Palin interview thread. Anyone watching?

[Fuzz]

Not ready for primetime?

[firedupdem]

1. You can see Russia from Alaska. n/t

[Dinosaur13]

35. All options on the table in Pakistan!

Does she mean nuclear strike?

[Fuzz]

41. All options

[Dinosaur13]

66. She didn't to measure her words at all.

Kinda "Bushy".

[Fuzz]

2. Wow, obvious edit after

"What should we do about a nuclear Iran?

[chelsea0011]

9. What was that all about.? She may have melted down and needed a break.

[qanda]

37. I want to see the unedited version

[seasat]

54. She had to fish out her cliff notes from McCain

"Lets see Iran...It borders on Pakistan according to John...Full of Muslim dudes who train Al Queada...Bomb! Bomb! Bomb Iran. I'm ready!"

[Vadem]

3. Where are you watching? ... n/t

[Fuzz]

ABC world news tonight

East coast

[Vadem]

7. Thanks!! ... n/t

[Tangerine LaBamba]

4. Oh, why?

Like I give a fuck what that sockpuppet has to say.

[gateley]

5. No! I didn't even know it was on until another DUer just posted a comment

about it.

Feel free to provide a running commentary -- I won't be able to watch it until it' on the website or YouTube.

[JanMichael]

6. nope. Palin overload here

I am exhausted with that redneck.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. Thanks, but I was planning on drinking a nice cup of bleach

and sticking knitting needles in my eyes instead.

[grannie4peace]

that does sound better than listening to piglin

[hisownpetard]

50. A nice cup of bleach!!!

:rofl:

[MadrasT]

70. DUzy!

:rofl: :toast:

[zuzu98]

10. Charlie doesn't look too impressed

and she's another one who says "nook-u-lar." gag

[firedupdem]

34. Gibson :Do we have the right to go across the border and attack with

or without the approval of Pakistan's government?

Pig Lips :We have the right to defend our country from islamic extremist we must do whatever it takes and do not blink when we make these decisions.

America has to exercise all options when it comes to defending from terrorists ready to destroy us.


She said all that while sounding like a complete idiot.

[hisownpetard]

53. Are you sure she said, "Do not blink"? I think she said, "Do not THINK."

[Jazzgirl]

59. LOL! Firedupdem if she said it like that with the same

punctuation (which I'm sure she did) then she definitely proved she is an idiot, not just sounding like one. :rofl: :rofl:

[OHDEM]

56. That's why it was spelled phonetically on her telepromter

at the RNC. Moron!

[eshfemme]

61. LOL, I guess someone forgot to phoneticize it for her. It's new-clear. New-clear.

:rofl:

[Dont_Bogart_the_Pretzel]

11. She said "nucular"

:crazy:
Crazy a$$ Bush-bot
:crazy:

[Kittycat]

12. Why are they interviewing that lying witch on 9/11?

Could we think of no other way to ruin the day?

[Fuzz]

13. Gibson looks confused, had to explain what the "Bush Doctrine" was

to her.

[monmouth]

24. You do realize this is gold, right? Play that sucker over and over and over..n/t

[Fuzz]

29. Ayup

Looked like a caribou caught in a sniper rifle scope there.

[W_HAMILTON]

14. What's with the weird editing?

It's happened at least 3+ times already.

[tekisui]

39. Very choppy, un-professional.

I wonder what was cut at such haste.

[Fuzz]

43. Could be that.

[Virginia Dare]

57. Official explanation will be..

she had to breast feed the baby.

[cwydro]

I'm watching. He stumped her with that Bush Doctine question, but she recovered

pretty well.

[qanda]

27. She did? I must have been watching a different interview...

Send me the link.

[tekisui]

40. She repeated a bunch of gobbledigook.

[bajamary]

15. what is the Bush doctrine? duh

Oh my God, she's really dangerous.

[cwydro]

47. She looked like a deer in the headlights...or is that a moose?

[Fuzz]

16. Palin scooting forward in chair

[Vadem]

and slumping her shoulders forward--looks very unprofessional..n/t

on edit: slumping NOT humping! LOL

[Aqaba]

17. Man she sucks horribly

[kskiska]

18. She didn't know what the Bush Doctrine meant

She faked it. She looks scared and won't answer his questions. He asks each three times.

[CC]

33. Looks like they have been teaching

her how to use a lot of words to not answer questions instead of trying to teach her any foreign policy. Damn how do you get to be governor and know so little.

[Virginia Dare]

58. Bush does that with relative ease, her not so much....n/t

[glowing]

19. NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Not giving that thing the ratings she doesn't deserve.

[PVnRT]

20. No. I don't want to hear what that fucking religious lunatic has to say.

[lynnertic]

32. Don't go calling her a lunatic - it'll give us a bad name. n/t

[W_HAMILTON]

21. There's another edit

It's really strange. I'm sure all interviews are edited, but it seems a lot more obvious in this interview. Weird stuff.

