Theodore's World

Gibson is a non-food biomass. He does for journalism what David Gergen does for hair styling.

I liked how she constantly addressed him as "Charley". He tried to talk down to her but she wasn't having no part of it. I thought she was great.

I watched the Obama interview first, then Palin,'s--as I watched the Palin interview what came to me was that line from an old tuna fish commercial--"Sorry Charlie". She did great.

Yes, Gibson is an interrogator and an asshole. He attacked and she answered his loaded questions skillfully. He expected her to hedge the answers or fall flat. Instead, Sarah Palin proved beyond doubt that she is knowledgable, articulate, intelligent and tough enough to handle the job of either Vice President or President. He tried to trip her up and instead gave her a boost.

F--- Charlie Gibson. His ilk are why I quit watching the news.

Thank you Tom. I almost lapsed into the vernacular myself. I truly loath that asshole!!!
For anyone especially Gibson to call themselves a journalist is a lie. He's just a Communist operative. Like that old tuna ad he hasn't got it, Sorry Charlie!!!

While I do not care for Gibson any more than the rest of you, I am rather pleased with his questions and methods BECAUSE it gives Sarah a golden opportunity to shine and to let everyone else know what a bunch of idiots most reporters are!! And shine she did!!!! I loved it when Gibson kept asking her about Israel taking out the nuke plants in Iran and she stuck to her guns and reiterated 3 times that "we can not 2nd guess" their actions!!! I think by the third time, Gibson either got the message or was so frustrated by her steadfast resolution that he gave up and changed the subject. This is the kind of determination and fortitude that this country needs and Sarah came through with flying colors!!!!!!!!! Comparing this interview with the Obama interview - THERE IS NO COMPARISON!!!! She blew the socks of of both Gibson and Obama!!! I can't wait to see her up against Biden!!! I hope the paramedics are standing by because Biden is going to need a blood transfusion when she gets done with him!!!!!

Out of idle curiosity how does a part time Senator and community activist (helping those that won’t help themselves) cut it over a Mayor(small town)
Governor of Alaska…You know what she has done. May I be so bold as to
ask what has he done, anyone, anyone, Bueller , Bueller????

As much of an asshole as Charlie Gibson was (Gee, Charlie, why don't *you* tell us what *you* think the Bush Doctrine is), did Sarah Palin really do that well?

I do hope that she realizes that even the "professional" journalists (I used to think Charlie Gibson was one) will not play fair. I think she should have been more guarded. (Unless you define holding her own as a victory, in which case, yes, Sarah won.)

Charlie Gibson descended to the level of those tarts on "The View". Seriously, fuck ABC. Sorry for all the cursing, but I am so enraged. (Then again, most of the readers here are military, right?) :)

The simple fact of the matter is that Charlie Gibson would be falling all over himself praising the qualifications had the interview been with Democratic VP candidate and governor of Kansas, Kathleen Sebelius. He never would have questioned or even discussed whether Gov. Sebelius was qualified to be President on Day One. The real question that Charlie Gibson and his ilk won't raise to Barack Obama and the voters is that "Is he qualified to be President on Day One?" What in Barack Hussein Obama's thin resume make's him more qualified than Palin to be President on Day One?

As far as the "Bush Doctrine" goes, that was an obvious Obama talking point Gibson used to reinforce the Democrats strategy tying McCain/Palin to Bush. He could have stated the "doctrine" and asked her what her thoughts were.

The best answer for me was about going into Pakistan on our own if need be which Gibson knew that Bush privately authorized in July. Palin answered with the overall statement that everything was on the table and wouldn't make the diplomatic mistake of publicly saying, no matter how many times that Gibson repeated the question, that she would invade Pakistan and rub the governments nose in it with such public and explicit language. That is what Obama did earlier in the year when he did say that he would invade Pakistan to get Osama bin Laden.

I will watch the rest of the Palin interview tonight and hope that she continues to handle herself well to the voters approval, the ones that matter in November.

I was disappointed but not surprised how McCain threw Palin under the bus at Columbia Univ. last night. I hope somebody takes him out to the wood shed and tells him not to blow it. Sarah Palin is both his and the Party's savior.

Gibson didn't lay a glove on her. Touchdown, and the two point conversion is.....Good.

She burned him good.

Of the people mentioned above until you get to the oval who really has foreign policy experience. What president with the exception of Carter and Clinton doesn't appoint great advisors anyway.

She didn't, uh or any anda's. she was in perfect form.

We are on our way. This lady is World Class...

Sorry Charly.

Actually, I forgot about John Stossel. I guess I can't entirely write off ABC.

Rhod, LOL I love this.

"Gibson is a non-food biomass. He does for journalism what David Gergen does for hair styling."

BobF, I agree I think using his name was a great idea.

tom,haha oh yess Charlie the tuna commercials, yes I remember them.

TomR, Ditto all you said!!! He had a chance to show he was a serious interviewer that would not put his parties agenda first and he failed miserably.

"Yes, Gibson is an interrogator and an asshole. He attacked and she answered his loaded questions skillfully. He expected her to hedge the answers or fall flat. Instead, Sarah Palin proved beyond doubt that she is knowledgable, articulate, intelligent and tough enough to handle the job of either Vice President or President. He tried to trip her up and instead gave her a boost.

F--- Charlie Gibson."

Jack he sure is........"He's just a Communist operative."

John, looking at it that way I know what you mean. She was put through the mill and she came out with flying colors. Thank you John.

"She blew the socks of of both Gibson and Obama!!! "

Tincan Sailor........" Bueller , Bueller????"

ROTFLMAO good one Tincan Sailor!

Nick Byram, yes most here are Veterans, I would say 90 percent. Never be concerned with cursing, I am married to a Navy Veteran. haha
He swears at the TV nightly when we watch the political shows.

Les, yes I saw that on TV last night too, thank you for the link.
He said too about putting Obama in a job if he (McCain) wins. That was not necessary at all.

Obama when asked the same thing made it obvious he was not interested in doing a single thing for McCain.

Mark.....love it.......

"Gibson didn't lay a glove on her. Touchdown, and the two point conversion"

Nick Byram, yes he is on there too, I forgot as well.
