Side By Side, Palin Vs. Obama

Here is one of those side by side charts that compares the Republican vice-presidential candidate, Gov. Sarah Palin and the Democrat presidential candidate, Sen. Barack Obama.
It is bound to drive the lefties insane. Judging by what I have been reading in the blogosphere, some of these lefties need to get their rabies shots. BTW, that is NOT for you Right Wing Snarkle! You are genuinely mild in comparison.
Since being mayor of a "small town" does not seem to matter to the Obamiacs, let us go down the list of those successful, big city Democrat mayors.
I can start right here in California.
San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom. He is really special on my list of successful Democrat big-city mayors. You know how he solves the illegal immigration problem? He dumps convicted illegal alien criminals in other counties in California. Until he gets caught. Then he does the "all the others do the same thing" defense. Oh yes, it is the same Mayor Newsom who takes his marriage vows so seriously, ask the former Mrs. Newson, Kimberly Giulfoyle, that he led the fight to have the California state supreme court to find a mythical right for same-sex marriage.
Oh, and let me tell you about the homeless in San Francisco. Why, they have more rights than, well illegal aliens. That's right. It is a sanctuary city!
Los Angeles Mayor, Antonio Villar another winner. He gets more face time than, well, President Bush. Oh. and he too thinks a sanctuary city is just swell. And, he is pushing for one of those county-wide sales tax hikes. To fund transportation projects in the CITY OF LOS ANGELES! So, since there are not enough people to tax in the city of Los Angeles, spread it out over the whole county.
Chicago mayor Richard Daley. Wait, that would be a whole post in and of itself. Corruption begets corruption. A Daley begets another Daley. And the corruption stays the same. Correct me if I am wrong, but did not a certain state senator come from Chicago? Why of course, Barack Obama! Enough said.
Two of my personal favorites are New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin of Hurricane Katrina fame. As I write this another hurricane is potentially barrelling onto New Orleans. Another bad one. This is the same mayor that let school buses sit there during the evacuation phase before Katrina and did nothing to get those out of harms way before the storm hit. Then the storm hit and all hell broke loose. He lost any control of the many people trapped in the Louisiana Superdome and the Convention Center. While not many of the sensational events did occur, it was clear that this man was way in over his head. And yet, this guy gets REELECTED! Amazing!
The top o' the list has to be the "hip-hop" mayor of Detroit, Kwame Kilpatrick. I mean, he is a great dresser, yet he just does not know how to keep his lies straight. And by golly, while jobs and businesses in droves leave Detroit, once one of the United States largest cities, he finds time to be hookin' up and trying to cover his tracks. I mean, this guy has been in jail not once, but twice. Way to go, man.
Yea, I guess I kind of like "small town" mayors who stick to business, cut taxes and still provide services. Wasilla, Alaska may not be Los Angeles, but somehow it has been a truly great place to live and work. And some of that is the direct result of leadership provided by former mayor Sarah Palin. Hmm, what did Barack Obama do during all of that "community organizing"?