[qanda]

22. She didn't know anything about the Bush Doctrine

[bajamary]

23. too emotional

Oh, she was way out of her league

[cwydro]

25. oh no, she says "nukular" too.

I hate that.

[tekisui]

26. Choppy editing. She doesn't know what the Bush Doctrine is

and she doesn't understand US policy regarding Pakistan.

[LeftyFingerPop]

28. Holy Shit!!! I can't wait for the debates!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[LuckyLib]

30. "I'm getting lost in a blizzard of words." You tell her, Charlie!

The Repub VP candidate is pathetic. She had no idea what the BushDoctrine was. None whatsoever.

[OneGrassRoot]

31. I saw one minute and know it's worthy of a drinking game:

Just as with McCain's "friends," hers is "Charlie."

She said Charlie five times in 30 seconds! LOL

Okay, that was enough for me. As usual, I rely on you guys to take a bullet for the home team and report back. ;)

[firedupdem]

44. Even my kid who acts like he cares about nothing noticed

the choppy editing! What a shame! I've noticed it at least 3 times. Turning it off now..don't want to help their ratings.

[onethatcares]

36. don't have to watch, the asshats

on abc nightly news down here (st pete fla) are fawning all over her, along with some rw witch and jagoff that have the reasons why the Democrats can't win. Gaud, these fucking non news talking heads drive me nutz.

[Fuzz]

38. Well, there ya go. FIrst segment over and wow. I'd give it a D+

Gibson didn't throw softballs, but he didn't go after her either.

[gateley]

42. When is the second segment? Thanks.

[Fuzz]

46. End of the show, of course

Ratings you know.

[gateley]

48. But it's tonight -- as opposed to Bill O dragging Obama's out over a few days?

[Fuzz]

52. Lol, yeah, but not quite. They are still dragging it out over a couple

days and several shows apparently.

[gateley]

60. Well if she delivers such a disappointing performance

(even some Freepers were unimpressed) maybe the interest (and ratings) will wane.

Thanks!

[Fuzz]

64. I actually want more people to see it!

and go, uh oh.

[gateley]

71. Since my previous post, I've actually seen it, and I'm stunned at how bad

it was. I was really trying to watch objectively, and one thing came through loud and clear -- she is in way over her head.

[qanda]

45. The thing that struck me the most was her not thinking about her decision

No discussion with her family or any thought to what it would do to her children? I think that's selfish and beyond reckless.

[marions ghost]

49. Bring it ON...

There would be those in the media just licking their chops to get a crack at Palin. She can't hide behind her blow hard image forever.

Just like with Chimpy this Barbie has no clothes & no moose either.

[Fuzz]

51. Ok, it's official. She was horrible. Freepers hate Gibson!

lmfao.



Charlie is hammering her on the experience angle. I don’t like this guy.

I would like to see Charlie be this stern with O or Biden.

Charlie is playing a hard ass.

Charlie IS an arse.

Imagine Charlie sucking on a lemon....while looking down his nose over his professor glasses.

111 posted on Thursday, September 11, 2008 6:40:10 PM by Dog



It’s on right now. Charlie is trying to trip her up. He is trying to sound so highbrow.

[Vadem]

62. She is going to be on 20/20 Friday night, right! I think it will be ...

must see TV for a longer interview!!

[Faygo Kid]

63. I had to check that out, too. Hilarious.

Try hillaryclintonforum.net for their take. Doubly hilarious. Occasionally the Freepers present a genuine political perspective (rarely). Not the PUMAs. They are such ignorant cultists that they have no clue what is being said ("When are they going to ask Joe Biden about foreign policy?" :rofl: )

[The Gunslinger]

73. They called him a hardass.............LOL

[OneGrassRoot]

55. It was like she was interviewing for a sitcom! n/t

[radfringe]

65. I'd rather watch lipstick dry....

that being said - we know what the media will be reporting tomorrow

Palin hits a grand slam
Palin WHHOOO-HOOO
WOOT WOOT Palin

:yawn:

[qanda]

67. Even the freepers aren't saying that she did well

It would be too obvious if the press praised her after that fiasco.

[kskiska]

68. at L.com the reviews were glowing

until this one…

I'm an enthusiastic supporter of Sarah Palin, but my gut reaction to the interview is that she wasn't quite as effective as I hoped she would be. Her answers were adequate for the most part, but something was missing. I think I was expecting the personality and wit we've seen on the trail.

--------

Now some are daring to be a little more realistic, but are blaming it on Gibson, who's "condescending."

[radfringe]

69. expecting the personality and wit we've seen on the trail???

:rofl:

all that personality and wit is stage direction inserted in the speech that was written by someone else

[The Gunslinger]

72. Hell no

I'm hearing clips on the Malloy shop, and I want to turn that off. the little I heard sounded like it was entirely read by her.

[ColbertWatcher]

74. Is the interview on tonight?

I'm in Cal and my onscreen TV guide thing doesn't say anything about Charlie Gibson.
