  • OBAMA IS THE MORON HERE, and all you left minded people, Nothings gotten any better, in fact it's gotten much worse for all of us, Obama has no idea what he's doing, And you have no idea what you're following. This nation needs change, I will give him that, We're under a shadow and it's gotten worse, and will keep getting worse until we decide to change it, don't vote him back into office, vote for sombody else, just not him, vote for sarah palin if she runs, she'd be a much better president.,

  • Palin actually said that abortion rights are an issue for the states to decide (states rights) but called herself a "federalist." LOLOL

  • OMG!

  • Katie is miles more qualified than Palin for V.P.

  • Sarah Palin:"...I am in that sense a federalist where I believe that States should have more say in the laws of their land lands" wtf? Check out Katie she looks so confused.

  • Palin is more interested in a "babys" life because she can have a chance making it conservative rather than a woman who chose to use her right of abortion, who obviously isnt.

  • It's hard to not laugh at everything she says.

  • JESUS CHRIST! SHE IS SO BAD IN HIDING IT! and if you see the whole couric interview, you would see that she needed hints on the different questions, and you dont see that part here. she is not stupid, but she is not prepared at all for VP.

  • Yea she's dumb but so are a large proportion of the American population. We get what we deserve and sadly Palin and her ilk will destroy America.

  • Does anyone here remember Dan Quayle? He was only picked to run with Bush Sr. because they thought he looked like Robert Redford and women would vote for him. Never mind that he was unqualified and dumb as a rock. It shows how little they think of womens intelligence. McCain picked Palin with the same logic, to appeal to the Hillary Clinton supporters. It didn't matter that she was stupid, just as long as she was female. If that does not exceed the definition of insulting, I don't know what does

  • Out of one million words, None made sense. Way to go United Stupid of America.

  • Comment removed

  • States SHOULD have more say in the laws of their lands. Go Palin!

  • if ur christian and very religous, DONT GET AN ABORTION. dont start dictating other people's bodies that might not me christian. SIMPLEEEEEEE

  • Forget about Palin for 2012!

    She should just do a Playboy centerfold, and then take care of her retarded kid and bastard grandchild!!!

  • is this real???? was that really her response??? she couldn't name a single supreme court case she disagreed with??? this has to be from saturday night live. I simply won't believe this is real. NOBODY is that stupid

  • @mymanhiggins Not knowing and not saying are two different things Junior. She said she disagreed with Roe V. Wade so she in fact DID name one that she disagreed with. But thats retarded right? Abortion is a right! Yeah, 30 million fetuses were aborted in America and many of them were past the age of viability. The felon B.J. Clinton vetoed congressional votes to end partial birth abortions, but Palin saying it should be the states right to determine the law is just "stupid" right?

  • MSM to Obama - How do you feel about your campaign, do you love your wife?

    MSM to Palin - How to you take apart a transmission?

  • These were the exact same line of questions. Biden did just fine, and Palin came off looking about as smart as her down-syndrome baby.

  • GAWD and they're talking about her running again now that's bloody scarey!

  • Anyone who's taken (and passed) a high school civics or history class should be able to answer any of these questions... yes, she is a moron, and obviously has no sense of shame or self-consciousness that as a GOVERNOR! she cannot answer any of these questions.

  • Sarah Palin will split the Republican vote and Barack Hussein Obama will

    be President for four more years!!!!!!

  • @AnnaAnnaYes You cant split the republican vote, she might split the conservative vote but if she runs as a republican she wont split SHIT.

  • The best thing in this video is thinking Biden the gaff machine's wife & kids were killed in a car accident. Thats what I call KARMA!

    Only a libtard can find "abortion" in the Constitution but say the "right to bear arms" isn't there! LOL! Fucking idiots!

    Gee, why didn't Katie ask Biden that question & push him on it? Fair & balanced huh?? LOL!

    Katie got where she is by spreading wide & bending over for the right MEN. Typical liberal woman. Palin got to where she is on character/creds.

  • I understand you disagree with Biden's politics but calling the death of Biden loved ones "karma" is sick, and you probally call your self christian and pro-life.

  • @flyboymd82 Sounds like you really know liberal women. Last I checked it was republicans arguing for how hot the women in their party are, guess not any more. Palin got to where she is by the republicans finding a way to pitch tents in a pinch.

