The Be-All, End-All Definition of Unqualified

Moving to the top of the list of Sarah Palin's disqualifies: her weird word salad answer about nuclear arms, which came out this way:

” Uh, nuclear weaponry, of course, would be the be-all, end-all of just too many people and too many parts of our planet so those dangerous regimes again cannot be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons, period.”

Here's the video, or what we might call the "ick" in "maverick."

Ask yourselves: do you want this mentality in or near The White House?

I'd be even more bothered if I could figure out what exactly she was saying. Her sentence structure would baffle Yoda.

Part word salad, part fractured talking points/cramming confusion, part inate stupidity.

Just how many nuclear deaths would be OK?

Not particularily. But, we should be accustomed to it by now.

Can you spell, "A", "l", "G", "o", "r", "e"?

Some Gore quotes:

"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet".

"there was never any doubt in our minds that men and women were equal, if not more so."

"He (Bush) is proposing to privatize a big part of Social Security and he's proposing to take $1 trillion, a million billion dollars out of the Social Security trust fund and give it as a tax incentive to young workers."

and, closer to home "I'm very familiar with the importance of dairy farming in Wisconsin. I've spent the night on a dairy farm here in Wisconsin. If I'm entrusted with the presidency, you'll have someone who is very familiar with what the Wisconsin dairy industry is all about."

"A zebra does not change its spots."

And, with a little web searching, I'm certain there are many, many more examples.

To be fair, Quayle had his share, and Bush has had his share too. I'd venture a guess that Clinton, Reagan, Ford, Carter, JFK, ..... have had their share as well. And, Biden has probably screwed up a couple also.
