The press will declare her a foreign policy expert and that she's ready
to be president--it doesn't matter what she says or doesn't say. I've seen this movie too many times already.
sigh

1. I agree- or at the least- they will be saying this by October...
Edited on Thu Sep-11-08 05:47 PM by Dr Fate
I predict there will be a few voices coming out against her, but in October, those same voices will be saying:

"...it's clear that she has really learned a lot in the past few weeks and has really risen to the challenge-this is a lady who can really think on her feet and adjust to challenges..."

I've seen this movie too many times as well.

2. You're probably right.
They don't have the guts to tell the truth.

3. Question Should Be Asked
Where did she learn this information? What part of her background caused her to think this? Or what experience has led her to these statements. How much of her responses were given to her (aka filled in) by other staff? Who were those Staff members? Would these be the people telling her what to do should she become President. BLEGH!

4. Good question for Biden or a DEM pundit to ask. Do you really believe the media will ask that?
Edited on Thu Sep-11-08 05:51 PM by Dr Fate
In fact, the past 8 years have conditioned me to believe that a Democrat wont ask that either- at least not on camera- but I wish they would.

I think your questions are fantastic- but the internet is full of 8 years worth of great things that the media or Democrats should have said.

6. Where can we submit these questions so they could actually be read
I am a curious person. Is there anywhere we could submit such questions? I believe in directness, clarity, in reporting.

5. Well hopefully YouTube and the internet and word of mouth can get the story out
If the M$M won't lay a glove on her after this atrocious outing, we'll just have to show it to everybody.

This woman has all the Foreign Policy depth of a BUMPER STICKER and we need to DRIVE THAT HOME.

The Foreign Policy depth of a BUMPER STICKER. He asked her why they attacked on Sept. 11 and she said because they (from memory here)"don't support American Values"???? BUMPER STICKER. That's a recycled "Hate us for our freedom".

She's not even thinking this stuff up for fuck's sake!! She's reciting what her handlers told her to say. That degree in communications and experience as a sportscaster really paid off!

She's a religious whack job SpokesBarbie with a gun that eats Moose Burgers!

I need an aspirin.

8. Well, if they wanted to lower expectations for the VP debate...
... the ABC interview accomplished that. If she can string together complete sentences at the VP debate, she'll be praised to the skies for what a quick study she is. See, look? No qualifications? No problem!
