    "That some should be rich, shows that others may become rich, and, hence, is just encouragement to industry and enterprise."

    -- President Abraham Lincoln - 1864


    "The supply-side claim is not a claim. It is empirically true and historically convincing that with lower rates of taxation on labor and capital, the factors of production, you'll get a bigger economy."

VP Palin, Tina Fey Separated at Birth?

You be the judge.
UPDATE:  Catch Fey on Saturday Night Live as Palin here.

Obama Supports Infanticide, But Palin is “Extreme”

NARAL launched its attack this afternoon on pro-life VP candidate Sarah Palin:
“John McCain’s choice of Sarah Palin as his running mate proves just how rigid and extreme his administration would be when it comes to a woman’s right to choose,” Keenan said. “For 25 years, McCain has opposed a woman’s right to choose, and we [...]

AG Bob McDonnell Praises Gov. Sarah Palin

Governor Palin: The Right Choice!

Friends,As we pack our bags for Minneapolis, Senator John McCain just went a long way towards packing his bags for the White House! Today he announced that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin will join the ticket as the Republican candidate for Vice President. History has been made yet again this election cycle. [...]

Frederick Praises McCain’s Selection of Palin

Frederick: McCain “hit it out of the park” with selection of Palin as running mate
Alaska governor has more executive experience than Obama and Biden combined
Minneapolis, Minnesota (August 29, 2008) — The maverick senator who has shaken up Washington has picked a maverick governor who has shaken up the status quo in her own state. The [...]

AP Headline: “Analysis: Palin’s age, inexperience rival Obama’s”

The Palin Trap continues to unfold and ensnare more Democrats:
“On his 72nd birthday, is this really the one-heartbeat-away he wants to put in the White House?” said Rep. Rahm Emanuel, the No. 3 Democrat in the House. “What does this say about his judgment?”
What does it say about the judgment of the ENTIRE DEMOCRAT PARTY [...]

“Zero” Foreign Policy Experience For Palin? Wrong Again, Barry!

What is it with Dems’ lack of knowledge of basic geography?  Barry Obama’s claim of 57 states and not knowing which states Illinois borders on.  Gov. Timmy!’s lack of knowledge of which states Virginia borders on.
Today, the claim by Team Obama that GOP VP nominee Sarah Palin lacks foreign policy experience as the Governor of Alaska [...]

Palin slams it out of the park!

If it had been Romney or Pawlenty I would have left the GOP forever.  That speech just rocked the house – folksy without being too much so, smart, funny, loyal!  She is everything in the world McCain needs: NRA member, pro-life, union member, WOMAN! 
 
Any baloney that Obama/Biden (Obama bin Biden) tries out in the ”inexperience” realm will backfire in [...]

Dems Fall Into the Palin Trap

I love the Dems’ reaction to the selection of Governor Sarah Palin’s selection as Sen. John McCain’s running mate. Here’s a sample of what they’re saying:
She’s too inexperienced!!!
(Oops! Their guy doesn’t even HAVE exec. experience and has been in statewide office for LESS THAN 4 years himself — and he’s running for the TOP of [...]

The Palin Homerun

Palin is conservative, has executive experience, is a Mom of 5, has a son serving in Iraq, is pro-life, is a small government R, is a fresh young face, and is likely to appeal to some undecided women.
One reason the Palin choice is brilliant is because as mentioned yesterday, there is no primary baggage with this [...]

Lee Talley – The Great Prognosticator

A commentor on Virignia Virtucon correctly predicted Senator John McCain’s choice for Vice President over 6 months ago.
On February 7, 2008 Virignia Virtucon posted the following:

It’s Palin

In case we forgot to mention. It’s all but official now . . .McCain has selected Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate.

THIS is the way you unveil a VP running mate!

Comparing how John McCain and Barry Obama went through the process of rolling out their respective VP candidates, it is clear that McCain knows how to do it and Team Obama are rank amateurs.
Obama promised to send out his selection via txt msg first to his supporters.  That message and formal announcement finally went out [...]

Romney and Pawlenty OUT!!! Palin and Cantor Still Standing!!!

The late frontrunner appears to be Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, but don’t count out VA Congressman Eric Cantor just yet.  No one knows his current whereabouts, either.
Also on the mentioned short-list, Joe Lieberman, Tom Ridge, Rob Portman and Bobby Jindal.  The problem with Jindal, of course, is that he is currently busy preparing Louisiana for [...]

Obama Blows Opportunity To Say What He Stands For

Another broken promise from Barry Obama.
Barack Obama, whose campaign theme is “change we can believe in,” promised Thursday to “spell out exactly what that change would mean.”
But instead of dwelling on specifics, he laced the crowning speech of his long campaign with the type of rhetorical flourishes that Republicans mock and the attacks on John [...]
