Sarah Palin has committed yet another political blunder after claiming she had held talks with a British ambassador - talks that never actually took place.

Yeah, it’s a good thing that nothing important like having your helicopter “forced down” or anything like that happened.

UUuuuggggghhhhhh.........

Enough already.

I know. I know. Sarah is a complete and total walking idiot. Hell, she isn't even capable of tying her own shoes for crying out loud.

I hope she kicks Bidens a$$ all over the joint tonight just to shut these people UP!

The hate the dems have for her is just spooky.
