    All of us have done this from time to time. It's really no big deal. We will probably never know how she truly feels. My guess is that McCain's people are at this very moment drilling into her head answers to questions such as this.

    All in all this is just a tempest in a tea pot....the election is over. Twenty years from now she will be forgotten. In any case maybe she can make the best out of her 20 minutes of fame.....I wouldn't mine seeing a Playboy spread!
    It may or may not have been a tough question, but it's one I would expect a candidate for VP to be able to answer. Especially when the question was do you agree with it, not what it was.

    She was asked about the primary justification for the invasion of Iraq; the theory of preventative war when there is no attack imminent. It's also the driving force behind the current administration's foreign policy, and it's also fully supported by John McCain. The fact that she clearly didn't even know what it is...

    Ok ok. You guys are right.

    She should have just gave an answer. Then if it did not go over well, she could just change it. You know, like Obama does.


    If she is so stupid and McCain is so out of touch, why are Biden and Obama declining debates left and right?

    Oh, you mean like she did on Global Warming?

    Or like McCain going from "experience" to "change"?

    When is she going to tell everyone she was for the bridge to nowhere before she was against it?

    You can't really believe that can you? She was against it. What has she said on the Global Warming farce?

    As for her pastor, do you want to go there? Is he a racist who screwed another man's wife? I thought Obama said he appreciated McCain not questioning his 'Muslim faith'.

    Is religion back in play now?

    Is that inconceivable?

    Both their president and Al-Quaida say we and Israel are the root of all evil you know.

    Regarding the Bridge to Nowhere?

    "While running for governor in 2006, though, Palin backed federal funding for the infamous bridge, which McCain helped make a symbol of pork barrel excess."

    http://www.usatoday.com/news/politic...n-bridge_N.htm

    November 2005 - Congress kills the earmark for the bridge. Alaska still received the money.

    2006 - Sarah Palin runs for Governor as a supporter of the project (there is even video).

    September 2007 - Sarah Palin finally halts the plan, since it was now a state project.

    She still kept the money.

    Oh, and she's building a road to where the bridge would have been.

    "Meanwhile, Weinstein noted, the state is continuing to build a road on Gravina Island to an empty beach where the bridge would have gone -- because federal money for the access road, unlike the bridge money, would have otherwise been returned to the federal government."

    Iran is Shia. Al-Qaeda is Sunni. They don't play nice in the sandbox.

    While running for governor in September 2006, Palin assured the Ketchikan Chamber of Commerce she was all for the bridge.

    “The money that’s been appropriated for the project, it should remain available for a link, an access process as we continue to evaluate the scope and just how best to just get this done,” Palin said then, according to a story in the Ketchikan Daily News. “This link is a commitment to help Ketchikan expand its access, to help this community prosper.”

    “I think we’re going to make a good team as we progress that bridge project,” she told the audience.

    And in a written questionnaire for the Anchorage Daily News the following month, October of 2006, Palin was asked directly, “Would you continue state funding for the proposed Knik Arm and Gravina Island bridges?”

    Her answer: “Yes. I would like to see Alaska’s infrastructure projects built sooner rather than later. The window is now — while our congressional delegation is in a strong position to assist.”

    What has she said on the Global Warming farce?
    She flip-flopped.

    The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

    I'll guarantee they hate Americans and Jews more than each other.
