seems like every candidate who ran this year knows the Bush doctrine except tough talking Palin

More proof she is a light wight given special treatment from the media

1. This directly contradict's John Fund's assertion on Maher's show...

that none of the candidates knew about the Bush doctrine during their respective debates when there were 8 or so Democratic and Republican hopefuls each.

2. Fuck Fund....he is a POS...I saw that scum,,,,he deserves some

:puke:

4. Fund is just practicing what Repubs have always done--bluff and hope it goes through

Not too many years ago, that practice worked.

Problem is, in this age of the internet, it's easy to verify the statement and publish and it expose these things as the lies that they are.

If I had a nickel for every lie exposed from McCain, Palin and their surrogates just in the past two weeks, I would be a very wealthy man.

8. Here's another thought on Charlie's questions.

He didn't expand on the Bush Doctrine for the debaters, he did it so the people in the audience and watching on TV would know what the hell he was asking about. It wasn't for the benefit of the debaters, but for the benefit of the American people are have been so dumbed-down. I think that was very obvious.

10. I was pretty pissed that SOMEONE didn't point out that if the Bush Doctrine was

'defined' before the question (which is now suspect) that it SURELY would have been to educate the people watching the debates, in case THEY weren't familiar, NOT because the candidates were unaware of the most important foreign-policy shift in modern US history.

AND it proves that Palin didn't watch the debates! She thinks she's 'qualified to be VP'???? Hell, she's not even qualified to VOTE for VP!

3. Oh that is brutal

:rofl:

5. The Obama Campaign has got to hire JED to do their ads. He

never misses the mark. He breaks it down so that feeble minds like mine can comprehend and so that you walk away thinking about the ISSUES! Woo hoo!

6. thats awesome

7. K&R for countering RW lies.

9. Suddenly no one is familiar with it

This is stunning. Suddenly, no pundits, no politicians and none of us "ordniary people" (GOD, I hate that expression) are familiar with the Bush Doctrine! Well hell, I imagine John Fund probably wrote whole columns about it, and I imagine every elected official debated it in public or private at one time or another. And this "ordinary person" knew exactly what it was -- AND HATED IT -- from the moment she heard about it. I remember thinking, "OMG, this preemptive war in Iraq isn't just a one-off thing -- it's an example of a new foreign policy DOCTRINE!!!"

For Palin not to know what it was is simply unforgivable. It's the lynchpin of Bush's foreign policy. The thought of her anywhere near the White House is terrifying.

11. K&R, rated 5-stars on YouTube AND dugg! n/t

12. Soundtrack - Depeche Mode "Policy of Truth" lyrics

You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put through

It's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth

Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilized
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only lied

It's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before
Never again
Is what you swore
The time before

Now you're standing there tongue tied
You'd better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell
You'll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truth

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before
