Mr. Letterman pressed Mr. McCain on Ms. Palin’s preparation for the office of president, and asked whether she was “the woman to lead us through the next 9/11 attack.”

“Absolutely” she is, Mr. McCain said. “She has inspired Americans. That’s the thing we need.”

I think I'd prefer a president who prevented the next 9/11 attack. Apparently, McCain thinks it's inevitable.

As someone at Americablog noted, Sarah couldn't lead us through a 7/11.

3. No, John--I'm sure what you meant to say

was that "Sarah is ready to lead us INTO another 9/11".

6. ...whereas Obama will PREVENT the next 9/11

7. McCain is just full of BS.

After all that's come out about Sarah Palin, who would believe that crap? She can't even name what periodicals she reads, for goodness sake.

8. Welcome to the Mccain/Palin Prophecy hotline. End of times, press 1,

Eternal Wars, Press 2.......and so on and so forth.

Freudian slip, yea - that's what it was.

9. She'd launch her own 9/11 against everyone who thinks differently than she does

[glitch]

10. So does that make Letterman a LIHOPPER or a MIHOPPER? nt

:P

11. Scare the people into supporting him, and using 9/11 as a political tool.

Very nice.

12. Seems to me that she's more likely to cause another 9-11....

or worse.

14. Sarah Palin couldn't lead a horse to water

She'd shoot it first

[pdxmom]

15. He makes himself look like an even bigger fool every time he says things

like this. The majority of this country doesn't think Palin could lead us to the corner with a road map, much less have the qualifications to take us through a crisis. People aren't believing it.

17. Fully qualified to sit there looking stunned in a classroom

while their minions work out how to keep them away from any of the actual decisions, yeah.

[sofa king]

18. She could lead us TO another 9/11.

She's got exactly the same qualifications and thinking skills as the President who already did.
