“A slip of the tongue in many cases doesn’t signify a lack of knowledge.

Yet you assume it does. “

You’re DARN RIGHT. I’m quicker to distinguish the Koreas apart than to distinguish my kids apart (since I’ve followed the Koreas much longer than my kids have been alive). There are areas where one does not slip.

any conservative or Republican or non-lefty, will be crucified for making a gaffe. And the MSM will not ever let it die!

Exactly! The MSM will run with it until there is another misstep to take it's place...and it's going to get worse as the election closes in.

Care to tell us who you support for 2012? Obviously you are backing someone and my money is on Mitt.

“Confusing North Korea for South Korea, and not meaning it...”

Especially when it was cued up: ‘North Korea, North Korea, North Korea’...’North Korean allies’ - all within about 10 seconds.

Not a big deal.

Post police: "Sarah Palin needs to watch what she say's. This is what the media is waiting on so they can get ammunition to go after her and that she is inexperienced to be president. "

I believe you meant "says" in place of "say's". Also, you need to insert "too" between "is" and "experienced". If you were Sarah and I was employed by the propaganda corps (pronounced "corpse" by Obama, but that's okay with the professional left), I'd go on from there to rephrase the middle of your statement, but I think my point is clear. [Your point was clear too, as was Sarah's.]

There are two types that will antagonize her for this insignificant mis-slip: RATS who will not be able to rouse interest in this next Monday (it’ll be old news), and freeper PDSers, who will quote this at every opportunity for the next two years.

Who needs enemies, with friends like these?

Sept. 22, 2009 -- Sarah Palin speaking in Hong Kong:
"I know that you all — like all of Asia and indeed the whole world – has a keen interest in the emergence of “China as a great power.” Over the past few decades China’s economic growth has been remarkable. So has the economic growth and political liberalization of all of our key allies in Asia, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan."
And again in the speech:
"With its open political system and vibrant democracy, South Korea wants to play a larger role on the international stage as well. Of course it wants us to work together toward a future where the peninsula is irreversibly denuclearized, and unified. But it also wants to play a global role. We need to work together with Japan, South Korea and our steadfast ally to the south, Australia, to make sure Asia remains peaceful and prosperous."

The people who use this slip of the tongue to bash Sarah are a bunch of PDS-infected cowards. End of story. It's an outrage that they use FR to promulgate this crap. This ain't HuffPo.

“She also said she believed Saddam Hussein attacked the United States on Sept. 11, 2001.”

If you read Stephen Hayes’ “Connections” you can see how Saddam Hussein had ties with Al Qaeda, and extensive ties with violent terrorism throughout the middle east. Iraq was clearly a rogue state and its Iraqi Intelligence Services and diplomatic priveleges (diplomatic pouches) were used to assist terrorist organizations and terrorists in their missions. It was all part of the ‘greater Middle East’ leadership aspirations that Saddam Hussein had.

“Intersting that you mention East and West Germany, considering the comment Palin proxy Joe Miller made in admiration of East Germany’s Berlin Wall.” It just makes you wonder what they were doing in the middle of the Cold War...if they can’t tell that apart...or remember which side is which.

Miller served on the Berlin Wall when he was (i believe)a cadet. You look foolish Bobby, lecturing Joe Miller about East Germany.

Sarah Palin needs to watch what she say's.

And perhaps you should watch what you type. It is says, not say's. Intelligence Officer?

The entire interview was excellent. Glenn asked questions on a number of subjects and Sarah answered naturally and to the point, as she does, and they were basically just chit-chatting, not really doing in-depth policy wonk stuff.

And of course someone has to take this one slip and deceitfully use it to make it sound like she didn’t know the difference between N. and S. Korea, and if heard in context with the rest of it, anyone listening knew it was nothing more than a slip. How dishonest, though not surprising. Ugh!

Be careful, Sarah, you’re not allowed to be human.

What's equally pathetic, I think, are the number of people on this forum who buy into the idea that Palin is not qualified to be President. She know's that the government's job is to protect our freedoms and not to protect us from our own weaknesses. Knowing the difference between "right" and "wrong" is so much more critical to our nation's future than knowing "south" from "north". I wouldn't care that Obama doesn't know that there are 50 states if I was confident that protecting the freedom of the people in all those states was his only job.

Very well said. The Philosophy of the president is most important. She can appoint the right people. The Obama appointments are an embarrassment to our free enterprise system. Her belief in free enterprise and the constitution is what is scary to some. What scares me is the attempt by some RINOs to eat their own.

Damn good thing she didn't say we have 57 States, that would disqualify her for sure.

I guess Obama will have to call in the corpsemen to go after her.

Dear Officer,

I know you've retired your intelligence, and that can make replying to your own thread a tad difficult. But there is a bit of a tradition on FR that when one posts an article he actually stays around for the discussion.

Since you are a N00b, maybe you're not aware of the culture, so I won't accuse you of being a hit and run troll just yet. Please feel FRee to adumbrate, elucidate, edify, jump in, or even just say something -- anything -- stupid or otherwise.

It is your topic, after all.

FRegards,
FRed

I heard this on Glenn Beck this morning. Whoop-dee-doo. She slipped and caught herself right away. It was Pat, I think that said, “South Korean”, and he just quickly slipped it in there.

It’s not as if she really didn’t know the difference. Leave it to liberals to try to make this into something.

*Sheeesh*

You're correct, it shouldn't matter..unfortunately it does matter to the MSM and their intentions to bring her down. So though we can easily dismiss her errors..others certainly will not. They are vultures when it comes to Palin.

As for Obama’s stupidity....and grievous actions...I try not to compare Sarah to him..it simply brings her down to his level of standards...and they are as low as one can get. So saying she's not as bad is not helpful for her. She can stand alone.

Yikes. Back to Palin, I don't have a huge heaping mountain of confidence in her seeking another office, but based on the briskness of her comments in the audio, I'm willing to chalk this up to a slip of the tongue.
