Biden vs. Palin (foreign policy) reminds me of a quote from "Sex and the City"
Edited on Thu Sep-18-08 03:31 PM by LynneSin
Ironically it was an episode about 20-something girls vs. 30-something girls.

Samatha Jones, the seasoned publicist, was firing her inattentive, annoying assistant who thought she knew it all and could do it herself. The assistant made the following quote: The difference between you and me was that you waited in line at Studio 54 and I waited in line at Studio 54....THE MOVIE.

Ultimately in the end experience won over but I swear everytime I hear stupid quotes about how Sarah Palin knows foreign policy because she's 'close to Russia' that quote keeps popping into my brain.

Joe Biden has LIVED foreign policy. He's made the travel, met the people, done the homework and has had a major influence on foreign policy throughout the globe. But Sarah, well like that snooty 20-something assistant, Sarah's foreign policy comes from 'watching the movie'. Being able to see Russia from some remote island in Alaska that is probably over 600 miles away doesn't count for foreign policy experience. Neither does repeating cute quotes written to you by RNC speechwriters.

If you want to know the history of Studio 54, I would highly suggest you contact someone who was actually there and not some cheesy movie they made. And if you want Foreign Policy experience you want the expert. Joe Biden is that expert all Sarah can claim is that she 'Watched the Movie'

6. Nina G was the name of the assistant
Perhaps we can introduce her to someone who has the crabs

If you haven't seen the episode you won't understand the joke.
