Kos: Palin's a creationist
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/8/29/111428/917/148/578527

"Now we see McCain's pick of Quayle Palin, and it's clear that he was forced to kow-tow to the Huckabee/Dobson wing of the Republican Party. We already know she is virulently anti-choice. But did you know she is a creationist?

The volatile issue of teaching creation science in public schools popped up in the Alaska governor's race this week when Republican Sarah Palin said she thinks creationism should be taught alongside evolution in the state's public classrooms. Palin was answering a question from the moderator near the conclusion of Wednesday night's televised debate on KAKM Channel 7 when she said, "Teach both. You know, don't be afraid of information.

Two years ago, Palin was part-time mayor of a village of 7,000. Today, she's supposedly ready to step in to run this country in the eventuality that Sen. McCentury can no longer perform those duties? Right. This was a sop to the Right, which was unwilling to accept a pro-choice Republican on the ticket, and a pathetic and hilariously desperate effort to grab the 17 holdout PUMAs (who are fake Democrats already willing to vote for McCain anyway)."

3. Say goodbye to the independent vote, McCain...
Creationism is one of the few issues that make independents go apeshit angry.

6. Hey, quit picking on poor little
Sarah "I Was A Beauty Queen And Have Five Kids!!!" Palin. She was probably christianhomeschooled and doesn't know any better.

I still have a beef with her though. She hasn't served her country.
