Context for Journal Entries: I'm in the process of compiling all the columns/articles written by "conservatives" either (a) against McCain/Palin, or (b) for Obama/Biden. While these articles are often posted in Editorials or Other Articles, or other forums, they're included/mixed in with the many articles on other topics. My goal is to create a "set" of conservatives against McCain/for Obama in one place, so I'm posting all I can find in my journal. Vaguer, Please By: Radley Balko, TheAgitator.com, Sept. 18, 2008Sarah Palin, when asked at a controlled “town hall” meeting what specific foreign policy experience she has that qualifies her to be president:
Well, I think because I’m a Washington outsider that opponents are going to be looking for a whole lot of things that they can criticize and they can kind of try to beat the candidates here, who chose me as his partner, to kind of tear down the ticket. But as for foreign policy, you know, I think that I am prepared and I know that on January 20th, if we are so blessed as to be sworn into office as your president and vice president, certainly we’ll be ready. I’ll be ready. I have that confidence. I have that readiness.
And if you want specifics with specific policy or countries, go ahead and you can ask me. You can even play stump the candidate if you want to. But we are ready to serve.
Okay, so I was wrong. (Referring to his prior column,
A Decent Pick: Libertarians could do worse than Sarah Palin)
Per other DU-ers' requests, I'm cross-posting links to these articles in the Research Forum: Conservatives Against McCain/Palin and Conservatives For Obama/Biden.
