  • WOW she's a Dumb Ass

  • People talked about Obama and the community organizing job, and here she is commanding the national guard. Charlie is looking at her like the dumb ass she is

  • this bitch is retarted

  • I'd love someone to type out a transcript of this one long, rambling, incoherent, nonsensical, grammatically flawed, brainless stream of utter bullshit, frame it and present it to her.

  • She has the potential to destroy the respect for women in high office. There are SOOOO many good female politicians.. How the hell has this log floated to the top?

  • @Firchild being top light.

  • notice how this dame cannot answer a single question without digressing off into a whole other tangent?

  • Lol i dont like her 2012 here we come diz bitch is going to end diz world we r going to go to war with russa i can just fill it obama should stay prestdent hes much better n smarter den diz bitch

  • Energy is a foundation of National Security. That's the funniest thing i've ever heard.....

    This is edited right ?

  • was that real? or was that a funny edit? seriously

  • my god, she is so fucking dumb... she doesn't have a slightest idea about what she is saying. She's like Gillian from Family Guy...

  • Well, Charlie how great is Obama doing? I am laughing so hard I am almost falling to the floor. Community organizers just should stay and organize they do not belong in the big boys club. Harvard must teach one to dither well.

  • Czirmos22: Community organizer? dithering? For fuck's sake, you don't even have your own thoughts, do you? Just a parrot who can only repeat the buzz words that have been stuffed into his brain 24/7

  • In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie? In what respect, Charlie?

  • Great job Sarah!!!

    In terms of middle America you're as good as it gets, it don't get any better.

    Too bad Charlie go soak your head !!!

  • oh my god I can't believe the news media bypassed this and waited for the Couric interview. this was just as good

  • There's more money in Hollywood as a tv talk show than politics. She's pretty and articulate. She could make more money just coz she's Sarah Palin. She's got a face and a name now - use them in Hollywood!

  • the interviewer was like

    "bitch u are so stupid...."

  • WTF is it with Palin and Russia Lol

  • See the movies: THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR (1975),Robert Redford, Faye Dunaway, and ON DEADLY GROUND (1992) Steven Seagal. Both flicks explain a lot, and CONDOR was very prescient, coming out 2-years after the 1973 ARAB OIL EMBARGO, that set of our first real bad recession of the 1970s. Our economy is dependent on CHEAP energy. When energy is no longer cheap, time to use alternatives!

  • But if I just watch The Matrix, it'll disprove all of that, cos, you know, none of it's really happening!

  • She's so ignorant of her own state, how could she have been picked for the second highest office in the country. Alaska does not "produce 20% of domestic supply of energy", it's only 3.5%.

  • WTF?!?!! She was trying to connect National Security to Energy...

  • Well, look at it this way. Why do we go to war? To fight for truth, justice, freedom and the American way? Or do we go to war to control resources and energy? Our addiction to foreign oil is one of the main reasons why we are intervening in the middle east, waging perpetual pre-emptive war against imaginary enemies. I highly doubt that was Palin's point, but it is my point.

  • McCain admitted a year ago the only reason we are in Iraq is not for the WMDs that were never found, it is for the OIL (see the movie THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR, with Robert Redford, Cliff Robertson, and Faye Dunaway, also ON DEADLY GROUND, with Steven Seagal). Such a shame, when there are alternative energy devices and systems out there the oil-companies bought the rights to and shelved (suppressed), and now gas is only $1.64 a gallon at WAW!. No need to "Drill baby Drill" Gas is cheap again.

  • Well I don't have a fundamental problem with drilling but I believe the market will make a much more intelligent choice when it comes to energy sources than government could ever make. If we find an efficient, affordable alternative, then keep the government and their criminal corporate partners out of the way baby! The market is smarter than a bunch of bumbling ballwashing bureaucratic buffoons in Washington and thei corporate elite paymasters.

  • Our energy independence from foreign oil is inextricably tied to our National Security.

  • answer the question....

  • McCain supporters were you serious? Honestly she's so stupid, not because she's white, not because she's a woman, but because she just is.

    THANK GOD OBAMA 08 eight years straight!

    THANK GOD OBAMA 08 eight years straight!

