Hugh Hewitt has a post at Townhall.com<\/a> this morning talking about the attacks on Sarah Palin by the fringe (and not so fringe) left.  It is unbelievable.  He also talks about her record on reforming government.  If (according to the Democrat talking points) she has no experience, how come she has accomplishments?  If Barack Obama has experience, where are his accomplishments?<\/p>\n

Also, on the RedState<\/a> blog, there is the joking comment by the former Democrat Party Chairman Don Fowler that the hurricane headed for New Orleans demonstrates that ‘God is on our side’.  When millions of people’s lives and livelihoods are at stake, joking is not appropriate.  Michael Moore sees the hurricane as a sign that there is a God in heaven (see Business and Media Institute<\/a>).  I believe Americans have more class than to put up with that kind of trash talk and stupidity. <\/p>\n

Let’s talk about the issues and changes that we need to make to strenghthen our economy.  Let’s talk about energy independence in an achievable way.  Let’s talk about pork-barrel spending and government waste (under Republicans and Democrats).  Let’s talk about the money “borrowed” every year from the Social Security Fund and spent on other things (Congress opted out of Social Security in the 1960’s– so they don’t really have a personal reason to save it).  Let’s look at how Barack Obama spent the money in the Annenberg Challenge.  Let’s look at what John McCain did with earmarks over his years in the Senate (he NEVER sponsored one).  Let’s look at how Sarah Palin governed in Alaska.  Let’s look at Joe Biden on spending.  These are the questions we need to be discussing.  Let’s look at the record–not make silly statements and attack people for no reason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
