Read your own post, you asked waht foreign policy exp does she have..... you did not ask what makes her an "expert". I pointed out foreign policy experience, I never said she was an expert. Again, what foreign policy experience did the "Messiah" get while he was organizing his community..........  |

Let me clarify my argument. Living near a foreign country does not qualify as foreign policy experience. I am not arguing that Sarah Palin has more (or less) foreign policy experience than any other candidate. Any comparisons to other candidates are simply 'red herring' fallacies. Read your own post, you asked waht foreign policy exp does she have..... you did not ask what makes her an "expert". I pointed out foreign policy experience, I never said she was an expert.

I beg to differ 76..... living near a foreign country DOES qualify as foreign policy experience. Did GWB have a relationship with Vicente Fox of Mexico prior to being President? YES. Does Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano have a relationship with Mexican President Calderon? YES.
How often did Hussein Obama meet with foreign leaders while he was livin' on the Southside???

Actually I want to add my 2 cents. I believe a Gov has more foreign policy experience than a congressman or woman. If you look at the deals they work out with foriegn countries for trade issue and negotiating investments, they deal with those folks more often. It is not a congressmen or womans place to deal with foriegn countries, it is the Presidents. Congress makes the laws, the President enforces and the courts ok them.
The one point that I also think we have missed is that the current Presidents aproval ratings are a dismal less than 30%.......Congress is less than 20%. The economy is bad, but who deals with that...Congress, a democratic congress. Did anyone else notice that as soon as W resinded the execuative order on off shore drilling.....oil prices plummeted??? Just curious.
Palin is the only leader of change in this election and I am so thrilled that the media keeps comparing our #2 with the Dems #1......McCain is the only one in this election who actually faught for your rights to post our opinios here. He can't lift his arms because of the tourture he endured. He is a hero.

Very good 72!!!!! One needs to look no farther than how many trips Mitch has taken overseas to work deals for Indiana. He's met with more foreign leaders than Barry could even name (without the aid of his portable teleprompter of course).

Palin has had to maintain good relations, including trade, with at least two foreign countries as governor, Canada and Russia. Her duties also included fostering increased trade and diplomatic relations with other countries as well. What foreign experience does Osama have aside from vacationing in other countries and making a speech or two in Europe recently?
