I don't know, you might not like her answers but at least they're all different. Miliband interview sounds like the needle's stuck in the groove.

It IS a doctored tape done by Newsthump, a satirical UK news site based on the format of the BBC site

Either you've been taken in or your humour is too subtle for me. For the record, it is a REAL interview that actually happened as you see on film. Newsthump are just milking it for comic value after the fact, but it's the real thing, freaky though that may seem. If not, then it's not just naive old me but the whole British media establishment that's been taken for a ride:

he felt ashamed at the "professional discourtesy" in being used as a "recording device for a scripted soundbite"

= modern political journalism.
How Palin has avoided this thread so far is a mystery.

Palin posting here might be the ultimate :hayek: .

Or did you mean being mentioned in the thread? Try the second post.
