Post debate wrap-up...

I am sure I could go on about many aspects of the debate, however instead of doing that, I will post what I feel was the most disturbing non-answer by Sarah Palin.

"Say it ain't so, Joe, there you go again pointing backwards again. You preferenced [sic] your whole comment with the Bush administration. Now doggone it, let's look ahead and tell Americans what we have to plan to do for them in the future. You mentioned education and I'm glad you did. I know education you are passionate about with your wife being a teacher for 30 years, and god bless her. Her reward is in heaven, right? I say, too, with education, America needs to be putting a lot more focus on that and our schools have got to be really ramped up in terms of the funding that they are deserving. Teachers needed to be paid more. I come from a house full of school teachers. My grandma was, my dad who is in the audience today, he's a schoolteacher, had been for many years. My brother, who I think is the best schoolteacher in the year, and here's a shout-out to all those third graders at Gladys Wood Elementary School, you get extra credit for watching the debate,"


That was her response to a question about education reform. That is all I have to say on the subject.


-Cheers

Strangely, this answer was my favorite.

Mostly, because I watched it over and over again, and laughed.

She's ridiculous. I kept yelling at the TV and Stew was like "Let her finish"...to which I responded, "she's yet to finish a sentence AND make sense at the same time." Who gives a shout out during a Vice Presidental Debate? Seriously poor form.
