Sam Harris on Sarah Palin and Elitism

OmegaRED · Sep 21, 2008, 04:04 AM

"Governor Palin, are you ready at this moment to perform surgery on this child's brain?"

"Of course, Charlie. I have several boys of my own, and I'm an avid hunter."

"But governor, this is neurosurgery, and you have no training as a surgeon of any kind."

"That's just the point, Charlie. The American people want change in how we make medical decisions in this country. And when faced with a challenge, you cannot blink."

Gotta love it...

I thought that "Bush Derangement Syndrome" was bad, but dang, "Palin Derangement Syndrome" makes BRD look mild.

What's next? Are the libs gonna start saying that they would rather have 4 more years of BOOOOOSSSSSSHHHH, than Gov. Palin as VP?

Come on libs, just what IS it about Mrs Palin that has you acting like a room full of vampires seeing a crucifix???

Many people can look past partisan politics and see through the spin, give it a shot for a while, I promise you the world looks a lot clearer when you remove those foggy glasses that only see Red and Blue.

Anyway, Sam Harris is one of the "Four Horsemen", the foremost Atheist thinkers of today, I'd hardly call him liberal.
