Well, fuck, the vice presidential candidate should know more about it than 'most people'.

'We don't normally talk about it in the press.' Can you believe he said that? What a nation of dipshits we are to buy this kind of crap. When the Bush doctrine first broke the news, these same pundits wore it out. Maybe in an attempt to get people to wear down and turn a deaf ear when it actually took more sisnister causes to heart (hint: Iraq.)

Palin is the stupidest idiot ever. Hopefully she never again holds an office.

Granted that she didn't know what the Bush doctrine was. But what shocked me from her reply was that she didn't even know the difference between a DOCTRINE & a VIEW. In the most dumbest way she says, "His world view". Thank God she didn't make it to 1600 Pensylvania Ave. And I hope and pray she never does. She'll spare the U.S. allot of mysery.

Just be honest Palin and say you don't know, Instead of giving all this bologna crap

@ScratchTT You said it correct.

While Charlie Gibson looks disdainfully at Palin, busy HE'S GETTING IT WRONG TOO! There is no debate over the"Bush Doctrine" w/regard to "pre-emptive" war. Pre-emptive war is when a country strikes first, as when an enemy is massed along its borders, poised to attack. It's accepted that every country has a right to strike in such an event. The B-Doctrine controversy concerns "preventive" war, something very different. Gibson, like 99% of the dumb people watching and laughing, is clueless. lol

If she does not then just say so...don't beat arround the BUSH. Don't blow smoke up the peoples ass..which is what she will do, if elected into office.

Charles Krauthammer, Washington Post, Sept 2008, who coined "Bush Doctrine" writes

"Yes, Sarah Palin didn't know what it is. But neither does Charlie Gibson. And at least she didn't pretend to know -- while he looked down his nose and over his glasses with weary disdain... In doing so, he captured perfectly the establishment snobbery and intellectual condescension that has characterized the chattering classes' reaction to {Palin}"

[BEERandWEED]

She should know AT THE VERY LEAST the superficial view of it, the the tip of the iceberg, NOT ``his view of the world``

The point was that McCain and palin were following in the footstepts of bush so why in the fucking world wouldn`t she know of it.

It`s alright to say that the average person wouldn`t know the basics or the details of it but she is running for fucking office, you would think that person (obviously not she) would know SOMETHING or have a valid opinion on the subject.