    Support Sarah, fine. But don't ever consider yourself a real conservative.

  • Palin is purely PATHETIC! Her next book should be titled *PPP* {You down with PPP??} rofl

  • You libtards just can't let her go! I smell libtard fear! LOL!

    Nobody kicks a dead dog.

  • She has no opinion.

    She just gives a typical Republican response.

    "State, state, state, local. Federal bad."

  • it has nothing to do with state or federal... the question asked was if their were any cases in history in which Palin could mention where she agreed/disagreed with the ruling..... and she couldn't even think of one other than Roe v. Wade.... just like she didn't know what the Bush Doctrine was... or Africa being a continent.... I can't wait for the repubs 2012 candidates... keep em comin!!! lol

  • Good God!!! ....someone save this woman from the ignominy!!

  • I think the title of this video is guilty of sexism.

    Think about it: if I listen to Bush give an idiotic interview, I wouldn't segregate him to his sex and say "He's an insult to men". I'd say, "He's an incompetent president."

    Feminism isnt about all women being high-minded, and well-informed- it's about how society sees gender, and breaking down false distinctions.

    Calling Palin an insult to women since she performs horribly in this interview is creating a meaningless gender distinction.

  • yes

  • bluecatscanfly.

    Amen!

    To Couric:

    She says that privacy is the cornerstone of Roe v. Wade, which is true. However, she says that to go against what Palin's views are. However, privacy is not an issue for Palin or other Pro-Life thinkers. If a law was passed, centered on privacy, that a person had the right to beat their spouse/kids in private, most logical people wouldn't consider privacy an important factor in the discussion.

  • saying that the violence against women act meets the constitutional requirement of interstate commerce is a joke.

  • It's like when you're in school for debate. And this one kid gets up an got all his points in order and is calm and has really well thought out opinions and evidence to back it up. Then the more popular kid who probably needed to take the class to pass speaks and everything he/she says ends in "cool" and "Blankity blank school rules!". Sarah Palin is still stuck in that and I'm sad to see a lot of adults in America who followed douchebags like that in High School still do it in their adult life.

  • She is a moron.

    "In that respect I'm a federalist"

    federalists were against states rights. They wanted a stronger federal government. hence, federalist...

  • Pro life Pro God Pro Guns!!!!! PALIN 2012

  • Federalists wanted a stronger central government, but one still balanced with that of the states...THAT what she means you idiot.

  • @JediKenobix I think Sarah is referring to the modern definition of a federalist. In a unitarian system of government, most or all of the power resides within the federal government. In a confederacy, the power resides within the states. In a federalist system, there is a balance between the two. So saying that she is a federalist is saying that she wants a greater balance of power between the states and the federal government.

    But I still don't like her very much.

  • I can't stand listening to Palin speak. She waffles on and on and after a minute you realise she hasn't said anything at all. Aaargh! If you dont know, just say you don't know!

  • Sarah says she is pro life but I bet that after giving birth to a child with Downs Syndrome she will not have anymore children. Downs S. is natures way of telling a woman she is too old to give birth to a healthy child. So what method is Sarah using to not get pregnant? What does she say publicly about this?

  • I don't recall anyone saking Obama or Biden to name cases, so why would Sarah be required to know this crap? I personally, could care less.

  • Biden just talked about a case he dint agree with that he had a part in.... yes they did.

  • He was and talked about the violence against women act.

  • DId you miss the beginning of the video? Joe Biden answered the same question that Sarah Palin did.

  • Could Palin define what a Federalist is? Anyone?

  • WOW! I had no idea there were so many Red Diaper Doper Babys on the web.

    I wonder if all these fuckers are real are just a bunch of Jew Commies that work for CBS News, looking for a place to falsify response to some stupid shit they posted on Google Tube.

  • i am pro choice. Just because it is wrong to one person doesn't mean that it wrong to another. You do with your body as you please and your choice has nothing to do with mine. No man or government has the right to say what I can or can not do with my body. I personally would never put myself in a situation that would force me to choose.

    I believe in viability. If it can't live on its oun outside of the body without assistance then hey........

  • Gosh, I don't own a TV, so I never saw these types of things during the campaign. But this woman is as true as the character she's been made. She's an idiot...

  • life, liberty and property...or as YOU know it life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.. an automobile is property, still no mention of privacy. If you murder someone in private, you STILL murder someone.

