- NoDrama, on 09/04/2008, -4/+9The fact checkers are ignoring that Palin didn't even write it... we still have more questions than answers about the first term Governor of Alaska, folks
- LKnight, on 09/04/2008, -2/+3Already this was dugg down? Somebody's running scared in the wake of Palin's performance. Are the paid McCain folks policing us this morning?
- vexingmodstwo, on 09/04/2008, -7/+2Obama doesn't write his own speeches. Jon Favreau does.
Is this all you have? That she has a speech writer?- JekJob, on 09/04/2008, -0/+4Again, ignoramus, he wrote all of the major speeches that he has given, included his convention speech. Go away, nobody wants you here.
- JekJob, on 09/04/2008, -0/+1I agree that not writing her own speech is a fairly weak argument (even though it shows that she doesn't have enough knowledge of the issues to write a coherent address). But even on such an insignificant level, you're STILL wrong! I can prove you wrong at every turn.
- NoDrama, on 09/04/2008, -0/+2Actually, Obama writes many but not all of his speeches - some he merely outlines, then lets somebody else work on before he puts on the finishing touches, that's true - yet it misses the point.
The point is, praising Palin's "speech" isn't praising her thinking or writing, but only her delivery of somebody else's work. That is a marked contrast, since you bring up the comparison, but I was only referring to the fact that it doesn't really reveal much about her beyond her ability to read a teleprompter.
It isn't, you see, her own SPEECH; it's Palin's speaking that we were allowed to observe.

- kmom5, on 09/04/2008, -0/+4Yes, I believe you are correct. As a matter of fact, he and was fine tuning his nomination speech last Thursday evening, or so the pundits said. I know that he wrote 'A More Perfect Union'.
