Sarah Palin • Affirmative Action?

5 Years ago, this woman was selling camping equipment. In 6 months, she could be President of The United States of America.

I hope you got to peep the first installment of the Charlie Gibson interview with this snowbilly. She is SOOOOOO out of her depth, it's not even funny. I mean, even cooter and bubba are going to be embarrassed about how stoopid and ignant this heffa sounds.

GIBSON: Do you agree with the Bush doctrine? PALIN: In what respect, Charlie? GIBSON: The Bush -- well, what do you -- what do you interpret it to be? PALIN: His world view. GIBSON: No, the Bush doctrine, enunciated September 2002, before the Iraq war. PALIN: I believe that what President Bush has attempted to do is rid this world of Islamic extremism, terrorists who are hell bent on destroying our nation. There have been blunders along the way, though. There have been mistakes made. And with new leadership, and that's the beauty of American elections, of course, and democracy, is with new leadership comes opportunity to do things better. GIBSON: The Bush doctrine, as I understand it, is that we have the right of anticipatory self-defense, that we have the right to a preemptive strike against any other country that we think is going to attack us. Do you agree with that?

PALIN: Charlie, if there is legitimate and enough intelligence that tells us that a strike is imminent against American people, we have every right to defend our country. In fact, the president has the obligation, the duty to defend.

GIBSON: Do we have the right to be making cross-border attacks into Pakistan from Afghanistan, with or without the approval of the Pakistani government?

PALIN: Now, as for our right to invade, we're going to work with these countries, building new relationships, working with existing allies, but forging new, also, in order to, Charlie, get to a point in this world where war is not going to be a first option. In fact, war has got to be, a military strike, a last option.

GIBSON: But, Governor, I'm asking you: We have the right, in your mind, to go across the border with or without the approval of the Pakistani government.

PALIN: In order to stop Islamic extremists, those terrorists who would seek to destroy America and our allies, we must do whatever it takes and we must not blink, Charlie, in making those tough decisions of where we go and even who we target.

GIBSON: And let me finish with this. I got lost in a blizzard of words there. Is that a yes? That you think we have the right to go across the border with or without the approval of the Pakistani government, to go after terrorists who are in the Waziristan area?

PALIN: I believe that America has to exercise all options in order to stop the terrorists who are hell bent on destroying America and our allies. We have got to have all options out there on the table.

Wow. Damn CNu. I didn't see that. Got a link to the video?

What strikes me, however, is not her inability to demonstrate dogmatic acuity - it is her tremendous ability to seamlessly reinforce the meme that equates the religion of Islam with with fanaticism and terror.

I submit that the real contest here has little to do with whichever candidate is announced the winner by this reality tv show we call an electoral process - but the ability to infect the American collective consciousness with the hypnotic suggestion that an entire religion is evil.

Today the Fanatical Secularists are targeting Imams and Islam. Tomorrow they will be targeting Jesus Freaks and Christianity.

CNu,
Dont spoil it. We in LA, west coast time, 2-3 hours behind, remember.

DV, it comes on at 6:30 this evening in LA.

Denmark Vesey said...

OH. Cool Robyn.

TiVo baby!

CNu said...

DV, seriously magne, you have to see this shit to believe it. It just doesn't get any more pathetic than this.

CNu said...

No spoilers Robyn, just re-presented for convenient reference, dissection, and derision.

The woman is dumb as a brick (she's ready to go to war with Russia over Georgia), but that ain't gonna matter to the white female populace.

She's a white woman. That's qualification enough.

Uhhhhhh....well, if there's one universal bipartisan common denominator in this country...it's Jewish extremism. And it's really what's destroying America.

So, why aren't we stopping that?

Overall, I think the interview was basically an attempt to make her look bad. Like, Charlie spent all night doing homework to find trivia questions to trip her up on.

I mean, specifically asking about the "Bush Doctrine" from 2002 - what is this, Jeopardy? I don't even know what stupid speech he gave then, and I doubt most of the other candidates do either (but they were never asked on the spot). You don't have to though to know his general foreign policy (Zionist hegemony).

Was any other candidate asked such detailed trivia questions? I don't think so...

Anyhow, it's a good match up between the 2 main affirmative action poster kids in this country - women & Blacks. So, she does enjoy a "protected species" status similar to Obama (that McCain lacks).

CNu said...

just what I said on the other thread, same killer-ape tribe from the exact same political spectrum - purely unselfconscious identity politics brought to you by turdeye..,

Denmark Vesey said...

