We are f*cked.
-
If you guys vote Republican the rest of the world is fucked.
-
-
She's way out of her depth and it's showing.
-
she completely dodged the question about foreign policy, and went on to talk about energy instead.
I guess when vladimir putin decides to set up a major base in Cuba and Venezuela, she can brag about her gas pipeline plan.
Gibson did a good job grilling her on Russia. Her response "We've got to keep an eye on russia... it's unacceptable!" She says she is prepared for dealing with Russia because "You can actually SEE Russia from Alaska!"
She is woefully unprepared. People will see thru this. We smell a bullshitter. She's bullshitting us here, folks. She looks like a hockey mom trying to BS her way through a job interview.
Oh yes - and she just greenlit Israel to bomb Iran. "We can't second-guess Israel if they feel the need to hit Iran."
REMEMBER ------ Bush himiself keeps stopping Israel from hitting Iran. If they hit them - shit hits the fan and persian gulf oil STOPS FLOWING. This will fcuk up your daily life, no doubt.
Holy fuck - she can't even define the bush doctrine! "In what respect, Charlie?"
She cannot define it.
She's a big bullshitter. I"m not worried that people will elect her. She is unprepared.
-
I"m not worried that people will elect her.
The best campaign advisors in the world chose her for a reason Rob. This could be closer than you think. I'm scared.

Yeah, I was talking to someone yesterday - she said usually she just votes for president, then chooses all the femals names on the ticket because "women need a fair shake". Unreal.
She's at 60% approval rating, but only 42% of America believes she is prepared to be President.
A few more interviews like this one, coupled with the debates facing foreign policy guru Joe Biden, and that 42% preparedness number will plummet.
Cue attacks on Obama because you folks cannot admit mccain chose a gimmick with a vagina instead of a more preprared candidiate.

she brings energy independence
lmao
this interviewer was good.....
he was all over her.....he pushed her cause he doesnt respect her....she doesnt demand respect.....shes too weak
Come on Obama.....bring it home buddy
btw, f*ck Goergia.....SOUTH OSSETIA is Russian.......US media paintning nothing but lies....
-
What makes her prepared for Russian advanced in Georgia?
"I can SEE Russia from Alaska!"
She then derailed it into a talk about energy - which Gibson CLEARLY wasn't falling for.
"But Charlie, energy independence DOES affect thigns with Russia..."
Face it kids... if she gets into office, Russia is going to test us, and Israel is going to bomb Iran. We'll have Russian bombers setting up shop in Cuba, and we'll have Iran stopping 15% of world's oil output. Just about the same time we experience the US gas shortage, we'll have Russian bomber running "drills" off the coast of the eastern seaboard.
Then, once they think we aren't in a capacity to respond fast enough, some skirmush will be created and they'll light our asses up. Watch and see. They moved 2 bombers into venezuela esterday, and they're all visiting Cuba this week. Cold War II is starting, kids. And we're going to hand the keys to the world to a lady who thinks she's ready to deal with Russia because "I can SEE them from Alaska!"

You knew what the Bush doctrine was?Because Newt Gingrich,Rudy Giuliani,as well as Joe Scarborough didnt ,but you a poster on a bodybuilding website did.That was Charlie Gibsons definition.Now,let me ask you this.They edited the interview and made her look foolish.Did you know that?Of course not,your a typical lib.How come Charlie,with his glasses hanging off the end of his nose in typical left wing elitist fashion NEVER asks Obama why he is qualified to be president.Has he done ANYTHING IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE to show he should be president?ANYTHING?The anser is HE HASNT DONE A DAM THING!
-
Yes, if you look at the political board, we've had long and detailed discussions about the Bush Doctrine.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_Doctrine
It's been a pretty big thing for the last 6 years. It's the document which has driven our foreign policy. Billy, this is politics 102 here.

Her legs looked good.

i guess she is scared that the russians will come to alaska ::)

Again,the Bush doctrine can be defined as many things,from spreading democracy across the globe,to striking an enemy that we see as a threat.Gibson could have easily defined his question,but WANTED to make her look foolish.Thats the way the left works.Again,please show me JUST ONCE when a lib reporter EVER asks Obama a "gotcha" question.Ever.You cant,because they are so in the tank for him its disgusting.Christ Chris Mathews would blow him if Obama asked him to and Im sure Olberman would slurp the load out of his mouth.

You don't get it......Charlie Chocolate factory understood the defenses weren't there.......read ----> the interviewer DID NOT respect her.....he wouldn't try this tactic with Obama as the response would be cutting, forceful or intelligent....it was UP TO Palin to rise to the interview....she didn't.....cause she couldn't.....an isolated, bad interview?....I don't think so....more like a reflection of what she's made of.....but McCcain fcked up, not Palin.....he had Olympia Snowe, Elizabeth Dole, etc....yet he picks this college hoping, no-grade, book-burning, promiscous, husband-cheating, prom-queen-lying, dodgy birth giving, dumb-ass.

Sorry dude. You want to change the topic from Palin's weak answers, to a broad discussion on the lib media and how bad obama sucks.
I'm not going to let you do that.

lets just hope McCain lives past his term...

an isolated, bad interview?
Fred Thompson was a rock star for the repubs during the primaries. He was leading in polls right out of the gate, as he looked and acted presidential. Our decade's reagan!
Then, during his initial interviews, he started looking a little slow, a little dumb. He didn't know much about some issues. The floodgates opened. He was peppered with Qs about specific policy and global issues - stuff that leaders should know, but casual news watchers would not - and he gave a lot of wrong answers. He was quickly labeled unprepared - even by FOX news - and he dropped in the polls and lost.
Methinks this will happen here as well. She isn't prepared, it's obvious. Her FIRST interview was a bad one. I'm guessing reporters will be planing lines of questioning to further expose her inability to answer these Qs. Not a good day for mccain team. I keep saying it. The more we see of this woman speaking without a script, the less we'll like her. She's not shrewd leadership material like Mccain, biden, and yes, even obama, are.

