Ugh at Sean Hannity. So I'm riding with my dad to get something to eat, and he's listening to Hannity's radio show. This guy makes you want to jump out of your car. He loves belittling Obama and the Democrats in general:
"Iran is a tiny country and it's a threat"
"Will cut military spending"
"Troops terrorizing civilians"
"cut n defeat"
"No to nuclear energy"
The list goes on and on. The man also seems to be General Motor's spokesman too. :lol

Sorry , but even in her excuse/explanation it is clear that she does believe in Gods involvement, that He has plan that apparently involves fighting a war. God is not really fond of war, I am pretty sure that was made clear between "thou shalt not kill" and "turn the other cheek"Cooter said:

First off, I'm a Republican. It's heartbreaking to see this happening.
I am not a heavy follower of politics, but I at least know what the bush doctrine is. For a second after the questions was I asked I sort of had a "Jeopardy" moment, but I came up with the answer. She clearly did not know what the bush doctrine was. That will be in front page stories tomorrow.

Wow, the Gibson interview is surprisingly good right now. :lol

will make for a good debater. she can say a whole lot of nonsense that means absolutely nothing, but has the perfect soundbites for the media.

The sad thing is , that alot of these people seem disgusted by/laughing at almost everything that Christ stood for.
Perhaps they have a J.C. that is a bit more assertive? You know the kind of man that would be a NRA member and rather shoot then talk and reason?

How will she negotiate with terrorists if she can't even give an interview? Americans should be scared for their safety under this VP.

Yeah, she didn't know what the Bush Doctrine was. That should create a bigger splash than it will.

Yeah this interview is starting as a trainwreck for her. That "Bush doctrine" question was extremely telling.
Not to mention Gibson asking her what, exactly, does Alaska's proximity to Russia do for her foreign policy credentials.
Her answer? "Well, we can SEE Russia from our state."

I literally laughed out loud when she started saying you could see Russia from Alaska. How stupid is she to even play into that line of reasoning one bit.

Matthews hit it on the head when he said that many women look at her and say "she doesn't know it all right now but she'll learn," totally giving her the benefit of the doubt. She's got the lowest negative numbers out of all four candidates and has been totally teflon this entire week. He also pointed out she's sort of at the stage Obama was at before the primaries got real heated and he was brought back down to earth
In short, leave her alone outside of issues based jabs and focus on McCain
edit: what the fuck, she actually said she could SEE Russia when asked what the proximity had to do with anything?
Cooter said:
maybe.. and I try not to ,what do you call that in English? Polarize? a whole section of a nation. But to me some of this is as bad as extreme moslims and their Jihad. I was raised a Christen and I am far from a good one, but alot of the ideas republicans/conservatists(sp?) have is pretty dang foreign to what I have been taught and quite scary if you consider they bring these ideas and values in their politics and into the rest of the world.
Edit: thread going to fast lol. I will let this go now
OuterWorldVoice said:
Yes. To my eyes this interview could cost McCain the election. If she is this bad after being prepped for an entire week she is definitely going to get ripped apart as the election continues. The debate is going to be a bloodbath.
The questions aren't even surprising. These are questions that she would have had to have known were coming and she is barely capable of answering them.

Yeah, religious people do that.
I still don't get the shock or surprise. Christians like to be aligned with what they view to be God's will. That's the hope anyway - and that sentiment goes for wars, flying in planes, and driving on highways.

you know Congress said we should use diplomacy and measured speech first before talking about going to war. But I said "Thanks, but no thanks" to diplomacy

You guys are making a bigger deal out of this than it is. If her inexperience and corruption scandals didn't stick, neither will this.

Welcome beautful toddler, Madison Elizabeth, to the horde!
Glad the rest of the country will see her as a dunce that doesn't know anything.

You are being too pessimistic. No, this alone probably won't torpedo the entire campaign, but is this an indicator of what's to come?Frank the Great said:
Maybe she can catch on real quick. Maybe she can just adapt her smooth talking skills without really learning the issues 100%. However, I've always been extremely skeptical of those out there who honestly thought that some "crash course" was going to bring her adequately up to snuff.
She is going to have to prove that she's qualified to be where she is at some point. Eventually, there will be a sink or swim moment. The Gibson interview isn't it, but it will come.

It doesn't matter.
I will be really surprised if the Obama campaign makes a big deal out of it. I will be more surprised if the media does.
Steve Youngblood said:
Oh, I totally agree that this is a good indicator of what will happen at the VP debate, but we all knew this already. I just don't think this interview itself will turn any heads.
I don't see how Georgia being in NATO is a good idea.
I think keeping them out of the NATO house leaves options in regards to how to respond if they happened to be attacked again. There would be no binding obligations of formal association, but we would still have the options that include whatever our expected response would be if they were a part of NATO.

The problem with the concept itself is that it's an absolute. There should be no absolutes in government. Historically, hard-edge absolute government does not work.
And what she's saying now is a blatant backtrack over the clear meaning of her original statements.

I think she would have done herself a much better service if she said, "You know what, Charlie? As you might have heard, I'm a bit new at some of this stuff. Could you remind me what the Bush Doctrine is?" Charlie would have laughed, America would have swooned, and the whole thing would have been defused pretty much instantly.
WRONG MOVE, PALIN.