  • We, The People Of The United States, just can't get over Sarah Palin. "Wow". This is spectacularly Outrageous.......Where is Dan Qualye?

  • pleazsay... Sarah PLAIN appealed to the "you aint no gooder n me generation. You know, those rednecks with severe inferiority complexes?

    BTW: If the economy doesn't improve, Obama is one and done. A bad economy typically gets a President fired. Ask Ford, Carter and Daddy Bush. Ask the former republican controlled Congress. Whether or not they were at fault, the bad economy of those times got them all fired. Just the truth.

  • Did she or does she EVER answer a question?

  • Nope. :)

  • I cant believe you people! sarah palin is a genius!what a great leader of the free world she will one day be!god sent her to us! why cant you evil doer's see that? she will save us from them there ArAbS!!! (she does have very nice legs)

  • Obama has won, you can relax. Sarah Palin is on her way back to her igloo, with her family and pregnant under-age daughter.

  • Sarah Palin does have nice legs

  • dumb as dogshit..

    good luck America.

  • OBAMA PRESIDENT!!!

  • Charlie Gibson for President! Great interview Charlie.

  • I love Charles Gibson! He's a great interviewer and one of the few people in media who give it to us straight. I grew up watching him, ever since i could remember and trust him. GO CHARLIE!!

  • Well, he gives us to it straight when he's allowed to do so, like in this interview, which I think he did a good job in. But when he interviewed Gore Vidal re: the Oklahoma City bombing a few years back, Vidal answered with something about Waco, and used the word "why" and Gibson pulled the feed. End of interview. Gibson isn't immune to taking orders from the weapons manufacturers and defense contractors who own our media.

  • Duuuh

  • drill, baby drill! that's her stance on national security.

  • Sarah Palin has inspired so many people TO GET OUT AND VOTE FOR OBAMA / BIDEN !

    She is really experienced in talking crap. Imagine her making deals with WORLD LEADERS... that would be the end of this world as we know it.

    voteforchange d0t c0m

    GET OUT AND VOTE!

  • OH... That interview was so doctored.

  • She ain't ready.

  • Sarah Palin has NO credentials on any national issues. However, she has credentials with her NRA membership and hunting skills. Put her on the Iraq front lines as a snipe-she loves to kill!

  • This is a damn joke.

  • if you're voting for Mc

  • so stupid she's not even funny - just scary

  • This woman is a true moron. Her running for vp should be illegal. She is a threat to national security.

  • Fact: This bimbo Sarah Palin's stylist Amy Strozzi was paid $22,800 in the first two weeks of October 2008 while McCain's foreign policy adviser Randy Scheunemann was paid $12,000 during the same period.

    Says quite a whole lot about their priorities, doesn't it? Seems like she cares more about her hair style and lipstick than trying to learn more about foreign affairs.

    I am not a huge fan of Obama but this woman is just good enough to be a hotel receptionist - not a VP...God save us!!

  • u r what is wrong w this world

  • Go Sarah Go! Go back to Alaska! Go home and take care of your family! THEY'RE the ones that need you now! I can't wait till this election is over so I NEVER have to hear from your 'mavericky' voice again!Dear Alaska,If you want her?,You can have Her!Mr&MrsPalin,Let's pray that you never have walk in Cindy Sheehan's Shoes!

    Viva~BARACK OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA~GOD BLESS AMERICA!LAND THAT I LOVE!STAND BESIDE HER;AND GUIDE HER!FROM THE MOUNTAINS TO THE OCEANS WHITE W/FOAM

  • Q: what is the difference between sarah palin's mouth and sarah palin's vagina?

    A: only one out of five things to come out of her vagina are retarded.

  • hahahahahahahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!­! you are the fucking shit!!!! im telling everyone i see this joke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! whwre did u hear this?? got any more???

  • lmfaoo u are great that made my day !!

  • Let's face it. McCain chose her to try and win the female vote. He took the approach in winning their vote that is equivalent to trying to loosen a lug nut by picking up a refrigerator and using it like a bludgeon. Palin is a vapid cunt that doesn't have a single rational thought in her head. She needs to find some small-town shithole of a village to govern where she has no power to do any damage and holds a doughnut convention for local cops once a year.

