No Experience Required

Do you need experience to hold a public office? Well, evidently that depends if you are a Democrat or Republican. If you are a conservative, you better have YEARS of experience. But if you are a Democrat, and especially if you happen to share DNA with a former President, then you get a Free Pass.
Such is the case with Caroline Kennedy. She has zero experience that qualifies her to be a US Senator, yet, to the left and the liberal media, that doesn’t really matter – in fact, don’t even bring up the fact she has no experience. While I don’t have an issue with someone wanting to become a US Senator, I do have an issue with the Double Standard applied to Ms. Kennedy vs. that applied to Governor Sarah Palin.
When Governor Palin was tagged to be Vice President, the left along with their allies in the liberal press launched a relentless attack against Palin, going on and on about her lack of experience and that it spelled absolute disaster upon Senator John McCann’s death – some even using insurance actuary tables to predict McCann’s death date to highlight what a dangerous situation it would be for the country if the totally unqualified Palin assumed the office of the President.
While I understand the office of the President has much greater responsibility than that of a Senate seat, I don’t understand why Caroline Kennedy’s complete lack of experience isn’t even mentioned by the left or the liberal press.
But I guess the lack of experience standard doesn’t apply to liberal democrats. After all, look who’s about to become President.
