ABC NEWS- Palin Interview Part II

Alright I think I missed some of the second part of Gibson's interview of Sarah Palin. I caught the part on climate change but missed the energy part. So I'll comment on what I saw.

She obviously diverted from what she had said in the past. She wouldn't commit either way if climate change is being caused by man or by natural cycles. She would only say that it's a bit of both, which, again, is totally different from what she has said in the past. Here she clearly states that climate change cannot be attributed to humans. She's obviously lying and totally inconsistent.

I missed the part where she was talking about the natural gas pipeline so I won't be able to comment on that. I probably would have given her the grade of D had Gibson pushed a little bit more on her flip-flop but their editing seemed to cut the interview to a different portion. Plus she said she favors drilling in ANWR and so do I. So far she hasn't flipped on that.

Again, I don't think much more can be asked of Charlie. Could he push her more on her total flip-flip on climate change? Sure he could have. But we can also let her own deceptions do the talking. She's on record stating climate change isn't man made and then today says that she's never said that before. I know many on the left will say that Gibson gave a fluff interview. I'm going to have to disagree so far. I think he could have been more forceful with lies but then he runs into luney O'Reilly territory. So far I'm okay with his interviews. Not overly impressed but okay.
