Gotcha question 

Any question that former Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin is too stupid to answer.
Gotcha questions asked by interviewers Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric:

Charles Gibson: "Do you agree with the Bush Doctrine?"

Sarah Palin: "In what respect Charlie?"

Charles Gibson: "What do you interpret it to be?"

Sarah Palin: "His world view."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Katie Couric: "When it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read...?"

Sarah Palin: "I've read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press..."

Katie Couric: "But what ones specifically? I'm curious."

Sarah Palin: "Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years."

Katie Couric: "Can you name any of them?"

Sarah Palin: "{Long speech about how Alaska isn't a foreign country}"... no shit.
