Couric: Can you tell me how Alaska has Relations with Soviets and what qualifies you as a diplomat with the Russians.

Palin: Well just recently is currently believed that the ocean levels rose and fell several times in the past. During extended cold periods, tremendous volumes of water are deposited on land in the form of ice and snow, which can cause a corresponding drop in sea level. The last "ice age" occurred around 12-15,000 years ago. During this period the shallow seas now separating Siberia from North America near the present day Bering Strait dropped about 300 feet and created a 1,000 mile wide grassland steppe, linking Asia and North America together with the "Bering Land Bridge". Across this vast steppe, plants and animals traveled in both directions, and humans entered the Americas. So that makes us all Russians because we all walked over that land together holding hands to North America and it makes us all Kin-folk in other words we are all related and one big family.

I have watched this woman and listened to her and even read her transcripts she says nothing period.

Quesitons were asked twice she avoided them that tells me that she is either dumber than dirt or will say anything she is told.

Let us all applaud Palin''s 8 yrs of tranformative legislation. Oh wait...she''s just a soccer mom who obviously doesnt know how to use birth control who got elected governor because the other candidates were a fisherman and a meth dealer. sskinner you really need to cut the *** and leave to commenting to people who actually know what they are talking about.

Let%u2019s praise him for his accomplishment but let him go back and get 8 years of transformative legislation under his belt and then he can come back. (last bit to 5 of 5)

sskinner9, you really think Obama could not about write a book on any of the questions that Palin was asked and then tried to fake through. Obama has spent his life in public policy where Palin was a small town mayer and gov of a state that has had no crisis while she was in office - oh, other then a budget surplus that she then had her Dept of Revenue write checks to the citizens of Alaska.

But really, sskinner9, for you to claim there is a media bias. Please. Wake up sskinner9. There are other places to get your news then Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.
