GIBSON: What insight into Russian actions, particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of the state give you?
PALIN: They’re our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.
GIBSON: What insight does that give you into what they’re doing in Georgia?
PALIN: Well, I’m giving you that perspective of how small our world is and how important it is that we work with our allies to keep good relation with all of these countries, especially Russia. We will not repeat a Cold War. We must have good relationship with our allies, pressuring, also, helping us to remind Russia that it’s in their benefit, also, a mutually beneficial relationship for us all to be getting along.

Did Mr Gibson, or any other MSM a-hole, ever ask candidate Obama a similar question? I don't remember it - what I remember is them filling in the answers for him i.e. "my Muslim....errr...Christian faith".

Thanks so much for the three year old Palin interview when she was still a bit wet behind the ears.

Here's a more recent inteview.

CAIN: I support the Second Amendment.

BLITZER: So you don’t? What’s the answer on gun control?

CAIN: The answer on gun control is I support, strongly support, the Second Amendment. I don’t support onerous legislation that’s going to restrict people’s rights in order to be able to protect themselves as guaranteed by the Second Amendment.

BLITZER: Should states or local governments be allowed to the gun situation . . .

CAIN: Yes

BLITZER: So the answer is yes?

CAIN: Yes. The answer is yes, that should be a state’s decision.

And your point is? Because she is correct about Russia, both technically and philosophically. There is land in Alaska from which you can see Russia.

But I suspect that is not your issue. You probably don’t get how she was transitioning from a physical reality to a political reality. Somewhere there is an unedited transcript of that very dialogue, in which she fleshes out her meaning quite well, having to do with special security and economic issues she had to deal with due to her proximity to Russia, including missile defense. Gibson maliciously hacked it down to support a narrative being crafted by the left to defend Obama from a serious threat to his victory.

BTW, I looked at your home page, and we are on the same page on every issue you list. Every one. So I don’t understand your willingness to use propaganda materials designed by the left to take down one of our own. Support Cain if you like, and object to Palin if you must, but objections not well grounded in truth will only cost you credibility here. Your choice, of course.

Peace,