  • OMG! What a freaking BIMBO! As a satellite tv installer I have a better grasp of foreign policy than she does. NOT KIDDING!

  • Fuck you, asshole. Your racism is unwelcome in America. Leave our great nation at once, we don't want you here.

  • What a dumbass God help us if they win.....

  • she's not a smart cookie

  • Charlie's expression looks like he wants to say "GOD THIS IS A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME! SHE DOESN"T KNOW ANYTHING THAT HASN"T BEEN SCRIPTED!" THat's why they are name calling!!

  • Some people drink from the fountain of knowledge............Palin and the racist assholes trying to beat on Obama just gargle.

  • Well that "monkey" is gonna be governing your every move soon so i'd either get an education fast you racist piece of shit or else youll be spending the next 4 years answering to a monkey. Obama 08!

  • what u say is sort of right. but where we need to get is to the point where we don't swear at or insult each other. Jesus was a community organizer;Pontious Pilot was a Govenor.Jesus was also a Jew...We are of one World. We DO need to share with each other!If Sarah Palin is really about US, she will go back to Alaska and protect the perma-frost for US! That's where we need her!

  • Alaska is a place to send people you want to get rid of, not to find people who can stand as command-in-chief of the world's only superpower. She can see Siberia, the rare siberian tiger, and the mythical snow beast -- oops that's McCain, sorry.

  • Somewhere, somehow, an Alaskan village has lost its' idiot.

  • m shut the fuck up! like being controlled? :) G

  • I am not a robot.

    I'm Sarah Palin. O_O

    (oops fergot the lisptick) >:-*

  • It is absolutely mind boggling that a group of experienced republican politicians got together and decided this woman is qualified to be the vice president of america.

    Its obvious that everything she said was a talking point she memorized before the interview. This woman belongs in Alaska. America doesn't need someone this amazingly ignorant in national leadership.

    10 years in the military-voting for Obama

  • Wow, Gibson makes himself look like a total idiot here. Dems have been talking about energy independence as key to national security. I dont see him looking down on Obama about that. And what national security credential does Obama have? Sitting in a chair in Washington doesn't count for much. At least McCain has gotten out of the chair and gone somewhere. And Biden is mentally deficient as we saw in the debate. He couldnt get his facts str8.

  • It's as if she's a robot that consistently malfunctions during every single interview...good heavens

  • she is a MILF

  • lol "energy is an important part of national security". the only thing she talks about is the fact that she was the governor of a large energy producing state. she constantly reiterates that. wow palin wow. if mccain wins the elections... im moving to canada

  • Bullsh*t baffles brains. I'm baffled. She is absolutely clueless.

  • Um... WTF?

    Palin is waaay out of her depth.

  • You could carve a better candidate out of a banana. This woman is an idiot.

  • Palin is fucking weeeeeeeak!

    OBAMA 2008! OBAMA 2008! OBAMA 2008! OBAMA 2008! OBAMA 2008! OBAMA 2008! OBAMA 2008!

  • John McCain is desperate and it shows

    Vote Obama-Biden if you love America!!!

  • may god save america

  • shes a fucking idiot-wake up america!

  • Sancte Michael Archangele, defende America in proelio; contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium. Imperat illi Deus; supplices deprecamur: tuque, Princeps militiae coelestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo, divina virtute in infernum detrude. Amen

    JMJ: Protect the unborn, pray for McCain and Palin and pray for the likes of Gibson who want to destroy ppl

  • Palin is obviously in this way over her head. But watching this clip about nuclear weapons I actually started to feel sorry for her. Is she really that naieve? Is she really such a tool? Wow. I feel bad for her. But I feel even worse for us: Americans who could actually end up with this uninformed religious maniac talking puppet as a President.

  • I don't think she knows what she is blabbering about.

  • What on earth was she blubbering about?

  • what?!!

  • Wow, she totally missed the question. Tomorrow's debate should be lots of fun.

    An impulsive angry old man and a clueless extremist woman should never be allowed in the White house

  • wtf she didn't say anything about her credentials.

    "i can see russia from my house!"

  • Is it me or does Sarah Palin sound like she's answering questions for a job at the local Arbee's and is struggling to find the answer to the age old job question, "Tell me about a time when......" Hello!!! You're supposed to go into the interview prepared!!

