Under the “O” administration we have an economic train wreck, illicit and coerced ‘health care’ reform, unconstitutional deployment of US resources and troops, etc. ...but Liberals are waiting for Sarah Palin to marble-mouth something in her speeches. (AS IF “O” NEVER HAS and DOESN’T STILL!!!!)

[TShaunK]

It kind of reminds me of when my wife takes a wild guess on Jeopardy and answers correctley.
She was right but really didn’t know the answer.And anyone who is honest know that.

Keep returning to the basics.
These people are Marxists at heart.

It all makes sense when you understand that they have no moral code except for

“advancement of Marxism is a moral good, thwarting of Marxism is evil”

and everything, I mean EVERYTHING, can be justified in their minds based on this premise.

[biggredd1]

sorta like hussein obama knowing it is 2011 but writes 2008.

Oh, really? Her dad’s a history teacher and she know exactly what she wanted to TEACH to an ignorant public...She talked about the event in a way to hit on the points she wanted to make.....that the Brits were warned by Revere after he was captured that the alarm had been sent by the riders that night and the shots and bells they heard were the Colonists preparing to resist.....you can read Revere’s own words in his letter. Your smug comment is typical of someone short on facts but long on feelings. Get a clue, pal, before you mouth off.

BLUF - Paul Revere was captured and held by the British during his “Midnight Ride.”

Paul Revere was one of many riders who left the environs of Boston to warn the country side of the impend British march on Concord and Lexington. His route was completed by another rider, Dr Prescott, after Paul Revere was captured by a British patrol.

According to Wikipedia, Revere told his capturers about the British movement from Boston and about the probability of a fight near Lexington as that is where the militia was assembling.

You have to remember that the Longfellow poem, which most, if not all, history books are based was written in 1851, 76 years after Paul Revere’s ride (1775) and 40 years after his death.

What Mick said!

I wonder how I would come off if I was given a pop quiz on a variety of subjects every 30 seconds.

I wonder how any of us would come off, especially when it is possible to take something out of context and hold it up to ridicule.

Of course you TShaunK would be perfect, like everything you do and say, so I guess you can put yourself as the arbitrator on what we mortals should think or believe.

If you think Mrs Palin fumbled a question, by all means vote for the Democrat of your choice, we all know how that has worked out.

Sarah Palin's "sin" is that she's positive and friendly and holds core beliefs.

To her distractors (GOP and Leftist) “Palin radiates a sense of grievance that is antithetical to the Reagan style and spirit and vindictive: Sarah Palin’s enemies list and their transgressions

[Cincinatus' Wife]

It kind of reminds me of when my wife takes a wild guess on Jeopardy and answers correctley.

And you? You get them all right? Or don't you try?

[Siena Dreaming]

Even if she did make this minor slip (which she didn't), the MSM is acting like she does it every day.

She doesn't...she is usually RIGHT on target.

Meanwhile, Obama can say "57 States" and not have it be an international story for a week.

(Does this rise to the sin of Palin making a note on her hand which also was a major sensation?) Absolutely asinine.

[stayathomemom]

I got in a discussion on facebook about this when a friend of mine posted a video of Palin's comments. The narrator of the video said at the conclusion of Sarah's comments something like, "Everyone knows that the colonists were warned by lantern."
What makes this whole thing so sad, and angering is that my friend who posted the video presented it with a comment about 'how stupid Palin is and just think, she was almost a heartbeat from the Presidency. How scary is that!' My friend, incidentally, is the chair of the history department at a university in the Midwest. She did not participate in the ensuing discussion when I, as politely as I could, told her that perhaps she was wrong.

[Veristhorne]

A good article, but seems to perpetuate the myth of Sarah saying she could see Russia from her back yard, I can’t believe how often I still hear that. That was Tina Faye, imitating Sarah on Saturday Night Live...

[unseen1]

Your comment reminds me of the students who got D’s on their test and justified their stupidity by saying those that got A’s were lucky

[MulberryDraw]

She has a gift for feeling the love and expressing the enthusiasm Americans feel in their bones for their God and their country. ... it’s a gift the president doesn’t have.

for sure

[Al B.]

mick! One word for your post, FRiend....Barracuda! LOL.

[super7man]

Reminds me of politicians who say that they need to take more money from the A’s because they were lucky, not that they worked their a$$e$ off. And they then give it to the D’s.

[steveo]

If you asked obozo about Paul Revere he probably say ‘That’s Mark Lindsay right?’