Palins answers were edited by ABC.They shortned her answers to make her look scripted an unprepared and as though she was just spouting one line talking points.THATS A FACT!.Gibson was the one who had ZERO understanding of our role in NATO.She was right,HE was wrong.I thought she did fine,nothing great,no blunders.This weekend when Chris Wallace interviews her LIVE without edeting will be a much better indicator.
Now,lets compare that to Joe Biden telling a cripple to stand up this week.
-
HAHAHHAHAH
Yeah Biden is gonna tear her up. He is sooooo smart. lol I go to alot of boards this has to be the most uninformed of them all.
ABC News' Matthew Jaffe reports: Sen. Barack Obama's, D-Ill., vice presidential nominee, Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., Wednesday said that Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., might have been a better pick for the position than him.
At a rally in Nashua, N.H., a man in the audience told Biden how glad he was that Obama picked him over Hillary, "not because she's a woman, but because, look at the things she did in the past."
"Make no mistake about this," Biden responded. "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Let’s get that straight. She’s a truly close personal friend, she is qualified to be president of the United States of America, she’s easily qualified to be vice president of the United States of America, and quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me. But she’s first rate, I mean that sincerely, she’s first rate, so let’s get that straight."
LOL yeah theres a guy to put your faith in. He has no faith in his self.

Do you have proof of this?
Do you have the actual transcript of the entire interview, as recorded and provided by Mccain campaign with evidence?
Please share proof. Otherwise you're making up a conspiracy theory to try to defend a woefully unprepared lady here. Also, Gibson threw a softball interview to mccain when he won the repub nomination. I guess he's only a lib lie machine tool on odd-numbered months?

since you post this on getbig i assume there's a video out there when she's doing a most muscular?

She said "nucular." Twice.
I realized three things tonight. For one, if you are a McCain/Palin/Bush voter, you and I do not have a difference of opinion. We have a difference in brain power. Two, she really is as ignorant as I feared. And, three, she really is kinda hot. Basically, I want to have sex with her on my Barack Obama sheets while my wife reads aloud from the Constitution. (My wife is cool with this if I promise to "first wipe off Palin's tranny makeup." I married well.)
Now, I want to be clear and speak directly to those of you who LOVED that Palin interview. You're an idiot. I mean that. This is not one of those cases where we're going to agree to disagree. This isn't one of those situations where we debate it passionately and then walk away thinking that the other guy is wrong but argued well. I'm not going to think of you as a thoughtful but misguided person with different ideas who still really cares about the country and the world. No, sorry, not this time. This time, if you watched those interview excerpts and weren't scared out of your freakin' mind, then you're mentally ill, mentally disabled, or mentally disturbed. What you are NOT is responsible, informed, curious, thoughtful, mature, educated, empathetic, or remotely serious. I mean it.
But I like to think that anyone can change.
Stop voting for people you want to have a beer with. Stop voting for folksy. Stop voting for people who remind you of your neighbor. Stop voting for the ideologically intransigent, the staggeringly ignorant, and the blazingly incompetent.
Vote for someone smarter than you. Vote for someone who inspires you. Vote for someone who has not only traveled the world but who has also shown a deep understanding and compassion for it. The stakes are real and they're terrifyingly high. This election matters. It matters. It really matters. Let me say that one more time. This. Really. Matters.

How can you say that and vote for JOE"THE DUMBEST MAN IN THE SENATE" BIDEN.This lightweight of a human being has proven time after time after time that he cant shut up,has no self control and will say the first thing that pops into his empty head.Just this week he told a cripple to stand up and then said Hillary would have been a better choice then him.Ever see him when he questioned Judge Roberts?He got obliterated.
Obama cant make it through one sentence without saying "ummm,hmmmm".The guy is darn near incoherent.I will ask you the same thing.How can you watch Joe Biden tell a guy in a wheelchair to "stand up" AND THINK HE COULD ever BE PRESIDENT?
-
Billy, again, you're trying to justify palin's poor performance by saying "yeah, but obama and biden are dumb too!"
Defend your girl.
Give us evidence to back up your silly conspiracy theory that ABC doctored the tape to make her look stupid.
-
Rob-no one truly "loved" the Palin interview. They defend her because that's what their party tells them to do. They are lemmings. And good lord just wait for the VP debates. She will look riduculously scripted. And once a follow-up question is asked that varies from the script just sit back and watch the show. I really think it will be uncomfortable to watch. Same sort of discomfort you get when you watch the character Michael from "The Office."

JOHN MCCAIN BETTER NOT BECOME PRESIDENT >:(
you people better not be so stupid to elect another bush >:( >:( >:(

This is true. I wonder how mccain will hide her now, knowing full well that reporters are going to be very anxious to expose her as being incompetent.
I can't beleive she gave israel the green light to bomb Iran "if they see a need". WTF was she thinking?
-
LOLOL@240 and his Republican cats paws. Rob, you are blessed with far more patience than I will ever have. :)

That may be one of the most frightening things she said. Shit, even Bush won't green light that disaster.
-

Yep. ISR planes have ran drills, but since Iran says any ISR attack will lead to war with U SA and COMPLETE oil shutdown (as well as them mining the straits where 50% of world's oil passes thru)... we keep stopping them.
So palin will let israel bomb them.
They'll turn off oil faucet, meaning 15% of oil to world STOPS. Then, they'll release their mines in the water, so saudi oil stops flowing thru there. Splendid.
Palin will deliver $15 per gallon gasoline. Oh, then she'll rescue you by saying she need $500 bil in ermergency funds to fast-track the alaskan pipeline. Which, since her hubby was a member of the alaskan separist party for a decade, does put ALASKA first.
Maybe this was her plan all along? War with iran means alaska gets nearly a trillion dollars to fund inefficient oil and nat'l gas function there. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

There is no need for me to prove it,because the ENTIRE interview has been released.Not the edited one.It was shown late last night,of course after prime time.I wonder why?She was fine.By the way,THERE ARE MANY conservatives who want Isreal to bomb Iran.
Here is the bottom line.I wasnt going to vote in this election for president.I dont like McCain,never have[I voted for Ron Paul in the primary].However,once Obama named Joe Biden as his choice for VP there was nothing on earth that would stop me from voting against that man.He is a lying scum bag.An enemy of athletics.
As far as Palin,I thought she was fine.Nothing great,nothing bad.She crushed Gibson on the NATO question as he didnt even understand that we are bound to defend any NATO nation thats attacked.She was ok.Now,would she have been my choice?No,like I said I voted for Ron Paul.I want less government intervention in our lives.Joe Biden is the one guy in the senate who has done everything in his power to tell us how to live our lives with his stupid drug laws.
So,in the end,what am I to do?Vote for a guy that I think hates white people and a running mate that hates athletics?No,sorry.

