CBS: More Palin Footage Coming

There is some buzz stirring among the politically obsessed that CBS News is sitting on embarrassing segments from its interview with Gov. Sarah Palin and that the station would trot out those segments sometime this week.

The Washington Post's media reporter Howard Kurtz stoked the flames this morning when the reported in his Media Notes column:

"And the worst may be yet to come for Palin; sources say CBS has two more responses on tape that will likely prove embarrassing."

In the end, it seems, there are no saved tapes. A spokesperson for CBS, says that the station has released all of the footage from last week's interview -- in which Palin provided increasingly unsteady answers to a series of foreign policy and economic questions.

The source clarified that what Kurtz was referring to is part of the Vice Presidential Questions series with Palin and Joseph Biden which was always scheduled to air in the days before the vice presidential debate.

"The series is based on the Presidential Questions series," the source says, "in which Couric asks the candidates the same set of questions on wide range of topics from policy to character to leadership."

In addition, CBS has some new Palin content coming this evening. The cameras will be following the Alaska Governor and John McCain on the campaign trail in Ohio Monday.

It's sickening having to watch John McCain defend her...with lies I might add. Seriously, this is not a laughing matter we the people deserve to know what she has to say.

[ReportThis]

The neocons and reich wingers will spin Palin 'til Judgment Day. Our best response is to keep laughing.

[unscum]

Will Sara Palin use a microphone in here ear during the vp debate? Bush used a microphone during the Bush/Kerry debate four years ago. I can see the McCain campaign doing something like this. Also, Palin has a lot more hair than Bush to hide any microphone.

[SunshineDaydream]

if her hair is down you know something is up.

[TrueIndy08]

I agree... I expect to see her famous beehive the night of the debate... if not, I will most definitely think something is going on....

[tregibbs]

If Palin get to have an earpiece then so should Biden, otherwise he should refuse to debate. If Palin is a worthy candidate, she shouldn't need an earpiece.

[LemonMeringue]

Biden would not need an earpiece because he's be the one TALKING INTO the earpiece!

Well, at least if they don't quiz him too closely about pre WWII history.

AND... It's a WRAP..!!

McCain to Replace Palin, With Tina Fey

This is no joke. We look at her interviews and snicker and are amazed. But there are people who will actually go to the polls and pull the lever for this ticket. If Sen. McCain is being truthful about her readiness (he CAN'T be!!!) then I question his judgment. If he just thought that a woman would draw the Hillary voters (get real, Buddy!) then it's even worse. He will obviously stop at nothing to win this election. Maverick? I don't think so. . .I have another name for him but they wouldn't publish this if I used it.

[LemonMeringue]

They admire her "freshness." God save us from the dumb people!

[stayinsouth1981]

I almost tossed a cookie when i read that.. "FRESH" LMAO

[Cali4BHO]

"Freshness"!! What is she a VP candidate or a panty liner?

[TheEx]

Okay, I dont want to seem paranoid, BUT.

Is she suddenly wearing her hair down? Over her ears???? So she can hide a wire for the debate Thursday??????

As I say I dont mean to seem paranoid, but these people have driven me to it.

[PS4OBAMA]

Half the time I'm wondering if Mccain isn't wearing one with Chenney and Libermann on the other end. Between is disgusting sarcasm and her voice that would crack crystal....I almost would rather read the transcripts. I have never been so involved in a presidential race and everytime I hear McCain or Palin talk - I just scream at the TV.....it really makes me angry.....I must need therapy....(kidding)

[JustSpeakingMyPeace]

This is Saturday Night Live's best skit yet...they look so much like the real f*cktards I was almost fooled!!! ROFLMAO

[Tatiana]

She's a nightmare, please people-do not vote GOP this year!
I can't take it anymore! The Repug's have to go!

[whipkitty]

Give her some red lipstick and I swear she's Peg Bundy.

[LemonMeringue]

I love Peg Bundy! Palin is not nearly as charming.

[harriscrl3]

I guess its OK to say outloud that you are NOT meeting with the leader of Spain. I guess its OK to saber rattle against Russia saying we are all Georgians and we will be there to protect Georgia of course Russia wont figure that out.

McCain is a bonafide IDIOT. We may be trading one villiage idiot fo the next.

[eden4barack08]

And it's ok to sing "bomb bomb Iran".

[afroangel]

will she show up on thursday?

[BIG JOHN]

AMERICA NEEDS TO WAKE THE HELL UP. IF THEY VOTE THIS TICKET IN OFFICE IT WONT BE GOOD. LET JUST HOPE BIDEN WILL CLEAN HER CLOCK THEN WE CAN SAY GOOD NIGHT SARAH.

[ewed]

Why is it ok to say out loud that you would attack terrorists inside another country if you are at a pizza place, but not as a matter of policy. Why is it a gotcha statement if you are answering a question off the cuff, without knowing the context? It doesn' t make sense to me.

[mma0930]

I had to go throw up after watching the clip of McCain and Palin with Katie Couric. He has lost
any and all respect for all Americans and especially women. She is an absolute embarassment
to all women across America. She is dumber than a door nail........and he talks about exciting
the party!!
I never thought America was so stupid but apparently they are. What is the deal with her?
I sure she would make a swell neighbor who would bake some moose brownies for
your pregnant underage unwed daughter...........but vp?
I fell like I'm in the twilight zone........

[rj610]

good point but you seem to forget that her 17 y/o daughter is going to have her baby and not have an abortion. the religious right (who used to disdain teenage pregnancy----it's the parent's fault you know) have now embraced it. she and the eff'n redneck are getting married and doing the right thing so sarah by association is also a saint because she raised her child correctly. who cares that she's dumber than dirt!!!
