Energy expert? Really?

Palin suggest wrongly Congress bans oil exports

Since her knowledge of energy issues is supposed to be what she is bringing to the ticket, why does she come off quite often sounding like she doesn't know what she's talking about? I mean this is the lady that McCain said "knows more about energy than probably anyone in the United States of America". Really? You almost had me fooled.

The more they let Palin out of her little protective media bubble the more clear it is that her choice for VP was purely political and not in the best interests of this country, which speaks volumes about John McCain. It shows that despite all the double-speak about putting "Country First", he really isn't. He's putting winning a presidential election first, and they way the election is trending it looks like the people are starting to catch on.

It really is too bad McCain had to sell out to try and become president. He shouldn't blame Obama or the Democrats or the people that aren't supporting him though. He should blame his own party who nominated the talking monkey George Bush in 2000 when clearly McCain was the more qualified candidate. Hell, I would have probably voted for McCain in 2000 since I wasn't a huge Gore fan and actually liked McCain quite a bit. Just imagine how different this country would have been had Bush not been the Republican nominee. I'm sure McCain would have had his missteps as president, just like any president does, but in 2000 before making his hard move to the right, McCain was definitely much more competent to run this country.
