I'm sorry, what?

What follows is fascinating. Based on the clip below (which is all we have to go on since Governor Sarah Palin has been shielded from the media more than any politician since Ronald Reagan went senile in the summer of 1985) does it not seem like she has no idea what Charlie Gibson is talking about when he asks her about the Bush Doctrine? The notion that we have a fundamental right to preemptively strike any nation which poses a potential threat is central to the reasoning behind why we are currently at war in Iraq. This is a war Gov. Palin wholeheartedly supports. Yet, when questioned, she is clearly unable to determine what Gibson is referring to when he mentions the Bush Doctrine.

This is who John McCain would trust to lead us after he is gone. This is the best they could do. This is a bad joke.

Since you mentioned Reagan going senile, I recommend a short little read, "Reckoning with Reagan."
