And, remember, Sarah Palin never said she could see Russia from her house. She said that you can see part of Russia from a part of Alaska.

Tina Fey, impersonating Sarah Palin, said that she could see Russia from her house.

For the record, Big Diomede Island is Russian territory, while Little Diomede Island is part of Alaska. The two islands are a couple of miles apart. You can indeed see Big Diomede Island from Little Diomede Island.

Of course, what I just wrote is too nuanced for the liberals to understand. So, they go with the Tina Fey quote which is constantly incorrectly attributed to Sarah Palin.

Yes. During the Korean War, My Dad was stationed in the Aleutians PRECISELY because STALIN’S RUSSIA was within striking distance. Alaska was once a Russian Colony, and don’t think for one minute that Ol’ Uncle Joe wasn’t fully aware of that.

Don’t think that about the current rulers of Russia either.

“You can actually see Russia, from land, here in Alaska.”

Thank you for pointing out the actual Sarah Palin quote. You would not believe the number of times that I have had to correct the idiots that I work with. When I do all I get is blank stares, a brief pause and then they go back to their original conversation about how stupid they think Sarah Palin is. Within a few minutes they will repeat the Tina Fey quote. It is like I am living in the real life version of Idiocracy, the movie.
