Seriously? Tucker Bounds

Posted September 3, 2008

experience

"She's been the commander of the Alaskan National Guard that's been deployed overseas—that's foreign policy experience. ... As she makes a decision as to how to equip, how to command the National Guard in Alaska, that is more experience and more of a judgment than Barack Obama's making on the campaign trail."

—McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds, explaining on CNN how Sarah Palin's role as commander of the Alaskan National Guard is an example of her foreign policy experience

Tucker is a sucker...long after the election

wow...he is on msnbc today 3-26-09...and why? cant say...not an original thought in his brain...wrong on the issues, wrong on the strategy, and wrong on the analysis..somehow trying to paint the obama budget push as a permanent campaign, when in reality it is a push back against the partisanship of the GOP in congress..Obama is laying the GOP out for what they currently are...old ideas, attacks, and irresponsible innuendo... they are just mad because he is smarter than them, and will not fall for their playground bully tactics... the game has changed..its more open and honest.. he whines about the wsj and usa today being excluded from a press conf...2 murdoch mouthpieces...wow...no loss there.. he and Ron Christie should get married and move to the back woods...

It is unbeliveable to me that the McCain camp makes this twenty nine year old idiot the poster boy spokesperson for the campaign. I mean is this the best they can do. If so they should take Obama and escort him to the oval office.

Tucker- I just watched your interview on fox. When asked about the economy why is no one putting the money to Freddy from Obama as a hugh cause not mentioned. The economy is way down the list to Obama when he is funding loosing companies to further himself.
