Well lets do a small comparison: Just curious were you aware of Obama's previous executive experience in which he was given $110 million to spend on Chicago schools to improve them from last in the nation? I would assume not since the CAC's own investigation into their results found they had little or no impact. On the other hand Palin negotiated a nearly $40 billion pipeline running through Canada (requires negotiations with Canada) with terms so good for Alaskans that people told her initially that it could never be done. PS - A highly edited daily show video isn't exactly giving me the context of the comment, it gives me the context that John Stuart finds is most funny. Considering he is a liberal I think we can both agree how useless the video is at providing the context for the comment. And of course Kasz has already pointed out more of the context anyways.

Negotiations with Canada to get a pipeline through their soil? You're kidding me right? How hard must you pissed off the Canadians before they walk away from negotiations? Alaska is rediculously wealthy in oil, with an extremly low population to the point where taxes aren't even a big deal. Just how much executive experience do you need to run Alaska? I won't mention the scandal everyone else has mention about her which you already know.
That clip shows John McCain calling for the UN to draft up a resolution which is precisely what you wanted to know, context or not. And Kasz merely interpretated the context, as did I. The facts are, both called for a UN resolution for the situation in Georgia but the thing is, it currently is not their responsibility to start calling up actions. Bush is still president, like it or not, and it's his administration's job.
