Default Sarah Palin Demonstrates She Knows Nothing

Sarah Palin demonstrates why she isn't holding press conferences...this
ditz knows less than nothing.


One-On-One With Sarah Palin
NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2008(CBS) When CBS News anchor Katie Couric sat down
for an exclusive interview with vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin
Wednesday, she focused on the economy - but also addressed reports that
the lobbying firm of Sen. John McCain's campaign manager received
payments from the controversial mortgage giant Freddie Mac until last
month. Couric asked for her reaction to that.


Sarah Palin: My understanding is that Rick Davis recused himself from
the dealings of the firm. I don't know how long ago, a year or two ago
that he's not benefiting from that. And you know, I was - I would hope
that's not the case.

Katie Couric: But he still has a stake in the company so isn't that a
conflict of interest?

Palin: Again, my understanding is that he recused himself from the
dealings with Freddie and Fannie, any lobbying efforts on his part
there. And I would hope that's the case because, as John McCain has been
saying, and as I've on a much more local level been also rallying
against is the undue influence of lobbyists in public policy decisions
being made.

Next, Couric asked about the $700 billion government bailout of bad debt
- and whether she supports it.

Palin: I'm all about the position that America is in and that we have to
look at a $700 billion bailout. And as Sen. McCain has said unless this
nearly trillion dollar bailout is what it may end up to be, unless there
are amendments in Paulson's proposal, really I don't believe that
Americans are going to support this and we will not support this. The
interesting thing in the last couple of days that I have seen is that
Americans are waiting to see what John McCain will do on this proposal.
They're not waiting to see what Barack Obama is going to do. Is he going
to do this and see what way the political wind's blowing? They're
waiting to see if John McCain will be able to see these amendments
implemented in Paulson's proposal.

Couric: Why do you say that? Why are they waiting for John McCain and
not Barack Obama?

Palin: He's got the track record of the leadership qualities and the
pragmatism that's needed at a crisis time like this.

Couric: But polls have shown that Sen. Obama has actually gotten a boost
as a result of this latest crisis, with more people feeling that he can
handle the situation better than John McCain.

Palin: I'm not looking at poll numbers. What I think Americans at the
end of the day are going to be able to go back and look at track records
and see who's more apt to be talking about solutions and wishing for and
hoping for solutions for some opportunity to change, and who's actually
done it?

Couric: If this doesn't pass, do you think there's a risk of another
Great Depression?

Palin: Unfortunately, that is the road that America may find itself on.
Not necessarily this, as it's been proposed, has to pass or we're going
to find ourselves in another Great Depression. But, there has got to be
action - bipartisan effort - Congress not pointing fingers at one
another but finding the solution to this, taking action, and being
serious about the reforms on Wall Street that are needed.

Couric: Would you support a moratorium on foreclosures to help average
Americans keep their homes?

Palin: That's something that John McCain and I have both been discussing
- whether that ... is part of the solution or not. You know, it's going
to be a multi-faceted solution that has to be found here.

Couric: So you haven't decided whether you'll support it or not?

Palin: I have not.

Couric: What are the pros and cons of it do you think?

Palin: Oh, well, some decisions that have been made poorly should not be
rewarded, of course.

Couric: By consumers, you're saying?

Palin: Consumers - and those who were predator lenders also. That's, you
know, that has to be considered also. But again, it's got to be a
comprehensive, long-term solution found ... for this problem that
America is facing today. As I say, we are getting into crisis mode here.

Couric: You've said, quote, "John McCain will reform the way Wall Street
does business." Other than supporting stricter regulations of Fannie Mae
and Freddie Mac two years ago, can you give us any more example of his
leading the charge for more oversight?

Palin: I think that the example that you just cited, with his warnings
two years ago about Fannie and Freddie - that, that's paramount. That's
more than a heck of a lot of other senators and representatives did for us.

Couric: But he's been in Congress for 26 years. He's been chairman of
the powerful Commerce Committee. And he has almost always sided with
less regulation, not more.

