| Palin can't name a Supreme Court case |
 |
Wow, I'm speechless. CBS News anchor Katie
Couric asked Joe Biden and Sarah Palin some
"Vice Presidential Questions." This
installment tackles Roe v. Wade and Supreme
Court decisions.
If you think this woman should be allowed
anywhere near the White House you need to get
help.
==On Roe==
"Immediately after saying what a terrible
decision Roe was, Palin got a follow-up
question from Couric about whether she
believes there's a constitutional 'right to
privacy'.
"And Palin said, yes.
"Now, narrowly speaking, you can believe in a
constitutional right to privacy and also
oppose Roe. But the right to privacy, as
Couric says in the interview, is one of the
cornerstones of Roe. And in the public debate
yes or no on the right to privacy is
something pretty close to a proxy for your
position on abortion rights."
The bottom line is that among conservatives
opposition to a constitutional 'right to
privacy' is a straight-up litmus test issue.
Palin not only didn't have the right answer
on the right to privacy. It was pretty clear
she'd never even heard of it before."

==On other decisions==
Couric: "What other Supreme Court decisions
do you disagree with?"
Palin: "Of course, in the great history of
America there have been rulings that there's
never going to be absolute consensus by every
American, 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"
Couric: "Can you think of any?"
Palin: "Well, I would think of any, again,
that could best be dealt with on a more local
level [that] maybe I would take issue with,
but...you know, as a mayor, and then as a
governor, and even as a vice president, if
I'm so privileged to serve, [I] wouldn't be
in a position of changing those things, but
in supporting the law of the land as it reads
today."