    If I've ever seen a less intelligent person - I can't remember it. She makes George Bush look like a Rhodes Scholar.

  • that's so true, I wouldn't even hire her to work in a restaurant let alone be VP

  • Aaaah Ms Palin is so fun listening or watching.I found a great relaxation in watching her different interviews because she make me laugh big time.What is she talking about?can someone tell me please aaaaaaah very funny VP Palin.

  • It's like watching a room full of dancers and there's that one that is not keeping the beat. What the hell does she hear when he asks her a question?

  • Palin is a goddamned idiot...lol at republican sheep who support her dumb ass!

  • Im sorry but... you guys really need to grip you govt by the fuckin balls.... this is a shambles of a running mate

  • Our next VP? God help us. Even the possibility is utterly absurd. She will go down in flames during the VP debates and, bringing with her, McCain's campaign.

  • she is such a joke....

  • The first debate:

    Obama was giving sometimes four excellent reasons for every answer he gave. McCain tried to use false emotion to confuse the actual point of the question, and to change the subject to the Iraq war all the time. America's been run by corporate crooks for the last eight years. That's evil, and it musn't be allowed to continue.

  • WHAT IS SHE DOESN'T EVEN ANSWER THE QUESTION. I don't think she answers one question straight. In the entire interview.

  • This bitch is dumb

  • holy fucking shit does she have ADD?

  • You will feel a cold chill running down your spine....as McCain and

    Palin assume control of the nuclear trigger.

  • lol, Palin is dumb.

  • who ever supporting meccian and this " THING " i personally considering them against our country and the whole world !!!!!!!

  • Wow. Energy IS the foundation of national security. Priceless

  • is A foundation not THE foundation, as in one of, that is a whole different meaning.

  • Obama didn't use affirmative action to get into college, this documented.

  • OMG! 2 Funny!

    Maybe she could get a waitress job?

  • I can't stop laughing at her still trying to defend being near Russia as "foreign policy experience." Anyone that is wondering why we're facing so many problems as a nation right now, needs to understand that dumb people are averse to smart people, and would rather vote for a fellow dumb person. The republican party of today doesn't hesitate to quickly offer up Quayle, W. Bush, and now Palin. It's good she didn't say anything intelligent in those interviews, they might have lost the idiot vote.

  • Sarah needs to go to the corner.

  • She IS answering the questions. Do you want one word, monosyllabic answers? She's a very intelligent person!

  • Not hardly... She dropped out of 3 junior colleges... It took her 8 years to get her bachelor's degree.... yea.

  • She didnt need affirmative action special priviliges to get into college like Obama did.

  • The assumption that every person of color who is successful has somehow benefited from affirmative action and "special privileges is unfair and insulting and, quite frankly it's getting old. We are criticized if we don't succeed and then we are accused of having an unfair advantage when we do. (Then,of course, if we point out the hypocrisy we are accused of whining.) Even IF Obama received any benefit, it was his brain that allowed him to graduate from Harvard Law Magna Cum Laude.

  • I never said "every person of color" I just said Barack al-Hussein Obama got special treatment.

  • Oh pardon me. I'll change the sentence to: The assumption that A person of color who is successful has somehow benefited from affirmative action and "special privileges is unfair and insulting and, quite frankly it's getting old. That better? And if you are going to include his beautiful Arabic middle name, at least do it correctly - Barack Hussein Obama II.

  • You ignorant slut. I didnt assume Barack al-HUssein Obama used affirmative action to get into college because he's black. I said he used affirmative action because he did.

  • I'll repeat: Even IF Obama received any benefit, it was his BIG BLACK brain that allowed him to graduate from Harvard Law Magna Cum Laude.

    Ignorant slut? Resorting to insults? Tsk Tsk. I must have hit a nerve.

  • Yopu know what? You stinkin liberals are out of luck. There are good people in powerful positions in Florida and Ohio who will make sure McCain wins. Those two states will decide the election. They saved us last time, and they will again.

  • You might want to check the latest polls in Florida and Ohio, sweetie. Those "good people in powerful positions" seem to be slowly losing their grip. You might want to check out Pennsylvania and Michigan too, while you're at it.

