Go onto abcnews.com and send Charlie a message. I just let him know that he is a weak and spineless partisan that I had not realized before his quasi- mafioso interogation.

"Little lady, we've had all of your disruptiveness we're going to take!"

[the lastbestlady]

Hell, I remember when he was the weatherman.

Gibson showed he was not qualified to do an important national interview. He failed miserably and exposed himself as just the male version of Whoopi Goldberg.

Indeed.

Dripping is a good way to describe his arrogance and creepy overall demeanor. Charlie might as well have been holding his nose and gagging continuously.

Sarah was on to it immediately and maybe just a little hurt by it....I sensed her sadness at his nasty attack mode instead of a genuine interest in her ideas, and I was amazed at her calm acceptance of his childish bullying and her ability to nail him with great fluidity of response and intense eye contact.

He hates that she did not fold under his creepy manipulations and traps. He must be furious that she trashed his ego filled sense of elitism. She punished him in the nicest of ways.

She failed to make him a saint amoung his fellow liberal gooks.

He failed to show Sarah as an airhead.

Sarah ruled.

And McCain has shown us all something many of us never knew he had...an immense sense of character.

Funny you should post that...

I live in one of the most liberal areas of the country. Normally, Conservatives do not discuss politics due to the vicious response they receive about their viewpoints.

Well, the other day I was in my local supermarket and a woman I had never seen before and I remarked about the high price and low quality of the escarole. The discussion then went to the economy and gas prices to the changes in our neighborhood from ‘sanctuary cities’ surrounding us and finally to politics.

She hates Bush. Thinks all Republicans are extreme right wingers (paraphrasing) and then said something very interesting.

After looking over her shoulder, you know the way ppl do when they are about to tell a questionable joke, and tentatively said... “but, ya know, I like Sarah Palin”. When I said I did too, she admitted that she was originally afraid to admit it to her friends but came to find they all like her too.

she doesn’t know why she likes Gov. Palin but she really does, her friends really do. And she is angry how the media is treating her.

I told her it was ok to like Gov Palin. It was, in fact, good for her family and good for her country to like Gov. Palin. Then I gave her my business card with some cool links on the back (to this site and the numbersusa site and a few others) and left feeling that I did my good deed for the day.

It is surprising how this is all turning out. McCain was losing. Now ppl from all walks of life are on his side, mostly out of gathering in protectionism of Gov. Palin in a way that women do when one of are own are threatened.

Geez, the bodies are gonna start pilin’ up fast.

Ouch.. that had to hurt..

[jporcus]

Charlie Gibson was pathetic. I’m also a bit disappointed with his past “colleagues” (including on Fox) who are trying to give him a break, when they really should be saying what is the obvious, that this “interview” was a horribly condescending interrogation that would never happen if Gibson was interviewing a man. Stupid jerk.

[itsahoot]

I fully expect Bill O’Reilly to skewer Charles Gibson, tonight. It will prove Bill is actually a ‘no spin’ champion.

I expect you will be disappointed, He is playing second string to Hannity, who will interview Sarah, on Tuesday.

[MHGinTN]

I’m going to be listening intently to Mark Levin’s show this afternoon ... he is the gentleman who will skewer these liberal pukes at the drop of a hat and his analysis is ALWAYS precise and accurate.

[Doctor Raoul]

And they say Dukakis looked stupid in the tank...

[muawiyah]

Charley "The Tuna" Gibson doesn't even know what the global mean annual temperature is at the surface (no fudging for mountains) and he tried to get the Sarah barracuda into a debate on whether or not ice melts in the summer.

What an idiot!

[ari-freedom]

well it definitely prepares Sarah for the debate with Biden. It’s all for the good, I tell ya

[yazoo]

What’s worse for them is that Palin didn’t whine about being a victim. She answered the questions and didn’t talk about how unfair everyone is to her. This is one of her outstanding qualities.

[muawiyah]

Hanns Scharff was the premier German interrogator of WWII. He never even raised his voice to a POW yet in a simple, maybe even a friendly conversation, he could get vast amounts of useful intelligence.

I know a guy who knew Hanns Scharff. Charles Gibson is no Hanns Scharff!

[hosepipe]

LoL...

[Phlyer]

I wouldn't vote for her as POTUS with her current resume.

What, pray tell, would be your standard then?

After all, Governor Palin has more executive experience (at least in a political/government context) than a few other Presidents - let alone Vice-Presidents.

FDR and Teddy Roosevelt each had only held the elective office of governor - for a nicely coincidental two years - before winning on a national ticket (TR as vice-president).

Oh, and aside from a little military experience and running a farm, one might say that the resume was a little thin for . . . George Washington.

I'm not saying that Sarah Palin is particularly well-qualified for the job, but I think Senators are, in general, even less so. And unlike Governors, I truly think that Senators become less qualified, not more, with more time in Washington.

Because in addition to being executives, they also need to represent the people of the nation, and aside from judges, long-term Senators are probably the most-isolated, most aloof people in public office.

And yes, from that you can tell that I think none of the other three people are terribly well qualified, either. However, since none-of-the-above is not a viable, option, I'll be voting for McCain-Palin as a ticket that became more qualified - not less - when Governor Palin was added to it.

Gibson is as sleazy as the rest at ABCCBSNBC, Euro wannabe’s all. They don’t like America or Americans. They yearn to be Social Euros.

In 1776, they would have supported King George III.

[Right Wing Assault]

In defense of poor Charlie, he really is like a third-stringer. He’s 65 and got the job he currently has only after one guy died and the next one almost did.

A joe biden type of guy. After your are around long enough, you finally get a few crumbs.
