Ok so Biden has said some stupid things over the course of time as has Palin. Why is Palin considered "stupid"? Does anyone else see a double standard or is it just me?

"It's just that over such inconsequential drivel like what has been discussed and debated in this forum I can't really justify the effort, even the slight effort required for the documentation you seem to want."

Oooh, my favorite. When people are out of their league on a debate board, they talk about what a waste of time the board is. Ya know, the board they came to all on their own, the board they posted to...

A simple little thing about debate - dont expect someone to take your statements as fact. If you want a real debate, you need to back up those facts.

I'm glad you're a student. The women on this board come from a variety of backgrounds - real world experience, college degrees, advanced degrees. Telling us you're a college student does not automatically give you credibility. I'm a college professor (adjunct now that I'm a mommy). I guess I should throw that around more. By your apparent standard, everyone else on this board should just bow to my superior knowledge (LMAO)

You are never under any obligation to support any of the material you claim as fact.

that's a meaningless criticism. all interviews are edited - not just hers. i conduct and watch interviews as part of my occupation (not "the evil media") -- and they are b-o-r-i-n-g in their entirety. i fall asleep watching my own "riveting" interviews. to expect someone watching the news to hang on every word is not reasonable, so they edit.

it's not like they exited out her intelligent answers to make her look stupid.

I'd really love to see her on Meet The Press or Charley Rose that do very little editing.

all interviews are edited of course .. I get that, but yes things can be edited to show what the editor wants to be seen .... reading the entire transcript of Gibson's interview is proof of that.


and I'd love to see the two you mentioned as well
