Other Than KO or Rachel, Who Would You Want To See Interview Palin?

[Yavin4]

I honestly don't know of anyone else. KO and Rachel would be great, but they'd be dismissed as too partisan.

[Hissyspit]

1. Bill Moyers?

[BrklynLiberal]

34. That was my first thought too....

He would be EXCELLENT!!!!

[WA98070]

2. Mike Malloy

[bookman]

44. In my dreams!

:)

That would be something.

[baldguy]

76. Mike Malloy at his most raging screaming liberal mode.

[tuvor]

3. Jon Stewart.

[Katha]

4. Along that line - Stephen Colbert.

[WA98070]

14. The sarcasm only works on smart people. They'd think he really likes them.

[anakie]

which, of course, is the joke

Colbert would do her over like a dinner.


Peace

[Lucy Goosey]

62. Yeah, that would be beautiful.

[trueblue2007]

5. How about DAN RATHER? How about Bill Clinton?

[MrSlayer]

6. Howard Stern.

Whatever you may think of him, he's great at interviewing. Of course, she'd never do it.

[Yavin4]

15. Stern Will Ask Her About Her Lesbian Affairs

That would be interesting.

[Aviation Pro]

7. Randi Rhodes....

...or Hillary Clinton.

[Webster Green]

8. Thom Hartman

}(

[WA98296]

11. Excellent choice!

[WA98070]

18. Usually too polite, but definitely would be able to hold their feet to the fire.

[bunkerbuster1]

59. If McCain had any balls, that's who he'd pick.

Hartmann always bends over backwards to treat his conservative guests with respect.

The only exception to that I've ever heard was when he interviewed Jerome Corsi. And Corsi richly deserved every vile, crazy thing Thom tossed at him.

(Even Thom later admitted one of the questions--involving James Carville and Mary Matalin, and the allegation that Corsi requested sexual services from the former as a precondition to working with the latter--was over the top, and he apologized immediately after.)

[JimGinPA]

9. Jon Stewart

He has a very humorous way of calling them on their bullshit.

[John Q. Citizen]

10. Dave Letterman

[tinrobot]

12. Charlie Rose

Non-partisan, but intellectual.

She's not intellectual, so she'd fizzle quickly.

[usregimechange]

13. stepocacolas

[Wetzelbill]

16. Chris Matthews isn't bad

Probably him. I know he's one of those guys you can like one minute and then he pisses you off the next, but when he's on his game he don't pull punches.

Leslie Stahl is good, I like her. People don't mention her much but she's solid.

[Yavin4]

19. Yeah, I'd Go with Chris

He hates phony pols. He doesn't care if you're left or right, just don't be phony.

[Submariner]

17. Helen Thomas

[smartvoter]

35. There you go. LOL that would be something. nt

[leftstreet]

20. Lewis Black

:)

[WorseBeforeBetter]

22. ...

[nc4bo]

21. Dan Rather. Specifically the Rather that spoke at a recent meeting w/journalists. nt

[jberryhill]

23. Torquemada

Because nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.

[BrklynLiberal]

36. Perfect choice considering her own "spiritual" leanings...

[jrandom421]

24. Mike Wallace in his prime

[SDJay]

25. In a Fantasy World, since

she'll never show her face near any of these folks anyway... Tim Russert. The ultimate live vetting machine. His destruction of David Duke was a thing of beauty, and he'd so the same thing with this BS-filled, pea-brained nutcase inside of a few minutes.

I miss Tim Russert. He'd be a voice of reason in response to all of this horrible bombardment of lies from the right. I know he's been on the R's side before, but he sure seemed to hate it when he thought folks were full of shit. He'd hammer her good, and she'd be back in the woods the next day for good.

[gauguin57]

26. ME!

And my first question would be: Are you CAPABLE of telling the truth EVER EVER EVER?

EVER?

[AzNick]

32. You beat me to it n/t

[Quantess]

27. Chris Matthews.

[Clio the Leo]

28. Barack Obama ;).....

on second thought, no need to sully his hands .... let Joe handle her.

(Suddenly having this mental image of Silvio and Pauley going off to deal with someone Tony didn't need to waste his time with.)

[Kool Kitty]

29. Amy Goodman.

[riverwalker]

30. Randi Rhodes

the fur would fly

[AzNick]

31. Myself.

Seriously, I'd go prepared and tell her "Listen, I'm not a reporter, I'm an elector, so here..."

And then I would fire questions after questions.

