The first time I read this quote, I thought it was dangerously true. Then I really started pondering it and thought how would this apply to our own lives/careers? Let's look at it again to see how absurd it is.
You couldn't get a job at McDonalds and become district manager after 143 days of experience.
You couldn't become chief of surgery after 143 days of experience of being a surgeon.
You couldn't get a job as a teacher and be the superintendent after 143 days of experience.
You couldn't join the military and become a colonel after a 143 days of experience.
You couldn't get a job as a reporter and become the nightly news anchor after 143 days of experience.
BUT....
'From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United State Senator, to the time he announced he was forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days of experience in the Senate.
That's how many days the Senate was actually in session and working.
After 143 days of work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World, and fill the shoes of Abraham Lincoln,FDR, JFK and Ronald Reagan. 143 days?
We all have to start somewhere. The senate is a good start, but after 143 days, that's all it is - a start.
AND, strangely, a large sector of the American public seems to feel comfortable with this and campaigning for him.
We wouldn't accept this in our own line of work, yet some are OK with this for the President of the United States of America ?
Come on folks, we are not voting for the next American Idol

And remember he's been marking every single day in office with a brand new earmark of 1 million dollars![:-]

But, remember, he said that he has ran his campaign for the last 18 months and that has prepared him to become President...[:'(]

Matt/NC welcome to the fun on this forum. It is perfectly allowable to gag when you read some of the commentary from the resident leftists. I must warn you it will be impossible to drill any sense into the head of cradle democrats by rationalizing with them. They take their marching orders right from Howard Dean.

Funny though that some praise the Repubican VP candidate from Alaska on state matters when Obama was a United State senator voting on issues that affected people nation wide.

LMAO. When the V.P. runs the country, we can compare them. I love how all you Obama fans are proving the point that experience matters. Yalls front guy is being compared to the Republicans #2. I love it.
Now you really got me laughing with the above bold type, Obama voted???? For what? Oh yea attendance. How does voting 80% of the time present, make you a decisive leader. I love how the Obama crowd makes the case for the Republicans. Like Palin said, you cant vote present while making executive decisions. Lol.

Perhaps I was getting ahead of myself. Lets just hope McCain stays healthy if he is the new president, I shutter to think Palin could become president.
RE: Some food for thought for you Obama supporters!!
At least she has executive experience. Obama lists his running for President as experience. How funny is that?
Didn't Obama's city of Chicago have more murders than Palin's state of Alaska (largest state in the U.S.)last year? I could be wrong as I don't have stats in front of me, but suppose it could be true, and if so, how pathetic is that?
