AsburySkinsFan Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Palin "annoyed" with CBS interviewer FORT WAYNE, Indiana (CNN) – Campaigning Saturday in Fort Wayne, Indiana, a city once represented in Congress by another vice presidential candidate named Dan Quayle, Sarah Palin delivered one of her longest stump speeches to date and revealed that she was “annoyed” with the line of questioning presented by Katie Couric in her now-infamous interview with CBS. Palin reprised a story she last told a week ago in Noblesville, Indiana about her sit-down with Couric, which was widely panned. “Last time I was here I got to tell a crowd that I had to give a national interview that didn’t go so well,” she said. “And it was because I was kind of annoyed with the questions that I was being asked because I thought they were kind of irrelevant to, you know, national security issues and getting our economy back on track, so I kind of showed some of that annoyance.” Couric did, in fact, ask Palin several questions about the economy and national security, focusing in particular on the congressional bailout package, the mortgage crisis, John McCain’s record on regulation, the war in Afghanistan, hunting terrorists in Pakistan, Russia, Iran, Syria, Israel and the role of the United States in the world. Palin joked, however, about another line of questioning. “But I think the one question that I answered that everyone could agree on, it maybe shows where my heart is… too is, she asked me this relevant question: What was my favorite movie? And I said ‘Hoosiers!’” The governor continued to press the campaign’s message of the day: that Barack Obama and congressional Democrats will, if elected, expand government and redistribute the hard-earned dollars of regular Americans, criticisms that brought on accusatory shouts of “socialist!,” “Communist!” and, at one point, “Hussein the socialist!” Palin said that on election day, “what we're going to have to do together, voters, what we have to do is fight for what is right and free and uniquely American. Let us put our trust in each other, not big government.” The Indiana crowd — easily Palin’s largest of the day — was warmed up by country legend Hank Williams, Jr., who often appears at Palin campaign events to perform his recently-penned ode to the GOP ticket: “McCain-Palin tradition.” But Williams may have been channeling the enthusiasm of the crowds for Palin — and also reflecting recent reports that Palin is “going rogue” with an eye toward the 2012 presidential race. At one point during his performance, he intentionally scrambled the song’s lyrics and put the Alaskan at the top of the ticket, praising a “Palin-McCain tradition.” That musical witticism earned Williams a loud cheer from the crowd. Gotta love the irrelevant questions about foreign policy experience and the totally relevant Presidential views on favorite movies: Hoosiers....really? The instate sports movie pander?! OMGness. I also love the fact that the Palin campaign is now for a second time placing Palin at the top of the ticket, and here the first time I heard it I thought it was a slip, now it seems to be speaking with a bit more authority.

Clearly she is destroying any chance McCain has of being elected. N/M they are all clearly extremists anyway;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly she is destroying any chance McCain has of being elected. This isn't the first time this has happened. 0:34 seconds is what you want to watch What's more is that the campaign signs, t-shirts, hats and buttons are also highlighting Palin over McCain, there are several signs around me that say in huge letters "Sarah!" with a small McCain/Palin 2008 written underneith...coincidence...yeah right. The bride's maid is upstaging the bride. http://www.johnmccain08store.com/eshop/10Browse.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81artmonk Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Blah, blah, blah. Same old, same old. We can point out just as many blunders and stupid speech stuff on the other side with Biden. I's surprised people left out the republicans saying obama is a terrorist or Hussien or muslim. Give it some time they will :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it some time they will :doh: You continually confuse mis-speaking with just plain not knowing what you're talking about. There is a big difference between a slip of the tounge and having no idea what in the hell you're talking about. You can't seem to grasp this, as the response you gave in this thead is the same one you give any every other thread about Palin and her lack of knowledge.
