In an interview Wednesday with CNN, the first lady remarked that it's fortunate that Republican presidential nominee John McCain has foreign policy experience himself.

Still, Mrs. Bush says she has a lot of confidence in Palin. She says the Alaska governor has a lot of good common sense, and the first lady adds that she is thrilled to have a chance to vote for Palin on the GOP ticket.

Only negative in the whole article is the beginning of the first sentence, which becomes the headline.

Coincidence?

I always thought Laura was very smart and had a lot of class. Palin doesn’t have a lot of foreign policy experience. So what?

You are an a##. She has been a class act for 8 years, something you will never be.

No coincidence. It's SOP.

Example:
John McCain says, "I love white horses."
Headline: "McCain: Black Horses Inferior to White Horses"

No, and that’s how it’s ALWAYS been, and Laura Bush should of known this and she should just STFU.

Who really cares about ‘foreign policy experience’ anyway. They asked Reagan about the Cold War and his response was the correct one, “very simple, we win, they lose”. And frankly, it doesn’t have to get more complicated than that. I’d rather have someone who had no ties and no obligations to any of those state department weasels or foreign leaders who undermine us at every turn. And frankly, that’s the left’s biggest concern about Palin. She doesn’t.

Be careful of trusting the Associated (with terrorists) Press to accurately report or contextualize what was said and meant.

The First Lady is correct, Palin doesn’t have a lot of foreign policy experience, no state governor does. But McCain does. That’s the message.

Ding Dong Obama doesn’t have foreign policy experience either but we don’t hear the APee reporting that, now do we?

Perhaps you’d best learn to identify the perfidy of the drive-by media before you post, lest you be termed a troll.

I can just see the guys in the CNN control room hootin’ and hollerin’ and pumping their fists when they got that on tape. Probably sent it off to the obama office down the hall. Oh, I forgot. The guys probably are on his staff already.

Exactly my thought. What is wrong with her? Good greif. Talk about eating your own.

Thanks Laura. Add more fuel to the MSM-Sarah Palin-trashing fire.

She does have class, but she has stuck her nose into a lot of things. I still admire how she carries herself, but she does tend to say a lot of iffy things.
