Under the Constitution, the opinion of individuals outside our borders, who typically have a combination of ignorance of American affairs or outright ill will (they see the US as an enemy and want the nation to do badly, or to become weak and serve their country), have absolutely no weight at all. dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-3337392132885904422013-03-14T22:39:09.645-04:002013-03-14T22:39:09.645-04:00I don't think that Palin OR Mrs. Obama should ...

As part of learning to read carefully, scroll up to your comment where you specifically bashed me as a "catty sour puss" over something I had said about Hillary. Then scroll above that and find where I had said one single thing about Hillary.<br /><br />Big "oops" huh? I expect crickets. I can't recall the last time Shaw owned up to something like this.<br /><br />For those who are still too lazy, I will be glad to repeat my completely Hillary-free comment and the subsequent insult based on my statement about Hillary contained there in.dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-25916692464313427892013-03-14T13:50:42.627-04:002013-03-14T13:50:42.627-04:00For both, ahem, dmarks and skudrunner: Can you pl...For both, ahem, dmarks and skudrunner: Can you please at least learn to read carefully. Please. Nowhere do I say MO should run for any public office. RN posted the item where that is discussed. I then commented that Hillary was quite popular with Americans and even worldwide. Aside from that, she's qualified to run for the presidency.<br /><br />I said nothing of the sort about MO. I even stated that she's too talented to run for the vice presidency, meaning she should use her intellect and experience of Washington at some point to do something ground-breaking.<br /><br />Both skudrunner and dmarks jump to conclusions and assign to me things I've never written. That's sloppy and lazy.<br /><br />Please stop.

In fact, her resume and experience and qualifications are sufficient for this.<br /><br /> I was however pointing out MO's very thin resume and low qualifications for being a "Heartbeat away from the Presidency". Objectively, worse than Sarah Palin.<br /><br />Your own statement about Michelle alludes to this fact, Shaw. She hasn't run for public office, nor does she has any of the very important experience which comes from winning such elections and being a Senator, governor, or even mayor of the smallest town imaginable.<br /><br />I know over at "progressive erupts", you guys think I am Skudrunner. Perhaps that is your excuse for slamming me over Skud's criticism of Hillary when in fact I said nothing.dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-32059207283598704732013-03-14T00:42:23.459-04:002013-03-14T00:42:23.459-04:00Can't say these two would be my choice for the...Can't say these two would be my choice for the position(s), because of differences on philosophy, limits on the power of the federal government, and the it takes a village concept you understand.<br /><br />Having said the above, Effectiveness does seem to be a trademark of these two women. Of course Hillary has shown her qualification however how did you arrive at your assessment of the First Lady's qualifications? And just how does one have "to much talent for that', public office/vice president?<br /><br />As for Sarah Palin, she is not nearly as "dumb" as some progressives make her out to be. She just isn't cur out for prime time politics. Guess FOX must have arrived at that conclusion as well.Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-71258358730399794392013-03-13T20:59:32.669-04:002013-03-13T20:59:32.669-04:00"We love Hillary!
