Sarah Palin is a disgraceful VP pick

I don't know how else to frame it. Sarah Palin is from one of the most corrupt and mooching states in the US, she has no experience, is essentially George W. Bush in a dress but possibly even less informed and she is a candidate for VP of the United States. Let's go through various sorts of crazy scandals/facts about Palin

1. She would be the first VP in AT LEAST 40 years to have not met with a Head of State before being nominated for VP

2. She has lied about the why she fired Walt Monegan (Trooper Gate).

3. She lied about being against the bridge to nowhere and then kept the money even though it wasn't used for the bridge

4. Palin claims to be against earmarks (as does McCain) but Palin is in one of the most earmark laden states and Palin requested large numbers of earmarks as governor and hired lobbyist as Mayor of Wasilla (something no other Mayor of Wasilla had ever done).

She doesn't know what the Bush doctrine is, doesn't know what the VP does, is a pathological liar, least experienced person on a major presidential ticket in more than a century...phew. I could go on forever but let's leave it at her being an insanely terrible choice from the perspective of being a good human being or being competent at anything useful
