"War is Peace"

In the Orwellian world of the Bush administration the way to not have a war is to start a war before someone else starts a war. This actually seems reasonable to many people. The current name for this way of thinking is The Bush Doctrine. Should Sarah Palin be penalized for not being familiar with the term, even though she believes in its essence?

• As a citizen of the United States she should know what The Bush Doctrine is.


• As a governor of the state of Alaska she should know what The Bush Doctrine is.


• As a mother of a son on his way to Iraq she should know what The Bush Doctrine is.


• As a candidate for vice-president of the United States she should know what The Bush Doctrine is.

Not knowing the term The Bush Doctrine makes Sarah Palin ignorant. Believing in the essence of The Bush Doctrine makes Sarah Palin immoral.

“Ignorance is Strength.”

“War is Peace.”
