Hello.. Sarah Palin has got more executive experience!!

John McCain picked inexperienced and unpopular Sarah Palin as his running mate to surprise many. Her resume in short - four years on city council, six years as Mayor, one year as an oil commissioner and 18 months as Governor. Republicans fine tuned their experience argument by saying Barack does not have executive experience to lead the country. It is no more experience but executive experience. It is out in news that Sarah Palin applied for passport only a year ago. In an interview, Cindy McCain responded to the foreign policy experience question from George Stephanopoulos. I am just pasting the transcript here.

STEPHANOPOULOS: But she (Sarah Palin) has no national security experience.

Cindy MCCAIN: You know, she (Sarah Palin) — the experience that she comes from is with what she’s done in the government.

And, also, remember, Alaska is the closest part of our continent to Russia. So it’s not as if she doesn’t understand what’s at stake here.

The news media is so biased and have commentators, who get their talking points from their respective campaigns. Comedy Central and late night shows are the source of actual political news these days. I watch Daily Show with John Stewart whenever I can. He has a great team that puts news into perspective and he has a way of presenting that no one in the business knows. I am pasting a video in which he criticized Karl Rove, Bill O'Reilley and Dick Morris maintaining double standards. It is a good one!