    Sarah Palin AND Joe Biden did NOT mention a CASE. Dred Scott has been overturned, why would Sarah Palin, Joe Biden OR Barry Obama talk about it?

    Do research, educate yourself, don't count on media (FOXnews or CNN).

  • Thats Sarah Palin's real draw back -- not only is she apparently really a stupid woman for national office -- she has no clue she is stupid. She doesn't seem interested in learning what she doesn't know.

  • There is no right to a driver's license in the constitution either. There is no mention of automobiles.

    The Constitution allowed slavery, and slave rape, and allowed scum in the south to sell their own children, who came from the rape of the slaves.

    Don't get too hung up on the Constution, do whats right.

  • Is this Jack Ass, going to extend privacy to SPECIFICALLY WRITTEN RIGHTS like the second amendment. Or Search and Seizure.

    I think not!

    There is NO RIGHT TO an Abortion in the constitution.

  • Biden is a Fucking Commie Punk.

    Had these idiots been dealt with in 1968, we would not have the majority of class issue problems that Demo Communist use to justify their existence.

    Joe Biden is a parasite, that should be eliminated from the public dole. He is a Piece of Shit that hides behind crap like Womens Rights

  • May 2009 Sarah Palin approval rating in Alaska: 54% --now that the people of her state see how unintelligent she is and what an extreme liar she is they are turning on her. Palins state is #1 in Rapes, #1 in Alcoholism #1 in Meth Labs & #1 in Violence against women. Sarah Palin proudly exclaims her state has a balanced budget, guess that's easy to do when you fuck over an entire state.

  • tina fay would own that alaskan bitch if they ever have a debate, i think that says it all

  • a part of me feels sorry for her. anyone?

  • You can't be serious 0_0

  • Listening to Sarah Palin is committing scholastic suicide

  • Before anyone accuses my previous post of being "abusive" towards Sarah, consider this:

    Abuse is defined as "using someone or something in a way not normally intended".

    So to abuse Sarah Palin, you would have to fuck her in her pussy, get her pregnant, kiss her on the lips and tell her you love her.

    That is not the way she was normally intended to be used.

    The normal way to use her is to buttfuck her until she begs to "suck ass" so her asshole can get a 5 minute break.

  • I would love to sodomize Sarah Palin and force her to eat her own shit off my dick.

  • Sarah Palin is not smart, not even interested in expanding her knowledge, and not qualified to be on the City Council, much less be our Vice President. But you "men" who talk about raping her are more than disgusting, you're a criminal in waiting. Pull your head out of your ass and act like a human being, not a caveman. We can disagree with each other without resorting to violence. I can't stand her, but even joking about violence toward her or any other woman (or man) is reprehensible.

  • thats brilliant

  • sarah is a fucking idiot! I am so thanful/grateful that she is not our vp

  • I don't know why either side didn't mention this famous court decision which is Griswold v. Connecticut. The court upheld the right of privacy in which in my opinion the 5th and 9th Amendment infer of the right of privacy. The Supreme Court hasn't overturned that case. so the right of privacy cannot be violated unless you violated a law and they have enough evidence that you cannot use the 5th if you don't want to answer. Another court decision that I don't agree upon is Texas v. Johnson.

  • And also the 4th Amendment infers the right of privacy as well.

  • No, that would be the criminal sleaze Hil-liar-y that's an insult to women. Palin owns that bitch and always will.

  • What makes Hillary so special?

  • Hillary would have gave it to Sarah in the debate. Well maybe not because if Hillary was the VP McCain would not have picked Palin.

  • Biden's on-point.

    as usual.

    never mind the media narrative that

    he's gaffe prone..the man knows his shit!

  • You are absolutely right about Biden. I look at it this way, He has forgotten more than Palin knows.

  • palin's a MORON.

    (..in the BOZO sense of the word 'moron')

    couric rules.

    and so does TINA FEY!!!

  • I read that Palin also thought Africa was a country; in Newsweek.

    Oh well, won't have to worry about her anymore anyways. :)

  • @ayekappy That shows how credible Newsweek is huh??

    EARTH TO THE LIBERAL.

    Believing it, does not make it so.

    No matter how hard you try, at the end of the day facts are still facts and bullshit is bullshit.

  • @ayekappy says=" Oh well .we won't have to worry about her anymore anyways :)"

    ------------------

    Such wisdom........you lack!

