Palin is still of interest to and admired by a significant

I haven't seen any of them.


Some of them are right here in rec.boats, denying their love and
admiration for the Palins, and how the Palins have contributed as much
to this country as the Kennedys and Bidens.

Get over yourself, Harry.

According to you John McCain is a genius, he has a college degree, from
the USNA. He did manage to graduate 895 out of 899 in his class of 1958.
He did cause several near international diplomatic incidents as a junior
officer. John McCain isn't much better than Palin's if you are capable
of taking a look at it objectively.

That's all true but I always cut him some slack because of his POW
experience. Palin and her tribe however are just another bunch of
low class individuals with no real excuse for it.



Is Bertbrain saying I think McCain is a genius? Never said or implied
that. So, McCain was 895th in his college class? Gosh, what was
Bertbrain's academic standing after his four years of college. Oh, wait.

No matter. There are plenty of interesting, creative, successful
people with no degree at all. It would only take a minute or two to
make a large list. It's what you do with your education and knowledge
that counts.

Maybe BA for a first degree, but multiple liberal arts degrees? Waste.

Why did FDR put Joe Kennedy in charge of Wall Street? Because he was the
most successful crook?


Three of Joe Kennedy's sons died in the service of this country.

.. well one anyway.

JFK was mostly serving himself and RFK was a disservice to the
country.

I think Viet Nam would not have been what it got to be if RFK had not been
killed. Also would not have had Carter.

Never seen Huckabee, Cruz, Santorum et al?

I was talking about people who spend any inordinate time watching
Palin. That really just seems to be liberal democrats.
In reality I have not seen much of Huckabee, Cruz and Santortum (AKA
"Frothy") either.


The Palins are just more colorful and intelligent.
BTW, I've been watching mostly CNN, and they covered Palin's spat
repeatedly.

Like I said liberal democrats.

And they're all over the huge terrorist attack on Canada now.
Maybe it's time to protect that border and militarize it.
What happened to the ISIS punks and big bad Ebola?
Damn, I just know what to be afraid of.

CNN is the Crisis News Network but I can't see them now (They had a
falling out with Dish) so I was switching back and forth from Fox and
MSNBC for a while today
It was "We don't know what the hell is going on in Ottawa and we will
keep saying so all day" too.
The only thing different was different talking heads.

So far this is looking like one nut with a gun, who was shot pretty
much right away. Everything else just seems to be hysteria taken as
fact
The more Canada wants to say they are different, the more they seem to
be the same.

I think what has them scared, is a couple days ago there was a terrorist.
New Muslim convert who ran down a couple soldiers. Maybe related?

It is easy to try to guess what someone might have done but Bobby was
to the right of his brother when it came to communists. Who knows what
he would have done, if elected. It was Bobby who decided an illegal
wire tap on MLK was in the national interest because he thought Martin
was a communist..

Bobby was no stranger to illegal wire taps and "sneak and peek"
warrantless searches tho. He was ordering them from the JFK DoJ too.

He was known to dislike escalating VN. Knew it was a no win situation.
Maybe he learned from the Cuban Missile Crises. Never said he was honest,
or even would have been a good President. But most likely we would not
have been mired in SEA.

Nice try. Bertbrain was the one who tried to make an issue out of
McCain's college class standing, not me. Bertbrain didn't have a college
class standing.
