Yet More Palin Derangement Syndrome

This is good news, no? Even if he dies (cancer doesn't kill you over night) Sarah Palin will still have better positions and more experience than Obama. What's not to like? A symbolic martyr, and the first woman president? Or is Palin just an honorary male chauvinist pig in lipstick?

And what are the chances that "Peace for Our Time" Obama will get Americans killed in his first term?

I hope Gennady Stolyarov II, RoR's own actuary, comments on this article.

Hey, Luke, how did he get that title? He has yet to work as one. Click on my name and see my description.

Per this post, GSII has prepared for working in that function. So I should have said "actuary in training" rather than "actuary" in my prior post in this thread. Frequently, graduates from engineering school call themselves "engineers" rather than "engineers in training" although the latter represents the legal term if they have yet to pass the proper state examinations.

My label "RoR's own actuary" came to mind because I recalled his post but I missed yours in that thread, so I see now why you posted this news item.

I meant no slight to you or your occupation with my post.

Funny to see liberals advocating so strongly age discrimination

Michael:

That's an interesting observation. In one hand, concern over McCain's age can simply be an expression of interest in the future of the country, while in the other, it can be denounced as "age discrimination". Aah, the beauty of the PC age where everything is relative.

Apology accepted, although it wasn't needed. I wasn't upset or anything like that. I was merely surprised you picked a "wannabe actuary" over a real one and the author of the gallery item.
