Ageism and Public Service

I understand this is a tricky situation here. I've known people who experienced serious cases of ageism in the workplace, and it's wrong. If a person can do a job, then they should be allowed to do that job.

However.

In regards to the supposed "leader of the free world," I am going on record as saying that John McCain is too old and his health too much in question for him to be elected President of the United States. I would say this even if his running mate was Bill Clinton, George Bush, Mitt Romney, Joe Lieberman or Mike Huckabee.

The fact that his choice for Vice President can run a hell of a PTA meeting, gut a moose and govern a state with more reindeer than people makes my belief even stronger.

Here's the facts, Jack.

I don't think these are facts that can be spun or otherwise made to be positive. Just my opinion. I could be wrong. I'm getting old, you know.

Brilliant

If you haven't seen the Tina Fey as Sarah Palin on SNL, you've got to watch this. Bloody brilliant.

If you have seen it, watch it again.

I hope Palin is flattered. Tina Fey nailed this impersonation.
