In her interview with Katie Couric Sarah Palin essentially called Henry Kissinger naive and also proved that she just hasn't done her homework.
Couric: You met yesterday with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who is for direct diplomacy with both Iran and Syria. Do you believe the U.S. should negotiate with leaders like President Assad and Ahmadinejad?
Palin: I think, with Ahmadinejad, personally, he is not one to negotiate with. You can't just sit down with him with no preconditions being met. Barack Obama is so off-base in his proclamation that he would meet with some of these leaders around our world who would seek to destroy America and that, and without preconditions being met. That's beyond naïve. And it's beyond bad judgment.
Couric: Are you saying Henry Kissinger ...
Palin: It's dangerous.
Couric: ... is naïve for supporting that?
Palin: I've never heard Henry Kissinger say, "Yeah, I'll meet with these leaders without preconditions being met." Diplomacy is about doing a lot of background work first and shoring up allies and positions and figuring out what sanctions perhaps could be implemented if things weren't gonna go right. That's part of diplomacy.
Actually. That's exactly Henry Kissinger's position. And Couric even went ahead and confirmed it with Kissinger after the interview. Here is what Kissinger said just last week at a forum of five secretaries of state.
"I'm in favor of negotiating with Iran. And one -- (unintelligible) -- of negotiation is to put before Iran our vision of a Middle East -- of a stable Middle East and our notion of nuclear proliferation at a high enough level so that they have to study it."
It's not only Kissinger's position. It is James Baker and Colin Powell's position as well. Here is what Powell said at the event.
Powell: "we should start to talk to them. Don't wait for a letter coming from them. Start discussion. We've been talking to them up through 2003." Asked whether we should "take the initiative?" Powell responded, "Yeah. We shouldn't we? What are we afraid of? We did."
But who cares what Kissinger, Powell and Baker think. Sarah Palin is running the country now...

Just as North Vietnam had reached the conclusion that all was hopeless and they were on the verge of surrenderi
But yes, Kissinger IS naive and often wrong. He just, as Obama does, says things in such a convincing way that few notice how wrong he is!
And your bad guy argument is simplistic and specious. Torture, domestic spying, lying us into a war, ignoring Habeous Corpus, FEMA failures.
Hmmmmmm.

Of course, she's not taking care of her newborn now, but that doesn't matter. Isn't she cute?
What arrogance.
Good Grief. America elects this ditz and the old man team, we're cooked.
Palin said that she was against America meeting with Ahmadineja
Mr. Golden then writes "Actually. That's exactly Henry Kissinger'
Palin never said she opposes negotiatin
Therefore, despite the headline to this article, Palin did not call Kissinger (or his positions) naive.
There are plenty of things to complain of when it comes to Palin. You don't have to make stuff up. It just hurts your own credibilit
"But I do not believe that we can make conditions for the opening of negotiatio
Kissinger does NOT say that heads of state should meet without preconditi
But I am sure you don't care. Reality and truth, as clearly evidenced by the feverish spreading of lies and rumors on this website, don't count among the true believers.
"But I do not believe that we can make conditions for the opening of negotiatio
No conditions for the opening of negotiatio
His preconditi
"We ought, however, to be very clear about the content of negotiatio
From that standpoint he had already said:
"But I do not believe that we can make conditions for the opening of negotiatio
In this manner you're not advancing any of the other actions of who it is you're meeting with -- all adversary meetings of any kind are along these lines, be it a divorce, a law suit or whatever and it's especially true in foreign affairs.
On another note I think your readers might be interested in this, which has only minor implicatio

NAIVE?????
The only reason that I can figure that McCain chosen this woman is that he knows he will lost, the fix is in, and this is his way of giving the puppet masters the finger. Or maybe just to distract us. Or to insure his defeat in case the e-vote machines are banned? I dunno.
