That's the fact, Jack!
How did rumors of a Bachmann-Palin feud start again? Oh yes, Michele's campaign manager, Ed Rollins.
That's the fact, Jack!
There is no feud! It's all made up and a ploy by the media and fodder for dupes.
Dido with the exaggerated gaffs and made up media MB lies that generate a lot of blah blah blah.
MB is our current leading candidate. Show me where she's wrong on the issues.
A small portion of Sarah Palin's Paul Revere statement was correct .... sort of .... if you rationalize it enough and, in regards to the rest of the statement, you just announce, "Move along folks. Absolutely nothing to see here. Move along now. No! Do NOT look at that part! Just move along."
No historian ever has, or ever will, back the Palin version of Paul Revere "ringing those bells and .... to send those warning shots and bells".
Maybe I am showing my age but, when I was in elementary school, every school child knew about "One if by land and two if by sea", referring to silent LANTERNS, at the tower of the Old North Church. Paul Revere never fired a single warning shot or rang a single bell.
In addition, the primary mission of Paul Revere was to warn the COLONISTS of the approach of the British troops. The fact that Revere was captured and .... ummm ... "persuaded" with "enhanced interrogation techniques" .... ("Start talking, Yank, if you want to live until sunrise.") .... by the British to spill some of the beans (he lied about the colonist numbers), in no way, shape or form means that the primary mission of Paul Revere was to trash-talk to the British as Sarah Palin implied.
In Sarah Palin's version, you can imagine Paul Revere riding from town to town, firing shots and ringing bells, in order to trash-talk to the British:
"You want our arms, Redcoats! Come and get 'em. (BANG! BANG!) We'll kick your Limey butts! (CLANG! CLANG!) Did you hear those bells, Redcoats? (CLANG! CLANG!) We're ready for you. With this! (BANG! BANG!) And this! (BANG! BANG!)"
Sarah Palin, after hearing about History or reading about History, retains some of it, ... sort of, ... but let's just say that she takes a lot of cleaning up after.
"He who warned, uh, the British that they weren’t gonna be takin’ away our arms, uh, by ringing those bells, and um, makin' sure as he’s riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be sure and we were going to be free, and we were going to be armed." .... Sarah Palin.
After the warning of the British advance reached the colonists, were bells rung BY THE COLONISTS and warning shots fired BY THE COLONISTS?
Yes, they did not have Telephone Trees back then.
Did Paul Revere ever ring bells HIMSELF and fire warning shots HIMSELF as Sarah Palin claimed?
Of course not. That would be totally idiotic on Paul Revere's part. The last thing that Paul Revere wanted on his ride to warn the colonists of the British advance was to call British attention to himself and increase his risk of capture by the British.
Did Paul Revere ever want to tell the British anything that night?
Of course not. The LAST thing that Paul Revere wanted that night was to have ANY contact or ANY communication with the British whatsoever.
