Picture This: McCain's VP pick beats Obama's speech on Google Hot Trends

About 15 minutes after posting this, I saw alerts spring up that Palin has indeed been picked as the Republican vice presidential nominee.

You also have to figure that many of those who were looking up Ms. Palin were Obama supporters and people in the press, trying to find out her weaknesses, or simply find out who she was in the first place.

All this shows is that voters don't know Sarah Palin... but judging from what I have been seeing online today, voters are going to rapidly learn far more about her... about her attempts to deceive the Alaskan people as to her involvement in personally-motivated firings, her close ties to indicted Senator Ted Stevens, her support and flip-flopping for the infamous "Bridge to Nowhere", her attempts to force kids to learn creationism, her radical anti-choice stance, and support of forcing women who are raped or whose lives are at risk to carry a baby full-term, her ties to big oil and mining interests, her weak environmental record and opposition to legislation designed to provide safeguards preventing the mercury and heavy metal pollution of America's biggest sockeye salmon hatchery...

People searched on Sarah Palin... and found out a lot of things that John McCain would rather that they didn't know.

She took the easy road last night -- all she (and all of the speakers last night) do is fling ad-hominem attacks at Obama and Biden, without offering any substantive solutions to the many problems our country faces. I guess I can't blame her, because she has got to deflect attention from her extremist views which should be extremely scary to those who love our Country.

Unfortunately, the Corporate Media is so focused on ridiculous issues like her pregnant daughter and Down's Syndrome baby that they will never drill into her about anything of consequence.

But since we're playing that game, did you know Sarah was sitting in church (just a couple weeks ago) when guest speaker David Brickner said:

"Judgment is very real and we see it played out on the pages of the newspapers and on the television. It's very real. When [Brickner's son] was in Jerusalem he was there to witness some of that judgment, some of that conflict, when a Palestinian from East Jerusalem took a bulldozer and went plowing through a score of cars, killing numbers of people. Judgment — you can't miss it."

Where's the outrage? This is far worse than anything Jeremiah Wright said, yet we all heard about Jeremiah Wright for weeks on end!

And this is just the tip of the iceberg ...

what do you think about the war, budget ,trade, gun control?
