Bear in mind over 100 Canadians have died in Afghanistan, because Bush took the American army into Iraq… and the American army needed help in Afghanistan.
Not that Fox News is widely renowned for their objectivity, but they recently b*tch slapped their neighbors to the north by calling them stupid, effeminate, cowardly, and lazy - among other adjectives. Just watch it for yourself:
Update: the source of the leak is a hoax, but the fact remains: for the GOP to send up John McCain and Sarah Palin to the batter’s box after George Bush’s disastrous tenure shows how reckless the POW (Party of War) is. I do not see how America’s shifting demographics will allow for the GOP to remain a viable party…
Original post:
Remember: the GOP is the Party of War… so if their second in command does not know the basics, that is a dangerous thing. From Martin Eisenstadt, the leak who told FOX that Palin was clueless on geography, let alone geo-politics:
So yes, to be clear, last week I was the one who leaked those things to a producer at Fox News who works with Cameron. Carl and his producers are good guys, and I don’t want them to have to worry about protecting their sources (and going through the wringer ala Judith Miller or Matt Cooper) on something like this.
As you know, I was one of the foreign policy advisers on the McCain campaign who worked with Randy Scheunemann to help prep Sarah on her debate with Joe Biden. Did we outright give her a geography quiz when we started the prep? No, of course not. But yes, in the context of the prep, it slowly became apparent that her grasp of basic geo-political knowledge had major gaps. Could she have passed a multiple choice test about South Africa or NAFTA. Probably. But it was clear that she simply didn’t have the ease of knowledge that we come to expect from a major party political candidate. Other slights came up, too: Not knowing the difference between Hezbollah and Hamas. Or the difference between the Shiites and Suni. Or when it came to international terrorist organizations, knowing that the IRA was in Northern Ireland, and ETA in Spain.
Read more. The point is, we saw that happens when someone runs the country without knowing that Iraq has Sunnis and Shia and they don’t get along. I don’t think we can afford to have more of these types of people in charge… yet both John McCain and Sarah Palin did not seem to know this very basic fact.
Why Gibbs is WH Press Secretary: he’ll make FOX his bitch:
And where he totally sends Hannity packing:
You gotta give the Republicans credit for not going down without a fight. They are basically attaching Obama now for having the EXACT position as John McCain, look:
WTF?
It’s the third sign of the Apocalypse. Everything I’ve been conditioned to believe is crashing down around me. That’s right, folks: FOX News has said something against the Republican presidential candidate. FOX’s Neil Cavuto even calls Obama, “Senator Straight-Talk.” Cavuto’s problem with McCain is his inconsistency and shifting positions (didn’t they used to call that “flip-flopping?”). Check it out - you have to see it to believe it:
Yes, you will get clobbered for answering questions wrong. And yes, you will get clobbered for just NOT answering questions. But it is not the media’s job to make things easy for politicians. The debate is the forum where you talk about your ticket and rail on Obama. Leave it to FOX News to allow her the soapbox. And if I hear the words “media elite,” or “Washington elite,” again, I swear…
Liberal bias in the media, my butt (FOX News strikes again):
