Nice try asswipe.

Sarah with Greta on immigration:

VAN SUSTEREN: Governor, you know, before economics hit us so heavily in the last month or so as a topic, the thing that grabbed people’s attention was illegal immigration. And that was the big problem for a long time. What’s your thought on that? I mean, what’s — how do can we fix the illegal immigration issue in this country?

GOV. SARAH PALIN: We’ve got to secure the borders, and we can’t be considering this broad range of amnesty that some would want. We’ve got to secure the borders and prove to the American people that the federal government is serious about this, and it’s got to be a comprehensive approach to dealing with the immigration challenge that we have — securing the borders, working with our border governors and mayors. They’re there on the front lines, understanding what some of the solutions can be, if only they have an administration who will work with them.

And McCain has a great comprehensive approach that he wants to take to this. It includes dealing humanely, too, with the 12 million or 13 million illegal immigrants that we have today also. But until we secure the borders, I don’t think Americans are even going to believe that we’re serious about fixing some of the problems that are just inherent with this challenge of so many illegal immigrants here.

Now, unfortunately, with McCain’s supporting proposal for this comprehensive approach to fixing problems there, there were about five poison pill amendments provided in the comprehensive approach that McCain wanted. And Barack Obama voted for those poison pills, killed the whole initiative, and we still have the problem that we have today.

Illegal immigration, though, is a perfect example of how these parties had better start working together, the D’s and the R’s, get it together if they’re serious about addressing the problem of illegal immigration. It’s not a Republican or a Democrat problem. It’s all of America’s issue.

Entire interview at link; scroll down to the end, as it’s one of the very last questions Greta asks of her.

Thanks for posting that link and this info:

GOV. SARAH PALIN: We’ve got to secure the borders, and we can’t be considering this broad range of amnesty that some would want. We’ve got to secure the borders and prove to the American people that the federal government is serious about this, and it’s got to be a comprehensive approach to dealing with the immigration challenge that we have — securing the borders, working with our border governors and mayors.

And Sarah gave that interview when she was McCain's running mate! However, those that use negative news accounts to convey their "well-meaning concern" for Sarah's policy stands, and say they are looking out for the best interest of conservatives will never mention Sarah as practically the only one in the GOP who publicly takes on Obama directly regarding his policies.  Nope, they would rather go and find some old biased interview so they can cry about being misled or confused about Palin's political stands.

They have no interest in finding out the facts, nor are they interested in finding out about what she really thinks or what she stands for.  Their goal is to use irrelevant interviews to bring her down.  Man, at this rate we should be seeing big titles anytime now for, "Sarah Palin's dreadful interview with Katie Couric" and the following comment:

Hey folks, watch the interview. I'm so concerned about Sarah's ignorance and lack of knowledge that we need to spread the word on this site. I am concerned for America and support Conservatism and Constitutionalism in Government as the rest of us on this site do. And as Americans first and Conservatives second we must stand against any and all politicians who say on public TV that they can see Russia from their home – well, she actually said, "Russia, is our next-door neighbor, and they are right next to our state." But never mind, everyone believes Tina Fey's memorable words (that she can see Russia from her home) as coming from Sarah's mouth, and that's all to it, folks. 

So let's get moving and stop this woman from even trying to be a candidate.
