And Now, More DXM: Palin Chronicles

Deus Ex Malcontent with the coverage on the MILF who could FUBAR the USA if the stupid folks of the nation make it to the polling booth. Tonight a collection I call "Sarah Palin Is An Incompident Moron - The Interview, In Three Parts":

1: The K.O.

Not only did Charlie Gibson not go easy on Sarah Palin in the first segment of his exclusive interview, he didn't let her get away with even an inch of deflection (not that she didn't try over and over again).

So there you have it: The woman really is the next George W. Bush, only more clueless -- as if such a thing were possible. At least all the men in love with her will be happy to see her not wearing any clothes.

We'll see how the rest of the interview is carried out, but she's already hung herself pretty firmly.

2: Epic FAIL

I once again stand corrected.She's not George Bush, because even George Bush knows what the hell the Bush Doctrine is.

3: Mushroom Jazzed

I could very easily allow the video of Sarah Palin utterly botching the test question Charlie Gibson hit her with on the Bush Doctrine to stand as the final word on tonight's interview.

But let's not forget that she did actually mention that if Georgia becomes part of NATO and Russia attacks it, we may have to go to war with Russia.

Let me repeat that: Sarah Palin, the fucking hockey mom, just suggested the possibility of going to war with Russia.

Ilan Goldenberg, the policy director of the National Security Network put it bluntly:

"No sane American or European leader would ever, ever, ever give an answer like that. You do not get into hypotheticals about nuclear war. You just don't. Palin references the Cold War. The only reason the Cold War stayed cold is because our leaders understood the stakes of getting things wrong and saying things that could lead to catastrophic nuclear war. During the Cuban Missile Crisis every word, every public statement, and any message that the Kennedy administration sent to the Soviets was checked, double checked, and triple checked to make sure it was sending precisely the right signal. This is what you are forced to do when you have thousands of nuclear weapons and so does your opponent. The stakes are simply too high. And yet there is a nominee for the vice presidency of the United States who may one day have her hand on the button and she is casually talking about potential catastrophic nuclear war."

Do yourself a favor and just keep comparing her "performance" tonight to this memorable clip. It'll either make you feel infinitely better or infinitely worse -- I'm not quite sure which.
