ABC Spreads Palin AroundPosted on Sep 11, 2008
ABC plans to air portions of Charles Gibson’s exclusive interview with Sarah Palin all over its air, hoping to squeeze every last drop of ratings out of the VP nominee’s first unscripted appearance. But there’s a byproduct of ABC’s scheduling: Palin’s one foray into media accountability will appear more like several.

distinguished herself as a knowledgeable, sharp, experienced person and carries herself like a CEO. Im 99% sure she has won my vote. I love the idea that we could have a strong woman in the White House who will mix things up in Washington. I thought wed have that chance with Hillary, but at least we can have it with Sarah.

Madame, she’s not having an interview for the manager of a bottling factory. She may possibly be our next President; and does not have a clue, nor would she be allowed to form her own opinions. I’m all for a change or reform. She represents nothing but an empty symbol to conservatives and individuals as you. If Palin said the sky was pink you’re giving us the impression you’d follow blindly and agree 100%. This is an era for wisdom. Mc Cain/Palin = presently SenileDumb/PuppetDumber. Maybe in a few years she can be ready; but until she gets herself up to date on global warming, foreign and US policies, legislature, the domestic crises etc, etc.
It is crazy and irresponsible for anyone to vote for Mc Cain at the age of 7? and leave our childrens’future to another Bush rule. Yes it will be another Bush rule. The men and women that have brought you Bush are powering Mc Cain and will power Palin. NO more wars, we need to rebuild our economy and our general world status.
SHE’S ANOTHER PUPPET.

Mr. ‘Lapel Pin’ Gibson isn’t qualified to interview Even a real Pig- esp this One!
Report thisPalin endangered her own child on the day of his Birth
Palin Shoots Wolves from the safety and comfort of a Plane
Palin has the audacity and arrogance to think God is on her and Her fellow Religious Heretics Schedule.
Palin has no problems Abusing Power
Palin has no problem LYING!
Palin has no problem dismissing the efforts to build this country by those who moved to the cities to work in the Industrial Belt and their decendents who are struggling now in that same ‘Rust Belt’
Palin Loves this country so much she is willing to be affiliated with people who want AK to break Away?
Palin thinks ‘Hockey Mom’ means more than driving to and from the rink, paying the cost and Cheering her kids team on!
Palin is willing to bill a victim- but not the perp for a Rape Kit- Doesn’t seem to think he’ll be caught- low Priority? and thinks it’s fine if the rape victim has No choice but to give birth to a child as a result of that Act of Violence!And cuts funding for women who do Choose to have a child out of wedlock?
So There is nothing more I need to hear from this Embarassment of a candidate , of a Woman! And Nothing I am going to find Informative from questions Posed by Softball Great Gibson.I’d love to say at least I’m not paying for this Dog & Pony Show- but since I have to have cable to get any Clear channels- even networks, I am paying for this Waste of time & My Money!As of Feb ‘09, so will the rest of America- What a Telecom Scam!

This woman has an extremely limited world view and understanding of the complexities in world affairs. As I stated in another posting:
This only exemplifies the “Dumbing Down of America”. Talking Points are more important than the root issues. Sarah Palin does not have the worldliness to represent the USA on the world stage. Most of the individuals running countries around the world are highly educated and extremely adept in their chosen arena. I have had the opportunity of living in both North America and Europe. I have travelled extensively throughout the world and I am constantly amazed by how similar “Humanity” is everywhere. Sarah Palin has a pre-conceived and well programmed misconception about our world and that ignorance will be translated in to a major catastrophe if she and McCain are elected in November. What I don’t understand is why the American people cannot see through this veneer.

I even heard on the news that she unknowingly endorsed some measures that Obama has in respect to getting Bin Laden in Pakistan, that McCain does not agree with. I am not surprised. You cannot learn America’s entire foreign policy in a week, stupid Republicans. I think McCain is getting a little tired of her taking all the spotlight. I heard him say at the forum tonight that he told Mr. Obama that he wanted to just do a series of town meetings, anyway.

