palin proves you can't fix stupid

Unfortunately for the libs, it's apparent that Palin would have done a better job than Obama. In fact, it's hard for anyone to do a worse job.

C'mon even I don't believe that....

Why? Obama has demonstrated that's he's an incompetent buffoon. Palin didn't get to demonstrate anything. She didn't do great on some TV interviews, but also wasn't asked softball questions like Obama.

So you have a known failure (Obama) vs. an unknown (Palin). Why would you be so quick to trash Palin?

It is a reasonable possibility that she would have been better. We'll never know.

oh, so now it's not apparent, it's a reasonable possibility? based on what? her term as mayor?
her abbreviated term as governor? what else is there?
softball questions. ha!

i'm quick to trash palin because she's a complete and utter joke. and she has no one to blame but herself for that opinion. she can't speak, can't string together a complete sentence, she has NO clue about anything that a leader would be expected to know.

Well Obama's failure was predictable from his 2 year stint as a Senator before running for president. This "community organizer" lacks just about every quality necessary to be president except for good enough ocular acuity to read a teleprompter.

Your guy strings together prose just fine as long as someone else writes it for him to read off the prompter, and hasn't had an original thought for his whole term. Saul Alinsky and other socialists have said it all before. He's a recycled retread.

and he's not 'my guy'. i didn't vote for him in either election, i thought he would do poorly. i don't think he had enough experience, i thought he was naive. his pronouncements on change and his talk of things he was going to do were scoffed at by me. apparently you either didn't read or you choose to ignore all that.
it's too bad tho, that people tend to forget all that, because i won't fall in line with their 'black or white' way of looking at things and will challenge the 'worst president ever' pronouncements, or because i explain you're putting way, way too much blame on one person. the same one person i said was dreaming that he could change things.
he, and we, are a victim of the system.

your bias dictates what you say on here. try looking at everything candidly, without preconceived notions. i'd also recommend you read history, it will help put things in perspective regarding what has come before-and how our current 'leaders' compare.
also, it would help you persuade if you didn't suggest such things as palin being 'better'. that's hilarious.

also, how much has been kept from being done, or undone, because of the House? repubs made no secret that their sole purpose since obama took office was to thwart everything and anything. to hurt him at every opportunity, for good or for ill. how does that help this country or its citizens?

what has he ever wanted that has been stoped? he makes it very clear.....its his way or GFY.

it is? how is it apparent? what would she have done differently with everything that has occurred during his term plus one year?

when i consider everything palin has done over the time since she first hit the national scene, what is apparent to me is that mccain and his people didn't perform due diligence before selecting her, that she is a lightweight who thinks her lack of intelligence and knowledge is somehow a positive. she has no clue regarding national policy, foreign policy, the government, etc. her interviews are hilarious, but certainly not events that engender confidence in any of her abilities.

am i happy with obama? hell no. i think he was a naive neophyte who has been smacked down in a brutal way with reality. would i prefer palin? not in a million years. romney either. christie shows promise, but with his moderate stances, he'll have a hard time getting the nomination.
you blaming obama for everything you don't like is not based in rational thought. i suggest you take a long look at your legislative body, especially the house, which has done NOTHING of substance-hell, they can't even pass a goddamn farm bill, which has been standard legislation for years.

If it's hard to do a worse job than Obama, the converse is that it's easier for most people to do a better job.

that would be incorrect. your logic is flawed.

Based upon his comments it is either a traumatic brain injury or trolling. I will give him the benefit of the doubt and say the later.

lol

joey, you're assuming it can't be worse. of course it can. also, just because you have a difference of opinion with the president, doesn't mean he's bad.
and i don't think you really consider everything that has happened, and are judging every occurrence on its merits.
i think you view people as good or bad based only on whether they have a 'd' or 'r' next to their name.
since many obama policies are continuances of bush policies, i'm not sure how someone can say bush did ok, but obama is bad. the only change in the last 5 years is the aca coming into being.
i know people don't like to be told this, but the individual mandate was a repub idea, and it was included in the bill-but because dems were putting it together, suddenly repubs rejected their own idea, that they had originially supported! that is a fact, not an opinion. one fact that repubs wish people would forget.

Care to explain why it's flawed? This guy will go down as one of the worst presidents ever, far surpassing in negative magnitude Bush 43.

yes. you have no idea how bad it could be. you're assuming it's as bad as it could be, that no one could do worse, and that anyone else would be an improvement. it can always be worse. however, i can't prove a negative, and hopefully we'll never find out how well or badly palin could do.
also, history dictates whether someone turns out bad or not. your opinion isn't shared by everyone, so there's no way of knowing if he's going to be judged so harshly.

you're also completely ignoring the fact that the president isn't the only person in charge of our government. you're placing no blame elsewhere.
