Gwen Ifill - Too "Write" to be "Moderator"

I must admit, I'm additcted to Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow. I'm not going to lie.

Moving on... Surprise, surprise! There are hints that Good Ol' Party wants to *gasp* postpone the vice presidential debate! A-maz-ing.

Turns out, they had "no idea" Gwen Ifill, the debate's moderator, wrote a book about black politicians, even though the book was revealed in July, and was available for pre-order in August. Stop the press! The McCain camp/conservatives across the land had no idea about this book until they received an email late last night informing them about it. Uh oh.

Greta claims Ifill will sell more books if Obama wins in November, and that makes her a partisan moderator, going against the rules of the debates. Isn't that stretching things, Fox News? If she wrote a book on women in politics, would that suddenly make her incapable of moderating a debate between the VP candidates because one of them happens to be a woman?

Well, at least McCain said she'll be fair and unbiased in her moderator position. So that means the debate is officially on. And it'll be "kinda like the superbowl," according to one Alaskian friend of Sarah Palin. Yeah, girl. And I'll only be watching for the commercials.

>>Side note on Sarah Palin: She can't even name one single newspaper that she reads. What is up with that?? [I can't even comment on the Katie Couric interviews. It pains me.]

Country First? I think not.

Ms. Couric asked, “Have you ever been involved in any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?”
“We have trade missions back and forth,” said Ms. Palin. “We do. It’s very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia. As Putin rears his head and comes into the airspace of the United States of America, where do they go? It’s Alaska. It’s just right over the border. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to our state.”



It is frightening and insulting that John McCain would put his own selfish agenda before the people of this country. "Country First" is a crock of sh*t. If he truly ascribed to that mantra, he would have never chosen such an unqualifited, unprepared, and ill-informed person to be his vice presidential candidate. As each day goes by, it becomes increasingly aggrivating. Her awful politics aside, Governor Palin is proving in interview after interview that she is simply not up to par.

I hope Biden blows her out of the water on Thursday. Although, given McCain's "hail mary" attempt at postponing the first presidential debate, I would not be surprised if their campaign tries to pull some show-stopping excuse out of obscurity. We'll just have to wait and see.

In the meantime, head over to VPilfDaily for your daily dose of fake and real Sarah Palin pictures and news stories. That is, of course, after you check out the world's 2nd hottest policitican, decided by Maxim magazine (where men learn how to objectify women cleverly). "Is it hot in here, or is it just global warming?" Oh, yes.
