A selection of readers' comments on Sarah Palin

Kaye writes: "I am a Human Resources professional and I would never hire Sarah Palin. She can't answer the tough questions. She falls short on the easy questions. She simply isn't qualified for the job of Vice President of the United States. In the Human Resources field, people who use their personality to persuade interviewers to hire them are called schmoozers. America, are we going to let Sarah Palin schmooze her way into the White House? John McCain manipulated us with his selection of Sarah Palin in his desparate attempt to win the presidency. That makes me nervous. Desparate people do desperate things. Thank you, Katie Couric for exposing Sarah Palin - the figurine."

Warren writes: "Thanks Katie for being able to disclose how incompetent and ill-equipped Palin is to become the VP."

HJSB writes: "It's a sad day in American history when we will prefer a white woman who lacks the education, experience, political savvy and is obviously not prepared to be Vice-President, let alone President to a black man who is well educated, has a proven record of experience and has a clearly defined vision to take this country to the next level."

Mia writes: "Very smart people led us to this mess because they know how to manipulate people, hey know the way to get out. Sometimes we only need a little knowledge and a good conscience to know what is right."

Nina writes: "I think less of Katie Couric and the company she works for. I don't believe hers is in any way good or correct journalism."

Lily writes: "McCain's decision to select Sarah Palin for consideration of the number two leadership spot in our nation speaks volumes about how emotional, irrational, desperate and misguided he is. I used to interpret his maverick behavior as a sign of his standing up for what he believed was best for the country even if it was at odds with his party. Wow, was I wrong. It turns out he makes decisions by the seat of his pants, without thinking things through or even thinking at all. That alone is reason enough to keep him away from the presidency, with or without Palin."

Bud writes: "Katie, do you ever look in the mirror or do you want the guest to be so intrigued with your eyes that they can't come to a complete answer before you throw one or two more?"

LovesAfrica writes: "Sarah Palin has a strong spirit of disobedience. Disobedience is a spirit that dwells physically in the body and the mind. Ask John Hagee [televangelist who believes Hurricane Katrina was God's punishment for homosexuality in New Orleans Hagee is a McCain backer]. Why Hagee is keeping silent about something like this I don't know. But he will have to answer to God for that someday. Sarah Palin's most important job is to take care of those children."

Crazy Quiche writes: "My issue with Sarah Palin is this 'hockey mom' mentality. She hasn't once made a reference to non-hockey moms. She hasn't tried to connect with minorities and that is scary. In my neighborhood we don't have hockey moms - we have basketball and football moms. It would have been better to say 'sport moms' and at least try to connect that way."

Shirley writes: "I don't feel so bad. I now believe there is someone who knows less about our country's issues than me. I hope the Lord comes soon if McCain and Palin are elected. We will all come to destruction before his term's over and God, Help us if Palin's becomes President. I think I will move to another country."

Pat writes: "Who watches Couric any more anyway? Talk about a dinosaur. No one needs bias in journalism and more and more the American people are seeing it. Palin has exposed it big time. The thing that the elite media and the feminists do not like is that Palin does not live her life as a victim."

Joann writes: "If Ms. Palin is an example of the type of person McCain feels is qualified to lead the country if he isn't around, I cringe to think who his other appointees would be. We must protect Skid Row winos and the mentally challenged from being forced into cabinet posts and advisory positions in a McCain White House."

	Ella writes: "If I was this ignorant about foreign affairs I would not admit it. I wouldn't run for the highest office in the United States, because who ever runs for Vice-President will President in the event the President dies. It embarrassing to women as a whole and our nation. I am for Obama. He is principled and knowledgeable."

	Anon writes: "At least Sarah had the guts to look the American people in the eye and say she only knew of marriage between a man and a woman, not like that grinning Biden who believes in gay marriage. The shape America is in now NO ONE will be able to change no matter how silver tongued they are. I was raised to believe that those with the gift of gab also has a forked tongue. Everyone thinks Obama can change the world... he can't. Beware of what you wish for ...you might get it."

Jason writes: "I have to ask how she was even elected to be the governor of Alaska. Was the other person really that much worse that they elected her to office?"

William writes: "Note to Sarah: I can see the space station from my house. No, that does not make me an astronaut."

Julia writes: "Bottom line, who could have said what the Bush doctrine is? Sarah talked about one and there were four different ones identified at four different dates and largley created by the media. It was a trick question that apparently even the interviewer didn't know the answer to . Also, I would be interested to see what the press and Saturday Night Live would have done if Sarah made as large a gaffe as Biden not knowing who was president in 1929 when the market crashed and not knowing that there were no televisions for the president to address the American people. Talk about ignorant!"

John writes: "I am one of those dumb people who signed a mortgage a couple of years ago and have lived in and out of foreclosure. And I am 43yrs old and have never voted, but this year is different. One year ago October '07 I walked into a church by accident and received the Holy Spirit made JESUS LORD of my life. So now I must vote and I'm sure OBAMA could help my pocket and give me something I don't deserve. But the BIBLE clearly say's a man must vote for righteousness and morals of a man. And OBAMA clearly stands not for immorality and sin, he simply does not stand against it period. I will live on the street and go hungry and die before I sell out to satin. THANK YOU JESUS!"