Palin: He's also known as the maverick though, taking shots from his own
party, and certainly taking shots from the other party. Trying to get
people to understand what he's been talking about - the need to reform
government.

Couric: But can you give me any other concrete examples? Because I know
you've said Barack Obama is a lot of talk and no action. Can you give me
any other examples in his 26 years of John McCain truly taking a stand
on this?

Palin: I can give you examples of things that John McCain has done, that
has shown his foresight, his pragmatism, and his leadership abilities.
And that is what America needs today.

Couric: I'm just going to ask you one more time - not to belabor the
point. Specific examples in his 26 years of pushing for more regulation.

Palin: I'll try to find you some and I'll bring them to you.

Good luck, Sarah.

Sarah Palin is being careful. She knows that anything she says will
be construed as a lie, so she has out smarted the media again, by
saying I will get the information and give it to you.

Just about everything Palin says is a lie. The reality here is that she
simply does not know anything.

Good luck, Sarah.

What is important is her reasoning ability, principles, and allegiance
to the Constitution and the People.
It is an advantage, for the People to not be indoctrinated by the
elites. You can hire experts for a dime a dozen.
We want vision, zeal, and a commitment to our Republic not Globalist Big
Business, and other predators.

We've already had our eight years of Idiot Bush...we sure as hell don't
need X years of Idiot Palin if McCain is elected and dies.

Palin actually seems less knowledgeable than Bush, and is even more
likely to make all the wrong decisions.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2008(CBS) When CBS News anchor Katie Couric sat
down for an exclusive interview with vice presidential nominee Sarah
Palin Wednesday, she focused on the economy - but also addressed
reports that the lobbying firm of Sen. John McCain's campaign manager
received payments from the controversial mortgage giant Freddie Mac
until last month. Couric asked for her reaction to that.


Sarah Palin: My understanding is that Rick Davis recused himself from
the dealings of the firm. I don't know how long ago, a year or two
ago that he's not benefiting from that. And you know, I was - I would
hope that's not the case.

Katie Couric: But he still has a stake in the company so isn't that a
conflict of interest?

Palin: Again, my understanding is that he recused himself from the
dealings with Freddie and Fannie, any lobbying efforts on his part
there. And I would hope that's the case because, as John McCain has
been saying, and as I've on a much more local level been also
rallying against is the undue influence of lobbyists in public policy
decisions being made.

Next, Couric asked about the $700 billion government bailout of bad
debt - and whether she supports it.

Palin: I'm all about the position that America is in and that we have
to look at a $700 billion bailout. And as Sen. McCain has said unless
this nearly trillion dollar bailout is what it may end up to be,
unless there are amendments in Paulson's proposal, really I don't
believe that Americans are going to support this and we will not
support this. The interesting thing in the last couple of days that I
have seen is that Americans are waiting to see what John McCain will
do on this proposal. They're not waiting to see what Barack Obama is
going to do. Is he going to do this and see what way the political
wind's blowing? They're waiting to see if John McCain will be able to
see these amendments implemented in Paulson's proposal.

Couric: Why do you say that? Why are they waiting for John McCain and
not Barack Obama?

Palin: He's got the track record of the leadership qualities and the
pragmatism that's needed at a crisis time like this.

Couric: But polls have shown that Sen. Obama has actually gotten a
boost as a result of this latest crisis, with more people feeling
that he can handle the situation better than John McCain.

Palin: I'm not looking at poll numbers. What I think Americans at the
end of the day are going to be able to go back and look at track
records and see who's more apt to be talking about solutions and
wishing for and hoping for solutions for some opportunity to change,
and who's actually done it?

Couric: If this doesn't pass, do you think there's a risk of another
Great Depression?

Palin: Unfortunately, that is the road that America may find itself
on. Not necessarily this, as it's been proposed, has to pass or we're
going to find ourselves in another Great Depression. But, there has
got to be action - bipartisan effort - Congress not pointing fingers
at one another but finding the solution to this, taking action, and
being serious about the reforms on Wall Street that are needed.

