Palin: "keep good relation with.....Russia"

ABC News edited its interview with Palin to remove moderate and diplomatic comments about Russia, making her sound belligerent and frightening in a way that the sum total of her actual statements did not justify:

We have that very narrow maritime border between the United States, and the 49th state, Alaska, and Russia. They are our next door neighbors.We need to have a good relationship with them. They’re very, very important to us and they are our next door neighbor.....I’m giving you that perspective of how small our world is and how important it is that we work with our allies to keep good relation with all of these countries, especially Russia. We will not repeat a Cold War. We must have good relationship with our allies, pressuring, also, helping us to remind Russia that it’s in their benefit, also, a mutually beneficial relationship for us all to be getting along.

Hardly the words of a fanatic who is impatient to take power so she can launch an apocalyptic war against the eastern Colossus. Read it all.
