So Palin is also in favor of bringing Ukraine and Georgia into the NATO fold? Big mistake, IMO.

Both have tremendous oil reserves, and a lot of cash. I'm sure they would both like to buy some used military equipment.

And drag us into war with Russia...

To answer the original topic ... heck, no. That's an entirely fair question to ask of a vice presidential candidate.

 

I agree.

Both McCain and Obama have favored bringing Ukraine and Georgia into NATO.

It is a very vague question. If I asked you 'Do you agree with the Obama Doctrine', would you understand the angle what I meant? Probably not. But if the idea that the 'Bush doctrine' is one that has kept our country safe from any more attacks since 9/11 is what he is referring to, then with that I would say that I agree. If it the economic policies of Bush and our current congress, then I would have to disagree. But I would want the 'doctrine' as the interviewer sees it defined.

No matter who says it, I think it's a mistake.

Then again, none of the three of you all are running for VP.

You don't know about the Semper Fi ticket?

It isn't a vague question. It is a very specific question, she just had no clue what the Bush Doctrine is.

While I do not think it was full out "gotcha" question, it was a "gotcha" question for me :lol:

 

I think we all knew what it was; but like most Americans, I did not know it had a title.

It isn't a vague question. It is a very specific question, she just had no clue what the Bush Doctrine is.

But I guarantee you she knew what Bush's philosophy about the subject of the question was. She might have been thrown off with the title of that philosophy used by Gibson, which is not always used by everyone.

So if she said what it was everyone can say that she and Sen. McCain will bring more of the same. How can she bring more of the same policy if she doesnt know what that policy is? The whole interview last night seemed like a disposition, looking for her to answer the questions to get the answer he wants. Where are these tough questions from the media for Sen. Obamma? Not wanting to whine, but it gets more obvious as we get closer to November.

 

"Jesus was a community activist, Pontius Pilate was a governor."...

Fair question. It's the underpinning of how Bush decided that we would deal with terrorist. Quite frankly, she looked like a Moose in the headlights.

I liked the way she fished Charlie hard for some help. I believe if Obama will concentrate on McCain, Palin will take care of herself.

I hadn't ever heard of it. There has never been anything entitled The Bush Doctrine. If Palin is supposed to follow the media's created terms to follow politics, then I guess she is at fault.
