Being right on energy qualifies as national security experience? And it's ok for Palin to charge taxpayers for 312 nights spent in her own home as long as she fired the chef (yet another unemployed American) and sold the jet?
The overarching theme throughout this video is McCain's difficulty in straying from the set script... He stutters and garbles and becomes incoherent as he brings it all back to some completely irrelevant topic, because he can't think on his toes. And a large portion of this country thinks he is fit to lead? If he can't make a split-second decision about rhetoric, what would he do if confronted with a 21st century version of the Cuban Missile Crisis?
Meanwhile, Bushie's onto attacking Pakistan, even while "[i]t is unclear precisely what legal authorities the United States has invoked to conduct even limited ground raids in a friendly country." Because, well, why not?

The legal authority for running raids into Pakistan comes from our 2001 declaration of war against Al Qaeda. (Disregard, as our country has, that in international law Al Qaeda is not a group that can actually be at war.) The problem with American legal authority for this is apparently just that the White House and Pentagon don't want to have to tell our Ambassador in Pakistan when we're doing this. Of course, Pakistan could decide to capture our guys and give them whatever they have coming under Pakistani law regardless of whether it's legal under American law.
But I obviously agree with most of everything else on the blog.
