1. "As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where– where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border." --Sarah Palin, explaining why Alaska's proximity to Russia gives her foreign policy experience, interview with CBS's Katie Couric, Sept. 24, 2008 (Watch video clip)

2. "The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil." –-Sarah Palin, in a message posted on Facebook about Obama's health care plan, Aug. 7, 2009

3. "All of 'em, any of 'em that have been in front of me over all these years." --Sarah Palin, unable to name a single newspaper or magazine she reads, interview with Katie Couric, CBS News, Oct. 1, 2008 (Watch video clip)

4. "Well, let's see. There's ― of course in the great history of America there have been rulings that there's never going to be absolute consensus by every American, and there are those issues, again, like Roe v. Wade, where I believe are best held on a state level and addressed there. So, you know, going through the history of America, there would be others but ―" --Sarah Palin, unable to name a Supreme Court decision she disagreed with other than Roe vs. Wade, interview with Katie Couric, CBS News, Oct. 1, 2008 (Watch video clip)

5. "'Refudiate,' 'misunderestimate,' 'wee-wee'd up.' English is a living language. Shakespeare liked to coin new words too. Got to celebrate it!'" --a Tweet sent by Sarah Palin in response to being ridiculed for inventing the word "refudiate," proudly mistaking her illiteracy for literary genius, July 18, 2010

6. "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, botching the history of Paul Revere's midnight ride, June 3, 2011

7. "But obviously, we've got to stand with our North Korean allies." --Sarah Palin, after being asked how she would handle the current hostilities between the two Koreas, interview on Glenn Beck's radio show, Nov. 24, 2010

8. "Especially within hours of a tragedy unfolding, journalists and pundits should not manufacture a blood libel that serves only to incite the very hatred and violence they purport to condemn. That is reprehensible." --Sarah Palin, defending her fiery campaign rhetoric in the wake of the Arizona shooting massacre by invoking a phrase ("blood libel") that typically refers historically to the alleged murder of Christian babies by Jews, Jan. 12, 2011

9. "We used to hustle over the border for health care we received in Canada. And I think now, isn't that ironic?" --Sarah Palin, admitting that her family used to get treatment in Canada's single-payer health care system, despite having demonized such government-run programs as socialized medicine that will lead to death-panel-like rationing, March 6, 2010

10. "Ohh, good, thank you, yes." --Sarah Palin, after a notorious Canadian prank caller, posing as French President Nicolas Sarkozy, complimented her on the documentary about her life, Hustler's "Nailin Paylin," Nov. 1, 2008

I read alot..

several magazines.. and a few newspapers.. but other then our local weekly paper I do not read any one source with regularity.. I read what is available where I happen to be...

doctors office.. maybe it's a travel mag or natural geographic.

the list goes on.. at home I see a topic.. do a bit of searching.. often looking for mainstream sources.. that often takes alot of reading to get beyond what a liberal thinks.. and to the facts..

in a country of 300 million plus.. one of our biggest papers puts out about 1.87 million papers.. (many end up in the trash never read).. and many who buy one paper tend to get several just to make them look smart.

so by you and Couric's standards that leaves about say 312 million uninformed folk out there..

nope fact is other then those who get a bunch of papers to make themselves look smart.. most Americans apparently read what ever is put in front of them.. and in her case that could translate to alot of reading from alot of different sources.


the Couric interview was heavily edited to make her look ill informed..

but clearly you are not willing to look beyond the sound bite to the facts to see the facts..

We need not judge palin by her stupid statements and overlook the glaring, obvious stupid actions by our very own president. I'd trade her for him in a minute.

I would bet that if we voted for President and vice president separately Palin would have been VP...

and made far less gaffs then Biden did..

If you live in Boston’s 617 area code, you might want to check your voice mail messages. On Tuesday, Marty Walsh won the mayor’s race in Boston and Vice President Biden wanted to call the Democrat and congratulate him. As reported on TheBlaze, Biden did call someone named Marty Walsh, it was just not the one that is now the mayor-elect in Boston.

Yesterday we learned that Biden called more than one wrong number before finally eventually reaching the correct Mr. Walsh.
