9/4/08 - Sarah Palin officially nominated into VP position

If you were watching the lackluster Republican convention, you already may know that Sarah Palin has officially been nominated in to candidacy. It seems odd that the same GOP that is quick to ridicule secularists or leftists for lack of experience and touch with American society, but they now seem to be the most out of touch.

It appearantly isn't clear to the public that the RNC has taken at least as much contribution money from corporations as the democrats.

"We are the gun toting, god fearing, flag waving"

"We know the only place Senetor Obama wants to drill is your wallet."

Marcia Blackburn, congresswomen, spoke on behalf of the RNC. She claims that Obama simply wants to tax us and that will cost us more money, but when you look clearly at what Obamas' tax plan says, he has repeated clearly that you will actually be paying less taxes if you make under $250,000 a year, you will only be paying more if you make over $250,000 a year, which it can definitely be argued that many people who make that much money are currently paying sometimes little to no taxes thanks to all the loopholes in legallities based around issues in tax payer resources.

I don't know about you, but I don't see how that scares most people. Most people I've met don't even make $50,000 a year, so why would that tax plan scare them so much. Now the other part of the equation is whether we need those taxes or not. In some cases, we may...considering that the Republican administration of the last 8 years has surely been the costliest period for our economy and American blood.

No true American is gonna be ok with bloodshed for no good reason, although whether we like to believe it or not, those people do exist America that don't care whether someone dies or not, it's a fact, no country is full of perfect people.

It just begs the question, with an RNC that seems to be coming off as the usual my way or the highway rhetoric. Trying to increase police state activity. They say they want less government, but then they want to tell us how we should live our lives if we are nonconformists. I mean look at the military oil usage.