Wow, you really should take a look in the mirror. No one has looked worse then Obama when there is no script. How many videos would you like me to post to make my point?
And I suppose that libs never ever tow the party line.
All of you for Obama must be for--- tax rates higher then ever seen in recorded history, small bIZ owners forced to close, the largest govt in history, smaller milt, more welfare programs for people who deserve nothing, and jus wait what is it called again hmmmmmm OH YEAH AND CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN!!!!
I'm not a rep. I'm a independent always have been. But I will not vote for a man who is friends with terrorist(ayers). Or is an socialist and a racist.

Well, let's see how wrong you are--Repubs in the last 8 years have grown government to its largest EVER, most pork barrel bullshit EVER (talk about welfare for people who don't deserve it), run the country into biggest debt EVER, economy that's in the shitter causing record bankruptcies and small biz failures.
Want to try again genius?

I would like to insert my penis in her.

240, are we going to lose this fight?
Is the collective stupidity of the U.S just too big to overcome
I look around the poll booths.....all I see is hill-billy, pram pushing, grocery shopping, toyota tarago driving, rossane bar/tim the toolman look-a-like nuclear families ....the exact people who see a halo around Palins head
fukc, we're doomed

It's amazing how much time people waste arguing about lying-thieving scumbags. Politicians are like used car salesman only far more arrogant and self absorbed. They are a bunch of grandstanding spoon-fed zombies who preach a bunch of nonsense and lies to flocks of dipshits who follow them around baaing optomistically.
Newsflash....This is America, a black dude isn't going to be elected President this year or twenty years from now for that matter.
Hope this helps!

last sunday, Bush committed $4.1 TRILLION to bailing out two banks.
This sunday, he'll do it again with Lehman brothers bank.
Next Sunday, Ford wants to get paid.
it is done on sundays so news doesn't catch it. Remember last monday/tuesday? All we heard about was the lipstick comment. not the fact that our nato'l debt had gorwn 50% in ONE DAY due to the sunday bailouts.
Bush is giving away our grandkids' money to his corporate buddies. And Mccain supports bush economic policy, which is to... drum roll please... give away our grandkids' money to his corporate buddies.
-
She did about as well as Obama did on the O’Reilly Factor. Both had a few hiccups. But, overall, Palin had a good interview, as did Obama.
-
I don't think Palin is ready to be president, but I still think she's better than Obama.
Someone has to die before Palin will be president. But if Obama is elected, Obama will serve as president immediately.

NT,
it is corporate socialism. But doesn't care about poor people who need money. But he does care about rich people. not only that, but the boards of fanny and freddie all kept the $6 and $7 million bonuses. That hurts worse. We're paying for them to keep their bonuses.

I was just going to mention those bonuses and parachutes. So if you fuck up your job performance so bad that it requires governmental intervention you get a bonus so large that most people could live on it for the rest of their lives without working? Outrageous. You know, if these idiots worked at McDonald's and had the same level of job performance you know what would have happened to them? Yes, they would be fired.

Would war with Russia be acceptable?
I believe she is the first politician to say it would be.

How is it whining?I dont give a flying fuck who wins to be honest.I would never ever vote for a guy who hates my race like Obama or bans steroid use like Biden,but in the end,I will do fine,my family will do fine,no matter who wins.The reason? I work hard.I dont need a fucking community organiser to help me,I help myself.I dont need a goof like Biden to tell me what to do,because in the end,I do what I want.Find the link yourself,EVERY single commentator talked about it this morning,including Chris Wallace.In the end who cares.
-
Gibson: Would we have to go into war with Russia?
Palin: Perhaps so.
WTF ??? If Russia fights with its NATO neighbor, Palin says we'l go to war with Russia. unreal. This woman is talking about starting WWIII over some russian domestic drama which has been present for hundreds of years.
-
Billy has no evidence to back up his claim that the wording was changed or edits made.
he used this imaginary possibility as the only possible explanation for why Palin gave such terrible answers.
Dude, she got exposed as being unprepared. Don't let your hate for Obama cloud the fact this woman just gave a green light for ISR to hit Iran, and promised to invade RUSSIA if they fight with their neighbor ukraine.
-
The first ever woman on the ticket and she turns out to be a dunce.
Feminists are a clever bunch generally. They must be tearing out their pubes by the handful.
Billy - She's hopeless. Game over. Save your energy for another thread.

No he doesn't. All he has is whining and excuses.
Complete pvssy@ass claims about editing to make that twat look dumber than she already is.
::)
-
She refused to answer (or couldn't?) 3/4 of his questions. She just kept repeating, WORD FOR WORD, her practiced answers to his questions. She side-stepped almost everything he asked. And yes, she definitely presumes to know what God's plan is (she makes it clear that it's to attack iraq, etc) despite her quote of Lincoln to the contrary.
But "240" you need to remember, in this country, "straight teeth in your mouth are more important than the words that come out of it." Palin's smile, her good looks and straight teeth will resonate with people MUCH more than the answers she gave or did not give.