4Real writes: "Sarah Palin woman is a rambling moron. I'm sorry but i don't want someone who can't understand a law to break ties as to whether or not it passes. She called a children's author deep! I read C.S. Lewis' work in the 4th grade! I don't want someone whose only opinions on major issues are being read off of notecards. I want a VP who can read and speak at a college level. Palin is a joke. Obama has my vote!"

Mike says: "The McCain camp should send Tina Fey to the VP debate as Palin's stand-in. She'd do a far better job than Sarah Palin. Fey is intelligent. Palin is dumb as a dumpster."

TheWant writes: "Ding-dong, the wicked witch is dead. Back to your little Alaskan fiefdom. Go take care of your grandson. See if you can finish a sensible statement. Fight those Russian hoardes next door."

Readers Speak Out About Sarah Palin

Ruth writes: "How many of you liberals will be smiling when Obama introduces Sharia Law in America and you are forced to bow down before a God who is not American. At least with Palin we are free to worship Christ, the only God of all true and patriotic Americans."

Arlene writes: "I think that Sarah Palin is an insult to American women. She is unprepared and does not represent me nor the majority of women I know. I think if Obama was white he would be winning this election hands down. I am sorry to those that are offended by this but Sarah Palin is not ready and I do not see her ever being ready in the near future to be Vice-President of United States. Charm wins beauty contests and does not qualify you to be a V.P or President, or does it? So sad. I fear for our county if McCain and Palin are elected."

Phil writes: "I am tired of the attacks on Sarah Palin. She can do as well as the Idiots ln Washington who have done next to nothing on both sides except argue and finger point."

Venice writes: "Katie, I remember when you first started this job you have now you were terrible and you didn't know a thing about your job either. You crewed up many times as I can recall. So I don't think you should throw stones, my dear .Wake up America the media is biasd; they would rather have Obama as their leader so he can bring down our country. If he's elected you could expect the nation to divide like never before. Why is it not clear to the people of America that Obama has brainwashed the media for sure and a lot of americans . His well known so called friends are scary enough for me not to vote for Obama. If he becomes president, you will all see his true colors ."

Pat writes: "Each time I hear Sarah Palin interviewed, it reminds me of when beauty queen contestants have to answer certain questions. I think she would be more successful in that arena! I think it would be pathetic if the Republicans win. You think we are in trouble now."

Norma writes: "How did she become governor of Alaska? My 15 year old son would make a better vice president. Bin Laden is laughing at what a dummy McCain picked to run with him."

VK writes: "Watching Palin interviews are extremely painful. How does she not know she is way over her head? She should resign and really put "Country First."

Alysa writes: "Are ya having fun slammin' Sarah? I'm actually not voting for her, but man, are you guys slick."

Jerry writes: "Apparently a lot of people don't understand that John Insane McCain allowed the right wing nutcases to pick his running mate for him as part of his sucking up to them. Where Bush merely used religion to get votes, Palin is a true believer and would turn the country into a "Left Behind" miniseries!"

Ron writes: "You forgot one important weakness under Biden's column. He has been in government for 26+ years and look at where we are!"

Jersey Girl writes: "It's ironic how a less experienced female vice-presidential nominee gets more criticism than a less experienced male Presidential candidate. John McCain is way more experienced than Obama. That goes without saying. Why doesn't the press jump all over that? The fact that he is 72 years old does not faze me. His mother is 96! There once was a time when more mature citizens were treated with respect. He served our country well and has the scars to prove it. Focus on McCain's experience, people!"

Jackie writes: "This lady wants to be president more than vice president ..... McCain better get a taste tester."

Audrey writes: "We all know that McCain is not the youngest guy of them all. With that being said, do we really want Palin being his VP? I mean in this case I'd say she has a pretty good chance of becoming president if McCain is voted into office."

Colin writes: "The reason we have long primary seasons and endless campaigns is to find the very best candidates -- to allow the cream to rise to the top. It is obvious to everyone except the most biased and blind supporter that Sarah Palin is not one of the finest politicians and brains in the country. In fact, she's probably one of the most stupid public figures in the nation ... and I am a Republican."

June writes: "My god please voters wake up. Will you vote for someone who kills everything that lives and walks. If she has no feelings or love for wild animals how can you give your loved ones to her hands . If McCain dies she is the President of the United States. This country was built on foundations of love of life. Women are supposed to be loving, warm, compassionate humans yet this person is a con of all that. God help America if she gets elected."

Shela writes: "Who is breast feeding Sarah's new baby? I don't think she can pump enough milk to KEEP for her special needs child while running around for days doing interviews and campaigning for McCain! She should be leaking by now! I breast-fed four children so I know what it means to breast feed. I think she has put kids and family on the back burner while running around loving the attention she is getting. As far as Palin's qualifications for being our next vice President, all anyone has to do is listen to Katies interview with her for a short time and right away anyone with a brain is thinking "Oh my God she is not qualified to be our vice president!" I feel sorry for her family."
