Palin interview with Couric

[blue]

Umm

[RICHARD]

Couric was really funny(read stupid).


"I want to ask you about the Alaskan HIghway and the reason why it goes north to south parallel to the longitudinal lines the demarcate the planet on a globe or map but are mysteriously absent on the earth. Satellitie photos don'st show them either and how will that affect your Vice presidency when you wear red socks, no, not like the baseball team?"

Her questions were more convoluted than my large intestine after an evening of cool ranch Doritos, tequila and that real hot sauce I like.

Couric has about as much political saavy as one of my cat's nail clippings. Someone threw her this 'bone' of an interview and she ran with it.

Right into a wall.

Give Katie back her old job of interviewing 'stars' and asking about where people shop. Otherwise she's just a seat warmer.

Personally, I find that video frightening. What was McCain thinking . . . . .

Oh wow, I can't wait to see the VP debate. I guess ignorance really
is bliss.

Awwww, come on.

Biden prefaces his own ignorance by saying "part of what a leader does is to instill confidence, to demonstrate he or she knows what they are talking about"

Then he 'demonstrates' for us by not knowing who the President was at the time of the '29 crash, and that he couldn't have possibly 'gone on TV'

That is CLASSIC!!!!


Palin was just trying to pad her resume. Just like every other resume or bio I've ever seen, from anybody about anything. It didn't strike me as funny, just weak.

What kind of people do you know? I look at resumes every day. And I check on the claims made on those resumes.

People pad...they don't get hired.

Sad to see "resume padding"....aka lying...excused as "everyone does it!"

Well, in the entertainment industry resumes are padded routinely.

"performed extensively abroad/ worldwide" can mean worked on a cruise ship.

I know that's not the 'day job' resumes that you are looking at. However, they are out there and how do you define lying vs padding? And how do you confirm it, in my example?

I agree that Sarah Palin shouldn't make it sound as if she has experience that she doesn't have. The question is, why would she think she has to do this when Obama has no real experience either.

You said it!

It's like this. Earlier this week on a flight from London to New York a passenger became sick. The plane was diverted to Dublin Ireland.

If Ms. Palin was on that plane and said she had been to Ireland would that be "padding" or "lying"?

You ask how I would determine if an applicant was lying/padding. I would ask her what she saw, where she went, how long she was there.

And bonus points for "What about Bill Clinton lying." Back to everyone else does it so it is okay" argument?
