You know, I'm so thoroughly sick and tired of people rushing to Palin's defense, making excuses for her whenever she fucks up while talking. When she answered a question about the TARP bailouts in 2008? She just wasn't used to being put on the spot on national television. When she said her supporters shouldn't "party like it's 1773"? People excused the fact that she meant 1776 by saying the Boston Tea Party occurred in 1773--uh, why would the Boston Tea Party be used to discuss celebration rather than the fucking thing we celebrate every July 4th? When she said the North Koreans were our allies? She just misspoke. Now when she says Paul Revere was riding his horse, ringing bells and shooting his gun to warn the British that they couldn't take the colonists' guns away they perform amazing mental gymnastics to excuse it. "But, shots did go off, and people did ring church bells!" "But it was a warning to the British, because...well, just because!" Jesus Christ, people... EDIT: Oh god, and refudiate. Fucking refudiate. Yeah that was totally on purpose. She's just like fucking Shakespeare. |

I wouldn't be surprised if Palin's justification was the result of her following's justification for her blathering.
Oh, wait, I shouldn't say that. That's an insult to blathering.

She wrote it down, was happy with it, then posted it. She simply thought it was a word. In fact, it wasn't even the stupidest part of the post. Her suggestion that the construction of a building is violent was. |

*chuckles, grins wickedly, and nods*Nice riposte, that. Indeed. ;D Palin is currently on Fox News Sunday and was asked about the Revere goofup. Her comment was essentially this(paraphrased because I can't remember exact words), "I was right, Revere did warn the British. The British troops had been in Boston for 7 years, everyone knew they were already here. Revere was warning the British that they didn't stand a chance." <facepalm> Now I just have an image in my head of Revere monologuing to tied-up Redcoats on a conveyor belt.Because of what that trope is named after, I have an image of him setting them up the bomb. |

You had food up your ass? riposte, that. I had to look up what "riposte" meant. Now I feel like a dumbass. Sarah Palin's defending her statement? Here's an idea that won't make you look like a total dipshit; just say that you got your words mixed up. This is a classic demonstration of "digging yourself deeper." |

How can people actually support someone this stupid running for president? I mean it's like voting in someone who's a C- student or somet.. oh, shit. |

Didn't Graham Chapman say something like "I can wear whatever I want on my longfellow" in a Monty Python skit about Catholics forbidding condoms?
Anyway, this reminds me that Sarah Palin said the vice-president was in charge of the senate three separate times...

Well, the VP is technically the president of the Senate, so that error is somewhat understandable. Hell, I'm surprised a woman as dense as she is actually knew that the VP officially has anything to do with the Senate at all. |
