Yeah, I noticed the transcript had several things my ears hadn’t heard. I don’t have video on my puter, so can’t see YouTube and haven’t been able to play it over again, but have seen it at least 9-10 times on regular TV.
Every time, I specifically listened to what she was saying in place of “Iraq,” because it sure wasn’t “Iraq” and each time it *sounded like* “Die-raq” to me.
I realize different pairs of ears hear different things, but that was just my take on it, time after time. I had a feeling she wanted to bring up Darfur and wasn’t sure of the name, so sort of combined “dying” and “dar” and “raq,” lol.
Heaven knows how her brain thinks. I also didn’t hear the word “maps” in the early part of her answer (which seemed like it lasted a whooole lot longer than that little transcript indicates!) - all I heard her say each time was “some Americans don’t have ‘those’” or maybe “that” - with no indication as to what “those/that” were in reference, except that “maps” had been in the original question.
If she had been in so many pageants before, in order to get to the state level, I don’t see how she was “flustered.” I think she’s just not very bright.
It all reminded me of these PSA’s they run now on the MSM about ADHD kids not having a disorder - that they will all *own us* when they grow up and we should bow to that. Ugh.
“but have seen it at least 9-10 times on regular TV.”
The MSM showcases any kind of carnage for the viewing audience to dine on.
And the general public slurps up the chum, chasing the guy in the cage with the camera .

Another good reason not to have TV. Egad!
Addendum to my post #85 - I just saw my umpteenth rerun of whatever her name is, the “U.S. American” from whatever state it is that she is from (if I had a map, I could guess) (oh, wait, I *do*).
I listened extra-carefully and finally did hear “maps” as being what some “U.S. Americans” don’t have, so I am now enlightened.
Also saw the 9-1-1 spoof of her - thumbs down. Hope there are better ones out there.
