Please. Go ahead. The media keeps trashing her and they have no idea how it helps McCain and Palin secure the base of the Republican party.

This morning, I saw Joan Walsh (editor of Salon Magazine) on Morning Joe and she mentioned something about “Sara Palin’s horrible interview with Charlie Gibson last week”. Even Mika Brzezinski had issue with that one.  Joan… the only people that had an issue with Sarah Palin in that interview were the people who would never vote for a Republican no matter what they say or do.

The more you trash her, the more the base loves her. The liberal press just keeps beating up on Palin and it’s obvious that they have given Barack Obama a free pass on the very same things. You never looked at his “record” like you look at her record. You never looked at his “background” like you are delving into hers.

Go to Alaska and dig up whatever trash you can. The more the better! No matter what you say about her, you do it in the condescending pompous attitude that makes the heartland love her.

Great job.

Charlie, don’t you think it would have been better to ask her questions about what she has done in her political career, rather than what she doesn’t know?

All the questions you asked on foreign policy were worthless. She obviously was coached on the answers. What good is that? You know and we know she has no foreign policy experience. You should have asked here how she could govern if she were President without any. Asking her “gotcha” questions does not enlighten the country on who she really is.

Asking here if she agrees with the “Bush Doctrine” is stupid! What you are really asking her is if she knows what the Bush Doctrine is. Who cares, and who knows now what is really is? This is what Wikipedia says:

The Bush Doctrine is a phrase used to describe various principles of United States president George W. Bush, created in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks. There are many and varied elements to the phrase. It is sometimes described as the policy that the United States has the right to treat countries that harbor or give aid to terrorist groups as terrorists themselves, which was used to justify the invasion of Afghanistan.^[1] Later it came to include additional elements, including the controversial policy of preventive war, which held that the United States should depose foreign regimes that represented a supposed threat to the security of the United States, even if that threat was not immediate (used to justify the invasion of Iraq), a policy of supporting democracy around the world, especially in the Middle East, as a strategy for combating the spread of terrorism, and a willingness to pursue U.S. military interests in a unilateral way.

It’s obviously open to interpretation, and I believe there has never been an “official” document from the White House declaring what it is.

You blew your chance Charlie.

BTW: Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, George W Bush and many other Presidents had none either.

Come on Link! Calling Sarah Palin a “cocky wacko”. You are the cocky one, not to mention the most self centered non-republican in Rhode Island.

I mentioned in a previous post, John McCain was the only sitting senator to come to Rhode Island when Chaffee was running for re-election. Not only is it total ungrateful to McCain, he now is dissing his choice for VP.

He is really clueless though. He also said naming Sarah Palin as McCain’s running mate is energising the Obama supporters. Has he noticed what it’s done to the Republican base? Oh yeah. I forgot. Lincoln Chaffee never gave a damn about the Republican base.

The choice of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running mate today was a surprise to me… and just about everyone else I’ve been listening to all day. The more I hear about her, the more I like her.

Maybe she can straighten John McCain out when it comes to drilling for oil in Alaska. Take a look at what she said on Larry “drill drill drill” Kudlow’s show in June.

Among that…

• She said “no thanks” to Congress when they passed an earmark for that bridge to nowhere.
• She has a son being deployed to Iraq later this year.
• She has cut hundreds of projects out of the state budget.
• When gas prices went up this year and Alaska started earning some extra income from the higher price of oil, she arranged a rebate (I believe $1200) to every taxpayer in the state.
• She hunts, fishes and has five children.

Did I mention she was also a women?
