The mark of any successful political venture by Governor Palin often results a misrepresentation of her words that only leaves the media with egg on their faces. Governor Palins bus tour has been successful in allowing her to highlight the greatness of the history of America, meet everyday Americans and fellow politicians, and share her policy stances on everything from fishing regulations in New Hampshire to ethanol subsidies to the debt ceiling. Such successes leaves the media grasping at proverbial bendy straws. Todays news is no different. Poised with the opportunity to more appropriately address political stories essentially pre-written for them, such as abysmal jobs numbers under the Obama administration or the newest report that the federal government lends financial aid to the very same countries from whom they borrow , the media have chosen to focus more on their own historical ignorance by creating a story out of a non-story and misportraying Governor Palins comments on Paul Revere yesterday:

In schools today, ‘history’ pretty much begins with the ‘War Between the States’..... Nothing happened in America before then....
The problem is that the Mdia has put their version on the news and we will not here Sarah’s true storry except right here in Free Republic.
Don’t expect a retraction. In fact they may even repeat it even after knowing the truth,because they know the kool aid drinkers will believe their story.
Thanks. We need to counter these troll posts and set the record right.
Indeed.
Put me on your ping list please...I just suggested this article deserved a thread of its own, hadn’t seen yours.
And a rewritten history at that...
Yes and this time from Canada. Poor Canada.
Having spent a while with live mic on the radio, you are correct, it was a combined thought. It sometimes happens and even the best speaker will do it on occasion. When we do it, we say “let me restate that” and seperate our thoughts. Sarah is not being given the chance to do so.
That’s all it is. And I will cut her some slack. Been there, done that, will probably do that again.
“I see dumb people...
... they’re everywhere...
... they walk around like everyone else...
... they don’t even know that they’re dumb...
And...
Some of them...
...THEY POST HERE”
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are the newest recipient of the prestigious “Pissant Award”. You should be very proud.
Done!!!
Oh I totally agree that’s what happened. Tired, half concentrating, mind moving faster than tongue and her comments got garbled. Problem is, she garbled her comments on camera and then didn’t correct them. It’s not a big deal, but it sure as hell isn’t her “showing up the MSM” as the author of this piece is claiming.
You have just proven to be a much nicer person than me. ;>)
The last thing Palin needs to test at this point is whether she can draw a crowd.
Sorry Canuck. That ain't yer call.
Or this from one of the rats own heroes:
“Truman (who was 27) wrote to his future wife, Bess: “I think one man is just as good as another so long as he’s honest and decent and not a nigger or a Chinaman.” Harry Truman

Tea Party USA - Modern Day Paul Reveres - Growing by the day!
Unfortunately, your sarcasm...and I agree....is what the truth amounts to today.
History is in the eye of the beholder anymore...or it’s whatever
the teacher says it is. HERE, it’s more about the history of
Mexico than of the United States. :(
