Yes it's YOUR American History!

1. Doubling down on dumb.......

She is mixing 2 different accounts of Paul Revere's ride, puts it in a blender
and pours out WTF juice.

[Stonelaw]

17. In my neighborhood you have clean up after your dog . . .

. . . people are required to bring along a plastic bag and pick up the mess left behind. I wish John McCain had done the same thing after the 2008 election - scooping up the Sarah Palin crap instead of leaving it behind for everyone else to have to smell and step into. How rude!

[Enthusiast]

29. "WTF juice."

LMAO! :rofl:

[90-percent]

2. Sarah

Asking Sarah ANY QUESTION that does not have the answer written on her hand is a GOTCHA question to poor persecuted lil Sarah!

[Cant trust em]

4. +1.

She has no ability to take responsibility. It's always someone else's fault.

[90-percent]

9. GOTCHA question

Ps - I exhausted at least 7 minutes trying to find a version of the video where you can hearthe question she was asked.

No luck so far. Hell, maybe it was indeed a gotcha question?

At least she didn't talk about the keyboard player for a mid 60's pop-rock group that featured singer Mark Lindsay!

[Cant trust em]

12. The gotcha question probably was "Why was Paul Revere significant?"

In her view the gotcha question is one that gets thrown at her hoping that she'll flub it. They're questions designed to make her look like an idiot and they succeed.

37. Lawrence

He played the question Sarah was asked Monday night. It was something like; "What have you seen on your tour of Boston and what impressed you the most?"

So, any question that Sarah answers like an unprepared second grader giving an oral report is a GOTCHA question?

36. anyone with half a brain knows that when they're asked

an ambiguous question to ask for clarification--hell, she did it with charlie gibson: "In what respect?"

it's not like she doesn't know how to do it. She does. She was being intellectually lazy because that's where you have to descend when
you're doing your dog-whistle rhetoric for your base--you gotta dumb it down so they can catch up.

[FarLeftFist]

3. Uhh, Yeah No. That's not at all what happened.

What is it about republicans that make it impossible to ever say "you know what? I fucked up" they just can't EVER take responsibility for their failings.

[nolabear]

5. She talks like an eighth grader trying to "sell" a badly written essay to her teacher.

First she throws some crap out there and then when she's called out she reads some stuff and starts flinging around semi-accurate phrases and irrelevent facts ("See! I even know he was a courier!") to try to convince you that she didn't misspeak, you just misheard.

Again and again and again and again. And people will believe what they want, according to how their gut feels about her.

[MikeMc]

6. Revere is rolling over and ralphing in his grave...

which Palin sez is located in Grant's Tomb.

[Voice for Peace]

7. ahahha hahahhh ahahah hahaahaha

:rofl:

:crazy:

[Twostones]

8. If anyone falls for her crap

This woman is an insult to all women seeking justice and truth. What a fascist idiot she is. Gotcha question my ass. Any third grader knows what Paul Revere did on that day. Sara once again shows she is no more than a brown skid mark on the panties of the tea bagging republicans.

[Historic NY]

10. She really needs a cup of STFU.

[AtheistCrusader]

11. Whut...

I'm speechless.

[Thornleylv]

13. She knows her.......history

But not much about Americas

[rep the dems]

14. Even Chris Wallace...

is laughing at how stupid she is.

[Jack Rabbit]

15. Sarah, please explain the Bush Doctine to us one more time

Take all the time you like and please try not to leave anything out.

This will count as part of your grade.

[lob1]

20. In Palin's defense, even Bush didn't know what the

Bush doctrine was.

[Jack Rabbit]

25. Yeah, but Cheney and the neocons did

And I expect a candidate on any national ticket, from Democratic or Republican down to Socialist Workers or Prohibitionist, to be able to whiz through a high school civics exam. In 2008, when Charlie Gibson asked her about it, that would have been a fair question on a high school civics exam. She looked like a high school student who had been caught not completed her homework.

[lob1]

27. I agree. I was just joking that Bush is as stupid as Palin.

[JJW]

16. It's all Katie Couric's fault

If Obama can be President of US (a Kenyan), then Sarah can be Prime Minister of England or the President of France. U-betcha!

[pansypoo53219]

18. i'd love t see the daily show dud her voice with a grade schooler

on that first video and it MIGHT be age appropriate. or maybe a blonde beauty contestant.

[MrsBrady]

19. she can stand by it all she wants.

she's still wrong.

[DreamSmoker]

21. Smirking Chris Wallace

I have watched this Reporter give Democrats hell in an interview...
This time he is smiling as if Sarah just gave him a hummer....

[Veracious]

22. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

MMMhmm she knows dick.

[baldguy]

23. That's right Sarah, keep digging.

[tomm2thumbs]

24. what's old 'Vacancy Brain' up to now ?

oh, rewriting history to fit her level of Dumb... well, that's a surprise

[SemperEadem]

26. I feel sorry for anyone who is surprised by this

you're going to be in for a rough 18 months with this media whoring ignoramus.

[Ichingcarpenter]

28. Turn the Sound off and watch her eyes....teleprompter

Watch the whole interview with the sound off, not just the last question.

[stlsaxman]

30. She says "The British WERE ALREADY THERE"??? If so...

then why the fuck did Paul Revere yell

"The British are coming- the British are coming!"

:eyes:

[livingonearth]

31. This woman is the Queen of Bullshit!

[iamthebandfanman]

32. yes, asking about paul revere is a 'gotcha' question.

im starting to wonder if theres a question out there that miss palin doesnt think is insulting or above her so much as to be 'gotcha' material.


her name?

where shes from?

how the weather is ? oh wait, thats kinda gotcha ...

starting to wonder if could have used this defense while i was in school....

get a test and simply write in big letters "SORRY I DONT ANSWER 'GOTCHA' QUESTIONS"

[truth2power]

33. There's no argument about it. Read the statement, take out the extra words,

look at the antecedents etc. She's a moron.

"He who warned, uh, the British that they weren’t going to be taking away our arms uh by ringing those bells and making sure as he’s riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be secure and we were going to be free and we were going to be armed."

Who was ringing the bells? The British? (I picture the British stnading around ringing little bells and Paul Revere telling them that ringing bells won't cause the colonists to lay down their arms, or something like that.

He "sent" bells? Where did he send them?

this whole thing makes no sense.

[bowens43]

34. huh?

Are there really people out there who think that tis babbling idiot is capable of being President????

[DFW]

35. The scary part is this:

47% of the eligible voters in the 2008 election were willing to give her the chance.

That is one very scary statistic.
