OMG... Palin didn't know what the "B*sh Doctrine" was!!!

[npincus]

She was winging it.... finally Gibson had to explain it to her!

[1corona4u]

1. I turned it on right before that....

and I was watching her face tense up, like she didn't know what it was...I'm glad he pressed her on it.

[npincus]

6. pretty f*cking shocking...

[malik flavors]

2. She looked horrible. Absolutely horrble. Didn't know jack shit.

[MadBadger]

3. She was name-dropping with Georgia

I did n otice that.

[CTyankee]

33. well, after all, she had practiced the name of Georgia's president so many times!

"Now, Sarah, try it again and say it slowly..."

[1corona4u]

8. I noticed all the "edits" too...

in the 4 minutes I was watching, there were at least 3. Not just them jumping from question to question, but like they had to stop...

[flamingdem]

15. That is not fair to the public. They cannot get away with cleaning up her interview

That is crap!

[truedelphi]

69. A Ministry of Propaganda can Always get away with the clean ups

Ministries of Propaganda are ALL About SUBSTITUTING the BIG BIG lie for the TRUTH

www.sethreturns.com/b2evolution/blogs/index.php


Read above - you need to scroll down several articles to get to the article about the Corruption of the Press

This came out of my three years of expereinces with the M$Media

[RockaFowler]

4. That was pretty funny

But I can't laugh because there are people who think this woman is qualified. What qualifications does she have?? I really hope a lot of people are watching this to see that the Puppet is missing her ventriloquist

[madaboutharry]

5. This is the bottom line.

You can not cram "Vice President" they way you crammed "History 1A."

[1corona4u]

9. I think she is in deep doo doo with the Biden debate...

there is NO WAY she will even be able to compete with him. NO WAY.

[OneGrassRoot]

25. And dem techie types better jam the frequencies of any ear pieces!!!! n/t

[GardeningGal]

49. I think ALL candidates should be checked before they go on.

No feeding of the answers to McSame either in the presidential debates.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

63. Candidates must debate in their briefs from now on!

:grr:

[MadrasT]

41. VP for Dummies

[Earth Bound Misfit]

46. heh heh..

Mooselicious

[woolldog]

68. lol

:spray:

[Motown_Johnny]

7. IMO.. Game Over... she can't be the VP nominee after showing that level of ignorance

[npincus]

10. well....

[1corona4u]

13. She is a politician though...

she never did give him a direct answer, but that means she agrees with it, otherwise, she would have said no, I don't agree with him.

[Motown_Johnny]

she didn't answer because she didn't know what it was.

[1corona4u]

27. Yeah, but even after he told her what it was....

she still didn't give a direct answer.

[Motown_Johnny]

32. agreed, but that is after the disaster. The "moose in the headlights" look on her face

is what will be shown over and over again.

It is a level of ignorance that is unforgivable

[hans]

44. Agree. Exactly how I read that moment. N/T

[Earth Bound Misfit]

59. "moose in the headlights"

:spray: gotta clean the keyboard.

Really, is anyone surprised?

Headline: TROJAN MOOSEHEAD: HOLLOW

"Do not trust the MOOSE, Americans! Whatever it is, I LOATHE the REPUGS, even bringing gifts".

[WheelWalker]

72. From your mouth to the ears of America. She's done. Stick a fork in her. n/t

[flamingdem]

11. hahahahahahaha LOL dumb piggy

back to the igloo with you!

[Motown_Johnny]

39. This little piggy may go Weee Weee Weee all the way home

[WinkyDink]

12. Ignorant? Alriiight! She's One Of Us!

[Lochloosa]

14. Game Over. This is a MAJOR TENET OF THE BUSH FIGHT ON TERRORISM

GAME OVER.

[nuxvomica]

16. I swear she was practically sitting in the fetal position

It's becoming clear that she needs a prepared speech (with nuclear spelled "new-clear") or she's at a total loss.

[npincus]

18. Gibson's voice wasa very tense... a little shakey, like he was nervous...

anyone notice?

[nuxvomica]

31. He was trying to discern whether she was answering his question

It wasn't clear what she was saying so he had to concentrate real hard. He had to ask her same question three times, IIRC.

[qanda]

17. The were busy telling her that Russia was formerly the Soviet Union--

(Yes, she actually said that-- it was in the article on ABC) They forgot to tell her about Bush and the reason we're in this eternal,impossible war.

[democrat2thecore]

64. What ABC story? I want to read/hear about this specifically. (Russia/Soviet Union) -nt

[qanda]

73. I swear it was there earlier, but they've changed the link I had to an actual news story

About the interview and the other transcript doesn't have it in there. I wish I had taken a snapshot of it. Oh well, maybe someone else saw it so I'll know I'm not losing my mind.

[Graybeard]

19. She hemmed and hawed and tried to bull-shit...

...her way out of not answering the Bush Doctrine question. She really failed this first test.

[npincus]

20. yeah, even a dumbass like me knew what it was!

:rofl:

[RichGirl]

23. What did she say?

I can't watch...her voice gives me a headache.

[Motown_Johnny]

40. He asked her if she agreed with the Bush Doctrine. she then asked "in what respect Charlie"

hoping he would say something to clue her in. He didn't. He left the question open ended and she needed to default to Bush defending our country from terrorists, or some such shit. I was in shock by that point and lost track.


