Mike Huckabee just mentioned Palin got more votes winning the mayor position in Alaska than Biden got running for president
Interesting, since Huckabee doesn't believe in mathematics.

If it's appropriate, I'd like to see Biden open up on her and just stomp her.  She's running for the VP position.  If she wants to sit at the grown-up table she better be prepared for someone like Biden.
Palin is a feisty girl, so don't worry about that.
How do you know? 

I'd love to make a list of everyone who knew about Sarah Palin or even heard about her before April 2008
Why do you think she got the nickname Sarah "Barracuda" in High School? Why do you think a politician(forgot who) said about her"The Land is filled with the bodies of those who have crossed Sarah Palin"?

Wut?

Seriously, no one's heard of her.

True, but I am quite sure she is a good person and the right pick for McCain

More of a blog than an article if you ask me.

If you're gonna hate her for anything at least make it be something that matters, like her very religious conservative beliefs.

military spending is a good thing.  our military spending is under 5% of our GDP and it helps our economy as well as secures American interests overseas.  The pursuit of those interests allows you and I to enjoy being members of a stable and affluent society.
I think the biggest problem people see with military spending is how wasteful it seems. If they were producing results at the same efficiency as say a Fortune 500 company, I don't think it would be as big of an issue.
No one ever said the military was a "for profit" company. As for efficiency, there's no other military in the world that is as efficient as ours at what militaries do.

In fact, our military is one giant socialist paradise. And that aspect is what costs far more than the military hardware (housing, salary, medical, etc).
Wasteful in R+D, that's where most of the budget goes. So I don't see how your reply makes much sense.

Complain to Congress...they're the ones who force the wasteful acquisition mechanisms on the military.

And I'm not sure that the bulk of the money goes to R&D. In fact, personnel costs are (I believe) the largest portion of the annual defense budget, followed by operations and maintenance. R&D is typically multi-year, so the annual costs per program are lower than funding people and operations for any give fiscal year.