    LOL

    You must be the ONLY demonrat that isn't scared to death of Palin.

    Palin can't fart without every lib demonrat hanging on any sound comming from her!

    LOL

  • @ekajeht The comment you're responding to is 2+ years old.

  • @IIoWoII Yes I know.

    I was showing how wrong liberals can be.

    @ayekappy proclaimed the end of Palin 2 years ago.

    Could he have been more wrong?

  • still can't understand what makes her think she can be the next vp...

  • Katie Couric owned this bimbo how many times now?

  • god shes dumb

    as governer of the worst state in america for like 16 months shes sooo qualified herself. who did she run against? herself?

    im not even a democrat and im embaressed to have sarah palin reperesenting us

    if she becomes president......

    oh god

  • Ding dong. Hello in there Sarah.

  • Palin: "the 50 states". HEY SHE NAILED THAT! Yep, there's 50.

  • Wow that was a horrible answer, Gov Palin! It sounds like my book report in 5th grade that I really didnt read!!!

  • SARAH PALIN should at the very least be censured as a Governor because of TROOPERGATE. Real justice would be an impeachment. Her actions and responsibility, and culpability, is just as great as SPIRO AGNEWS was in the whole WATERGATE fiasco and he had to leave office. SHE SHOULD BE IMPEACHED AS GOVERNOR. The republicans have learned a valuable lesson: you can't trade one vagina in a skirt for another. Palin is a vapid, ill-informed, ethically challenged mess.

  • ..whoa there, mate! As for me, I can't wait to send the silly girl back to alaska...

  • WE went to IRAQ for OIL. WE were lied to by BUSH/CHENY and were told SADDAM had these WMD's; and were told AMERICA was the target. TODD PALIN's connection with BP OIL is as dubious as CHENEY's HALIBURTON OIL connection. And it stinks of patronage. Haliburton made alot of money off the deaths of US SERVICEMEN and WOMEN. IF McCain knows how to catch OSAMA BEN LADEN (and he claims to know how and has a plain) WHAT THE FUCK IS HE WAITING FOR?? How many more US SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN have to DIE??

  • Isn't a federalist someone who wants to increase the size of the federal govt? Wouldn't her stance on Roe v Wade make her an Anti-Federalist?

  • Holy mother of god, This women is by far thy most mentally deficient politician on this earth. May god be with us =/

    OBAMA/BIDEN 08

  • palin needs to go home...

  • sarah palin rocks you haters

  • we are not voting for the next cool person in the united states who "rocks" this is not american idol, this is not dancing with the fucking stars wake the fuck up people why the fuck would u vote for Mkkkain/Palin!?!?!?!? besides O8ama is still cooler then both of them cats. and Mkkkains camp paid that bitch to go on tv and lie about a O8ama supporter attacking her and carving a b into her cheeks, fucking assholes!!

  • i love you too!

  • John McCain Accidentally Slams Sarah Palin, youtube it. and everyone reading this needs to youtube it.

  • And also search for: Saddam Rumsfeld. Those two were actually old buddies under Bush 1. The video clip you see is them making the deal for the chemical weapons. Saddam later used our chemical weapons on his own people.

  • thanks for the info, i knew we sold them chemical weapons after ronald regons election but i didnt really think about it till now. man this whole 9/11 shit was being planned long time ago, theres no telling how long these bastards have been planing it. yo check out my playlist, i have live footage from 9/11 that completely makes the bush administration look like liars and it makes the 9/11 commision report look like a fabricated piece of shit. spread the word brother the revolution is now.

  • Does anyone really believe that Sarah Palin is not out of her league? Let's be honest! The woman is an idiot!

  • exuse me?

  • Someone, PLEASE! Slap him up side the head. Dear god just spit it out. It's like fingers on a chaulk board. Obvious reasons why Obama is the presidential hopeful and Joe is a vp. My god even Katie was looking at her watch.

  • The human being has an average maximum attention span of 11 minutes.

  • And Sarah Palin has the attention span of a goldfish. 3 seconds tops.

  • So let me get this straight, she believes that the Federal government shouldn't have the power to control women's private lives but she believes that there should be a Constitutional Amendment telling certain people that they don't have the right to marry. I'm confused.

