Think Progress posts a brief transcript along with the corresponding video of a simple question asked by Katie Couric that elicited a very convoluted answer from Sarah Palin:

COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world?

PALIN: I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media —

COURIC: But what ones specifically? I’m curious.

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

COURIC: Can you name any of them?

PALIN: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news.

Or is it she just doesn’t get her information from any newspapers or magazines? Perhaps she gets her news directly from Sean Hannity.

This is who the Republicans want to be their next vice president? Seriously?

Well, there’s a website that says it can answer this very important question: “Is Barack Obama a Muslim?”
