Why the difference - Biden/Palin
| Thu, 10-02-2008 - 11:53am |
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?

Professor:
Why didn't you ask for a link to the unedited video?
<>
logic: you refer to an unedited version and you assert that it shows a more commedable (sic) performance - therefore you must have seen a commedable (sic) performance on an unedited version.
logic: the original post was referring to a taped interview - therefore "commedable (sic) performance on an unedited version" would imply you meant an unedited recording of the interview aka video.
question: if there is no link and there is no unedited recording, on what did you base your evaluation of her commendable performance?

>>Don't be offended but maybe you could have put forth some slight effort to clarify what the actual dispute concerned instead of jumping all into with accusations of "inwillingness to support claims".
Your darn tootin' I agree there is a double standard...if Biden did all that "folksy" talk and winking he'd be laughed at and called condescending...yet she's "charming" and "real".
As for the "stupid" things Biden has said vs. Palin.
The very first response to your post about Sarah's "commendable" performance asked for a link (from the2step). I didnt feel the need to ask again.
As far as your entire comment "Did you notice the editing job Couric pulled on the audience. How devious can you get? The unedited version shows a much more commedable performance by Sarah." I have no idea why it is a problem to only respond to the last portion. If anything, the previous two sentences are worse - and more opinionated - than the last. I take issue with the implication from your words that Katie Couric purposefully edited the videos to make Palin look bad.
And urosegirl is not my assistant - from everything I've seen here, she can handle herself without any help from anyone. Two people expressing similar opinions does not make a conspiracy.
Your posts have a lot of big words (think much of yourself?). If you concentrated more on expressing your ideas rather than trying to impress everyone, maybe you'd actually understand what was said to you, and your responses might be clearer.
You stated she was not stupid in

I disagree with you, but I'm pretty sure
