We Would Rather Stay Stupid Then Get Smart?

I am beginning to think that the republicans have found their new George Bush. Sara Palin is emerging as a person who is always right and will step on anyone who disagrees. She has proven this point in her past positions as a mayor and governor. Sound like our current president?
This is just what our country needs, another George Bush or as she puts it, a pit bull with lipstick.
I'm sure this will bring real change to our white house. I just wonder how her and McCain will get rid of those lobbyists and special interest groups when McCain's campaign manager is one of the biggest lobbyist known in the business?
I saw an ad yesterday on television by McCain showing the excessive spending, the huge deficit, the mortgage crisis, etc. and linked it all to Obama! Now this is real change, more lies from the right wing like the lies that got us to invade Iraq and spend 10 billion a month with borrowed money. But the surge worked so all is better. After all my friends, we would rather win the war instead of win an election. Or is it we would rather stay stupid instead of get smart?
