Chris Matthews Calling out the Republicans.



The Republicans have put out their two talking heads and Chris Matthews calls them on the fact that neither of them have ever raved about Palin before she was put forward by McCain to be the Vice President. He, rightly, says that all this raving about her now is simply politics.

This is what I find so awful about Republicans, they really would follow anyone - and defend anyone - as long as an (R) came after their name.

Michelle Malkin and the far right loons at least were aware of Sarah Palin as she is as reactionary as they are. But the rest really are just sheep, loving her and clapping her because that's what they have been offered. Dreadful people, simply dreadful.

And the most idiotic point has to be that "no-one had heard of Barack Obama four years ago".

That's the point. Barack Obama wasn't on the ticket four years ago. Only a true moron could fail to see the difference. Had Sarah Palin been doing what Barack Obama did four years ago, and simply be introducing herself to the Convention, we would be this morning recognising her as a face to be watched amongst the Republicans.

The fact that this unknown, with a string of really extremist right wing views, is running to be Vice President next to a 72 year old man is simply terrifying.
