"pro-American patriotically"?

Did Palin attend the same grammar schools as Bush?

Biden lashes out at Palin's 'pro-America' commentStory Highlights
NEW: Joe Biden: "It doesn't matter where you live, we all love this country"

(CNN) -- Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden ripped into recent comments by his Republican counterpart that suggested that some places in the U.S. are more "pro-America" than others.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told a fundraiser in Greensboro, North Carolina, on Thursday night:

"We believe that the best of America is in the small towns that we get to visit, and in the wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard-working, very patriotic, very pro-America areas of this great nation," she said.

"This is where we find the kindness and the goodness and the courage of everyday Americans," Palin added.

On Friday, Palin clarified her comments.

"It's all pro-America. I was just reinforcing the fact that there, where I was, there's good patriotic people there in these rallies, so excited about positive change and reform of government that's coming that they are so appreciative of hearing our message, hearing our plan. Not any one area of America is more pro-America patriotically than others," she said.

1. No.. Bush was actually Ivy leauge..
literally and comparitively.

She's beyond pathetic... I almost wonder why Letterman, etc. aren't pulling for her - they'll have a hell of a lot more material for the next 4 years. Also a higher chance for a nuke going off here as well though, so perhaps they're balancing it smartly. :eyes:

And the answer is "no."

5. "pro-America PARTS", palin'. If you are so poorly educated on the English language
that you didn't realize "pro-America PARTS of the country" must mean OTHER PARTS that are NOT "pro-America", then you are too uneducated/ignorant/unelitist etc to be in any government, darlin'.

6. "Small town" as in "close-minded, Bible-thumping, racists" probably.
