Now with spell check?

Apparently not always the case…

Rove chimes in

“In case anyone was still wondering whether John McCain is running the sleaziest, most dishonest campaign in history, today Karl Rove — the man who held the previous record — said McCain’s ads have gone too far.” – Tommy Vietor, Obama campaign spokesman.

Thanks for the clarification

So here it is… McCain explains why Sarah Palin isn’t qualified to be next-in-line to the presidency and she, in turn, explains why John McCain doesn’t represent change.

This was John McCain, late last year on why he was qualified to be the president:

I am prepared. I need no on-the-job training. I wasn’t a mayor for a short period of time. I wasn’t a governor for a short period of time.

And here is Sarah Palin last night on why she is ready to be a 72-year old heartbeat away from the presidency:

Charlie, again, we’ve got to remember what the desire is in this nation at this time. It is for no more politics as usual and somebody’s big, fat resume maybe that shows decades and decades in that Washington establishment, where, yes, they’ve had opportunities to meet heads of state.

Founded in 1942?

Sarah Palin, answering a 2006 policy questionnaire for the Alaska 2006 gubernatorial race:

Q: Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?

A: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.

Good enough for the founding fathers? The Pledge of the Allegiance became the official pledge of the United States until 1942. The words “Under God” were not in the Pledge. They would not appear there until 1954.

No actual responsibilities

Pssst… He was a liberal too.

An ounce of truth

“Listen, mayors have the toughest job, I think, in America. It’s easy for me to go to Washington and, frankly, be somewhat divorced from the day-to-day challenges people have.” – John McCain
