I feel sorry for the Cutsie Katie Couric having to interview McCain & Palin. Her blatant animosity makes it clear that she would rather enjoying tea & cookies with Obama. But maybe she feels like it is her patriotic duty to help Obama by using "gotcha journalism" to attempt to sabotage Palin.

COURIC, TO PALIN: Over the weekend, Governor Palin, you said the U.S. should absolutely launch cross-border attacks from Afghanistan into Pakistan to, quote, "stop the terrorists from coming any further in." Now, that's almost the exact position Barack Obama has taken and that you, Senator McCain, have criticized as something you do not say out loud. So, Governor Palin, are you two on the same page on this?

SARAH PALIN: We had a great discussion with President Zardari as we talked about what it is that America can and should be doing together to make sure that the terrorists do not cross borders and do not ultimately put themselves in a position of attacking America again or her allies. And we will do what we have to do to secure the United States of America and her allies.

COURIC: Is that something you shouldn't say out loud, Senator McCain?

JOHN MCCAIN: Of course not. But, look, I understand this day and age, "gotcha" journalism. [to Palin] Is that a pizza place? In a conversation with someone who you didn't hear the question very well, you don't know the context of the conversation, grab a phrase. Governor Palin and I agree that you don't announce that you're going to attack another country-

COURIC TO PALIN: Are you sorry you said it Governor?

McCAIN: Wait a minute. Before you say, "is she sorry she said it," this was a "gotcha" soundbite that, look she in a conversation-


Couric shows no desire to hear Palin's answers...she just hammers her with lame questions like, "Are you sorry you said that Governor?" Maybe Couric thinks she will only be taken seriously if she asks ridiculous questions while using her "tough face" but I think she can leave the vampire fangs at home and look for blood somewhere else.

"GIVE PALIN A CHANCE"
I really cannot keep my emotions intact anymore.I watched Katie Couric come up thru the ranks what fresh face she was when she started out. Now I see a woman so frumpy and frustrated with unhappiness. And you young woman I don't know who you are or not much about you but I learned years ago you don't put out other peoples light to make yours shine brighter! take it for what it is worth. But I know this little lady Sara has heart and will use it to show all of you what a real woman is made of. I also raised 6 children and hunted with them and my husband and untill you do this to me your neither a woman nor a mom. But this woman shows me some new sunshine for us all including you Miss Kathleen you could use a little. Well good day to you thanks for allowing me to express myself us old ladies need to get it out sometimes. SARA SHOW EM GIRL Your friend Nancy

I think Biden actually knows less...
If the media was following up on every mis-step Biden has made on camera and running these stories into the ground. It would become apparent that Sarah rational answers are actually less dangerous for the country than Bidens. I think her interviews actually resonate with the America. After all in her acceptance speach she told us as much. She is not doing this to win the good grace of the media. She wants to help lead this country in the right direction.

Why so threatened Faith?
So you don't think Palin should have to endure querstions from "Cutsie" Couric, eh?

First of all - you people need to stop trying to protect little Miss Palin and her obvious inability to give a good answer to what sdhould be rather easy questions. She is up for what is potentially the hardest job on the planet.

I know you are disspointed and frustrated by her recent, dismal failures. But don't blame Ms. Couric for simply doing her job.

Second - your "Cutsie" comment is blatantly sexist. If Katie Couric is "Cutsie" then Sarah Palin is outright ADORABLE the way she answers important world questions like a half-witted pageant queen.

And frankly - you are the last person to be calling anyone "Cutsie", babe.

You dress far to young for your age and your layers of make-up are whoreishly applied.

You look like Debbie Gibsons less attractive older sister - and you sound about as smart as a box of sh*t.

Keep quite and let the proffessionals like Katie Couric do their job vetting this trainwreck of a VP.

Thanks doll.

Will the ole man be at her debate?
John McCain looks pretty dismal having to go on TV to answer questions for Palin. Oh, I know - poor Palin is under such "Attack" by the media - for basically wanting to ask her simple questions.

He looks like an old man trying to get his daughter into a college she is way too stupid to attend.

I cannot wait for you people to lose the election.

Palin is not 'adorable', she is 'hot'. Now, take it back!

I have been less than impressed with her interviews. I will hold my judgement until the debate. I'm not concerned that she doesn't nuance her words to death like most politicians but she is obviously completely so stressed out during the interviews that she can't think. Not good.

Pity Party
Caribou Barbie has worn out her "pity" factor.

Her well documented lies (thanks to the outstanding documentation on Andrew Sullivan's blog) are staggering.

It's amazing how gullible the Far Right can be: they will fall for anyone who stands up and says the right words ("Christian!" "Abortion!").

Mercifully, this is all about to end as President-elect Obama wipes the electoral map clean.

Hey bubba, why doesn't the professional Cutsie One give the same softball questions to Palin and McCain that she gives to the democrats?

Has "cutsie" ever harassed Barry about his smoking, or his previous use of pot and snorting cocaine (read his book)? WHERE ARE THE MEDICAL RECORDS? Did he ever have an addiction? Did he ever seek rehab? How do we kow? WE NEED TO SEE THE RECORDS, and not just a one-page, undated summary from his doctor. Did Barry break the law when he bought those illegal drugs? Should we even consider electing a drug-using, lawbreaking cigarette smoker for the "potentially hardest job in the world." What will Barry "turn to" when he is faced with the pressures of being commander-in-chief? What if he falls off the wagon? Will he return to his faith (oh - racist liberation theology - gee, I hope not.)Isn't Barry chewing Nicorette gum now. Has he ever SMOKED CIGARETTES IN FRONT OF HIS DAUGHTERS. What is their health like with the possibility of second-hand smoke around them? What kind of a father could ever do that? And not to mention, if Barry wants us to be our "brother's keeper," then why is HIS brother still living in a freaking hut? Where's the love man ??

Of course, the Cutsie could instead choose to talk to Barry about his Executive experience...oopps..forgot!...he ain't got none.

Why dont you lay off the personal attacks Kal and stick with the issues. Or else we'll demand that you give us a link to your facebook showing you sitting in your underwear in your parents basement surfing the net ogling pictures of Katie Couric.

And yes, Katie is a professional...news reader!
