Sarah, Sarah, Sarah...


It must be Palin day. First, Fiorina says Palin is qualified as Veep but not running a business.

Fiorina: Palin is not qualified to run a major business.
Huffington Post reports that McCain spokeswoman and former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina, appearing on a St. Louis radio show today, said that Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) was not qualified to run a major business — but that it didn’t matter:
QUESTION: Do you think [Sarah Palin] has the experience to run a major company, like Hewlett Packard?
FIORINA: No, I don’t. But you know what? That’s not what she’s running for. Running a corporation is a different set of things.

Update: This afternoon, she reiterated her comments on MSNBC, this time clarifying that Sen. John McCain or any other presidential candidate — couldn’t run a major corporation either.

Update 2: Obama campaign spokesman Tommy Vietor responded: "If John McCain’s top economic advisor doesn’t think he can run a corporation, how on Earth can he run the largest economy in the world in the midst of a financial crisis? Apparently even the people who run his campaign agree that the economy is an issue John McCain doesn’t understand as well as he should."

Next, Jon Stewart said Palin is the Bush Doctrine.



Daily Show: Sarah Palin IS the Bush Doctrine
Stewart: “Now I know her detractors will say that Palin actually supported the bridge until it became a political albatross and ended up keeping a lot of the money for it anyway; That she claimed to have visited Iraq when she really didn’t; Or that she didn’t really sell that plane on eBay; Or that she left the town she was mayor of $20 million dollars in debt; And that she made sure that women who were raped were charged for their rape kits.”
[Audience boos]
Stewart: “Yea. Yea, it’s f*cking true.”
[…]
Stewart: She doesn’t need to know the Bush Doctrine — she is the Bush Doctrine. Her foreign policy experience consists of being able to see Russia from an island in Alaska. And a refueling layover in Ireland.




Also, a JL Reader that posted on one the Palin article on the blog created a website on Palin. Website is www.thesarahpalinportal.com.
