The following is an excised part of the Charlie Gibson/Sarah Palin ABC News interview:
Gibson: Governor Palin, how has being the Governor of Alaska prepared you to handle international diplomacy?
Palin: Charlie...Charlie, Charlie Charlie. Charlie. You can see all types of countries from Alaska; Russia, Canada, Montreal...
Gibson: With all due respect, Montreal isn't a country.
Palin: Exactly. When it comes to international diplomacy, you can't blink.
Gibson: Alright. So, what do you think of the current housing crisis?
Palin: If there is legitimate and enough intelligence that tells us that a strike is imminent against America...
Gibson: Housing crisis, Governor.
Palin: You know, Charlie; this is a nation that wants change from the Washington "politics-as-usual" malarkey. That's why I'm here; I'm a woman and you've never heard of me. That's change we can believe in.
Gibson: What do you think of the housing crisis?
Palin: It's a crisis, Charlie. Charlie, you know, Charlie...that we need to protect our shores against housing crisis. I would not second guess Israel, because they are our strongest ally and if there is a housing crisis in the Middle East, America has to exercise all options in order to stop the housing crises who are hell-bent on destroying America. America, Charlie. America.
Gibson began to cry and run a butter knife down his wrist.