Billy, again, you're trying to justify palin's poor performance by saying "yeah, but obama and biden are dumb too!"
Defend your girl.
Give us evidence to back up your silly conspiracy theory that ABC doctored the tape to make her look stupid.
What I saw were questions that Joe Biden or Barack Obama are never going to be asked. Did I love the interview? No but she hold her own. Gibson was CLEARLY asking condesending questions and in some cases talking to her as if he was talking to a little girl. Paraphrasing "Governor, do you realize you will have to be dealing with other countries and heads of state" WTF kind of a question is that?
What I saw was an attemt to try and smear her more, IMO, we (the republicans) just scored another victory simply because people just going to get fed up even more with trying to make her look bad. Typical leftist tactics. But she did do a 100x better job than Obama when he was interviewed by O'Reilly last week........total ownage right there.
-
She refused to answer (or couldn't?) 3/4 of his questions. She just kept repeating, WORD FOR WORD, her practiced answers to his questions. She side-stepped almost everything he asked. And yes, she definitely presumes to know what God's plan is (she makes it clear that it's to attack iraq, etc) despite her quote of Lincoln to the contrary. But "240" you need to remember, in this country, "straight teeth in your mouth are more important than the words that come out of it." Palin's smile, he good looks and straight teeth will resonate with people MUCH more than the answers she gave or did not give.
Never heard that quote before, but damn that is soooo true.

The woman is out of her depth, out of her league, is clearly oblivious to whats going on around her on a global scale and as far as im concerned absolutely riddled with daftness.
I fear the worst if someone like that gets any sort of power.

No he doesn't. All he has is whining and excuses.
Complete pvssy@ass claims about editing to make that twat look dumber than she already is.
::)
Heres a gurantee you fuckhead.By the end of the day this will be proven right and you wil look the dickhead you are.Neither of you watched the news today obviously.By the way,the internet sure is great.A pussy ass guy can call someone a pussy hiding behind a screen name.Because in person you would piss in your pants if you ever tried to call me a pussy,you limp wristed fag.

He intimidated her.
She would fold under pressure.
-

Worse than Obama?
-
She is not ready to lead.
However, some of her quotes from the interview are cute.
I like this one.
GIBSON: What insight into Russian actions, particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of the state give you?
PALIN: They're our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.
We should start a Sarah Palin quote thread.
-
Worse than Obama?
Yes, Joe. Worse than Obama. You hate him because he's going to fvck you out of thousands of tax dollars, that is no secret.
She just gave Israel a green light to bomb iran and shut down half of US oil supplies at a time when we're bailing out banks. Bad isn't the word, for what it'll do to the economy.
She isn't prepared. You hate obama, and that's fine. But don't try to turn this into an OReilly/Obama thread.
Palin was horirble in this interview. Gibson was a lot less tough than Putin, who will set up base in Cuba and then ask her what her next move is.

Pussy. There I did it again. In person if I pissed my pants, it would be no doubt from laughing at you and your juvenile behavior and mental midget status.
I bet by the end of the day, you will still be whining and dodging the question of this "evidence". What news did you watch? Give me the news. ABC? NBC? CNN? FOX? LALALANDTV? Which is it? Since you can't find the evidence, I will gladly go look on the news site for any mention of it. Surely the a news station reported this, it will be on their website.
Which is it?
Or will we just hear more whining and excuses?

lmao..being the warped individual I can be from too many headshots.....I think she did answer this question fine.....they are "IN-SIGHT" from that "land" she speaks of from that "island" I guess you could actually say...it's a stretch..but....oh well I tried.
poor lady :'(

Why do I have the feeling Billy wouldn't give you the chance to laugh.
-
On other forums people already starting to defend her.
They are saying Gibson was condescending and too hard on her.
This is exactly what the Republican Party wanted.
They want the country to feel sorry for her.

well my sympathy for her is more on the lines of the guy who gets talked up by his pals, we put him in the ring and the poor bastard has to go to ER after his first sparring session.

People shouldn't vote for who they feel sorry for.
They should vote for the person most likely to stare down Russia, who just moved bombers into Venezuela and will be flying to Cuba this week to highlight their ability to do what they please.
yes, on 911, Hugo chavez kicked out our ambassador and will buzz a bomber by, near south florida this week.
And we want to put in this woman, who thinks since she can SEE Russia, she's prepared to face down russia.
pathetic. This joke just gets sicker and sicker. I think we're going to look back at this election as an insane joke. What were were thinking?

You keep harping on Palin.Ok,lets agree,she sucks.Are you satisfied.Now,lets talk about the top of the ticket.THATS who we are voting for.Lets see,who would I trust to stare down Putin,Obama or McCain.A man that was a soldier,who put his life on the line,who stayed to endure torture when he could have gone home so he could stay with his men,a man that has sttod up to his party time after time at the expense of his own career?Or a guy that was a community organiser,which is little more then a rabble rouser.A man that sat in a church for twenty years and listed to hate whitey rhetoric.A man that has zero accomplishments in his life?
The democrats love to focus on Palin,but we are voting for president.In that regards Obama is simply outclassed.His talent?Reading a teleprompter.

mccain is 72 and has had cancer 4 times. he's flirted with only running once. Palin will be the nominee in 2012 if she doesn't inherit office, God forbid.
Looking at her viability as a top ticket is more than reasonable.
-
I'd like to shove my nine millimeter in her twat and blow the bitch to pieces. :)
-
She said "nucular." Twice.
I realized three things tonight. For one, if you are a McCain/Palin/Bush voter, you and I do not have a difference of opinion. We have a difference in brain power. Two, she really is as ignorant as I feared. And, three, she really is kinda hot. Basically, I want to have sex with her on my Barack Obama sheets while my wife reads aloud from the Constitution. (My wife is cool with this if I promise to "first wipe off Palin's tranny makeup." I married well.)
Now, I want to be clear and speak directly to those of you who LOVED that Palin interview. You're an idiot. I mean that. This is not one of those cases where we're going to agree to disagree. This isn't one of those situations where we debate it passionately and then walk away thinking that the other guy is wrong but argued well. I'm not going to think of you as a thoughtful but misguided person with different ideas who still really cares about the country and the world. No, sorry, not this time. This time, if you watched those interview excerpts and weren't scared out of your freakin' mind, then you're mentally ill, mentally disabled, or mentally disturbed. What you are NOT is responsible, informed, curious, thoughtful, mature, educated, empathetic, or remotely serious. I mean it.
But I like to think that anyone can change.
Stop voting for people you want to have a beer with. Stop voting for folksy. Stop voting for people who remind you of your neighbor. Stop voting for the ideologically intransigent, the staggeringly ignorant, and the blazingly incompetent.
Vote for someone smarter than you. Vote for someone who inspires you. Vote for someone who has not only traveled the world but who has also shown a deep understanding and compassion for it. The stakes are real and they're terrifyingly high. This election matters. It matters. It really matters. Let me say that one more time. This. Really. Matters.
interesting commentary from another forum
Bravo. I was momentarily super impressed thinking you wrote that too, Rob. Nonetheless, it's spot on.

