she has time to go to Ebay-as a governor, mother of 5, cookie baker, pistol-packing mama...oh, and what is she going to do with the money she gets from the plane? Did she even say?

God, this is so fucking weird...never have I seen such a lack of respect for the office of the presidency. I thought Bush took the cake on that one, but damn, could you even have imagined this shit?

1. Yes, it all shows a lack of respect for the presidency.
That was what saddened me most. This VP pick has made a mockery of the whole process.

3. That's John McCain's economic policy.
Remember a few months back when he mentioned the growth of ebay as a sign that the economy was doing just fine?

5. She said she didn't need the plane, it was too cushy and luxurious.
She would rather drive herself around Alaska.

Interesting. Here I was thinking Alaska was bigger than Arizona, but Cindy McCain says the ONLY way to get around Arizona is by small private plane...

6. the only way to get around majority of Alaska IS by plane...only jets won't work (gravel runways).
