Damnit. Show Us the Clip! Show Us the Clip!

I don't know why the conservatives are always railing against the media elite and claiming liberal bias when stuff like this happens. Apparently, there is unaired footage of the Couric/Palin interview that was too awful to show on TV.

I mean, how could it be worse that what they aired?

According to HuffPo:

Of concern to McCain's campaign, however, is a remaining and still-undisclosed clip from Palin's interview with Couric last week that has the political world buzzing.

The Palin aide, after first noting how "infuriating" it was for CBS to purportedly leak word about the gaffe, revealed that it came in response to a question about Supreme Court decisions.

After noting Roe vs. Wade, Palin was apparently unable to discuss any major court cases.

There was no verbal fumbling with this particular question as there was with some others, the aide said, but rather silence.

Not a single other Supreme Court case? Brown vs. Board of Education? Miranda v. Arizona? Gideon v. Wainwright? That Texas case about sodomy? Couric totally should've asked her to name two Supreme Court justices. Just to see, you know?
