Sunday talk show tip sheet

Updated for Sunday,08/24/08

If Sebelius was already booked for a Sunday talk show, why the hell did the media continue to report that she was a front-runner for the VP choice?

Oh ... and why in the hell is Caroline Kennedy qualified to choose our eventual President? That would be like someone becoming the Senator of one of our largest states that she doesn't even live in based on having been cheated on while picking out the White House china.

I know but they released this list "before" Biden was picked.

Life is full of mystery..who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of the media?..

Again questioning peoples qualifications. What does it take to decide if you like someone or not? Are you qualified to vote? Why? Do you have a background in voting properly? Did you vote for Bush twice? Should you lose your voting privilege until you learn how do it right?

So I guess that means you can't really give me any reasons why Caroline Kennedy is qualified .

I mean, is it because she's the last one standing?

Is it because she once served as her uncle's intern ?

Oh wait, she is a lawyer. She told the lawyer to choose a lawyer. It's all making sense now. Left wing lawyers are conspiring to take over the world. I wonder if 'The Brain' has a law degree?

What does it take to be a qualified member of a search team? I want to know. Is it again that you need to be a politician? Your kinda afraid of people who aren't full time pols huh?

If this is her first time at it she did well. I like the pick. In fact it was my pick a while back. But who am I. And what are my qualifications.

But if there were issues unknown to the public, she could find out and kill the idea of him being nominated...

That's the difference between you saying "I'd pick that person." and a person running background checks saying "That person clears our findings."...

The question is "was Kennedy (and anyone else doing the checks) qualified enough to dig deep enough to ensure there are no skeletons that could come out between convention-time and election time?"...

Was John Edwards vetted?...Did C. Kennedy (or others) ask Edwards for clarifications?...Did she have him "staked out" or other investigations?...

Stuff like that is crucial...If she or her committee said "John...Did you have an affair?" and John said "No" and the conversation went no further, imagine what the situation would've been like if Edwards didn't come clean before the VP pick and Obama actually picked him...

Not only would it have been horrible for the campaign, but it would show that Kennedy was a complete failure in the vetting process...

Of course, we'll never know since Edwards faced the music before Obama had a chance to make a VP pick official...

Maybe when you pick a team to help pick a VP nominee you chose people from a wide variety points of view. What difference does it make f she was one of the members. I could see where you might have a case if they chose some moron. But they made the best pick available. They did well. Its like complaining that someone is rookie after he hits a homer.

Oh my ... it was really just a passing comment. It just struck me that she's never really accomplished anything of note, and is just a famous name Obama wanted to associate himself with in some way.

Its the same for Condi Rice. She s famous for being Condi Rice. She has failed at every job she has held in the government. And now as Sec of State our international relationships are strained. She is supposed to be a Russian expert. I guess thats why we have so much better relations with Russia then we did under Clinton for example.
