Seriously? Sarah Palin Calls Afghanistan 'Our Neighboring Country'
She made the geography flub while speaking to supporters
"They [U.S. soldiers] are also building schools for the Afghan children so that there is hope and opportunity in our neighboring country of Afghanistan."

It's obvious...
It's obvious, she meant that Afghanistan was the neighboring country to our 51st state of Iraq, although technically, this is not true either.
I.Q
I would like to know what Each candidates I.Q. is. McCain graduated 894th, ot of 899 graduates, after being saved by his parents,from being kicked out several times. Also don't you think if you were the first elected black president, you would do everything in your power to do well, so not to give african american's a bad name?
Sarah Palin's Inflammatory Remarks About Barack Obama
Sarah Palin obviously relishes her role as attack dog. But what shows through clearly is the essential ugliness of her soul. Her remarks in Clearwater, Florida, to the effect that Barack Obama is a "terrorist," as one man shouted in her audience, prompted another man to say "kill him!" That is one of the most reprehensible and irresponsible things a presidential or VP candidate can do.
She professes to be a Christian, but one command both she and McCain have broken is the one probiting bearing false witness against one's neighbor. Obama has put his life on the line throughout the campaign in a way that no other candidate because of the death threats and hate mail he has received due to his race.
If McCain-Palin ever won, there would be a lot of lasting ill will that would make it difficult, if not impossible, for them to govern effectively.
