On the money.
Yes, that was the Bush Doctrine as defined in that SCOTUS address that was so much criticized by Peggy Noonan and others as naive—thinking you could bring freedom to other people.
Well, it ain’t easy to bring freedom to folks who don’t want it. But what else do we have to offer as a counterweight to the Muslim doctrine of Submission. What, but freedom. It is, after all, rather a contagious idea.
Gibson was on strict orders from the Grinch.
He played the part well, trying to take Christmas away from one and all...
The NY media all have that explaining why they are so out of touch with "fly over" America.
Thank God I left that place! (as much as I enjoyed the 7 year experience too!!)
Oh, Gibson wasn’t uninformed. He knew exactly what he was doing. Throw a vague question, and use the answer to smear the answerer. Typical media crap, and why over 50% of the American People think the media is trying to hurt Palin.
And this is the supposed gotcha that had we Freepers in a near panic yesterday. But in the end it turns out that our gal was right and "Charlie"/MSM was wrong. So life is good again.
Can you please correct the gaffe in the title of the thread? It is, for some reason, driving me crazy!
Stand up, Chuck!
Charles Krauthammer educates charlie.
Charlie did irreparable harm to his Q-factor by doing this.
Gibson is the big loser in this whole ordeal. His moose is cooked! No more hiding behind some fraudulent facade of “I'm one of the old school honest journalists”.
Here’s what Sarah should have said:
Charlie, there are a lot of “doctrines” President Bush has espoused, and it seems to me that you in the media are the ones that label them “The Bush Doctrine”. Do you mean the one about terrorist states harboring terrorists being treated no differently than the terrorists? (this is the only “Bush Doctrine” I, Burr5, with a PoliSci degree and 10 hrs. a day of news absorbtion could remember)
But Charlie, (she could have continued), I do remember other definitions of that phrase after 9-11, so you might want to pick one.
Gibson: The BUSH DOCTRINE. What is your opinion of it?
Sarah: You know, Charlie, the American people understand that 90% of the Washington press corp are Democrats, so you might want to be a little less “gotcha”-oriented.
Gibson: Don’t you realize how completely unqualified you are?
Sarah: Excuse me?
Gibson: What makes you think you have any business being a heart-beat away from the presidency, what with that disabled baby of yours, or your daughter’s, and all?
Sarah:I hope you keep asking questions like this, Charlie, I really do. See that shotgun under the table? I can use it, unlike some elitist metropolitan pussies in the media I’m meeting these days.
Watched Gibson’s interview of Palin this evening (Friday) ... it was much more respectful in tone from the interview last night. ABC Evening News is perplexed ...this women is beyond their liberal ability to quantify ... they’re flummoxed.
Why do they keep this sh-t up? After all, we’re not all liberals, doncha know?
WRT Mr. Gibson
He appears to be far more up to date on sodomite ettiquite than on religious type prayers by our former leaders and past presidents( Lincoln, FDR, Ike, and JFK.

I hope this backfires on Gibson. She said “In what regard?” Could have been on any number of subjects. That was despicable.
Prior to this interview one heard talk from all quarters that it was good someone as informed and evenhanded as Gibson was going to conduct it. I myself never could distinguish him in any way from the rest of the MSM buttboys....I was right....he was as obnoxious and condescending as could be. I thought there was something inherently wrong with the way he handled the “Bush Doctrine” question, but Krauthammer illuminated it.
I couldn’t watch the whole thing, but in what I saw Gibson never sounded friendly, genial, never smiled, looked like he WASN’T enjoying himself....which leads me to believe the condescension wasn’t all his idea, that instead, he had orders that he should go after her that way.
