2. Of those choices, #8
You describe yourself as a fiscal conservative. How can you reconcile that claim with the $10,000,000 (insert correct amount) deficit you created and left for the town of Wasilla, AK, a town of only 5,000 (insert correct number) people, during your term?

9. I guess my mind just would wrap around that number. Meth capital, huh?
Wonder if Palin's prospective s-i-l is involved in that scene?

6. What's your idea of a perfect sunday?
Or perhaps something more hard hitting like, "do you like me? If so check yes and I'll meet you after study hall!"

8. "Do you believe that Jesus Christ will rapture you from the earth when the nukes are launched?"
Seriously, I went to high school with right wingers who literally believed this. They thought it was great when Reagan was ramping up the nuclear arms race with the Soviets, because they were convinced that once the nukes started flying, Jesus would step in with Operation Holy Evacuation.

And Tundra Barbie's dominionist extremist snake handling tongue wagging church seems like the type who would believe that.

And if you don't believe that YOU can be killed by a nuclear war, then you have no business having access to the big red button.

13. Explain why she is qualified.
Not, how she thinks she has more experience than Barack, or anything like that. If she can state her own credentials --without talking about Obama, that would be a good place for her to begin.

14. "If the vote in the Senate were tied, 50 to 50, on the subject of war with Iran...
how would you vote?

Then insert any other nation, Venezuela, Pakistan, North Korea, and ask her each of those questions, also.

16. Whatever is asked,
I hope there is followup. She'll just slide, spin, and lie.

They have to pin her down!