  • Dont make no difference what the polls are. Gore and Kerry lead in polls in those states and lost the elections. Obama will be taken care of.

  • Yeah Yeah. I know. I know. Polls never matter when you're behind or losing points.

  • Mcccain might win OHIO and FLORIDA...but OBAMA wins COLO, Missouri, Virginia, Penn, Mich, and New MEX...which wins him the nomination by my math.....u heard it hear 1st.

  • Let me tell you something, you moron. I know someone on the elections board in Florida, and he says dont worry, no matter what the polls say, no matter what the votes are, McCain will win. There are people with too much invested in this country to let Obama win. The votes dont count. The people who COUNT the votes are what matters.

  • the people who count the votes are what matters???.....so u have a friend in FLORIDA who might be 'in the know' of an outcome in one Florida county...& he thinks he can predict the outcome of the entire country??....u enjoy drinking that KOOL-AIDE.... email me 5 wks from today when MCCAIN loses the electoral tally by 50+ votes and 6% pts nationwide.

  • Han: You are correct Han. McCain cleans up in Florida AND PA. Most people dont realize that Bush would have swept the FL. panhandle which did NOT Vote Because Algore conceeded BEFORE THE Poll closed by nearly 2 hours. Hands Down and the Panhandle will NOT make this mistake again. AND Algore should be ASHAMED at what he did to this Nation in the name of Dirty Politics! McCain/Bush/Palin Win Big this year. It may be that McCain takes Indiana the same way Algore LOST in his "homestate" Tennessee!

  • you do know that out there in the world, we're totally terrified of the prospect of this amateur possibly being a Commander in Chief. Dont be a dumbshit and vote for her because you identify with the fact she's single mother underachiever. It's too important for that bullshit.

  • What the hell do you mean by "single mother underachiever"? She is not a single mother, she's married. Underachiever??? huh?

  • Gibson is an ass. She doesnt have foreign relations experience, but neither does Obama. Nobody would question Obama in this manner. For that matter, Clinton , Reagan, Carter, and most presidents didnt have foreign experience. Thats what you have advisors for.

  • You know. I would agree with you if it weren't for the fact that the McCain camp made such a big fucken deal out of Obama's total lack of foreign experience. They go ahead and pick Palin who has nothing, but the worst part is that they try to justify it by saying "Alaska is next to Russia so she has foreign policy experience." Right... So Palin must also be an expert when it comes to Santa Clause, since you know, they must have good relations since the North Pole is so close.

  • Gosh, I hate to burst your bubble:

    Santa Clause was a real person, but he's just a figurehead now. He's not really doing that whole Christmas-delivery-by-sleigh deal.

    Putin -- however -- is VERY REAL...and when you live next door to him and have to respond to foreign invasion of your air space, I guarantee, you're very aware of it! You're right: she hasn't sat down at a table to create foreign policy with him. Neither has Obama. He was too busy voting to raise taxes and kill babies.

  • Exactly!

  • energy industry = credentials to national security

    good on her

    haha wow it feels good to be canadian

  • Part of National Security IS being independent of foreign oil. She's absolutely 100% right! Our energy resources ARE foundational to national security. If a country loses it's energy source, chaos! We need our own independent means of producing energy. (Solar!!!)

    Btw: I'm glad you're Canadian, too.

  • Correct. You don't need a history book to see the resounding success of the Reagan Presidency. If only we had more great men like him, this country would be better off.

  • really........??????????

  • is she not the hottest thing you have ever seen???

    WOWZA!!!!!!

  • Would you rather die fast and painless, or suffer for years like a cancer patient?

  • i am sick of politicians who don't answer questions directly... she sounds childish. Palin should be made vice president of my daughters pre-school.

  • I love this guy. This shows how stupid and inexperienced she is, she is tring to dance around Charles Gibson's questions, . . . Palin . . . He is better than you are at this.

  • WTF is she talkin about?!!!

  • You don't need a history book to see what the Reagan legacy was. One look at Iraq, Afghanistan, and even Russia today shows that he (nor his followers) ever COMPLETED any of the elements of their foreign policy agenda and we're still busy cleaning up his mess today.

  • Didn't sound like a gaffe to me but I am sure she is just the same as every other idiot out there. It's all a game, why bang your head against the wall trying to figure it out?