I'm voting Barack Obama now, 100%. I was going to vote Nader, but this lady and McCain are just too dangerous. I won't ever fight in any of their wars, ever. People like them aren't worth "defending."

it would be fun to see her dropped somewhere in Iraq to see the insurgents give her a sour taste of definite death.

240 Get you facts straight. The gov't is not bailing out Lehman. They're overseeing the sale to one of three banks... probably B of A.

i'm far too scatterbrained to write that. but it sums up the seriousness of this election.
We need a leader who is shrewd, smart, and able to diffuse threats in the world. Obama will meet with world leaders, and will scale back what has been, frankly, aggressive US expansion into the middle east in the last 8 years. Yes, we invaded two nations and set up shop. That pisses off the rest of the world. We'd be hella pissed if Russia invaded two countries in South America and set up a hundred military bases, right?
Obama will stop that aggressive expansion, and talk with other world leaders. McCain will not.
it's that simple. Who do you prefer? The guy who will keep doing the global expansion and pissing off the world (Mccain), or the guy who says we need to stop invading countries, and try to fix our own (Obama)?

They're first attempting to sell stock and ownership to groups including CHINA.
http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/f3586ede-80ca-11dd-82dd-000077b07658.html
When this fails, they'll demand a federal bailout. We did it with the top 3 - Bears, Fanny, Freddy.
Leahman is the 4th largest, I believe? They're doing the publicity "we tried, we really did!"

Already sent/sending two bombers into Venezuela for 'training exercises.' He's already testing the waters. That's Cold War distance. :o

Nice try..........but Lehman has assets all the others don't, namely guy Bremen (SP.) The Gov't wants no part of this and on the Fixed Income side, they're trading accordingly. Don't go where you don't belong.

If you care about america being safe then why in the f**k would you even consider Obama? Palin might not have the foreign policy experiance but McCain probably has more than anyone on Capitol Hill, she could easily learn....and quickly. I feel safe having someone like McCain to make sure he keeps up safe. Obama want to cut out military budget down to almost nothing. How's that keeping America safe?

A great deal of that military budget is allocated for military EXPANSION.
You see, that $3 billion per week we spend in iraq - while iraq has a $80 bil surplus they won't touch- that is military spending that IS NOT NECESSARY.
We have 800 bases worldwide, dude. Obama is saying he'll make iraq pay for their own war. He'll ask germany and UK and other nations to donate money to win war in afghanistan.
It's financial responsibility, and we've been missing it for the last 8 years joe.
-
To be fair, she has her hands full with her family, with a retarded baby, a very young daughter, son going to Iraq and a pregnant daughter. Add to that she is the governor of Alaska.
McCain made a silly choice. Governor Pawlenty of Minnesota was the right choice. McCain was very close to Obama in the polls already.
By picking Palin, McCain gives up the issue of the need for experience to run the government. I think it was a very bad move.
However, I still prefer McCain/Palin to Obama/anyone.
If Obama is elected, that's it. I'd prefer to risk McCain dying in office.

My little friend......the gov't didn't bail out Bear. They oversaw their being bought by JP Morgan. After this they made the Fed window open to other firms like them available for liquidity. They bailed Fannie and Freddie as this would cause more of a public calamity to let them drop. As a result motgage rates dropped after this was announced. Why? Because there will now be more money available for borrowing....good for housing. I work in the Fixed Income area of one of the largest firms on the street, done so for 12 years. Starts with an M and not Merrill.

come on rob, billy. you guys know that she will never run this country if she was indeed vp and mcain died in office. she will look the role and play the role but a few men will control her in whatever she does. she will do what the guys behind the scene will want. its not gonna matter if she is vp.

If the daft bitch cant handle some hardline, tough questions, then what makes you think she could look after your Country.
If you guys give her the opportunity to further show how inept when shes in power then you all need shooting with hot sloppy shit.
Its even worse for us in the UK because we will run around you like the little lapdog this country has become to the USA.

Keep watching. It's coming out that answers that Charlie Gibson was trying to correct her on was wrong and she was right. Even CNN's Lou Dobbs said she was correct in her answers and was sort of dogging Gibson.
Lets face it.........the left fucked up again.

so you're saying that she was right when: 1. she said we'd go to war with Russia and 2. that Israel can bomb Iran if it wants? Keep in mind these two ideas severely diverge from Bush's view and McCains.

She did about as well as Obama did on the O’Reilly Factor. Both had a few hiccups. But, overall, Palin had a good interview, as did Obama.
Obama held his own with O'reilly, he actually corrected Bill several times...
-
I don't think Palin is ready to be president, but I still think she's better than Obama.
Someone has to die before Palin will be president. But if Obama is elected, Obama will serve as president immediately.
Why would Obama be bad? Please give me some evidence, and not shit you heard on Fixed News network. REAL FACTS. Sounds to me like hes the ONLY one of the candidates that really has common sense. His REAL voting record proves that. Not what FIXED news network claims

Not the version I saw. It's amazing how people see what they want to see. Gov. Palin got high marks on her interview. So, no need to make shit up. She will be the next VP.
-
This is crazy. Politics is a dirty and nasty business, always has been.
If you think that Campbell Brown and Charles Gibson are tough....
cheney just spent the last few weeks globe trotting to speak with heads of state...
Replace Cheney with Palin. She may be a quick learner,but the world doesn't stop while she gets cliff notes on international policies. Put out one fire, two more pop up.

