Palin knocks one out of the park. Palin 3, Biden 0.

Palin Casts herself as a Federalist, makes no sense in interview

Asked what other Supreme Court decisions she disagrees with, Alaska's governor couldn't name any.

"Well, let's see. There's, of course, in the great history of America rulings there have been rulings, that's never going to be absolute consensus by every American," Palin said. "And there are, those issues, again, like Roe v. Wade where I believe are best held on a state level and addressed there. So you know, going through the history of America, there would be others but ...."

Asked again to name a decision she disagreed with, Palin replied: "Well, I could think of, of any again, that could be best dealt with on a more local level. Maybe I would take issue with. But you know, as mayor, and then as governor and even as a vice president, if I'm so privileged to serve, wouldn't be in a position of changing those things but in supporting the law of the land as it reads today."

huh? So if the Law of the Land is Roe vs Wade, does that mean she is supporting it? By that last sentence, obviously that's what she's saying.

I think...

Somehow I don't think she looks old enough to be a federalist in the well-known use of the word, people who wanted to ratify the Constituion creating the United States, unless it has some to do with Global Federalism which always sounded to me like One World Order stuff.

Every time I read one of these transcripts I get more disturbed. I understand that she doesn't have a law degree but someone running for VP should at least know a few Supreme Court rulings so that she sounds somewhat educated. I am guessing she is now being taught those too.