  • Vote fo: JOHNA MCCAINA!!!!!!!!

    Russia - Moscow

    Правозащитник демократ Руслан Бровкин.

  • What scares me is that people buy into Palin's nonsense. I think it's just because she's mildly attractive. She has no credentials and there's a good chance she would take office because McCain is old as shit and even if he doesn't die, he might get Alzheimer's or become senile or get shipped off to Shady Acres. He might just get lost on his way back from bingo. God help us all if Obama doesn't win.

  • No, I'm not for the collapse of our fiscal systems. But I'm not about to be intellectually dishonest enough to blame poor people for the problems created by a bunch of BILLIONAIRES. When there is COLOSSAL failure, it is those who ABUSED their influence that typically caused it. Poor Americans are not in a position to control their own financial resources let alone the ENTIRE COUNTRIES and even effect those of the ENTIRE WORLD. But if it makes you feel better to hate on poor people, you do that.

  • And how did those crooks become BILLIONARES??? By exploiting low income people, putting them into homes they couldnt afford, F&F buying up loans NOBODY in their right minds would ever take on, and skimming BILLIONS off the top. Thank you Raines and Johnson...Obama operatives. Poor Americans have the SAME RESPONSIBILITY to control their own financial resources as the rest of us. What planet do you come from?? It was Clinton/Carter who were "hating on poor people" for political/monetary gain.

  • Play your race baiting/class baiting games someplace else.

  • what color is the sky in your world?

  • The 80's just called. They want their big hair bands back. Good luck with that, jasper.

  • PALIN took six years at five schools to obtain a four year degree in Journalism. She has no experience, nor education in History or Constitutional Law. You can not seriously consider her for the second highest office in the land, let alone a heartbeat away from the Presidency.

    McCAIN, like BUSH, graduated at the bottom of his class (894 out of 897!). Both men are NOT fit to be President.

    AMERICA DESERVES THE BEST AND BRIGHTEST-

    NOT THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL!

    VOTE OBAMA'O8!!!

  • Obama has less experience than Palin does and he's running for president.You can't just hand the presidency over to some lightweight who wants to have tea and crimpets with Genghis Khan. Get reality dude.

  • Dude, I think you need to check your eyes or your brain because I think one of them is malfunctioning.

    Palin and Obama have the same amount of years in government.

    Why does it matter how much experience they have anyway? The fact is, Obama and Biden are way better candidates and brighter than that old dude who is about to croak about now and that Alaskan hillbilly woman he's running with..

    And that's the truth.

  • Is this the reasoning of the "tolerant" left? Using ageism, sexism, and racism to promote their empty-suit candidates? How quickly the party of the enlightened and tolerant reach the end of their pitiful ropes.

  • Palin's "reforming the government" is just yet ANOTHER LIE.

    Sarah Palin is so full of it.

    Of course, they always change the subject when they can't answer.

    THIS PALIN IS AN IDIOT. "I can see Russia from my house in Alaska"

    Isn't that enough foreign relations experience needed to be 2nd in command of the leaders of the free world?

    It's not? Well, you are just sexist.

  • But, if the federal govt is going to act like a business, should we be "buying up" (which is what bailing out is) comapnies that are actually PROFITABLE like EXXON. Why would the US FEDERAl GOVERNMENT, Inc. acting on behalf of it's stockholders (ie taxpayers) buy failed companies. Are we thinking of short selling or selling America short?

  • So, you support the collapse of the American economy? Very telling indeed.

  • If the GOVT was not bailing these billionaires out, there would be NO NATURAL CORRECTION we would have had a 1000 point loss this week. It's not doom and gloom to suggest that the system collapses were due to TOO MUCH MERGING and LACK OF REGULATION and the recovery was do to a massive NATIONALIZING effort by the govt not buy ANYTHING Wall Street did. If NATIONALIZING is your answer for sound economic policy, then BRING IT ON.

  • Correct. The correction would lead to collapse. Thats why they bailed it out. But who created the F&F mess??? Carter/Clinton/Congress. Thank them for their corruption and crappy policy, and wasting our money on people who didnt deserve to own houses. There is plenty of regulation to go around. Its just ALL BAD REGULATION. The answer is to publicly hang these bastard Democrats who were skimming millions off the top, and who refused to address the problem when there was still time to do so.