Couric: Would you support a moratorium on foreclosures to help
average Americans keep their homes?

Palin: That's something that John McCain and I have both been
discussing - whether that ... is part of the solution or not. You
know, it's going to be a multi-faceted solution that has to be found
here.

Couric: So you haven't decided whether you'll support it or not?

Palin: I have not.

Couric: What are the pros and cons of it do you think?

Palin: Oh, well, some decisions that have been made poorly should not
be rewarded, of course.

Couric: By consumers, you're saying?

Palin: Consumers - and those who were predator lenders also. That's,
you know, that has to be considered also. But again, it's got to be a
comprehensive, long-term solution found ... for this problem that
America is facing today. As I say, we are getting into crisis mode here.

Couric: You've said, quote, "John McCain will reform the way Wall
Street does business." Other than supporting stricter regulations of
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac two years ago, can you give us any more
example of his leading the charge for more oversight?

Palin: I think that the example that you just cited, with his
warnings two years ago about Fannie and Freddie - that, that's
paramount. That's more than a heck of a lot of other senators and
representatives did for us.

Couric: But he's been in Congress for 26 years. He's been chairman of
the powerful Commerce Committee. And he has almost always sided with
less regulation, not more.

Palin: He's also known as the maverick though, taking shots from his
own party, and certainly taking shots from the other party. Trying to
get people to understand what he's been talking about - the need to
reform government.

Couric: But can you give me any other concrete examples? Because I
know you've said Barack Obama is a lot of talk and no action. Can you
give me any other examples in his 26 years of John McCain truly
taking a stand on this?

Palin: I can give you examples of things that John McCain has done,
that has shown his foresight, his pragmatism, and his leadership
abilities. And that is what America needs today.

Couric: I'm just going to ask you one more time - not to belabor the
point. Specific examples in his 26 years of pushing for more regulation.

Palin: I'll try to find you some and I'll bring them to you.

Good luck, Sarah.

What is important is her reasoning ability, principles, and allegiance
to the Constitution and the People.
It is an advantage, for the People to not be indoctrinated by the
elites. You can hire experts for a dime a dozen.
We want vision, zeal, and a commitment to our Republic not Globalist
Big Business, and other predators.



We've already had our eight years of Idiot Bush...we sure as hell don't
need X years of Idiot Palin if McCain is elected and dies.

Palin actually seems less knowledgeable than Bush, and is even more
likely to make all the wrong decisions.




Her instincts have proven better than the pragmatic pro Globalism
records of Bidden. Obama hasn't made any decisions. He's voted present
many times. He spent all his time running for President. He may have
excellent judgment but he has not shown any allegiance to anything other
than getting elected.

No. Palin said "I'm ill about the postion that America is in..."

Where did you get this text? ABC?

If so, if figures as they, and especially Couric, never get what
anyone else but themselves are saying.

And as Sen. McCain has said unless this
nearly trillion dollar bailout is what it may end up to be, unless there
are amendments in Paulson's proposal, really I don't believe that
Americans are going to support this and we will not support this. The
interesting thing in the last couple of days that I have seen is that
Americans are waiting to see what John McCain will do on this proposal.
They're not waiting to see what Barack Obama is going to do. Is he going
to do this and see what way the political wind's blowing?


Which is exactly what he did: "If I'm needed..."!!!

What a jerk! Doesn't that guy work?

He's the best reason yet why persons in public office should resign
their jobs before looking for an other one endlessly while on the
public's dime.

...They're
waiting to see if John McCain will be able to see these amendments
implemented in Paulson's proposal.


Couric: Why do you say that? Why are they waiting for John McCain and
not Barack Obama?


Because according to your own report dimwit, McCain has suspended his
campaigning to go back to D.C. to do his job, while Obama announced he
won't!

Palin: He's got the track record of the leadership qualities and the
pragmatism that's needed at a crisis time like this.


