So, Sarah, How Is Alaska’s Proximity to Russia Relevant?
From the second half of Katie Couric’s interview with vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, airing tonight:
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.
That veneer of cheap nail polish she wears has long cracked after her well varnished debut. There’s nothing in the Trojan Horse but a fat cow.

Both beauty queens, both clueless.

“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.”
And what has the community organizer self proclaimed Messiah has to show for his foreign policy, a speech to a bunch of drunken Germans in which he anointed himself as the next President of the United States (while looking down on it of course). I guess if you count the south side of Chicago as foreign territory considering how alien some of its most illustrious inhabitants are to the American people and given how more people die there than in an actual war zone then yeah Hussein Obama has some foreign experience. Although considering the state in which he has left his constituency its a failed one.
·
Churr-chilly when has Obama ever “proclaimed” that he is the Messiah?
You are just a liar.
I wonder if coming onto progressive websites and lying to try and get us riled up gives you some kind of sexual satisfaction.
·
Palin is frightening in too many ways to mention. The Republicans who are defending her as a viable VP candidate are cynical liars and fools and probably unpatriotic.
·
ALL republicans are unpatriotic.
Some of them are just too stupid to realize it.
·
Oh golly whiz, she’s just-like, cari- I don’t know, SMART, you know?
Jesus KRISTE.

This speaks more about McCain than anything. That he is so desperate to make sure that he gets the religious reich and the white trash vote that he would be willing to put our nation in jeopardy by selecting this for vice president of the U.S. He is so old that he could very well not make it through his term and this is what we would have leading our nation? He must have ingested to much Agent Orange when he was on holiday in Nam.
I heard some gossip that he was selecting a greeter from a Wal-mart store in Waco Texas as secretary of state and a bouncer from a country western bar in Nashville as national security advisor. After this that would not be so far fetched would it!
·
I am godsmacked! But I do know one thing, never again will I engage in an argument with someone about why this McCain/Palin
ticket is a recipe for disaster. If someone is not bright enough after these interviews then they are pretty much a lost cause and obviously don’t have the intelligence to get it. Sad thing is that she is so representative of so much of America. Ill traveled, ill informed, loud and full of shit. Before you attack me, I am an American myself saying this. If this ticket wins, America’s fate is sealed and say good bye to the empire.
·
Wow, that was painful. She seems to be getting worse ever since that Gibson interview on ABC. WORSE! How is managing to get worse as time goes on?
It’s really no wonder McCain and Palin are avoiding the media.
·
The McCain camp must be so very worried about next Thursday. Too bad the VP debates don’t get such a wide audience as the Presidential debates. Then again, with all the curiosity regarding Palin, maybe a large amount of people will tune in, only to realize how lost and dim-witted she is.

Dumb as a bag of Caribou shit.