'Present.' And the word, though rarely used, is 'infantacized' - the murder of children. :-\
-
Obama held his own with O'reilly, he actually corrected Bill several times...
yeah, i thought the that interview went ok for obama too. the one thing i have to agree with bill on is how obama was wrong on the surge. of course obama can't say he was wrong about such a foreign policy decision.
the palin interview was hard to watch. kind of reminded me of that south carolina beauty contestant fumbling her answer. of course the full interview is on tonight, so let's see what else she has to say.
about the bush doctrine. look, i never knew that it had an official title, so i clearly would have been stumped with the question. but i do think that ANY vp candidate should know what it is. her foreign policy credentials are summed up as "russia is our neighbor." i cant believe people think she is a heartbeat away from being president.
palin repeating the same lines was to be expected. i think after this interview, they are going to limit the media access to her, and hope they can ride out the next 50-ish days on their current wave. their idea is to make this a campaign of attack ads, which the media loves, thus keeping the focus off palin and the economy. with hurricane ike, that will buy the mccain camp more time to shield palin, and prepare her for her next interview with someone on fox.
-
'Present.' And the word, though rarely used, is 'infantacized' - the murder of children. :-\
infanticide?

hmmmmm hockey mom did not know the bush doctrine, is she running for the pta or vice presidency ???
maybe it was "gods will" for her not to know it at that moment?
-
haha i hope the american media destroys her.
-
Liberal attacks on her have been backfiring since day one.
These types never learn. They are handing this election to McCain.
She will eat up Biden in their debate. The media will throw softballs to Obama during his two debates with McCain. It will only push more people to McCain.
The public already knows what's going on. A recent Rasmussen poll said that Americans believe media is trying to get Obama elected.

How is it whining?I dont give a flying fuck who wins to be honest.I would never ever vote for a guy who hates my race
lol @ "my race"....what is this, Germany 1939 or something....fuck RACES....actually look around dick cheese, that cause that white guy next to you, the one from your "race", the one you connect with, well he's probably thinking how he's going to molest your little girl while you do the shopping.....hows that for your RACE.....

You knew what the Bush doctrine was?Because Newt Gingrich,Rudy Giuliani,as well as Joe Scarborough didnt ,but you a poster on a bodybuilding website did.That was Charlie Gibsons definition.Now,let me ask you this.They edited the interview and made her look foolish.Did you know that?Of course not,your a typical lib.How come Charlie,with his glasses hanging off the end of his nose in typical left wing elitist fashion NEVER asks Obama why he is qualified to be president.Has he done ANYTHING IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE to show he should be president?ANYTHING?The anser is HE HASNT DONE A DAM THING!
I agree!
Obama has less experience then her!
This interview was a joke! sounded more like a debate to me.
Let's put Obama on Hanity and see how he does.
Shawn would eat him alive!

as opposed to building a missile defence system in Poland......THICK!.....that is your new name

Gentlemen the USA will not have a black president. Especially not one who's name is similar to Osama Bin Laden. Nor will it go to a man who is a self confessed prisioner of the yellow Vietnamese who wasn't even brave enough to fight to the death to evade capture.
Everything that is happening now is smoking mirrors and diversions while the world rulers work out how to install the real chosen one into the Whitehouse.
The Masons have already decided who will govern the USA and my guess is it aint going to be either candidate. Just watch how it rolls out over the coming weeks.
-
she completely dodged the question about foreign policy, and went on to talk about energy instead.
I guess when vladimir putin decides to set up a major base in Cuba and Venezuela, she can brag about her gas pipeline plan.
Gibson did a good job grilling her on Russia. Her response "We've got to keep an eye on russia... it's unacceptable!" She says she is prepared for dealing with Russia because "You can actually SEE Russia from Alaska!"
She is woefully unprepared. People will see thru this. We smell a bullshitter. She's bullshitting us here, folks. She looks like a hockey mom trying to BS her way through a job interview.
Oh yes - and she just greenlit Israel to bomb Iran. "We can't second-guess Israel if they feel the need to hit Iran."
REMEMBER ------ Bush himiself keeps stopping Israel from hitting Iran. If they hit them - shit hits the fan and persian gulf oil STOPS FLOWING. This will fcuk up your daily life, no doubt.
Holy fuck - she can't even define the bush doctrine! "In what respect, Charlie?"
She cannot define it.
She's a big bullshitter. I"m not worried that people will elect her. She is unprepared.
So what are we to vote for a Muslim! The republican ticket is just the better ticket with way more experience. I mean the VP for th republicans has more experience then the guy the democrats put up. And we are not voting for her we are voting for John M. If GWB can run the country she sure the hell can. People got to stop going into these things with a democrat vs republican mind set and vote more for who is better for the country at this given time. I can't stand GW, but that does not mean that i am not going to vote for John M.

Would love to know more about what you are mean by this. I to believe that US and the world are run by very powerful people working together and that the leaders we see are just puppets! Just like I believe that 911 was an inside job and that the US was behind it all to get us in this war. Hitler did it to invade Poland, Johnson did it to get in to Vietnam, 7-7 in London there is strong proof that that Tony Blair was behind that. I have studied 911 in depth and there is no way those planes brought down those buildings. I have a ton on footage on dvd and interviews with top people in different industries that back up that there is no way that it happen that way. Those buildings were taken down. If anyone would like a copy PM me your address and I'll send you one.

The Governor did a great job at debating Gibson...even though it was supposed to be an INTERVIEW. At least we all know who Charles Gibson is voting for. It's almost like the Obama campaign was standing in the background coaching him....

Gentlemen I am a fairly senior Mason. I can trace my ancestors back to membership of the first Grand Lodge of Scotland in 1736. Yet even I do not have access to the inner sanctum. I am going shopping in Glasgow now but I'll let you know some secrets when I get back.
-
So has proof of that edited interview turned up yet?
The length of delusion that silly people go to on here to justify a dumbtwat like Palin is hilarious.

Geeze,even the left wing MSNBC talked about how THE FULL interview was shown later.They cut her answers down to make it fit into the time frame.Every single newscast talked about it last night.Some said it made no differance,others said that it made her look worse then she actualy was.
-
Just keep watching and listening. Should be all exposed by this evening.
Well? Where is the exposed shit?
Ah, didn't think so.