After listening to the interview, I am incredulous. What a total zero! This is scary - she really doesn’t have a clue. Dan Quayle was a genius compared to this featherweight. If these people are elected, we will all pray we had Bush and Cheney back.

This is one extremely scary woman…and you all want her for vice president?! Do you understand that McCain/Palin are talking of the possibility of two more wars. This isn’t the first time that McCain has said this…take a look at this youtube video, it is well done and McCain is caught at a rally talking about more “Wars”, which fits right along with the posturing of Palin.
Listen…whether you like it or not, we don’t need another war, much less the possibility of two more wars…we are still at war with Afghanistan and we have over 130,000 of our men still in Iraq. Let’s be reasonable here…exhausted troops, wore out equipment and a failing economy in our country….we CAN NOT enter another war, this is a reality. Palin’s talk is nothing short of suicide for our troops and our country. I don’t care how much you all want a women in office, you can not in your right minds justify placing our country under McCain/Palin! If you think that Bush was horrid, well guess what McCain/Palin is much worse.
McCain video it is worth watching

Wow!!!!!! the war with Russia if necessary comment scared the he?? out of me. The United States have consciously avoided war with Russia since the 1960’s. Does she realized that Russia has more nuclear weapons than the U.S. A war with Russia means we all die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No more world!!!! Is she crazy???????? War should not be an option. We do not have the troops anyway. Who she think is going to fight this war???? Well anyway going to war with Russia is a death sentence for us all.

Malmantile, I have to ask, what do you look for in a doctor? A dentist? A lawyer? The bus driver who drives your kids to school? Training, experience, competence? Or is it enough that they seem to care about people and be REFRESHING?
Report thisYou need to read a book about the Cuban Missile Crisis. I recommend “One Minute to Midnight” by Michael Dobbs. Excellent reading, and maybe you’ll realize that in a crisis, it takes a very complex person with a grasp of a great many factors to cope in a situation like that. We’re talking about someone who has the power to launch a nuclear war. If JFK hadn’t been as well-versed in geopolitics, experienced at processing information and dealing with strong personalities as he was—if all he’d brought to the job was a refreshing sense of simpatico—none of us would probably be here today to root for our candidate.
Get with the program, she’s not running for class president, Mal.

And furthermore, spreading it around ensures that not everyone will see every segment, thus lessening the negative impact. I say that because what I’ve seen on YouTube so far definitely confirms that she is not ready to be Vice President of anything, much less the United States of America. Gibson seems to do an “all right” job, better than I feared he’d do. But it should be a public service broadcast and broadcast in its entirety so voters can tune in and watch.

It’s disgusting that a network that uses the public’s airwaves for cheap (if not free) gets to play hide-and-seek with information vital to our national interest (whether Palin has a brain or not) and charge Superbowl rates for ads while they’re at it. I’m all for businesses making a profit, but this is not appropriate.

As an independent I don’t care what the conservatives say or don’t say. Its all a bunch of spin to me. Moreover, I think the liberals are just as bad and I probably believe even less of what they say. I think Governor Palin did a much better job than most people would have done on their first interview. She definitely is not a Washington politician which is REFRESHING. She seems to actually care about people and seems like a throwback to the days when politics was about public service and not self service like it is with today’s politicians. She has definitely distinguished herself as a knowledgeable, sharp, experienced person and carries herself like a CEO. I’m 99% sure she has won my vote. I love the idea that we could have a strong woman in the White House who will mix things up in Washington. I thought we’d have that chance with Hillary, but at least we can have it with Sarah.

Palin had clearly been prepped on what questions would be asked of her. You could tell she became defensive and erratic when Gibson started asking hard hitting questions, which she had not been advised on in advance. It clearly exposed she has no idea what she is talking about. She just repeats what McCain and his campaign tell her. It was funny when Gibson punked her on the bush doctrine. He knew more about it then she did.

“First unscripted appearance?” Scusi? che cosa?
I think it is very apparent little miss Moosallina Pain is not allowed to do anything unscripted. While it may be unfair to speculate, I’m presuming the reason the interview was delayed so long is because she’s being force-fed more propaganda, distortions and rhetorical answers to give any kind of questions which are allowed.
