A speech without substance

From: annika1980 on 4 Sep 2008 14:42 Last night Sarah Palin made a speech which went 40 minutes but was short on issues. The one brief mention of policy was stolen straight from Barack Obama's DNC speech. Here's what Obama siad in his speech: "As President, I will tap our natural gas reserves, invest in clean coal technology, and find ways to safely harness nuclear power. I'll help our auto companies re-tool, so that the fuel-efficient cars of the future are built right here in America. I'll make it easier for the American people to afford these new cars. And I'll invest 150 billion dollars over the next decade in affordable, renewable sources of energy - wind power and solar power and the next generation of biofuels; an investment that will lead to new industries and five million new jobs that pay well and can't ever be outsourced." Now here's what palin had to say: "Starting in January, in a McCain-Palin administration, we're going to lay more pipelines ... build more new-clear plants ... create jobs with clean coal ... and move forward on solar, wind, geothermal, and other alternative sources." Is there an echo in here?

You need your hearing checked.

From: Damon Hynes on 4 Sep 2008 15:08 Here we go again, Annika, some people learn quicker than others. The VP does not set policy. He/she may help formulate it, but McC is running for presdent, the buck stops with him. Therefore, Palin perfomed the traditional role of attacking the opposition.

Palin gave the impression that she and McCain were Mr. & Ms. Bob The Builder. To be fair, though, they probably do have their hand in the infrastructure construction industry up to the elbow, but maybe not. -- Trev |
