Caribou Barbie strikes again! Ol' Walnuts McCain should be embarrassed for unleashing the Tundra Twit on this nation.

He deserved to lose the election for that reason alone.

It did IMPO cost him the election, his platform was that he'd experienced a lot in life and had the knowledge and wisdom to lead the nation that someone like Obama lacked, then he picks her as a his running mate and in just a few days most people realize she's dumb as a rock and close to bat-shit crazy. That started the demise, how could someone who claimed to be old and wise make that bad of a decision for a running mate??.

I think most of the decision was "how do we counter a young, black man running against us? Oh! With a younger women!" It just happened that they picked the absolute worst possible person in history.
 
come on out libs, let that hate float.

If anyone on the right attacked a woman on the left like this, it would be the war on women WWII edition.

But if a woman happens to be republican. Its fair game to go after her.

Good grief. In the 90's various Republicans were claiming that Hillary Clinton had Vince Foster murdered.

Google the words Rush Limbaugh, Chelsea Clinton and dog.

Comparing crap like that to what folks have to say about Palin is pants on head crazy.

They said they were tortured. In KSM's case, he was waterboarded 183 times. Doesn't sound really effective to me. But hey, if you want to go around torturing people, feel free to move to North Korea. I am sure they could use someone like you.

But the FBI would seem to disagree with you. Most reports show that waterboarding didn't produce much of anything. They also showed that many provided information before waterboarding, so it wasn't necessary (so why did they still do it I wonder? payback? fun?)

James Comey said it was torture. Other FBI agents also said it didn't work.

I think I will go with what the FBI says, versus the anonymous "unnamed government official" talking "off the record" about how great waterboarding is, all the while not mentioning any details.

The recent senate report about the CIA stated basically the same thing.

The report, built around detailed chronologies of dozens of CIA detainees, documents a long-standing pattern of unsubstantiated claims as agency officials sought permission to use — and later tried to defend — excruciating interrogation methods that yielded little, if any, significant intelligence, according to U.S. officials who have reviewed the document.

So they disagree with you too...go figure, huh?