[democrat2thecore]

33. Bill Moyers - Thom Hartmann - Amy Goodman - Dan Rather -nt

[BrklynLiberal]

37. All at the same time!!!!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[nam78_two]

38. Bill Moyers

Maybe Colbert or Stewart ;)-sadly I am only half joking...

[sandnsea]

39. Ted Koppell, Phil Donahue, Whoopie

There are a lot of people out there who would do a reasonable job.

[Straight Shooter]

40. Josh Marshall, talkingpointsmemo.com n/t

[demobabe]

41. GOD

You got a lot of 'splainin to do, Ms. Palin...

[TygrBright]

42. Gwen Ifill. The contrast would be shattering. n/t

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

43. Bill Moyers or Thom Hartmann

Both are calm, reasonable and non-combative in tone and brilliantly incisive and informed in their approach to relevant issues. There would be nothing left except for a pair of smoking high heels and a small pile of moose shit.

Honestly, there are so many good choices all of whom would leave so much blood on the floor.

[quakerboy]

45. Michael Moore?

Hillary Clinton. Now that would be an interesting interview. I know she is not in any way press, but still.

[clear eye]

46. Al Gore?

[TheKentuckian]

47. Anyone and I mean anyone without a leash.

You know who would be best? Ron Paul. Paul would deep fry her and make even many Republicans say "No way, no how".

Check him out on Utube blistering McWorse. If it wasn't for the media and the backroom shit McCain would have been done after that debate (or any number of times, he is McGaffe).

[Duer 157099]

48. Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert

Everyone else, and I mean everyone, tends to let things slip by. Not these two.

[Dbdmjs1022]

49. 1. Stewart 2. Colbert 3. Matthews

[curious one]

50. Michael Moore.

[Cleita]

51. Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! and Helen Thomas.

[Ganja Ninja]

60. That would be my choice too.

She could ask quetions without fear of them crying sexism.

[Norrin Radd]

52. A werewolf.

[Raine]

53. Hillary ... I know she's not a journalist but

still I would love to see her take on Palin in a one on one and smack her down. :spank: :evilgrin:

[tishaLA]

54. Christiane Amanpour

Let her make Mooseolini dizzy with foreign policy questions.

[Lucky 13]

72. "Where there's war, there's Amanpour"

Not sure if this can be counted as a war... YET.

[mwooldri]

55. Jeremy Paxman or John Humphrys.

Sorry, but THESE guys are completely capable of cutting down ANYONE to size.

Jeremy Paxman asked the then Home Secretary the same question 12 times, getting evasive answers each time.

John Humphrys was censured for branding all politicians as liars. Also it is reported that Tony Blair hated being interviewed by him and when it was time for him to come on, he'd try to pick days when John Humprhys was off.

Yes, they're Brits but trust me, they'd tear both McPain and Obama a new one, though Obama would come off better, naturally. Sarah Palin vs these two? Ha! They'd have her for breakfast!

Mark.

[Awsi Dooger]

56. I wouldn't want Olbermann or Maddow

Bully types are classic wimps. Olbermann proved that during the spring when he ridiculed Hillary nightly then barely asked her anything of substance when she appeared on his show. She smiled right through him while he overdosed on thank yous.

I would trust someone like Tom Brokaw. He would be care free about image and hit all the valid points with a stern look and plenty of foundation credibility. Plus, an older reporter like that is not going to let a weak answer or non-answer slide. He'd go right back to it, only more forcefully.

[Ghost of Tom Joad]

57. Al Sharpton

[shadowknows69]

58. Walter fuckin Cronkite

Old uncle Walt still has the chops. Dan Rather would be nice too.

[OwnedByFerrets]

68. That is a nice choice...nt

[ladjf]

61. Any intelligent , unbiased reporter.

[DevonRex]

63. Josh Hartnett or Johnny Depp. That way I could turn the sound

down and just watch blissfully. :)

[NatBurner]

64. Campbell Brown

She's been on a roll lately

[OwnedByFerrets]

65. Thom Hartmann

[bdamomma]

66. I would love to see someone outside of the country to interview

her such as somebody from the BBC they could chew her alive.

[AngryAmish]

67. Billy Jack

[BklynChick]

69. Bill Maher

[scheming daemons]

70. Tweety (and I mean that sincerely)

He'll cut her in half.

[BklynChick]

he's been great lately.

[BklynChick]

74. he's been great lately.

[Dawgs]

71. Biden or Hillary.

:)

[bdamomma]

73. Laura Logan too.

[Enrique]

75. Patrick Fitzgerald n/t

[cynatnite]

77. Helen Thomas! n/t
