Both political parties use manufactured "outrage" ginned up by their leadership in order to increase turnout in elections.
The Republicans have now made an entire convention based upon this most childish, ignorant and unfortunately usually effective political tactic.
To be "outraged" over questioning a questionably qualified person for the Vice-Presidency is the height of fake, plastic phony outrage. You have to be a complete ignoramus to be moved by this.
I not only question Palin's ability to be President, I question her ability to be Vice-President, which especially with Cheney has become a critical job. Cheney is now on a critical mission in the Caucasus. Could Palin credibly even think about such a mission??
To be outraged over that question is to question the very reason for a free press in this Republic.

Well said. Unfortunately there are lots of people who will be moved by it. And if they aren't right wing talk radio will make sure they get outraged quickly...
