Hardball: Williams/Todd Discuss the McCain/Palin Interview

[tmwtpbrent14]

Until poor people lose their victim/slave mentality and realize that no one in this country except for the dems is trying to keep them down, they will remain in the slum of despair they call life.

This country sees people rise out of poverty everyday, and it is never because the government pulled them out. It's because they furrowed their brow and said "I CAN DO THIS" and they worked their butt off without complaining and left all the rest of you people waiting on the govt in their dust.

this is why I don't like ABC - CBS - NBC - or FOX - if it is so exclusive and important then why not just air it totally? This is an advertisment ploy not journalism....it is a "leader" to get people to watch...something that entertainment producers would do which make up most of the major news producers - no journalism experience - PBS would have ran this uninterupted - if you are a true "news" program you would forget advertisers and air it - the network makes enough money to...ridiculous...

[chessmonk]

i noticed the marketing ploy too. But it's only fair to point out that you are making this comment on youtube, meaning they aren't getting any ratings or ad revenue from you anyway.

[prideventures]

I only get my information from PBS and multiple research.....I dont just check one source and do not repeat what others tell me...I own a Bible (my belief), Quran, and Torah, I have read them all and know what is in them rather than have someone tell me...I have read the constitution, have copies of the Federalist Papers, (own a copy from 1901) so I know what is in them instead of repeat what others tell me...this is the problem with us now because so many believe everything they see on TV

journalism is at the pont of nadir. Media has become prostitue and people working there are whore and Pimps.

[FansFiltration]

What is up with the low rating on this video? Are the repigs using a bot to vote low on this video?

[PussycatGoGo]

Yes

[waltermh111]

lol, idiot, she called akmadinijad (yeah, i know spelling is wrong) a dictator. He is the Iranian president right? The elected one? Or am i confusing names with another countries actual dictator?

If I am not wrong, thats already 1 point against her, and I havent seen the full interview yet (this video came before the interview video in order).

[mickyster]

what she doesnt know is that Ahmadenejad (i missed the spelling too) isn't the highest power in Iran, the Ayitola(maybe I missed the spelling here too) (supreme leader is)..she needs to do some basic readings just like me a non political figure. she is plain Dumb. what do u think?

[plago12]

I'm not sure about the spelling, but you are correct about Iran's power structure. I still don't think Palin is dumb, however. I think it's very stupid to have the two of them together. It feeds that idea that she can't do it on her own. I think she has been horribly "handled".

She does stink at interviews, however, and comes across as a talking point machine. Still, McCain 08 for me. But I don't hate Obama and will be thrilled if he gets elected.

[mickyster]

so what exactly are you motives for Voting? why do you want to vote for Mccain 08? is it because of "experience" 26 years in Corrupt Washington. or something else.

[plago12]

That's a loaded way to ask that question, isn't it?

During the great depression, one of the things that prolonged it, in my opinion, is raising taxes and increasing tariffs. Obama will raise taxes. He has very ambitious policy proposals and has not accounted for them.

Also, I am a former navy man, so it's very difficult to vote against a fellow sailor.

Ironically, I agree with Obama more on aspects of his foreign policy.

[mickyster]

Yes, I completely understand you. But unfortunately, you have to admit that he has long become a Politician.He has done the dirty works just like Obama all this time. I will not vote for either candidate.Gone are those days when Politicians used to inspire us. Now we have two groups of people, the Neo conservatives and the islamic radicals claiming to bring us peace,protecting us from terrorist attacks.Politicians for me are still managers, that's how I think things are run now Globally.

[conducta]

Great!!!

[klugyboy]

Once again, she can only do a "real" interview with a grownup present. Why does McCain have to be there!
