nearly three decades.

About the time Sarah took the HELM as Governor of Alaska, about half of the State legislature was in the pocket of big oil companies or contractors doing big projects for Native Corporations around Alaska , all funded by State oil revenue. Alaska government was nothing but a good old boys Club riding the perpetual wave of prosperity. This filtered down from the legislature, through the Department of Natural Resources, Department of Labor and even spilled into the Public Safety who are supposed to "preserve and protect".

BUDGET CONSCIOUS

When Sarah walked into the Governor's Mansion, she promptly dismissed the State Trooper detachment assigned to the Governor and had her and her husband's gun case brought in from Wasilla. Then, she got rid of the former Governor's STATE Jet and told legislators that there were no more free rides, they would have to fly Alaska Airlines, just like her and her family if they wanted to travel. Next came the nut cutting (the Barracuda part) the heads that rolled were too numerous to name, but when Sarah finished cleaning house, a number of our legislators ended up in jail on corruption charges, or tendered their resignations along with numerous department heads and those who have been riding the gravy train for way too long, AND THEN SHE HAD LUNCH. By the end of the day, Sarah Palin had saved the people of Alaska millions and has not yet slowed down.

REAL CHANGE

She has truly brought CHANGE to Juneau . I personally know several persons in the private sector in Alaska , that hold her in high esteem. She surrounds herself with smart people, many from my hometown of Anchorage , she listens to them but makes her own decisions. Sarah Palin is a no B.S. politician. It is refreshing that there is such a thing anymore.

You want to talk about CHANGE? You should see a before and after picture of the State government in Alaska . That's CHANGE! Sarah will bring a number of things to the election. I am sure she will appeal to many voters who may otherwise could have gone the other direction on election day. The conservative block will not be for Barack. We have their vote. We need what Sarah will bring, first to the election and second, what she will bring to Washington D.C. McCain has been advised well, Let's just hope the American people can get the straight scoop on her in the weeks ahead. This is just the opinion of one Alaska Bush Pilot and Guide, who pays attention to national politics, watches the news and is deathly afraid of the direction our nation is headed. I guarantee that if Sarah gets a chance to dig her spurs into the flanks of the liberal Washington types, they will know that she is in the saddle.
