Susan Molinari just said Sarah Palin is ready to be VICE President-not President!

[jenmito]

David Shuster asked her, a Repub. strategist, if she thinks Palin is ready to be President. She claimed Palin is running for VICE President-not President. And that's who McCain picks to be a heartbeat away from the presidency??? Talk about poor judgment!

[DesertFlower]

1. i heard it too.

she's a republican. what did you expect?

[jenmito]

3. I'd expect her to do better than admit McCain's VP isn't ready to be president!

That's the first qualification necessary for VP-that you're qualified to be PRESIDENT.

[DesertFlower]

7. of course it is. nt

[musette_sf]

2. McCain has one foot in the grave and the other

on a banana peel.

and Susie Molinari is a fucking idiot. her, and her good friend, Vito Fossella.

[jenmito]

4. Who's Vito Fossella? n/t

[musette_sf]

9. hugely disgraced soon to be ex-Rep of NY 13

which is Susie's district. in fact, Susie had the job before Vito the Slime:

picked up for DUI in the DC area, whilst heading for his mistress's pad.

[jenmito]

17. Ooh-thanks! Good stuff...

He kind of looks like Darryl Issa in that pic. Thanks for the info. :hi:

[musette_sf]

24. ah yes, Darryl Issa, another scumbag,

Arnold's stand-in till the bullshit recall engine picked up steam. would i love to know about the skeletons in HIS closet.

[jenmito]

35. Yup!

So would I.

[BlueStateGirl]

5. Does she know why we have a VP? Is she stupid?

[jenmito]

8. Can I answer "yes" to both?

:D

[sfam]

6. You have to LOVE this new argument about the VP...From Cheney forward, the VP pick has been...

considered by the Republicans to be a great test of judgment - that the most important thing is to be ready to step in when the President croaks. McCain even said as much a few months back. But NOW, its cool to be an unqualified VP, just like Quale was.

I wonder how her spelling is...Quick, someone ask her to spell what French Fries are made of...

[jenmito]

13. No-you can't ask her to spell the plural of the word...

that's too easy. She gets to add the "e" along with the "s"! :D

[Cha]

14. I don't know about her spelling but her

Abuse of Power SUCKS.

[Occam Bandage]

10. If that 72-year-old heart stops for a few seconds, she's gotta be ready.

[musette_sf]

12. but if he's got Cheney's doctor

he will live FOREVER

[justiceischeap]

11. All the Repug talking heads are using that statement to avoid answering

the question. I've heard it from at least 3-4 different Repugs asked that question. So in my opinion, by not answering the question, they've answered the question.

[jenmito]

23. Yup. I saw Joe Watkins say the same thing. n/t

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

15. Nice try Susan. This demonstrates just how risky Palin is.

[jenmito]

33. Not to mention her flip-flops and scandals!

Have you been watching Countdown? Or CNN? "Breaking News" ALREADY about her scandals!

[RichGirl]

16. That is not a ringing endorsement.

I wonder if she was thinking "why wasn't it me?" I wonder if other female republican leaders with years of experience aren't just a little pissed off that he picked the young pretty Vogue cover girl, with barely any experience????

[Arugula Latte]

19. Thank you for calling her "young"...

She's two years older than I am, so I'll take that ... :rofl:

[Barack_America]

18. Seems that Susan, like Sarah, isn't sure of what a VP does. nt

[Left Is Write]

20. Shouldn't Susan, as a political strategist, understand who takes over

if something happens to the president?

[spanone]

21. she obviously doesn't understand the role of the vice-president...she appears intelligent but...

[Overseas]

22. Oh, that's okay then.................... NOT! /nt

[democraticjohn]

25. Susan Molinari is a Republican media .............

RHYMES WITH "BORE"

Never believe a word out of her mouth!

[Chovexani]

26. This from Molinari, birthed of a mob-connected cesspool of Staten Island crooks

What a ringing endorsement. :rofl:

[musette_sf]

32. let's not forget Daddy Guy n/t

and of course DUI Vito.

signed, former resident of NY-13 in its various gerrymandered configurations.

[Chovexani]

36. LOL. How could we.

Poor you. I promise we weren't laughing across the Verrazano.

...much. :evilgrin:

[musette_sf]

38. i've lived in SI

and in Bay Ridge, so i do knoweth the pain from both sides of the Narrows.

[4themind]

27. Probably a trap by Molinari

to get dems to agree to that statement, but then spin it around and say Palin and Obama's experience are equal hence he's not qualified either (yeah I know, pretty stupid but they'll try to use the "executive experience line as a hail mary) Essentially saying "Yeah she sucks but she's only the V.P. your guy will be prez!" Although again that completely demeans the office of the V.P. as one who is capable of taking over the presidency at any time, by extension it exposes the McCain pick for the vote pandering ploy it is

[carpetbagger]

28. She also talked about "much needed tax relief" for Alaskans

Somehow related to Palin's spending cuts. Isn't Alaskan tax day when everyone gets a check from the oil fund?

[BlueIdaho]

29. Rove sock puppet. nt.

[Thrill]

30. Did Shuster call her on it?

[jenmito]

37. Nope. But the liberal guest did (I forget his name now), saying that's why

McCain may get a TEMPORARY bump but once it sinks in (the reality of her inexperience) it will end up being a net negative.

[lonestarnot]

31. Pugs never "think" past their nose, and they're pretty stuffy.

[mzmolly]

34. Apparently they misunderstand the concept?

:eyes:
