OK - I’ve been looking but so far no luck.

The interview was disgusting...the camera angles were deliberate to show Mrs. Palin in an awkward seating position,,,shooting across her position to contrast her physical size with GIbson’s....gad I am so fed up with the media hacks ...who appointed these people to the position of public inquisitor....

One thing about the internet, this crap the media has been feeding us for years can be brought to light before we never would have known what the genuine quote was.

I love that she made her points. She punctuated those points with the use of his name - Charlie. Now, suddenly, his fellow commentators and hosts are referring to him as Charles. I also loved how her body almost never moved. There was a little rotation of the ankle on occasion, a hand gesture, but that woman was as calm and relaxed and in control of the situation as it is possible to be. Thank you, also, for referring to her as Gov. Palin. I don’t like it that we’re calling her Sarah. Nobody called President Reagan Ron.

She had to invalidate the charge that she’s inaccessible to the media.

And there’s not a real woman who could miss it. I think she gave him a few warning looks but he was just like those idiots your sister was talking about and it didn’t faze him.

I do not expect that it would be made public. Imagine all the email he would get. LOL. Still, I’d love to tell him a thing or two. I’d be nice. I think.

No kidding. That’s why he immediately became Charles to his cohorts.

Back when I was in college, I recall that a lot of good folks in Texas would refer to President Reagan as Ronnie. No offense was meant. They just felt endeared to the man.

The segment on global warming was unbelievable. Gibson uses the his best "I'm appalled" tone as he questions "Do you still (emphasis his) think global warming isn't man-made?" IMO Palin fell into the trap a bit and tried to give the PC answer, whereas she should have been a little more forceful in her questioning of the whole malarky, but once again, Gibson's condescension just oozes.

Thank you for posting that. I only saw Brit’s clips and missed that bit. What did Charlie say to that?

As I told my children, there are a##holes in this world, learn to deal with them.

We used to do all our business at a NAPA store for over 20 yrs, average 1K a month and then they changed hands. I went in one day and the owner treated me much the same way Gibson treated Sarah with a curled lip and a condescending manner and I left without buying anything.

I didn’t run home and whine to my husband but I was furious and when a few weeks later my husband remarked about how rude the man was I told him my story and we changed parts stores.

Palin spoke like a great leader. Real Conservative, havn’t had leadership like this since Ronald Reagan.

Alaska has preserved her and kept her isolated from the spineless PC mentality down here.

UUUURRRRAAAAAHHHHH

Gidbson talked down to her like a sexist pig. This will be anayzed for the next few weeks and he will continue to give the lamestream media a blackeye.

President Reagan endeared himself to these people. I can see them calling him Ronnie amongst themselves. But this is a public forum, and while they might not be engaging with us, we are certainly being monitored by them. That’s why I refer to her as Palin or Gov. Palin.

It was a hit piece that backfired totally.

She was on him from the get go, leaning forward while it seems he was trying to back up. Poor Charlie didn't seem at all comfortable with being thrown in the pit with Sarah.

Gibson is getting the crap beat out of him on the ABC web site. Go see for yourself. Leave your comment, pro or con, if you like.

One can wish! My wife and I watched the interview and were astonished, yet not surprised at the way the interview was done. I watched my wife and saw the look only a woman could have when seeing another woman talked down to the way “Charlie” did, and the way the interview was edited.