What are you saying CNu?

Byrdeye is just as guilty of practicing identity politics as .... everyone else?

Or White Men are the ultimate practitioners of ID Politics?

I missed the punchline.

Byrd are you saying Gibson intentionally tried to make Palin look bad? Or was he trying to make himself look good?

Is the corporate media not rubber stamping these purveyors of insane Zionist extremist anti-Islam warmongering rhetoric designed to instigate a clash of the world's two great religions?

2 billion Chrisitians
1.4 billion Muslims
13 million Jews

How does a mouse defeat two lions?

He gets them to fight each other.

"Byrd are you saying Gibson intentionally tried to make Palin look bad? Or was he trying to make himself look good?"

Probably both. The Georgia question was a fair one. But I think the "Bush Doctrine" one was clearly douchey. Seriously, does anyone here even know what the 6-yo "Bush Doctrine" was offhand?

"How does a mouse defeat two lions?
He gets them to fight each other."

Indeed. They are the real terrorists - complete with global sleeper cells. Homegrown enemies who have now taken over their unsuspecting host. What they lack in numbers, they make up for in money, influence and mass media manipulation.

CNu said...

conservatism is not fundamentally about ideology, but about the preservation of elite power, maintained as a form of identity politics. Elites then claim “natural” leadership, in the name of protecting, defending and exemplifying the group identity against evil, enemy “others.” Ideology matters to the conservative project solely as a means for justification, including identity formation. It supports the forms of policies, practices and institutions that preserve group identity and power—and, thereby, elite rule. Consistency matters to this ideology only insofar as it proves necessary. Therefore, “the abandonment of conservative principles” is to be expected when those principles no longer serve those in power.

America’s history of racism provides examples of how conservatism adapts, responding to repeated movements for social justice, which profoundly alter the relationships of radical, liberal and conservative forces. Inconsistencies are generated at multiple levels whenever this happens.

Thanks T. You too brotha.

I dont think Charlie was trying to make her look bad, he just didnt go soft like everyone else would have. Moreover it wasnt the questions that made it appear that they were intended to trip her up, it was her demeanor and plain inability to speak casually and intelligently while undre pressure.

Just cuz one is a punk, doesnt make their opponent a bully.

Oh, and just b/c I forgot to say it......

She's a freakin disgrace.

pre-approved questions, a week to prepare and assistance from a myriad of aides and that's the best she could do.

CNu said...

Thank you, thank you, thank you for saying it Robyn!!!

I'm beginning to think I'm losing my mind what with folks all across the media sphere pretending that she didn't bring shame to the entire process and enterprise.

I mean just dayyum...,

I don't so much mind political disagreement with a qualified adversary as much as disagreement with someone plainly not qualified to be holding forth in public, at all!!!

She is the absolute embodiment of what my man rembom quoted Menken as saying;

“When a candidate for public office faces the voters he does not face men of sense; he faces a mob of men whose chief distinguishing mark is that they are quite incapable of weighing ideas, or even of comprehending any save the most elemental — men whose whole thinking is done in terms of emotion, and whose dominant emotion is dread of what they cannot understand. So confronted, the candidate must either bark with the pack, or count himself lost. His one aim is to disarm suspicion, to arouse confidence in his orthodoxy, to avoid challenge. If he is a man of convictions, of enthusiasm, or self-respect, it is cruelly hard…

“The larger the mob, the harder the test. In small areas, before small electorates, a first rate man occasionally fights his way through, carrying even a mob with him by the force of his personality. But when the field is nationwide, and the fight must be waged chiefly at second or third hand, and the force of personality cannot so readily make itself felt, then all the odds are on the man who is, intrinsically the most devious and mediocre — the man who can most adeptly disperse the notion that his mind is a virtual vacuum.

“The Presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their hearts desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”

—H.L. Mencken, The Baltimore Evening Sun, July 26, 1920

Right, and was Obama asked such specific, hard-hitting questions?

No. So obviously, there's a liberal journalistic bias here.

I think it would have been fair to ask her what she thought about Bush's agenda or policies in general. However, to single out some obscure sermon from 2002 to test her memory...gimme a break. That's basically irrelevant.

Or, if he was really that interested in some issue from it, he could have quoted a particular line from that doctrine and asked her about it. But, the whole point was not to get her opinion on it, but to put her on the spot and make her look bad if she couldn't remember specific details from some 6-yo speech. As if anybody else does...

