What difference does it make. She's sat with tutors on policy matters before and learned nothing. For Commodore and basso to pretend like she did know something because Revere wrote a letter is silly. She was talking about him riding the horse, and not any letter that he wrote. She even mentioned the horse ride. It was indeed the famous ride of Paul Revere that the confused Palin was trying to reference. It's just embarrassing for anyone else to try and make up things in an effort to have it appear like she knew what she was saying.
because she's funny, and there are those who support her and don't have the sense to be embarrassed of her like you apparently do. If I was right leaning in politics I would feel exactly the same way you do. She isn't important like any real issues such as unemployment, war on terror, medicare, deficit, etc. She isn't really even as important as anyone who is actually running for office. Yet she does garner a ton of attention.
Don't you think this media fascination with Sarah Palin goes hand-in-hand with its leftward-leaning bias? She's nothing but a live reality show.
So Palin is just a media creation? She was never governor of Alaska and the GOP VP candidate in 2008? So, she isn't really 2nd in GOP opinion polls for president? Is it just the media turning out for her ridiculous bus tour? When in doubt, just blame the leftward-leaning media because somehow it's always their fault.
On social issues, the media tilts left, but the networks are corporate shills, and that's a sad fact.
Well Billy Bob said she would would need to be some 'historical scholar' to know this stuff. I don't agree with that assertion. I think you are confused. The letter is Paul Revere describing what he did on that night, including warning the British 500 Americans were coming.
I agree with that. The media at times has left leaning bias, and at times other bias. They have one over arching bias that trumps all of it and that's a $$ bias. They try to appear fair and sometimes pretend that there are two sides to some stories that only have one side when looking at facts. They have a bias to be first with a big story, they have a bias not to be left out of a big story that other media is covering. All of those things trump any kind of left or right bias.
But on that horse ride even according to the letter there is no mention of him warning the British about taking the colonists guns, or any of the other crap that Palin was talking about in her babbling. For anyone to pretend like the letter describing the evening of the ride in anyway validates a thing Sarah Palin said hasn't read the letter, and/or doesn't understand what Palin said. It doesn't get her off the hook and show that she was right. It only goes to show even more that nothing she said can be traced back to anything that supposedly happened in reality or the common history and story of Paul Revere's ride. According the letter commodore linked to, Paul Revere's warning to the British was about them getting wiped out by colonists that he'd already alerted. It wasn't a warning not to take our guns or any of the other crap Sarah Palin started talking about. So for basso to claim that Palin knows more than her critics just shows how ignorant basso is of the facts. He's so ignorant that he fails to see how ignorant she is. Not the letter nor their proclamation about the letter changes what's actually in the letter, or what Sarah Palin said.
She had to spend most of her time dealing with ridiculous ethic charges from Democrats. She was eventually cleared of every one, but she had little time to do the duties of governor. This is her explanation and it seems perfectly reasonable to me.
