J. Toronado said:reactionary and defensive? not sure. i think he just thought he could steal some of hilary's supporters. but he'll lose just as many for the obvious pandering. if mccain thought he was going to argue about the obama ticket lacking experience he just shot himself in the foot. today is a good day. mark it down. mccain officially lost the elction today.

Too late Michael, her son is already going and they are PROUD of it.
mgreenspan said:Go read McCain's "Issues" section on the www.johnmccain.com website and you'll see what she brings to the table. What she has done in Alaska is very similar to what McCain has down on a lot of the different issues. So I'd say she brings strength and experience to what he wants to do.
J. Toronado said:Who is Sarah Palin? Here's some basic background:
She was elected Alaska's governor a little over a year and a half ago. Her previous office was mayor of Wasilla, a small town outside Anchorage.
Palin is strongly anti-choice, opposing abortion even in the case of rape or incest.
She supported nutjob Pat Buchanan for president in 2000.
Palin thinks creationism should be taught in public schools.
She's doesn't think humans are the cause of climate change.
She's solidly in line with John McCain's "Big Oil first" energy policy. She's pushed hard for more oil drilling and says renewables won't be ready for years. She also sued the Bush administration for listing polar bears as an endangered species.
I'm not saying a woman cant be a great vp or prez, but his choice seems a little obvious. Mccain will get grilled for this endlessly in next few months. Should be fun.

BS. It's completely meaningless. You can say the same about any culture.RBBailey said:Studying Greek culture is to study their religion. Almost everything taught about the Greeks incorporates teaching about their religion and especially their belief systems. I can't imagine people don't understand this.
RBBailey said:Explain this and I will agree with you. If you can explain how telling people that there are other people who believe in a god is the equal to establishing religion, I would agree with you.
