There's an even more devastating scandal that the DailyKos has uncovered about Bristol Palin,
she colored outside the lines in kindergarten.

Polygraph them all!
Next, they'll be wanting Mrs. Palin and her children to take polygraphs. Tim Russert would love it bless his heart!
I was thinking Obama would withdraw before Palin. 
Obamanation really showed what they're all about in attacking this young girl. The world is watching.

No, not jealous. Sorry but I don't understand what you are getting at. I think she is an attractive looking woman with unattractive views and opinions.
I am not from your country and I understand that the perspective you have is different to mine. I would not bother to comment on this matter except that the leader of your country becomes the leader of the free world, of which my country (due in no small way to your country and for which we are forever grateful) is a part. Therefore, the team you choose to lead your country is important to other countries (such as mine).
I am also a conservative but conservative does not necessarily mean pro-life, creationist and seeing Al Queda under every bush (sorry about the unintentional pun).
I can understand why people would vote for McCain over Obama but his choice of VP running mate just reeks of opportunism ... and what if he croaks and she gets her hands on the key?
It is scary to the rest of the world when an American (potential) leader believes god is on their side while islamic leaders believe god is on their side while hindu's believe god is on their side and every other religion believes god is on their side and Putin is gradually showing that communism wasn't the problem after all, it was Russian arrogance and aggression. I have a real worry that the potential leader of the free world is more interested in playing in a game that is not the main game.

I can understand that view and if I was faced with such a choice I would agree with it.
I guess you are referring to the god-pilot who made those outrageous speeches when you mention the black supremacist but (and please excuse my ignorance here as I am a long way away) who is the terrorist Obama is supposed to be in bed with?
You use the term liberal democrat in a derisive manner, have you ever considered that politics doesn't have to polarise in the manner it does in your country?
There are many countries around the world where politics are not divided along those lines and the populace benefits from same.
The USA is supposed to be a secular society but would it ever be possible for a successful presidential candidate to not reveal his/her religious beliefs or lack thereof?
So much of your politics seems to revolve around religion rather than the benefit to the people.

It hasn't been a secular government in a long time, Fraze. Suppose to be, but it isn't?

The terrorist is one William Charles "Bill" Ayers. In the 1960s and 1970s he was a radical activist. In 1969 he co-founded the militant radical left organization 'Weatherman' which was active during the 1960s and 1970s and was one of its top leaders. The name was later changed to Weather Underground when they went into hiding. In today's world they would be classified a domestic terrorist group as opposed to radical militants.
During the 1970s the group conducted a series of bombings against the U.S. government and symbols of authority, bombing federal buildings and police stations - including the U.S. Capitol bldg. and the Pentagon. In 1970 three members of the group were killed as a bomb was being constructed. According to Ayers the bomb was "destined for the Fort Dix army base in New Jersey.
Today Bill Ayers is a professor in the College of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He is married to Bernardine Dohrn, a fellow member of Weatherman. In 2001 he was quoted as saying "I don't regret setting bombs" and "I feel we didn't do enough", and, when asked if he would "do it all again" as saying "I don't want to discount the possibility. That has led some to dub him the Unrepentant Terrorist.
Barack Obama has ties to William Ayers. As you might guess, the vociferous and on-going argument between the left and right centers upon the exact nature and depth of that relationship.
As to the polarization of politics in our country I am of the firm belief that it's something that's intentionally whipped up and the flames fanned by our mainstream media. They do themselves and the citizens of our country a great disservice. They have squandered the great gift of a free press given to them by the Founding Fathers. They should act as the gatekeepers of vital information for the citizens but instead use the citizens as tools to sell their products (news) which in and of themselves have become nothing more nor less than big business. Many no longer put much faith in the things they say. That is the biggest tragedy of all - that we are left to question a free press.
The politicians also take advantage of the flames fanned by the press because when people are bickering over inanitites the lens is taken off the real problems - namely worthless leaders on both sides of the aisle and the halls of govt. from one end to the other filled with corruption, waste and just downright unworthiness. The approval ratings for our U.S. Senate currently stand at 9% - and yet three of the four candidates in this Presidential race are from the Senate. It makes no sense.

I don't trust Obama. I am a conservative. I am also a small business owner... The Democratic party doesn't give a damn about small business owners.

I am a believer that freedoms (such as freedom of the press) do not exist without responsibilities. The press in my country seems to accept little if any responsibility for the freedoms it has.

When I was a young man I was very pro labor party (like your democrats I guess). My father said to me that my idealism was admirable and that I would vote labor until the time that I owned my own business and then I would vote liberal (our conservative party) and never even consider voting labor again.
... and that is exactly how it has happened!

I'd probably vote conservative in your country. In our current election the democrats are moderate and the republicans are neoconservative and right wing, imho.

Yes, lol. Obama has repudiated those radicals and kept them in check. I was hoping McCain would do the same with his party but alas, he's pandering to them, imo.
