I believe that US Americans...

When I saw this the other day, I was thinking about what I might say in her place. Nothing that stupid, but I'd have a hard time saying anything that might sound inspirational.

I'd say something like: They can't find the US on the map simply because they don't care. They don't see the point of learning it. In their lives, they don't need to know, and they have no curiosity about it.

lol.

I was trying to be nice (for once--practicing my diplomacy) so I left this off earlier, but I was thinking: youse guys could surely find something to stick in her mouth so you didn't have to have a conversation with her.

US Americans...

When you ask for directions with a map, people are willing to help you.

When you ask for directions with a globe....That's a whole 'nother story.

I know what you mean, Glatt. A question like that on the fly? Saying things like you said, like i might say, is certainly not what they're looking for. It's a strange question, and one hard to find a diplomatic answer for.

I saw a clip of some morning show where they asked her a question, might have been about global warming, where she was prepared with an answer, but I thought it was cool they were helping her out of her embarrassment. She said on the show how hard it was to be on TV after saying something so stupid that became a big news item. So, I give her credit for that.

It was a bad question, but you could see her coaching coming out. You don't have to know anything but hit a few buzz words and you'll win. I'm just really anti-pageant. I don't see any redeeming values in the things.

what?

if you don't HAVE a map, how can you be expected to read it? And if the South Africans and Iraqis won't help us? what the hell can you do?

she's one sharp cookie if you ask me. I mean,....her makeup was perfect! you think that comes easy?
