Sarah Palin is a
Disaster in Waiting
By Joan Burnie

Record" -- -I
AM going to burn in Hell. Well, I suppose it's one way of
keeping warm this winter.
This is what will happen to me because of my words last week on
Sarah Palin, the Republican's candidate for vice-president.
According to my critics, I only had a go at Palin because she's
a Christian. No, I had a go at the woman because she is
potentially more destructive than the Large Hadron Collider.
I'll leave the CERN boffins, when they've finished playing with
their new expensive toy in Switzerland, to argue with her over
whether God did or didn't make the world in six days.
The problem is that with Sarah in charge, it could be unmade in
six minutes flat. For, should the elderly Senator McCain become
president, Palin is a heart beat away from the nuclear button.
All the rest, from the lies she's told, such as maintaining she
was against a ruinously expensive bridge in Alaska when in fact
she campaigned for it, to her views on sex education, which have
resulted in her state now having the highest rate of chlamydia
in the country, aren't our problem.
That is the US's business. Let them deal with it. Except,
America also treats the rest of the world as its backyard in
which it can - and does - interfere at will.
That is why Sarah Palin, with her rigid belief that God and the
gun can solve everything, scares the lipstick off me.
Meanwhile, Obama and Co seem paralysed, unable to attack her,
lest they be accused of sexism and being nasty to a girlie.
Furthermore, there are some dames, not all of them hard-line
Republicans or even Americans, who think Palin should be
supported simply because she's a woman. That, my deluded loves,
IS sexism.Click on
