Pretty lame AJ. Some of the Palin stuff was funny, but that's just propaganda.

Propaganda at its worst is the better description!

there are few valid excuses to make 100k and be "struggling"...unless you brought it on yourself.

seriously. I see this *daily* with clients...


No there isn't any reason to be struggling with that salary. Hopefully these people realize their extravagant lifestyles are best lived in a toned manner during these times. If there are more stories of 100k salaries struggling I'd be scared to know how bad it is for people not making as much.

Times like these I'm happy I live overseas where the costs of living are a lot cheaper.

Fucking hilarious. I'm *almost* embarrassed for her.

I really wish our federal debate weren't on at the same time as the VP debate! In another debate, Joe Biden told one of his opponents "the thing I like the most about you...is your wife." LOL It's going to be interesting to watch a reputed hot-head try and take down his female opponent without pissing off female voters.

I proper lol'ed. I can't even tell if she did it on purpose or not, but either way it was comedy gold.

hahaha...

Anderson has been having a continuous field day with her. He must sometimes feel like he's hosting a comedy show, lol.

It is eerie how well Tina Fey plays Palin on SNL.


Posted by smuncky on Oct-02-2008 01:26:

seeing the skit from SNL from last saturday and then comparing it to the real interview was hilarious.

What? She never said the word "France" at all. I think you mistook "France" for "friends".

Palin defends her remark about foreign policy experience

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
September 26, 2008
Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin defended her remark that the proximity of Russia to her home state of Alaska gives her foreign policy experience, explaining in a CBS interview airing yesterday that "we have trade missions back and forth."

Palin's foreign policy experience arose when she gave her first major interview on Sept. 11 to ABC News. Asked what insight she had gained from living so close to Russia, she said: "They're our next-door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska."

When CBS News anchor Katie Couric asked how Alaska's closeness to Russia enhanced her foreign policy experience, Palin said, "Well, it certainly does because our ... our next-door neighbors are foreign countries."

Palin didn't answer directly when Couric inquired about whether she had been involved in negotiations with the Russians. "We have trade missions back and forth," she replied.

I honestly am not following this very much at all, so I can not provide any thorough opinions on this topic, however, I did come into work yesterday to sit with my boss and watch this interview. Palin is unbelievable....and if elected, she is the back up option in a US Presidential crisis???


Posted by Cosmic Fur on Oct-02-2008 14:52:

The more I think about this, the more choosing Palin as VP makes sense. She (like Bush) appeals to the majority of American voters because like them, she has little to no idea of what's going on in the world. Americans can identify with that.

Did you even watch it? Palin's not blonde.

Nor does she mention France.

Still a brutal answer though. The guy's commentary on the interview was spot on.

It was? He concluded that because she supports democracy, she therefore supports Hamas. That's equivalent to suggesting that because you are a criminal lawyer you believe in the clients you are forced to defend.

She believes in the process of democracy - not necessarily the same as believing in the outcome of it.


Posted by Cosmic Fur on Oct-02-2008 16:21:

It'd be great if she actually said that though. Instead she went off on some tangent.

No, he was basically saying that since she did not clearly answer the questions, that is the conclusion you could be lead to. Then he says somebody should ask the Mcain campaign about that stance. He knows that she does not support Hamas because she does not know who they are.

I don't think you can make that conclusion at all from what she says. That's my point.

Anyone watching? I can't watch our federal debate - they're all talking over one another and it's maddening!

Palin is doing much better than I was expecting....certainly better than in the Couric interview. She does have appeal as the every day american citizen who can speak to people from the heart when she's allowed to by her political advisors.

I had to stop watching as she was hurting my head. She won't answer any questions. Asked a mortgage question, brought up energy independence. Just one example.

Biden was being much more specific.

But realistically they are over glorified cheer leaders for their respective party leaders. "Mcain said this" "Obama did this".

if republicans win, it will be 4 years of take your daughter to work day

Both of them are guilty for not answering questions directly...both have been called on it already.

True. I just thought Biden was being more to the point, more specific, with actual examples. Palin seems to stay on the surface, with general ideas.


Posted by ChemEnhanced on Oct-03-2008 01:58:

I can't understand why people would even watch a VP debate....especially if you are not even american.....and when our own debate is on....now the leaders debate...that's a different story