Couric: But polls have shown that Sen. Obama has actually gotten a boost
as a result of this latest crisis, with more people feeling that he can
handle the situation better than John McCain.


From where? Obama said he's not going to quit campaigning to do his
job.

Palin: I'm not looking at poll numbers. What I think Americans at the
end of the day are going to be able to go back and look at track records
and see who's more apt to be talking about solutions and wishing for and
hoping for solutions for some opportunity to change, and who's actually
done it?


Couric: If this doesn't pass, do you think there's a risk of another
Great Depression?


Caught in your own LIE!

Just moments before in the ABC Evening News broadcast Couric, while
interviewing McCain, surprised McCain saying that that was what Palin
had said!

Palin: Unfortunately, that is the road that America may find itself on.
Not necessarily this, as it's been proposed, has to pass or we're going
to find ourselves in another Great Depression. But, there has got to be
action - bipartisan effort - Congress not pointing fingers at one
another but finding the solution to this, taking action, and being
serious about the reforms on Wall Street that are needed.


Couric: Would you support a moratorium on foreclosures to help average
Americans keep their homes?


And close the banks?

Palin: That's something that John McCain and I have both been discussing
- whether that ... is part of the solution or not. You know, it's going
to be a multi-faceted solution that has to be found here.


Couric: So you haven't decided whether you'll support it or not?


That's what Palin said dimwit!

Palin: I have not.


Couric: What are the pros and cons of it do you think?


Don't you ever give up Couric? Your such a biased little twit.

Palin: Oh, well, some decisions that have been made poorly should not be
rewarded, of course.


Couric: By consumers, you're saying?


Palin: Consumers - and those who were predator lenders also. That's, you

You just reported yourself that Obama is NOT going to shut his mouth
and suspend the campaign to ACT in Washington.

Can you give me
any other examples in his 26 years of John McCain truly taking a stand
on this?


Palin: I can give you examples of things that John McCain has done, that
has shown his foresight, his pragmatism, and his leadership abilities.
And that is what America needs today.

Good luck, Sarah.


Sarah Palin is being careful. *She knows that anything she says will
be construed as a lie,...


Correct, but trying to ascertain Couric's lying!

"...the Great Depression..."

... so she has out smarted the media again, by
saying I will get the information and give it to you.


The media's Couric and the ABC News Producers are blind to their own
prefabrications to deliberately skewer the election in favor of their
beloved Obama! "If this doesn't pass, do you think there's a risk of
another Great Depression?"!!!

Latest update. A major breakthrough in the bailout negotiations is
announced by Barney Frank, the nutcase from the nutcase capital,
Massachusetts.

Announcement is made shortly after McCain says he's coming back to DC to
help.

This isn't politically motivated?

Palin: I think that the example that you just cited, with his warnings
two years ago about Fannie and Freddie - that, that's paramount. That's
more than a heck of a lot of other senators and representatives did for us.

Couric: But he's been in Congress for 26 years. He's been chairman of
the powerful Commerce Committee. And he has almost always sided with
less regulation, not more.

Palin: He's also known as the maverick though, taking shots from his own
party, and certainly taking shots from the other party. Trying to get
people to understand what he's been talking about - the need to reform
government.

Couric: But can you give me any other concrete examples? Because I know
you've said Barack Obama is a lot of talk and no action. Can you give me
any other examples in his 26 years of John McCain truly taking a stand
on this?

Palin: I can give you examples of things that John McCain has done, that
has shown his foresight, his pragmatism, and his leadership abilities.
And that is what America needs today.

Couric: I'm just going to ask you one more time - not to belabor the
point. Specific examples in his 26 years of pushing for more regulation.

Palin: I'll try to find you some and I'll bring them to you.

Good luck, Sarah.


Sarah Palin is being careful. She knows that anything she says will
be construed as a lie, so she has out smarted the media again, by
saying I will get the information and give it to you.


If she thinks that anything she says will be construed as a lie, then
why did she agree to be interviewed at all? MOst people do interviews
in order to make thier case, not run from it.
