In Palin Language

I found the most recent interview with Sarah Palin and Katie Couric to be scholarly and cerebral so I am going to water down the interview's important parts to help YOU make an educated decision on November 4th.

Katie Couric: The lobbying firm of Sen. John McCain's campaign manager received payments from the controversial mortgage giant Freddie Mac until last month.

Sarah Palin: Did not!

Katie Couric: Did too!

Sarah Palin: Did not!

****************** ****************** ******************* ***********************

Couric: And when it comes to establishing your worldview, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this to stay informed and to understand the world?

Palin: I've read most of them, again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media.

Couric: What, specifically?

Palin: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me all these years.

Couric: Can you name a few?

Palin: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news, too. Alaska isn't a foreign country, where it's kind of suggested, "Wow, how could you keep in touch with what the rest of Washington, D.C., may be thinking when you live up there in Alaska?" Believe me, Alaska is like a microcosm of America.

Oops, the above was NOT written by me but the ACTUAL words that vomited out of Sarah Palin's mouth. I don't think it can get much more simple than that....

For goodness sake, Sarah! Newsweek! Time! The Enquirer! Goodnight, Moon! Just name something you've read!!!!

And this whole idea of "gotcha" journalism... since when is a voter asking a question and you speaking the first thought in your head "gotcha" journalism? It wasn't Katie Couric that asked that! And if it was, that is EXACTLY what the media is SUPPOSED to be doing -- asking questions so that we, the voters, know what YOU, the running VP, believe in.

I can't wait to see the debate on Thursday night.
