Sarah Palin to Gain Foreign Policy Experience by Standing Near Foreigners
:rofl:

"Hey, here's an easy way to get foreign policy experience, if you happen to be a humble Alaskan hockey mom with no foreign policy experience: Just spend an afternoon at the United Nations!

That place is jam-packed with people from other countries. Foreign countries...

Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin will meet with foreign leaders next week at the United Nations, a move to boost her foreign-policy credentials, a Republican strategist said.

Republican candidate John McCain plans to introduce the Alaska governor to heads of state at the opening of the U.N. General Assembly, although specific names weren't yet firmed up. "The meetings will give her some exposure and experience with foreign leaders," the strategist said. "It's a great idea."

I'm sure Sarah Palin will have plenty of insightful, stately things to say to these leaders."

6. Or if this had been a male Republican candidate.
It dawned on me this evening at work. Sarah Palin is allowed to get away with being an idiot. Any man, Republican or Democrat would never be allowed to act like this big of an idiot. A man with her qualifications/or lack of would never be considered as a running mate.

5. Or she could just try to get a hotel room with a view of the UN building
And she could get all the financial experience she needs on a taxi ride down Wall Street.