I'm sure the video will be posted as soon as possible

[Bobbie Jo]

21. Damn...my 18 yr old knows that one. nt

[Arkana]

22. Is this going to be a big deal?

I don't know what the Bush Doctrine is either...but I'm not a Republican running for VP.

[Motown_Johnny]

26. YES... it is the basic premise of our foreign policy for the last 7 years.

Showing this level of ignorance is unforgivable

[Arkana]

36. Funny, I thought our foreign policy was just: "YEEEEE-HAAAWWWW!"

[qanda]

42. You do understand the Bush Doctrine

You're far too modest.

[elehhhhna]

55. WOW! You boiled it down to one word! LOL

[northernlights]

38. yes, arkana, it's a big effin' deal

preemptive war.

B*sh overturned 200+ years of history, turned 'merka into an emprie and painted a big, fat target on every 'merkin's back with it.

[Graybeard]

52. It's even worse than that, it's "Preventive war".

There can be no case that the invasion of Iraq preempted an attack by Hussein. This administration has gone a step more extreme to "prevent" some impending future attack.

[elehhhhna]

56. It's Jesus Endorsed Happy FLoewer Throwing War.

Oh, wait...

[elehhhhna]

57. It's Jesus Endorsed Happy FLoewer Throwing War.

Oh, wait...

[elehhhhna]

58. It's Jesus Endorsed Happy FLoewer Throwing War.

Oh, wait...

[Earth Bound Misfit]

65. Hiccups?

[elehhhhna]

66. lol oops.

[roseBudd]

43. It's a big deal becuae the Bush Doctrine is a major diversion from the Powell Doctrine.

[Canuckistanian]

74. Basically, the Bush Doctrine is...

"Hit 'em before they hit you, even if you have no proof they were going to hit you."

[KathieG]

24. Ut oh...that wasn't in her Cliff Notes

:rofl:

[Motown_Johnny]

30. it is to basic for cliff notes, it is like telling her the page is made of paper

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

28. That's EPIC Fail.

My foreign policy newbie wife(sorry dear) rattled it off in 2 secs...premptive strike.

This is the opening we've been waiting for folks. She's clueless about foreign policy. The sharks have surely got a sniff of easy prey. McMooseMuffins won't be able to get away with hiding her.

Cheers!

[kurth_]

29. Ignorant. Deranged. Dangerous.

And Superficially Articulate.

[SweetieD]

34. *Raises hand* I know, I know! Can I be Vice-President?

[progressoid]

45. That depends. What is you stance on banning books?

Welcome to DU SweetieD!!

[HannibalBarca]

35. I dont think even Bush knows what Bush Doctrine is

I doubt he even knows what doctrine means.

[elehhhhna]

60. He thinks it's got to do with healthcare.

[writes3000]

37. WRITE to media outlets and local newspapers out there. MOVE THIS STORY!!! nt

[Shakespeare]

47. This movie scene keeps popping into my head.

25 seconds in, that's what I keep hearing every time I read that she didn't know what the Bush Doctrine is.

:rofl:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXx-Pn_8nKw&feature=related

[dzika]

48. Video clip of 'Bush doctrine' question

http://rawstory.com/rawreplay/?p=1895

[1corona4u]

50. If you watch this....watch Gibson...

he was clearly annoyed by her....when she was trying to answer, he seems disgusted.

[writes3000]

53. ABSOLUTELY. He's shifting and uncomfortable because he's knows she's a disastrous joke.

I haven't seen the interview yet but this clip scares the shit out of me.

[Patsy Stone]

61. Hey!

I haven't seen you in forEVER! :hi:

[Glimmer of Hope]

70. Wow. She wasn't prepped very well. Why does she keep repeating his name?

[creeksneakers2]

51. YOU CAN SEE RUSSIA FROM ALASKA!

She obviously had no idea what she is talking about. She gave Israel permission to do whatever they want in the MidEast without a second thought. She couldn't decide if we should invade Pakistan or not.

The answer to the last question, which had to be asked several times, made no sense at all to me. Something about a war from God turned into a speech about rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Energy is the basis of all foreign policy? That's what we've been trying to tell the Sarah. Its all a war for oil.


The lady isn't even qualified to be the governor of Alaska.

[elehhhhna]

62. Russia has, like 11 time zones! You can't even see Russia from Russia!

[Gregorian]

54. But she can gut a moose.

And everyone knows how valuable that can be as a vice president.

Sorry I missed the interview. But I don't do Gibson. I have standards.

[chill_wind]

67. It was very evident that she drew a blank. And it wasn't even a trick question.

Depressing to realize that Wingers who DO indeed know what the Bush Doctrine is (lawyers, teachers, clergy, political bloggers, think-tankers and media professonals, etc )will rationalize and vote for her/McCain anyway. And they will.

[weezie1317]

71. She may be actually retarded! I'm against the personal attacks, but that was horrible!

[npincus]

75. LOL... she forgot her Monarch notes at home for Vice Presidenting 101

[marew]

76. She was clueless! Pathetic Palin!

Didn't you love the look on her face? Priceless! She's toast. Can't wait for the debate!:rofl:

[woo me with science]

77. This is incredibly scary stuff.

It makes me ill that the polls are so close. This is just terrifying.

[spanone]

78. she didn't have a fucking clue....
