In India, Sarah Palin bashes President Obama
Moments after saying she wouldn't criticize Barack Obama abroad, Sarah Palin in India on Saturday said that if she were president there would have been "less dithering, more decisiveness" on Libya.

Pressed in a much tougher question-and-answer session than Palin has recently allowed herself to be subjected to during appearances in the U.S, the former Alaska governor told conference attendees at the India Today Conclave in New Delhi that Obama had not shown enough conviction in executing a strategy in Libya.

Asked how she would have handled the Libyan uprising had she been president, Palin told India Today Editor-in-Chief Aroon Purie: "I won’t criticize what foreign policy has been. But certainly there would have been more decisiveness.

14. Hey! C'mon now, give her her proper props. . .
she ate tandoori chicken once and this evening tasted curry -- that should make her an expert on subcontinent affairs.

8. There must be no criticism of the commander in chief in a time of war
Not now. Not while we have troops in the field.*






*Alright no, that's not what I believe, but it's what we were all told for 8 fucking years from 1/20/01-1/20/09.

9. She pulled a Dixie Chicks? Isn't that a no-no?
You're not supposed to criticize the President when you're on foreign soil during a time of war.

Or something.

10. Obviously the interviewer was unaware that she only spews soundbites.
No solutions, no substance, just criticism.

19. Politico "bashes" - reading the article it sounds more like they made fun of her
first by mentioning her "creative vocabulary"

then by asking her why she lost in 2008 (she blames McCain of course)

and then, and this is the clincher, they put her in front of a microphone
