Couric asked Palin: What other Supreme Court decisions do you disagree with?
"Well, let's see,'' Palin said. "There's --of course --in the great history of America there have been rulings, that's never going to be absolute consensus by every American. And there are -- those issues, again, like Roe v Wade where I believe are best held on a state level and addressed there. So you know -- going through the history of America, there would be others but...''
"Can you think of any?'' Couric asked.
"Well, I could think of -- of any again, that could be best dealt with on a more local level -- maybe I would take issue with,'' Palin said. "But you know, as mayor, and then as governor and even as a vice president, if I'm so privileged to serve, wouldn't be in a position of changing those things but in supporting the law of the land as it reads today.''

I am no guru of Supreme Court Rulings myself but really? We want her to be Vice President? Really? I don't really have a beef with any of her personal family issues but reading this type of thing makes me cringe.
So it should be an interesting (and entertaining) debate. Hope you all watch.

A: I personally believe that, U.S. Americans are unable to do so, because some… people out there in our nation that don’t have maps, and I believe that our education, like such, as in South Africa and Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should… our education over here in the U.S., should help the U.S., er, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future.., for our…
I was going to make a similar comment. She does NOT know how to answer a question. And I thought that it was great that she started out by saying "Can I call you Joe?" to Senator Biden. Great move, Sarah.
