Sarah Palin

"Although this in itself doesn't sound particularly interesting, it does mean that in the (not unlikely) event of McCain's death - a right wing inexperienced fundamentalist Christian mother - who considers the war in Iraq to be a holy war, believes in creationism and that on death she is amongst those chosen by god and will ascend to heaven - would have her hand on the Nuclear button."

No, not at all, I think Gordon Brown is a fairly moderate Christian - he (unlike Palin) does not believe the earth is less than 10,000 years old, nor does he reject evolutionary theory on the basis of a fundamentalist reading of the bible, nor does he believe woman should have no right to chose an abortion (even in the case of rape induced pregnancy or life threatening complications) - nor does he subscribe to numerous other right wing Christian fundamentalist ideas.

Dude, I meant GW Bush. Yes, "we" was a bit unclear but he still has a lot of influence over my life even though he is not "my" president.
