Video Title: (Mcchrystals Enormous Mistake) Video Duration: 3:13 From: HosseinToufanpour Category: News and Politics robert gibbs declines to say whether gen. mcchrystal's job is safe in the wake of his controversial comments. parties support obama's decision to replace mcchrystal by perry bacon jr. wednesday, june 23, 2010 3:49 pm members of both parties on capitol hill backed president obama's decision to replace stanley mcchrystal after the general and his staff disparaged members of the president's national security team in an article in rolling stone magazine. obama named gen. david h. petraeus to replace mcchrystal as commander of us and nato troops in afghanistan. "i appreciate the bravery and service of general mcchrystal, and i understand and respect the president's decision concerning general mcchrystal," said sen. john mccain r-ariz., one of the leading voices in congress on defense issues and often a vocal critic of obama. "i applaud the appointment of general petraeus." sen. john f. kerry d-m., chairman of the senate foreign relations committee, also signaled support.

on november 20, 2009, sarah palin visited columbus, oh as part of her book signing tour for "going rogue." when her supporters were asked broad questions about why they why they thought she should be president, the responses were vague: she's "real." she'll "stick up for america."
it has been said comments that you would find similarly talking point-driven, substance-less supporters at an obama rally, and we agree. but no politician has emerged on the national stage as undefined and unqualified as sarah palin, and her public persona which is anti-intellectual by definition discourages substance. instead, we get winking. one could hardly imagine her giving a complex speech about race in america, or speaking eloquently about our country's relations with islam. not just because she couldn't write such a speech obama has speech-writers, of course but because she wouldn't such necessarily academic discussion is anhetical to the persona she's created for herself and that her supporters have come to love.
