The Female George Bush Doesn't Know Anything About George Bush

Well, this sort of puts a kink in my naming the Governor of Alaska, The Female George Bush. Turns out she doesn't know what "The Bush Doctrine" is. You know, the whole "preemptive strike" thingy.
GIBSON: Do you agree with the Bush Doctrine?

PALIN: In what respect, Charlie?

GIBSON: Bush -- What do you interpret it to be?

PALIN: His worldview?

GIBSON: Well, the Bush Doctrine, [unintelligible] September 2002, before the Iraq war.

PALIN: I believe that what President Bush has attempted to do is rid this world of Islamic extremism, terrorists who are hellbent on destroying our nation. There have been blunders along the way, though...

GIBSON: The Bush Doctrine, as I understand it, is that we have the right of anticipatory self-defense, that we have the right to a pre-emptive strike against any other country that we think is going to attack us. Do you agree with that?

PALIN: Charlie, if there is legitimate and enough intelligence that tells us that a strike is imminent against the American people, we have every right to defend our country.

My God. What a fucking moron. She actually had to have the Bush Docterine explained to her. She can kill, skin and turn a moose into a lamp, though.