  • She was not asked about Day to Day issues, but asked for SPECIFIC Supreme Court Decisions. There is a difference. A person who is a lawyer will know CASES, a person who works in government and is not a lawyer may not. Would love to see answers from some Senator or Congressman who is NOT in the legal profession. Court Decisions are not that talked about in politics other than Roe V. Wade and that recent decision allowing property to be condemned for PRIVATE USE if it will benefit the public int's

  • I don't think that it's unreasonable to expect a knowledgeable, well-educated American to know about the pivotal points in American history, the general way in which democracy is practiced in America on a daily basis, and have a firm opinion on the matter, especially if he or she plans to be Vice President of the United States. Sarah Palin does not fit this description....

  • she is not worth debating. it is so very simply. don't have to explain or use big words. SHE IS PLAIN DUMB. She is DUMB. The woman is an idiot. GOD HAVE MERCY ON USA IF SHE AND OLD MACCAIN GET ELECTED.

  • lol God damn amerikkka, i hope these fools get elected so that amerikkka gose into a shit hole that they wont get out of!!

  • Palin only understands the consitution of Alaska, which is why she addressed the secessionist Alaska Independence Party earlier this year.

  • Biden wrote the "Violence Against Women Act." What did Sarah do? She fired the guy in alaska who was taking on domestic violence. Why? Because he wouldn't fire her x brother in law.

  • X Brother in law has been divorced 4 times and EACH TIME for abusing his spouse... LOL. Tasered his son.. geez.. nice post.

    The guy would have been fired in any other state. The guys who looked into this said that Palin had the right to fire him, Palin swears it was more about the budget problems.. but the good ol boy GOP guys, who she pissed off lynched her.

  • At the end, does she say "WOULDN'T be in a position of changing those things" or does she say "WOULD be..."?

    it's hard to hear her..and what a difference that would be!!!

  • We have Joe Biden not only understanding supreme court cases and explaining them, but involved in them.

    vs

    Palin who not only does not understand the first thing about the one supreme court case she disagrees with, but who fails entirely to know about any other cases, even the one that she was prepped and spoke out against only a short time before.

    We have teleprompter Barbie here folks, not a VP ready candidate.

  • OK what supreme court decision would YOU want to change? Quick.. you are in front of a National Audience and no time to think. Quick.

    Oooops. You did not answer fast enough.

  • Joe Biden came up with one.

    Hillary Clinton could have answered this question.

    Barack Obama TAUGHT the answers to this question.

    Seriously, if you do not know the law, how can you change it for the better?

  • Joe Biden is a lawyer, so is Obama.

    Hillary is a lawyer. So does that mean that ONLY LAWYERS can serve in government? I am sure that, that is what lawyers want. What scares you about Palin is that she is NOT a lawyer, she is as near a real middle class mother as we could have in the office and you believe that a middle class woman can not do the job. There in lies the problem. ONLY a middle class LIBERAL woman should run the country.. and only if she is Hillary.

  • The 2000 "appointment" by the Court of GW BUSH

    Just think how much netter off we would be without that one!

  • Yeah we might still have the right to own property without the government stealing it.

    Or the people of DC might not be able to own guns to defend themselves against home invaders.. Gee we really got hurt on that one.

    (That is a tongue in cheek comment by the way)

    Australia got rid of all guns in the home and the number of Home Invasions went up over 600%. They man not have any more school shootings but they now have every home in Australia living in fear.

  • JimDicken bought into the NRA scare tactic.

    Attorney-General Darryl Williams says what the NRA is doing is offensive. And if they used the correct statistics they'd find Australia's gun laws have been effective. In 1998 there were only 54 firearms homicides which was a significant reduction from the previous year.

  • My stats came from AUSTRALIAN Sources. If you do not believe them then go to my profile where I have delineated the stats and given the links to the stats. Australia FAILED.. So have laws in our biggest cities..and in 10 of our largest states. Gun Laws do not reduce crime or reduce assaults, or murders. John Stossel agrees with this and has reported it. HE is not a NRA lover he is a news man.

    You are proving your own ignorace in saying it is an NRA Scare Tactic. The NRA is offensive in its ways

  • Why don't you check out Canada's situation with restrictions on guns. They seem to have achieved a working balance where no one is afraid of either a gun lobby or a government, or a bunch of robbers with guns.