Anonymous said...

Byrdeye,

Have you forgotten that the McCain cap required that the questions be pre-approved?

So regardless of how obscure the Bush Doctrine in your opinion, the truth is that this broad failed an open book exam.

Give me a fucking break!

I thought you prided yourself on calling a spade a spade. I'm actually surprised.

Anonymous said...

^ Can you provide a factual source that says all her questions were pre-approved?

All I found so far was this:

Charles Gibson's producer says no issue is off the table for Sarah Palin's first TV interview as a vice presidential candidate, which ABC is hoping it can air in part on Thursday.

Anonymous said...

how do rjesq and cnulan know the questions were pre-approved? are they just speculating or do they have evidence?

thank you

CNu said...

Robyn,

As if any proofs or apologetics were required for this monkey (when quite clearly they're not) - the racist reptiliantor has quite obviously not seen the Bill'O interview with Obama.

Obama has held his own admirably not only when questioned by journalists, but also when interrogated by faux noise's chief ethnonationalist squawk box!!!

Not that you had ANY credibility to begin with turdeye, but the longer you harp on your petty grievances against everyone who is a non-white male, the more insufferable you become.

Anonymous said...

cnulan - You're a smart cat. I assume you verify any rumors before blindly regurgitating them? So, could you please show me your verifiable source that all of Palin's questions were pre-approved for this interview?

Or...admit you were wrong?

No essay answer required here. Just:

a) Show me the source
--- or ---
b) Admit you're wrong

Thanks. :)

It'll be a cold day in hell before you ever catch me slippin.

The only claim I made about paling is that she's ignorant snowbilly trash, repulsive and dangerous because she's bringing out all of your inner reptiles.

You and all the bizarre figments of your indiscriminate racist imagination are a hoot turdeye. Here's a newsflash for you - the only aliens we EVER need concern ourselves with in this world are the monsters lurking within your collective ids....,

CNu said...

Henceforward I'm going to refer to Byrdeye and his people as the Alienators. These muhphuggaz do everything in their power to make the rest of the planet, (not just the humans - but even the planet itself) hate them - and then have the nerve and audacity to try and pretend that they're not so bad, not the worst of the killer-ape species after all.

According to them, they're hated because of their "freedoms" and because of "their way of life".....,

And if living in a "White k-gaming" country = oppression to you, would you say that living under "liberated Black" rule in Africa would be better? And if not, does that mean that living in a "White k-gaming" culture actually uplifts, not oppresses you?

Well, ebonics is much closer to the King's English than any African language. So, who really has the deeper attraction to whose culture here?

Maybe it's time you stepped out of the forest so you could see it?

Let's put it this ways - if White culture was on one end of the spectrum and Black culture on the other - you'd be faaarrrrr closer to the White end. You speak English, wear "Western" dress and are probably Christian. Remember, language and religion are 2 of the strongest hallmarks of one's culture. And I wager yours are mostly Anglo/Jewish in nature - NOT African by any stretch.


according to ontological reality and all relevant facts, they're hated because they "alienate" every single living thing with which they come into contact, without exception and without fail....,

"It'll be a cold day in hell before you ever catch me slippin."

Sorry, anonymous had actually claimed you made that claim. Hence I amended it for rjesq...

And YES cnulan, ETs & exopolitics are a FACT OF LIFE. Sorry to bust your dogmatic worldview according to our military-industrial complex. And again, I will STAKE MY REP on this. Don't worry, you're just behind the curve but will eventually see... :)

I saw the point in the news. Some republican talking head, said that since she had been the subject of such viscious media attacks of late, they wouldnt let her go in blind.

Sorry, dont know the name. BUt i saw it. Tried to google didnt see anything, but Im not playing inspector gadget either.

My point still stands.

and I agree with Cnu, you couldnt tell all that shit was canned? My man Stevie could have seen it.

Uh, that's what I thought...

You do realize that political commentators often make a lot of general remarks and open speculations, which are often just personal opinions, and not facts?

I acknowledge the point Byrd, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. Just because it doesnt appear in plain text on google, doesnt make it a lie.

And exactly how is this statement incorrect?

Big Man said...

I notice Birdeye ignored CNu's point about Obama and Reilly.

Plus, Obama has been questioned on his experience, his pastor and his wife. Palin hasn't had to answer for any of that.
