We need a leader, not a lying comedian

I would like to ask the people of Wasilla how they feel about their governor giving speeches where she is speaking untruths and knowingly doing so.

I thought she was a Christian, at least she proclaims to be. Yet she loves to spread lies about Mr. Obama and repeatedly attack the other party. When I was a child, (I am now 63), this was how we argued. If we didn’t know the answer we got snippy and retaliated against the other kids. Seems to me she, Governor Palin, is acting very childish, and it is quite unbecoming for a governor and certainly not a good example for her children to see.

If this is how she acts now, God help us if she gets in the White House. If anyone makes her angry, she will just start a war …

As a governor, only Alaskans know how she has done or will do but I tell you this, I don’t want someone a heart beat away from running this country, acting like a school yard bully because it is obvious that her education is lacking.

Don’t you want someone who is educated and intelligent to lead us back to being a leading power?

When she is asked questions without knowing what they are she cannot come up with the answers. Of course she handled herself fairly well at the debate, she was coached and coached extensively, but if you truly listened to her answers, if you can call them that, they were totally evasive.

This is not Alaska we are talking about but the future of our entire country.

I am a mother and grandmother, and I would never allow my child to be paraded on stage for the world to see when it is so very obvious that she was in pain from the publicity and using a special needs child to get votes is absolutely disgraceful.

The other night the debate ended at 10:30 p.m. That baby should have been in bed, but I guess she figured it was worth a few more votes.

Does she get laughs? Yes, but I don’t think we need a comedian in the White House.