  • Palin is poor parent. I am digusted that she used her baby for a prop at the debate. It was late and the baby should of been home in its bed. And how about her delinquent daughter. I would like to invite Palin to explain how she has the time to take care of that little baby. Does Palin know what "special needs" mean. Am I the only one that sees this. This little baby needs its mommy right now, not a pitbull. Palin needs to see doctors and get counseling, and learn how to care for this child

  • who cares about her child? if a male politician has a special needs child, people wouldnt care. but because she is a woman people care. and as for her "delinquent daughter", palin cant run her daughters life. and you cant blame her for her childs actions. dont judge her because of her child and her parenting, judge her based on her being a politician.

  • Well said. However, with that being said, she's no politician who's qualified. She kind of like the girl who sleeps around to get where she wants. This is an embarrassment to women. Identify your issues, form a plan, and excute your plan. Don't just sleep or talk bs your way through.

  • SHAME on you again. Sleeping around? Give me a break. She is an honest politician. A VERY rare breed. She kicked out a corrupt GOP governor and prosecuted the Oil Board guys who were ripping off Alaskans. She may not have the experience of Biden, but she is honest and the closest thing to NEW in this campaign. A leader who is new enough not to be corrupted by the system she is close to being in charge of.

  • What a hypocrite you are. A woman can not have a child and still hold political office. You are talking like a GOP good ol boy. How dare you deny a woman her right just because she has a child. Would you also deny her the same pay as a Male VP?

  • ...no, but McCain would...JimDicken

  • Are you sure McCain would? HE is a soldier, not a lawyer. I only know a few that I disagree with, but I do not know the case law name. I disagree severely with the one that took the right to property away from people and gave it to cities so they could steal it and give it to other people..

    Since Alaska Governors do not deal with the court I would not expect them to know every Supreme Court decision. Palin is intelligent enough to get in the game as fast as say Obama who has no budget experienc

  • The lady asked a simple question to palin and Im sure she doesnot know any court cases...end of conversation....ohh man i can't believe Mcain chose this dumb biatch

  • In short, Governor Palin, you CAN'T name another Supreme Court ruling that you disagreed with. Even your discussion of Roe v. Wade demonstrates no deeper understanding.

  • To right-winged wacko's, Sarah Palin is a gleaming beacon of womanhood! Stupid, ignorant Barbie Doll with an ego-centric mean streak.

  • she says "i'm for a culture of life"... well, there goes the goth vote.

  • Does Palin not understand the Constitution overrides the states? She says the right of privacy is in the constitution but the states are more suitable to make the decision.... this is very sad.

  • Palin doesn't understand Jack Shit! She allowed Rape Victims in Alaska to pay for their own forensic tests.... But she can't seem to recall the name of ANY magazines she's ever read...she just read "whatever was put in front of me...." Gee Willikers! Say it isn't SO!!!

  • well that was just sad, how did she even raise her own kids, seriously? They must lead a very very sad life. I would hate myself if my mom were such a retard.

  • What a dumb bitch

  • Regardless of political background one would only have to agree that she is a worse public speaker than Bush.

  • Ouch I never thought a VP candidate can be this...intellegent...McCain/Pa­lin is one straight ticket to hell...

  • Huh, Biden didn't name Dred Scott either. I guess women are only REAL women if you can control what they think. If you have your own opinion, then you must not be a real woman. You must believe what the Left says you as a woman should believe or else you can't possibly be a woman. No having independent thoughts or ideas, Sarah. You must toe the leftist line or you will be disqualified as a female.

  • wow, muddled.

  • wow, muddled (ilovebassethounds).

  • The point is that she directly quoted the Dred Scott issue days before this interview, then couldn't even think of it again. It has nothing to do with her gender, but her intelligent recall, and her attention to detail.

    You must be daft if you think its a 'female' thing. Do you think we'd be more scared of "omg its a vagina" than we would be of a "omg its a black man?" Seriously now.

  • There is a history in The U.S. and in other countries of people saying that a person is not fit to lead because they are female. Those people are still out there and they will point to Palin, and say, "See we were right, women aren't qualified for politics." And many of the people who support her are supporting her only because she has a vagina. So it is about gender, but you are right in saying that it should not be. Stupid is stupid, male or female, and that should be the end of it.

