Sarah, Sarah, Sarah

Here is what I read in today's paper.  Sarah Palin said that America is looking for a change from the "hopey changey stuff" of the 2008 election.  What?  Is she two?  Then she said "...Don't allow anyone to to tell you to sit down and shut up."  In my experience, the only time one really wants to tell someone to "Sit down and shut up" is when the speaker is speaking like a two-year-old, and the listener has had just about enough of the babble

Palin cited the president's recent comment that America was the world's dominant military super power, "whether we like it or not."  By saying,  "We like being a dominant superpower, what kind of comment was that?"

This kind.  "It is a vital national security interest of the United States to reduce these conflicts because whether we like it or not, we remain a dominant military superpower, and when conflicts break out, one way or another we get pulled into them," Obama said. "And that ends up costing us significantly in terms of both blood and treasure."  This statement was made by President Obama to address the downside of our stature of being obligated to intervene in national conflict. 

So Sarah, read the whole article, or listen to the entire speech, or watch the entire news broadcast, before you comment.

And one last thing, "to see our nation be a more welcoming place for innocent life."  This is one of Sarah's aspirations.   Before I comment, what the hell do you mean by that?  Could you be more forthcoming and more specific?  I don't want to make an assumption.
