    clearly this had nothing to do with the fact that she has little to say about anything, right?

    her lack of knowledge & experience is coming to light now..i'm afraid that the parades are over for our alaskan governor. too bad, so sad.

    PALIN: Every American student needs to come through this area so that, especially this younger generation of Americans is, to be in a position of never forgetting what happened here and never repeating, never allowing a repeat of what happened here. I wish every American would come through here. I wish every world leader would come through here, and understand what it is that took place here and more importantly how America came together and united to commit to never allowing this to happen again. And just to hear and from and see these good New Yorkers who are rebuilding not just this are but helping to rebuild America has been very, very inspiring and encouraging. These are the good Americans who are committed to peace and security and its been an absolute honor getting to meet these folks today.

    CNN: On the topic of never letting this happen again, do you agree with the way the Bush administration has handled the war on terrorism, is there anything you would do differently?

    A: I agree with the Bush administration that we take the fight to them. We never again let them come onto our soil and try to destroy not only our democracy, but communities like the community of New York. Never again. So yes, I do agree with taking the fight to the terrorists and stopping them over there.

    POLITICO: Do you think our presence in Iraq and afghan and our continued presence there is inflaming islamic extremists?

    A: I think our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan will lead to further security of our nation, again, because the mission is to take the fight over there. do not let them come over here and attempt again what they accomplished here, and that was some destruction. terrible destruction on that day. but since September 11, Americans uniting and rebuilding and committing to never letting that happen again.

    POLITICO: Do you support the reelection bids of embattled Alaska Republicans, Rep. Don Young and Sen. Ted Stevens?

    A: Ted Stevens trial started a couple days ago. We’ll see where that goes.

    POLITICO: Are you gong to vote for them?

    [no answer.]

    JERSEY JOURNAL: What do you think of bailout package before congress?

    A: I don't support that until the provisions that Sen. McCain has offered are implemented in Paulson's proposals.

    Her answers/statements are as naive, narrow-minded, unfactual and completely clueless....... as any backwardass, back mountain hillbilly you could conjure up and ask these same questions.

    Clearly not an original thought in her head. Clearly she's not exactly interested in facts and the responsibility of the United States governement.

    Just the usual shallow blame game and fear tactic.

    What's even more bizzare and scarey, is that she's obviously being coached and scripted; but after all this time this is all she (her writers) could come up with.

    You know why they let her answer a few questions, right?

    So, this wasn't the last quote the media had on her from the Couric interview ...

    That will change tonight when CBS airs the foreign policy part of the interview.

    I completely expect that at some point, as we draw nearer to Election Day; I will see her step up, to the mic, lean in and say....." Who wants to see my tits? "

    Vote Republican and See Sarah's Tits!!!!

    actually, if you vote DEMOCRAT ... you may get your dream ... Heff is interested ....

    HUGH HEFNER wants Republican vice presidential candidate SARAH PALIN to pose naked in Playboy magazine - if her White House campaign fails.
    The 44-year-old Alaska Governor and former beauty queen has a huge male following - and Hefner is convinced the magazine would fly off the shelves if she agreed to strip for him.
    Hefner tells America's OK! magazine, "Palin would make a great centrefold. I don't know what it is, but there's something about a really sexy-looking woman wearing glasses. Imagine what she's like when those glasses come off. It would be a new definition of the word vice in vice president."

    Wow
    Ain't that America
  • God....help....us. I'm shocked it isn't clear to EVERYONE that this woman is in no way experienced enough to be President. Holy crap.

    I love the part where she says we need to take the fighting abroad and stop terrorists before they hit American soil. Last I checked Iraq wasn't a breeding ground for terrorism until AFTER we invaded their country.

    My thoughts exactly. :D

    You'd think her handlers could have come up with some nonsense answer for her to offer in case this came up again... Even if it was a lie...it would be better and more effective than what she actually said.

    Did she answer 3 out 4? It seems on this question she didn't answer anything about inflaming Islamic extremists. Sounds more like something King George would say, exactly.

    This is absolutely frightening. Hopefully the intelligent Americans outnumber the dumb ones and the country won't fall for this farce. What a fuckin' joke!

    COURIC: You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that?

    PALIN: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and on our other side, the land-- boundary that we have with-- Canada. It-- it's funny that a comment like that was-- kind of made to-- cari-- I don't know, you know? Reporters--

    COURIC: Mock?

    PALIN: Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah.

    COURIC: Explain to me why that enhances your foreign policy credentials.

    PALIN: Well, it certainly does because our-- our next door neighbors are foreign countries. They're in the state that I am the executive of. And there in Russia--

    COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?

    PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We-- we do-- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to-- to our state.

    Unfortunately, all the retards who vote for the GOP only watch Fox News, so all they got to see was the softball interview that Sean Hannity gave her.

    The interview with Couric is scary, Palin sounds like a REALLY bad 7th grade teacher, but it won't change anything with the GOP sheep.
