If you want to know how BAD Palin did...check out the WhineFest at FR!
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2080528/posts?q=1&;page=51

YO FREEPERS!!! WANT SOME CHEESE WITH THAT WHINE? Fave excerpts below:

:rofl:

Just accept the fact that the MSM is the enemy, and hit back and hit hard.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The filth of the criminal left just keeps piling up.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gibson was disgusting and the intro of “she definitely is Christian” was pure religious bigotry and hatred. Doesn’t Obama swear he is “definitely a Christian???” Aren’t all Christians. That is outrageous.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Just accept the fact that the MSM is the enemy, and hit back and hit hard.”

Exactly. This is a war with the scumbags on the left. Hit them hard.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: God luvs America
Gibson and his running dog lackeys should not get any more interviews. Just cut ‘em off.



To: GOPJ
what was with Gibson's droning, monotone voice? It sounded completely condescending, like he was trying so hard to tolerate what he perceived to be an ignorant woman.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: Parley Baer
He treated her as if every single opinion she holds is unbelievable, my wife is here saying he was sexist, disgusting, elitist.... the way he looked down at her over her glasses was offensive, who the hell is he???

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The filth of the criminal left just keeps piling up.

And the stupidity of the Republicans just keeps piling up. Sarah could have done this interview on Fox with Hannity.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: GOPJ
This dreadful interview was reminiscent of Gore sighing during the debates with Bush. Rather than looking intellectual, Gore looked like a pompous ass. It was the same with Gibson tonight.
For this let us be thankful. Hopefully Gibson will be as obnoxious throughout the the interview, it makes it all the easier for Gov. Palin and when she looks good, no followup cries of Gibson being soft on her.

Gov. Palin did two things very well. She prevented Gibson from connecting any of her responses to the Bush administration. You could see it was one of his goals and he did not succeed. She also did not allow Gibson to frame questions in the negative, where she had no way of generating a positive answer. I already feel confident she will do well coming out the other side of this interview and any skepticism that it creates in the mind of the uncommitted voter will be about the questioner, not Gov. Palin's answers.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: LoveUSA
You got it. It was arrogant, boorish, and condescending.
If Gibson wants to know how it looked to outsiders, he should think back to his first day of being an anchor - then imagine what it would be like if a seasoned veteran of the news did a high handed “interview” like he did with Sarah.Is Gibson really that insecure?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: IDRATHERNOT
Yeah, I saw that question: “Holy War?” on at least on ABC website. They are trying to make her look like a nut.

9. She's an airhead. A female GW Bush. I was absolutely blown away by
her ignorance of foreign policy issues and her one-note, Bush-like rhetoric.

If that was the best she could do after a couple of weeks of cramming, she's not just uninformed, she's too stupid to be near the presidency.

That way they are easier to manipulate. It seems pretty obvious now that that is why GWB got the nod.

The Bering Strait is fifty miles across. She may have been talking about the Diomede Islands. The big one is Russia's, the little one is ours. They are separated by 1.5 miles and the International Date Line.

She's only running for VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES !!!! :grr: So, whatever you do, don't (sob) be rough (sniff) on her! :nuke:

And freepers aren't allowed to use the word "sexist." The only reason that term exists is because LIBERAL women (and men) fought long and hard to bring focus on that awareness (and there are still miles to go in this culture).

30. you have a stronger stomach than I do
is this a fair sample of the comments? if so, they seem to agree she sucked (although they won't admit it) and have chosen to attack the interviewer and blame the msm

yes she would have done a better job on faux/hannity, because the questions would have been better scripted to match the answers. sort of like jeopardy, here are the answers - frame a question to match

I didn't watch it, although I did try to watch some of the video clips but her voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard and makes me wince. ennywhoo, given the "reviews" here on the DU - either the questions were harder than expected, or she wasn't tutored very well

to be treated with kid gloves, just like their god-king, George W. Bush. Just a matter of time before they insist her feet shouldn't have to touch the same ground Democrats trod.



Fine with me, as long as she has Freeps hauling her peculiar ass around.

What a pity they don't have their own internetS. It's almost torture even seeing fragments of their disoriented, brain-damaged, putrid gibbering represented here. My God.

37. Alright, don't hate me for this,
but Gibson WAS a little contemptuous in his demeanor and tone of voice. I talked to some people about it afterward, wondering if they saw it too, and some of them said 'yeah'. I'll admit I haven't seen all parts of it, but the stuff I saw was like that.

And you know what, Big Fucking Deal. So what if the reporter has some attitude. The questions that he lobbed were 'VP 101'. If she didn't know that shit, and she didn't, then that's too bad and thank jeebus we find out now instead of when she sends our troops into Georgia. Besides, someone with more awareness can direct reporters as well. She flunked.

This is also the woman who said about Hillary- 'she seemed like a whiner, instead of doing that, get better'. Time to take your own advice.

question about whether or not the U.S. has the right to enter Pakistan without an OK from their government. She just kept repeating her scripted lines.

I don't blame Gibson for being irritated with her, if he was. And good for him for trying to get an answer to his question.

ABC edits out a portion of the interview yesterday where Gibson basically calls Palin out on her idiocy and the idiotic freeps think it's an act of the 'loony left'. The editing was done to make Palin look BETTER, not worse. Is it possible to have less intelligence than this sub-human dolts?

51. Who cares?
Why is it even an issue if someone is a Christian. All religion is nonsense so why argue about nonsense? Obama has to pretend that he believes in nonsense in order to appease the fools who are in the majority even in the democratic party. It is all such a waste of time. While people argue about fairy tails the world is going to hell and nobody cares. They want to be sure that some candidate declares they are Christian and if you are secular or atheist you are toast and you will not be heard. They will steamroll us. It is so over. They won. Just shoot me.

53. What these fools probably don't realize,
Gibson was chosen specifically by the McCain team. Their first choice was, surprise!, the ever fair and balanced Fox 'news'. Of course, that's where Hannity (is he even considered a journalist) will be remanufacturing the Wasilla Wonder.

What's interesting is looking at the teams selection process. Basically, everyone other than Fox was considered too biased, which should tell you something about Fox.

Interestingly enough, both ABC and CBS were given a first pass. Diane Sawyer was seen as “ideologically and culturally hostile” and George Stephanopoulos as being “a Democrat.” Bob Schieffer of CBS was considered one of the few remaining television journalists without an apparent personal agenda but the feeling was they could not go to CBS without going to Katie Couric, who as in the case of Diane Sawyer, is known in the words of my source as “unsympathetic to persons of Mrs. Palin’s background.” (This from my source.)


http://dougwead.wordpress.com/2008/09/11/why-was-charles-gibson-chosen-to-interview-sarah-palin/

So even with the most sympathetic journalist they could find, editing, done on location in her home turf, and obscene amounts of professional coaching, she still came off looking like a jackass.
