CA 02: Palin, Obama - The Experience Factor

Sarah Palin or Barrack Obama - Who has more experience

Wow. The question really made me laugh. As I write this blog, the majority of US is ganging up against Sarah Palin, the Republican VP pick. Obama went on to state that he had more experience than Palin. A presidential candidate is comparing himself to a vice-presidential candidate and says that he is better? I bet he is slapping his head right now.

Anyways, WHO IS BETTER is a question, the answer for which is heavily influenced by the media. The media is more concerned about the experience of a Vice President than that of the President. My question is simple. If the media feels that they have grilled Obama on the experience, I strongly feel that they should continue doing that (even though they actually haven't) and change their attention purely on to a new scapegoat.

I heard a comment from Wolf Blitzer on CNN that Obama was scrutinized as well on his experience, when Guiliani was asking why they are doing it to Palin. I was laughing. Are you telling me that you do not have a problem in having Obama as a President despite his inexperience, just because Palin does not have inexperience? How more irresponsible of an answer can that be?

As Obamabots go on a rampage, trashing everybody who runs against Obama, the media follows suit. FOX News' Hannity & Colmes known for its Republican support do not get as much hate as MSNBC's Keith Olbermann who is known for his equally Democratic support.

I would not blame the Main Stream media too much, because the Obamabots are like that. If you go around the articles on the internet and look at the comments section, you will see how people are. They did it to Hillary and they are doing it to Sarah now. You will find articles that questions on the lines of whether Palin being a woman, would be able to take care of her child as well as the office that she might hold. My answer is that I believe she is not divorced and she has a hale and healthy husband and of course, that is none of your freaking business. In Palin's own words, A ship is safe in the harbor but it was not built for that.

If you are suggesting that Palin has to take care of her family and not be selfish and greedy for the office, think again - In whatever way you might want to put it, you ARE a sexist. Her kid Trig being a few months old with Down syndrome would be tough but not impossible. If you think it is impossible, think again - In whatever way you might put it, you ARE a sexist.

The two main questions are about her two daughters and they even go on about asking whether McCain did not do the vetting properly. Seriously? All this is being thrown at a person who has not even finished a week into the race. I only hope that she comes out of this alive.

This kind of tactics definitely makes me hate Obama and Obamabots more. Obamabots, you heard Obama and Biden say "Kids are off-limit". If you are raised where you respect your seniors, you would know what to do, but to the best of my knowledge, you folks will not be able to stop that and so will be my growing of hatred towards you bunch.
