Maybe Kaite should learn to be a journalist again. Katie Couric is so irrelevant.

Now come on, y’all. What Couric means, as anyone who ever actually watched her knows, is that she simply means that Palin ought to learn how to govern as a liberal. Duh.

I don’t know how else you can attack Palin without coming down even harder on people like Joe Biden, whose legislative accomplishments read like an economic shop of horrors.

And what does Katie know about “governing”?

What are Katie Courics qualifications to judge anyone other than another fluff piece of network news window dressing? Her ratings tell us she isn’t even that good at that endeavor.

2Hotel9. If you want to critisize Katie’s opinion go for it.
IMO, bashing Couric is not the way to go.

Maybe Katie Couric should take over as the new host of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire

And yet you can not produce any credential that qualifies her to criticize Palin’s knowledge on “governing”. Exactly how long did Katie serve on a city council, as a Mayor or Governor? Lay it on us. We have the facts that Katie has gutted CBS News’ ratings, that ain’t bashing.

And to make it clear, Katie is not paid for her “opinion”, she is paid to read what is written for her. Period. She does not have the mental capacity to offer her “opinions” for public consumption. That is why she is a deadender on CBS Evening News.

Bat One. Believe it.
And I realy appreciate this:

In deference to you, will try not to be so gentle next time, however.

As for Katie Couric, I think she is a dumb bimbo who couldn’t govern Central Park. Deal with it.

di butler. I am neither a fan, nor enamored with Couric.
Nothing for me to deal with.

2Hotel9, Sorry, seeing the cat and we have a cat, a female cat is what made me thinks you were a feisty lady. I apologize for the gender slip. I do enjoy your comments and we do think along the same political lines.

Perhaps you would like to provide us with a resume’ of Katie’s credentials as an expert on “governing”?

Hit her hard fellas. How dare she talk about a new conservative icon.

Women like ellinas always toddle to the defense of media whores like Katie, it is all they have. Notice all the hate-filled vitriol she spewed on Palin and McC’s and Thompson’s wives. Couric has no authority to question anyone’s knowledge about anything. She is a dim bulb, a chattering parrot with the mental capacity of a mentally under developed 5th grader.

Please link to any post of mine where I spewed hate-filled vitriol on Palin and McC’s and Thompson’s wives.
If you cannot it is because you are a dim bulb, a chattering parrot with the mental capacity of a mentally under developed 5th grader.
Understand one thing. I am not defending Couric’s opinion, but rather disagreing with your method of defending Palin.
Couric’s, and anyones opinion is fair game. However, the rest reminds me the childish put down: “My dad’s gun is bigger than your dad’s gun.”

2Hotel9,
You go girl!!!! The interview Katie had with Pain was a set up and her writers wrote in those gotchya questions and let Palin melt down without going on like a good interviewer would have.

Palin is a leader in her own right and has a approval rating in Alaska like no others have had in the past. She came up from the bottom as first a concerned mother at the PTA meetings and then saw she might make a difference in city hall. Seeing wrong doings in state politics and decided to call them on the carpet and run for stae office where she came up short. She by then had a reputation for getting things down and getting people to listen to her, she was appointed to a energy commission and held that post till she ran against her own party’s incumbent Governor and won. The people of Alaska are no dummies, but have been played in the past as not knowing what was going on. When watchdog Sarah Palin attacked the corrupt status quot, this ignited the people and they all supported her fortitude for doing so.

Katie is a high paid liberal mouth and the libs fawn all over her perky false face and takes what ever she says as gospel. The liberal women or feminist groups are all jealous of the resume Palin brings to the table and want to eat her alive. They feel threatened by her successes in the past and feel she might bring down most of what they stand for politically (pro-choice, gay rights/marriage, attacking the Institution of the American Family).

Governor Palin needs to collect her thoughts and carefully align herself to run for the Presidency in 2012.

Bat One. Your opinion would carry a good deal more weight if there was any record of you having similarly objected to the hate-spew of fellow rightie lemmings during Mr. Clinton’s and Mr Bush’s presidency.
I for one, did not see it. Your ever so gentle way of scolding me,is laughable at best.

Reading a teleprompter makes you an expert on nothing.

I agree, but tell that to our Pres Elect and those who voted for him.

I will criticize her for sitting there with her head bobbing and smiling while Biden explains the way FDR handled his televised presidential address in ‘29. I still want to know why she didn’t correct him, or at least ask for him to explain why he was saying this, if she is so intelligent?

Or has any objectivity. She seemed to ask questions to Sarah, and badger her about the answers.

I would have been dumbfounded at some of them too.

I am still waiting for the politician that will look straight in the face of the reporter and say, “That was the stupidest question that I have ever heard.”

The closest that I have seen was this video by Newt Gingrich.

Once upon a time Katie Couric was a journalist? Surely you jest.
