    Sarah Palin: "We must stand by our North Korean allies"
    Sarah Palin’s foreign policy credentials suffered another hefty blow today when she mistakenly insisted that America must stand by its “North Korean allies”.

    The former beauty queen was asked about the conflict on the Korean peninsula during an appearance on Glenn Beck’s radio show. Twice she claimed that the US must stand firm alongside Kim Jong Il’s Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.
    Mrs Palin was lampooned during her failed Vice-Presidential campaign in 2008 for claiming that Alaska’s proximity to Russia gave her an edge when it came to Kremlinology.

    She was also caught out in a foreign policy interview when it became clear that she had no idea what constituted the sitting president’s “Bush doctrine”.

    She really doesn't have a clue! LOL :D

    The fact that so many people in the US love her and want to vote for her is crazy.

    I wonder what North Korea made of this. I'd say they were very confused

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    That mistake won't matter a **** to the hundreds of thousands who will vote for her, sure they couldn't find North Korea on a map anyway.

    Matt Damon summed her up perfectly in the run up to the elections a few years back:

    Sarah Palin and the Irish parliament (Dail) seem to have a lot in common.

    Would be an interesting reverse psychology method to use on them.

    Pretty ironic that in pointing out her gaff's, you made quite a significant 'gaffe' yourself.

    Pretty, pretty, pretty ironic.

    I'm not trying to be smart, or dismissive, but when you cite celebrities to clarify your political stance ... well, you're not much better are you?

    Look I'm not defending Palin, or bush. But I got caught up in the whole Obama >>>>> anything the republicans can muster thing a few years ago. Ultimately, it's the same old sh!t.
    Palin won't be that bad, because she'll be a puppet, just like Bush was. And in a way, that's how a government should be -- no-one should have absolute power. And she won't.


    I will say, had Bush flubbed his Oath of Office like Obama did, there wouldn't be an hour gone by when you didn't hear about it. because it was Obama, it was accepted as it should have been for Bush or Palin: a human error!

    The fact that she was ever even considered as a candidate for the GOP is a savage indictment of the American political system.

    Grandpa Simpson once said- We've got a whole system set up to keep people like you from ever becoming president. It's a shame that doesn't reflect reality.

    My spelling mistakes at worst, could hurt my ego.
    Her mistakes at worst if she gets to power in the White House - could cost lives!

    If she runs in the next elections and god forbid wins, I genuinely dont think other world leaders could take her seriously. Shes one of those people that when you see her walking into a room everyone is nudging eachother waiting for her to fall flat on her face!

    Obama didn't get the oath wrong - the guy swearing him in did (a republican) and Obama corrected him. And no he is not the Messiah, just another politician.
