Sarah Palin as George Bush

[Joanne98]

In a polemic penned by George Bush's former speechwriter, Sarah Palin attempted to define Barack Obama as her equal and John McCain as above them both, while avoiding any subject of substance.

Sorry, Sarah, that husky don't hunt.

Palin's (Matthew Scully's) speech revealed a surprising parallel to George Bush -- albeit with phonetic care given to the correct pronunciation of certain words -- in her bid to become vice president to an aging politician with a history of health problems amid a pointed lack of relevance to the issues at hand and a cynical willingness to distort the truth.

The RNC talking points/heads are now questioning the media for pointing out that Palin's speech was written by Bush's former speechwriter (who'd only met her a week before).

What about the Democrats, they charge; are you asking them who writes their speeches?

The answer, in the case of Barack Obama, at least -- as he was the focus of Scully's speech -- is that Barack Obama is the primary writer of his speeches, a point the RNC has made many times in their attempts to denigrate his abilities as both a writer and speaker.

1. Jon Stewart did a great bit about her speech...in effect saying she was reading it straight from

Wikipedia...but changing some of the facts to sound better for the repukes.