  • So, I guess you're not familiar with NOW, National Organization for Woman, saying that they would defend and support any woman regardless of their beliefs, but when it came to Sarah Palin, NOW leaders attacked her saying, "well, she's more a conservative MAN than a woman" primarily due to the fact she thinks it's not a "right" for women to be able to eat their own young. A slew of other liberals have attacked her saying she wasn't a "real" woman because her beliefs didn't allign w/ liberalism.

  • Eat their own children? Wtf are you talking about? And what the heck does being a liberal have anything to do with being a 'real' woman? If you'd like to talk about fringe and special interest groups, it goes any way you like. There will always be some extremist talking about eating their young... (really now, where did THAT come from?) The simple truth is that these things have little effect on how the PEOPLE see her. She didn't need NOW's help to prove her own idiocy.

  • WOW! That explains a lot. I guess if you don't recognize an idiomatic expression when you see one, then I would have to wonder why you are questioning anyone else's intelligence level. Just because a person is a charismatic, proficient orator doesn't make them fully qualified to be a good president, either. Unfortunately, too many Americans have placed "speaks well in front of a crowd" much too high on the qualifications list of "What makes a Good President."

  • If someone can't handle an amiable Katie Couric, then yes, being able to speak to others makes a hell of a difference in the 'list' of qualifications.

    I asked where "eating babies" came from. Certainly you have a REAL example of NOW's absurd behavior? Or am I suppose to simply guess what NOW wants of her, and take your word on it. Asking for real (unexaggerated) examples is hardly too much to ask. It may be too much for you to give though.

  • 1st, if you saw the interview you'd know Katie Couric was not amiable. She abandoned her "America's Sweetheart" persona in favor of a nasty scowl & rather aggressive demeanor. Watch it objectively, you'll see. About "eating their young"-it's an idiomatic expression (look up the definition). NOW didn't say it, I did-in reference to the wholesale slaughter of a woman's own flesh & blood for the sake of not being inconvenienced by the life of another person-her own child.

  • Aha. So, in other words, I'm to look at Couric's interview "objectively" whilst you, in the same comment, refer to a biased personal view on someone ELSES healthcare issues. Somehow I should have psychically known your true meaning, but instead you've only proven yourself a hypocrite. Congratulations.

    Btw, it took quite the willpower not to laugh then and there, during the interview. If a 'scowl' is all she ended up with, kudos to Katie.

  • "healthcare issues"? What a nice euphamism for slaughtering an innocent child. Why aren't you concerned about the "healthcare issues" of the baby who is being dismembered?Why aren't you concerned for the "healthcare issues" of the woman who has to live the rest of her life w/ the knowledge that she killed her own child? What of the "healthcare" of the woman who is forevermore sterile & unable to have any other children as a result of a single induced abortion?

  • What you call "slaughter" is another persons saving grace. Its a private healthcare issue, and one the gov't doesn't belong in. Further, most abortions are done in the 1st trimester, and there is no "dismembered" fetus.

    Any woman that makes the choice lives with it, and you'll only hear from those who are told they should be guilty. Most go on with their lives, perfectly content. You hardly get a say in THEIR physical choice, and sterility is not a side effect, you fear-mongerer.

  • Not to mention, Biden AND Obama have made more than their fair share of speaking gaffes, but the MainStream Media manages to keep a lid on them pretty well.

  • They all do at times. Its a question of if they've given less than 10 interviews in total, and bombed the majority. A "gaff" is a one-time whoopsy, not a daily occurrance.

  • Joe Biden. All day, every day. Just let him blather on & he'll screw it up. Roosevelt on TV, really Joe? Uh, TV wasn't even invented yet. Doesn't really sound like the epitome of intelligence to me. And he's the competition to the one whose intelligence you're disparaging.

  • I will take someone with experience and the ability to form a complete sentence over someone with no experience and a belief that dinosaurs were around 4,000 years ago, any day, every day.

    And as I've already stated, every candidate will have their moments of idiocy. Its a matter of who climbs out of the pit of lunacy, and who wallows in it daily.

  • watch?v=0Jf17Yo7hBM

    and while you're watching it, compare (or contrast, really) Couric's smiling face and relaxed attitude to what she presented to Palin.

  • I've seen it. I wouldn't talk about it if I hadn't.

  • Dredd Scott decision was overturned. Not relevant to the discussion. Several Court cases and laws have made Dred Scott a moot point. Why should she mention it in this context when it is NOT relevant to what Katie Curic is asking??
