HowardSarah Palin- Alaska's Elite or Trailer trash?
Real Crash- Looking at the Financial System and the War Drive:
Carly Simon, Legend in Your Own Time, Sarah Palin
Well you're nominated for Vice President;
Way up with the chosen of the land;
Think kind of sadly to yourself;
But you're a legend in your own time;;;
(spoof- Carly Simon, song- Legend in Your Own Time)
The announcement that VP candidate's daughter Bristol is pregnant, unmarried at 17-years old is beginning to confirm some of pundits suspicions- the Palin family is a bunch of trailer trash. Is this another case of Christian fundi symbolism? Will this woman and John McCain really be able to deal with a bunch of Brits and Neo-cons who want to go to the brink of nuclear war with Russia?
War just to "make the world safe for the IMF, WTO, the British Empire, Free Trade and Slave Labor? Yes, 90 nations object to demands to eliminate taxes and tariffs on the import of grains and food. They are doing this to protect their ability to grow their own food and not be starved to death. Will Sarah and John McCain be willing to go to war, in order to ensure the right of the Anglo-Dutch oligarchy, to starve these people to death? War to make sure there is no competition to a bankrupt financial system?
How about a four powers deal, Russia, USA, China, India, etc to put the bubble through a bankruptcy reorganization? Let's have a New Bretton Woods, like FDR. End speculation on currencies now. Rebuild infrastructure.
The Political Brief
As a parent, I have learned over the years that parents do not always control or approve of their childrens behavior or activities. Governor Palin may or may not be trailer trash, but the out-of-wedlock pregnancy of her daughter wont prove or disprove it.
I dont think much of her, but fair is fair!

You can only judge a person by thewir OWN behavior. Even you probably have some nice relatives...

The Political Brief
I am in the process of writing an article on our agreement with Poland setting up missiles in that country, thereby increasing US-Russian tensions without reason. My first paragraph, which I will now modify, points out
A nation must do whatever is in its own national interest, regardless of world opinion, although the latter is part of the formula for determining the former. The issue posed by the Bush (43) administration is whether the United States foreign policy has been kidnapped by a group of neo-conservatives which is determined to flex our military muscle even if (1) the military has been so spread that its muscle is limited; (2) the United States threatens relations with allies whose support is necessary in combating world-wide terrorism and in other endeavors; and (3) we resume the era of the Soviet-U.S. cold war which we had won over 25 years ago. Added to this mix is a president willing to acquiesce, determined to be more of a warrior than his father and intellectually incapable to recognize that he is being manipulated.
No, Howard, I do not trust either Senator McCain who no longer has the facilities he once had or Governor Palin whose lack of any meaningful history is manifest to steer this country to prosperity and peace.
