Short Transcript:
COURIC: You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that?
PALIN: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and on our other side, the land-- boundary that we have with-- Canada. It-- it's funny that a comment like that was-- kind of made to-- cari-- I don't know, you know? Reporters--
COURIC: Mock?
PALIN: Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah.
COURIC: Explain to me why that enhances your foreign policy credentials.
PALIN: Well, it certainly does because our-- our next door neighbors are foreign countries. They're in the state that I am the executive of. And there in Russia--
COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?
PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We-- we do-- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to-- to our state.
NOW I read on CNN that conservative commentators are piling on--George Will, David Brooks, and now even Kathleen Parker! Parker is calling for her to "step down" for the good fo the party. She is dying a slow death--and as Parker says, if she were a man, we would all be laughing at her.
Ed Shultz reported that senior McCain aides are in a panic because she is nowhere near ready for a real debate. The mock debate they had proved that she was clueless, and that is the exact word they used. One aide just said "What are we going to do?"
I'll tell you what you do--YOU GODDAMNED ADMIT YOUR MISTAKE and let this awful person go. But that would be putting Country First. And there will be none of that.
