		<description>lol Balance the budget in the first term? Has that twit forgotten that she, as former Mayor of Wasilla, left a 20 million dollar debt in her own state? 

Memo to Tiara Sarah: Step away from the koolaid please. The debt in this country is not the same as balancing your checkbook.</description>

		<description>Sarah is talking to the men only. Look even a dumb person knows this budget can&#039;t be balance in one term when Bill Clinton took two terms to balance the last budget and it wasn&#039;t this bad. Sarah is talking out of her butt because she knows many are just looking and not paying attention to a word she says.</description>

		<description>A much better time for a spending freeze would&#039;ve been January, 2003. Unfortunately the borrow-and-spend Republicans were in control and eager to blow money on invading Iraq. As I recall, McCain was very much with them on that issue.</description>

That is purely white of you!!

		<description>If there were a kind and just God? She would burst into flames or, at least, develop a bad case of laryngitis. And poor ol&#039; Flippy must be about ready to strangle her, and Bill Kristol, and anyone else who suggested her as a running mate.

BTW, C&amp;L has a story about her speech at a solar power facility. Apparently her call to &quot;drill baby, drill&quot; didn&#039;t impress the crowd.