  • If the market could correct itself then it should not accept a bailout from the govt. If it does than the govt just becomes another corporation. Since it was treasury funds that baacked the HEAVY int'l investment in Freddie and Fannie anyway, why not run it like a company. So what kind of company is the American Federal Govt, INC. if it only buys failed business and not profitable ones? The failed businessman BUSH is doing his stockholders (ie. us) a disservice w/ his choices as CEO of America.

  • And if you believe that, then you believe in letting the economy collapse. F&F should NEVER have been associated with government. Thats why its become so disasterous. Because the liberals used their social engineering subterfuge to loot the pockets of the American people to the tune of BILLIONS. These same crooks Raines and Johnson who ran F&F into the ground are picking Obama's VP and running his campaign. CORRUPTION anyone?

  • she looks so tense.

    palin brings the lols

  • When asked about the Bush Doctrine, Sarah Palin gives the ole' Alaska "MOOSE IN HEADLIGHTS look," then starts to babble like crazy about something she knows nothing about. Send her back to the PTA and put her in charge of assigning who brings the cupcakes and who brings the cookies & of course how many of each are needed for the next meeting! A task of this nature is abt her speed; certainly NOT VP of the USA. She asked herself "Can anyone tell me exactly what does a VP do all day anyway?"

  • For 26 years, John McCain ran as a deregulator and all of a sudden, he is a regulator. Give me a break. John McCain is fake like a three dollar American bill.

    Palin has a BS in Journalism from Idaho. Nothing wrong with Idaho, just the BS is too low compared to Obama and Biden's law degrees.

  • Most Americans live on a razor thin budget. They leverage themselves to the point that one slight variable changing in their fiscal life (say gas prices go up) and everything else falls like dominos. Certain bills can't be paid when other bills are up to 2-3Xs more costly than the average American was prepared to pay. On top of that, during the Bush years REAL INCOME for the average family is down $2000. That's a couple mortgage payments and is the diffence between ownership and foreclosure.

  • No, most Americans are responsible adults who work hard every day and pay their bills. But when Clinton and his cronies make millions off of getting people into homes they can't afford, and we begin to see forclosures (less than 1%) all of a sudden Americans are "on a razor thin budget". Wrong. A few Americans bit off more than they could chew because of the lending mess created by Clinton/Carter, and now we are reaping the benefits.

  • I'm tired of dealing with a fool and a fake conservative who cannot nor will not take responsibilities for their party's own failures. AGAIN, if Bush was a Democrat, you would, rightfully, blame him for his SERIES of FOREIGN and DOMESTIC POLICY blunders. THERE is not ONE SINGLE BUSH policy that has been fully successful that has seen a successful outcome to FRUITIION. A surge where we bribe people to no shoot at us in a war that was declared "accomplished" 5 years ago does not count.

  • No. You are tired of dealing with the TRUTH. You can't respond intellectually to my points, so you resort to party politics, name-calling and demonization. Underwhelming. I lay blame where it belongs. Bush is a REPUBLICAN and I publicly point out his screw-ups when I disagree with his policy (which is quite often). But the mortgage lending mess belongs to Carter/Clinton/Congress, NOT Bush. Your innane comment about Bush policy could be applied to ANY president. Review your DNC talking points.

  • Reagan GUTTING unions and the subsequent rapid decline of the average American's income only supplemented by a steady increase in personal debt is and will destroy our ability to compete. The fact that corporatinns started behaving like the over-indulgent get something-for-nothing average American is the LOGICAL CONCLUSION of AMERICAN CONSUMERISM (because capitalism in any real form has been long abandoned by American economic leaders since WWII. It's the system silly, not one specific party.

  • When a liberal is in doubt...lie and blame Reagan. Reagan cut taxes, spending, regulation and created one of the largest periods of growth in the nations history, while defeating the Russians at the same time. Your sense of history is severely damaged. And so is your view of the market. It corrects itself. Just as gas prices are correcting themselves. The market closed on Friday UP for the month. A lesson for those out their to keep cool and trust the market. You doom & gloomers make me laugh.