So what are we to vote for a Muslim!
Do you have evidence that he's a muslim?
The only group that's saying that is the same group that said mcCain had an illigitimate black baby in 2000.
No credible group has said he's a muslim. He has a valid US birth certificate.
If you have evidence he's a muslim, please share it.

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for evidence. These people making these claims are just talking shit because they can't come up with anything else.

Have you heard his name?
Pretty muslim to me.
So you talk about McCain's baby did you say the same things about Clinton when he was getting hummers while directing our troops?
And then lied under oath about it!
Give me a cheating American anyday over a guys who name is and heritage is Muslim!
-

The reason no one can come up with anything else is because he has not done anything else - he is a nobody!

I was the biggest anti-Clinton guy in the world, and I voted for Bush twice.
Mccain never had an illigetimate child. It was a republican campaign manager than made up that lie, and put it in phone calls in S. carolina to voters.
Mccain hired him to do the dirty work on this campaign.
I can't determine a guy worships a certain way because of his name. If you have evidence, I'll start knocking on doors for john mccain tomorrow. But for the last 20 months, hilary and mccain have tried to find evidence he's a muslim, and they have not been able to. If you have some insight they do not, please share.
Otherwise, it's simple a theory of yours.

Ok call it a theory of mine, but the dude has a muslim name that concerns me!
-
there are a lot of things about obama that concern me. but he took his dad's name and was raised christian in the USA. I have an italian last name, but there isn't an ounce of italian in me. Mistaken all the time for it.
-
lets just hope McCain lives past his term...
No, ...let's hope & pray, and VOTE to make sure Mccain doesn't get into office in the first place!
-
The first ever woman on the ticket and she turns out to be a dunce.
Feminists are a clever bunch generally. They must be tearing out their pubes by the handful.
Billy - She's hopeless. Game over. Save your energy for another thread.
pretty much.
She said she intended to pierce America's heart with those 18 million shards from the glass ceiling.
Through the heart indeed!
Then there was that utterly stupid rhetoric she kept repeating... "we can't blink"
Of course she can't blink. In order to blink, ...one must first have their eyes OPEN! She clearly doesn't. :'(

Ya, it was funny watching a woman put on the machismo. I thought at any moment she'd say, "Ya know, I'm a tough little cookie, Charlie!"
She'll do more harm than good for women in politics.
BTW, my absolute fav moment, which no one has yet mentioned, is at 8:30 when she gives the little nod & wink. It's so bad. Someone should make a .gif of that.
-
come on rob, billy. you guys know that she will never run this country if she was indeed vp and mcain died in office. she will look the role and play the role but a few men will control her in whatever she does. she will do what the guys behind the scene will want. its not gonna matter if she is vp.
And those guys would be who?... You want to vote for a bunch of shadows you know even less about than Palin?
Would that be Saudi sheiks, Myanmar thugs, Nigerian dictators, Iraqi warmongers and Somali warlords?
...cause all of them were working to put McCain in office, ...at times for free. What'll they want as payback?
-
Gibson: Would we have to go into war with Russia?
Palin: Perhaps so.
WTF ??? If Russia fights with its NATO neighbor, Palin says we'l go to war with Russia. unreal. This woman is talking about starting WWIII over some russian domestic drama which has been present for hundreds of years.
Even worse, America hasn't even fully prosecuted the other two wars it's in, ...and she's talking about a third war,
...one in which Georgia is clearly in the wrong.
A 12 yr old American eye-witness to the truth
It's bad enough the most powerful military on the planet is bogged down and stretched so thin it's bursting at the seams, ...but now this little pop tart, and I mean that in all sincerity, is talking about bogging down the US army even further by backing some shitty little country that wants to pick a war with countries bigger than it.
It reminds me of that scene in "How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days" when Kate Hudson's character started mouthing off to the big guy in the theatre. It was Mcconaughey's character that had to fight about it, ...not her.
If anything, the only good that will come out of that, is that NATO member countries will probably fight hard to keep Georgia out of NATO. The USA may have idiots in charge with a passion for war, but most countries on this planet see war as a last resort, not the go-to solution for everything, ...and I doubt they would want to have to commit their military and the lives of their troops in defense of a bellicose nation being an aggressor against a larger more powerful military force.
It's like being an already critically wounded cocker spaniel, yet being forced into battle with a well rested and hungry pitbull, all because your stupid yappy little teacup chihuahua can't keep it's trap shut.
-
If you care about america being safe then why in the f**k would you even consider Obama? Palin might not have the foreign policy experiance but McCain probably has more than anyone on Capitol Hill, she could easily learn....and quickly. I feel safe having someone like McCain to make sure he keeps up safe. Obama want to cut out military budget down to almost nothing. How's that keeping America safe?
We care because if McCain dies, we would like a President who is not as you say "could easily learn and quickly". Her Moose hunting skills aren't going to help in the middle east if she has never traveled out of the country.
Upside - we will have a Vice President who is a much better shot than Dick Cheney. Or did he shoot his friend only because he was drinking. That's funny!
Don't say, "Who cares who is the VP?" Of course, you have to care. Where were you on September 11?
The reason McCain put Palin out on her own.... he couldn't handle that "Finger Nails on a Chalkboard" voice one more day.

But, that’s EXACTLY what you’ll have (A "could easily learn and quickly" president) if Obama wins, because he’s on top of the Dems' ticket. If experience were the be-all-to-end-all, Biden would be #1, or Clinton would be there.
-
No, Senator Obama HAS traveled out of the country.
He was a "rock star" when he went to Germany.
Was Mexico even on the list of places Palin traveled? She said, "Canada... and what other countries?"
Palin in Mexico - now that would be fun to watch. Do you think she would take off the glasses when she was drinking margaritas by the seashore?
Kennedy and Bill Clinton - how older were they compared to Senator Obama? Who was the youngest of the three?
Biden was a great choice, but Biden doesn't have the charisma to inspire hope like Obama. If you take the time to listen to Biden, he is brilliant and his ideas
I have the highest level of respect for John McCain; however they waited until he got too old.
He should have come to the Democratic party when his heart was leading him there.
This is not a game... Palin would be a cute cheerleader, but you don't have time to "get briefed" when you are President and two planes hit the world trade center.
Palin's husband is a babe. He takes such good care of that baby.
-
FOREIGN nations visited:
In August 2005, Obama traveled to Russia, Ukraine, and Azerbaijan.The trip focused on strategies to control the world's supply of conventional weapons, biological weapons, and weapons of mass destruction as a first defense against potential terrorist attacks Following meetings with U.S. military in Kuwait and Iraq in January 2006, Obama visited Jordan, Israel, and the Palestinian territories. He left for his third official trip in August 2006, traveling to South Africa, Kenya, Djibouti, Ethiopia and Chad. In a nationally televised speech at the University of Nairobi, he spoke forcefully on the influence of ethnic rivalries and corruption in Kenya]
So let's see - discounting his campaign trips and meeting with World leaders of UK, Germany, Israel, Iraq, Afghanistan - he has been on official business talking war stuff with the Senate Foreign Relations committe to:
Israel
Kuwait
Iraq
Russia
Ukraine
South Africa
Kenya
Djibouti
Ethiopia
Chad
Jordan
Palestinian territories
Kuwait
Azerbaijan
And Palin once left the USA and visted 1 country.
-
Nice job.
Do you ever think of giving some time as an organizer for Obama?
Send them an application.
This election is going close again and we need all of the help we can get. Think about it.
-
McCain / Pailin for 2008!
Everyone blames the Republicans, but obviously, our troubles began in the Democrats controlled both the Senate and House. Lets get back to normal already!
-
I would not say that Biden is brilliant. He looses his temper a lot and he has been on the wrong side of quite a few issues. I will say that he has good experience and is polished....maybe too polished.
Remember, he was the one that wasted congresse's time and our $ on the steroids in baseball scandel...nice priorities. He was also the first to be vocal about giving $1 billion dollars in aid to Georgia, which is $ we are borrowing from China to give to other countries.
I voted for Ron Paul so I am unhappy about both of the choices. Obama is proponent of bigger gov, more regulation, more programs, more taxes & big spending. McCain is probably a bit too old to be president. Neither are exceptionally strong on economics...which is what we need right now...and someone who will slash spending!
-

The dollar over the last 8 years. The dems took over at the Red arrow.
-
The fact is that the gov has failed to address economic, immigration and energy issues. It is the joint fault of the congress and the president's administration.
The democratic congress has made things worse in their two year majority.

How did George Bush blow through the biggest surplus in the history of the United States Clinton and Gore handed to him?
They were sleeping with oil, handed the biggest surplus... and the idiots have left us in a recession.
It feels like the .com bomb when you see the Dow at 300 when you wake up and then 500 at the end of the day. The .com bomb was due somewhat to a correction because there was so much venture capital floating around.
This election cannot come soon enough - McCain or Obama it has to be better. The world cannot wait to see who the next President can be and they cannot wait either. Only Bush could be dumb enough to tick off France.
-
Bush didn't tax during the good times. It spit in the eye of conventional wisdom. you HAVE to tax in the good times, so you don't have to tax during a recession.
Bush didn't. I got my $1000 check in (2002?) and those making $1 mill probably got 100k back lol... everyone was really happy. but that surplus then disappeared. We were borrowing 3 bil per week to spend in iraq, and not paying the bills - just borrowing more $ from china to fund it.
Very irresponsible tax policy - and our next leader will have to suffer for it.

You voted for Ron Paul.
You were disappointed he didn't win?
You weren't surprised right. The independent vote is growing. It would be great if one day there were three parties.
They asked Nader if he feels he is the reason Gore was not President. He said he and Gore had many conversations and he blames Florida, the Supreme court.
That is what Gore said to his face, but Nader got 9% of the vote. So deep down you know Gore to his face is nice but he wants to strangle him.
About the steroid baseball scandal - I hate it as much as you do...
Everything about baseball is good. I mean the cubbies are doing so well so I am happy... but when my 11 year old son and I talk baseball I really want to be talking about Manny Ramirez's crazy average and my kid knows every Angels player and their average. Not talking about Barry Bonds going to jail.
-
No, ...let's hope & pray, and VOTE to make sure Mccain doesn't get into office in the first place!

Yep, it's all Florida's fault. Shame on them for following its own law. The Dems kept filing lawsuits and kept trying to change the rules on what counts as an official ballot (with ALL of the recounting done in heavily Democratic counties, of course).
After 5 weeks (and despite MULTIPLE changes on the definition of an official ballot, i.e. the "chad"), George Bush was STILL ahead of Al Gore, as he initially was at the end of election night; he never lost his lead.
The only thing that the Supreme Court did was declare enough is enough. To use an NFL instant replay term, "The ruling on the field (election night) STANDS!!" Bush won Florida and all of its 25 EC votes, putting his total to 272....GAME OVER!!!!
-
Yeah the NFL thing it "STANDS" ... what is going on with the Denver and San Diego game. I watched that whole game and I couldn't believe it!
So, then the UMP is on the news the next day and says he made a bad call. But we have instant replay.
The Gore, Florida, thing... any chance that could happen again. Not in Florida but you bet somewhere else.
My family is from Chicago... trust me jerrymandering (spelling), fixing elections... it happens in this country too.
Obama is a wizz kid at it - when he was in Chi-town he played the game and learned it well... not cheating but just playing hard ball. We are in for one fun ride!
Honestly, don't waste your breath arguing with me. I truly have no idea what I am talking about.
Just vote for Obama okay - he does. www.voteforchange.com

Chicago is the best or worst at it, depending on how u look at it.

Ha Ha.
I'm not different Sarah Palin has been to more countries than me.
-
No I came originally to find a work around Bicep tendonitis......
-
One of the reasons is the war. Major amounts of $ spent in Iraq which is bankrupting us. The other is too much spending across the board. Bush is not an economic conservative.
-
It went away after I stopped doing millions of pull-ups and straight bar curls.....that was 2 years ago anyway.
Its been fun, a few douchbags...but overall its fun.
