Palin knew Reagan went to Eureka College in IL, She just just made a verbal slip, here's proof.
PJSTAR ^ | Tuesday June 29, 2010

Posted on 06/29/2010 6:00:02 PM PDT by Bigtigermike

Once again the truth comes out...

Sarah Palin spoke on April 17, 2010 in PEORIA, IL to a group of about 1,100 Saturday at Five Points Washington's "Lessons From Leaders" speakers series. Below are pointers on what she said about Ronald Reagan:

"She said the country needs a dose of "Midwestern common sense" and paid homage to former President Ronald Reagan, a Eureka College graduate, who she said believed in limited government in order to expand opportunity and prosperity. (Eureka College is 25 minutes; 18 miles from Peoria - emphasized)

"Say what you will about the humble Eureka College-educated Ronald Reagan, but he could have told our Harvard-educated president that his debt-ridden exercise . . . will not play in Peoria."

Sarah Palin made a verbal slip from reading on notes in a speech, it's human to slip ever so often, Barrack Obama uses a teleprompter and still He slips up on verbiage and has on occasion got lost in his lines, ....the only thing going on is PDS (Palin Derangement Syndrome) where every little thing about Palin is analyzed intently by LIBERAL BLOGGERS, MSM and FR-lackeys pimping for other candidates....

**Notice** nobody from the MSM or Palin Haters looked back in the past records to provide evidence that Palin had no clue previously about Reagan's college experience and where he went - which of course she did have knowledge.

I understand Palin talked extensively about Reagan in her May 10 speech at Rosemont, IL. I understand the Hillbuzz people have the portion where she discusses Reagan on video but I haven’t seen it uploaded anywhere. There may be more clarifying statements made there.

That’s proof of nothing, other than she was reading someone else’s speech.

Obviously when you read something written by someone else, you don’t learn anything from it. Sarah Palin and most of the rest of the human race, fortunately, does learn a thing or two.

Was she the one that liberated Auschwitz?

I commented when asked about this the other day that this was a trivial matter. Which it is. Most likely a mix up with a speech writer. It is a meaningless trivial matter, frankly, but leave it to BigTiger to try to cook up an excuse of a minor slip

Yes it was, sadly she passed on recently when the evil health insurance company refused to provide her with a breathalyzer to combat her asthma and I was to busy golfing, er I mean community organizing to go down to Walgreen’s and pick her one up.

The media made a mountain out of a molehill, not BigTiger, and it was pounced upon by detractors right here.

For my part, I think it was a verbal gaffe, not a speech text error. As you say, big deal.

A Verbal slip e.g Pelosi, “US lost 500 million jobs per month” She means thousand, but you accidentally say million. Problem with this verbal slip is that she then go on and repeat this same mistake 2-3 times more

Speaking of hacks, I just checked your thread posting history the last few months. I only see articles supporting Palin for President. Who else do you support as CIC? I’ve got about a half dozen.

With the profound stupidity of our so-called elected leaders, I cannot believe this is still worthy of comment. An inconsequential and meaningless error, slip of the tongue, whatever. It means nothing.

A president who thinks he may be elected for "eight or ten years" on the other hand, now that's worth taking a look at.

That’s just a good cover, IMO, since Hunter isn’t running for anything. Much too much vindictiveness against a conservative to be one. And that post was so unnecessary but nonetheless hatred knows no bounds.

This article shows that it's most likely she knows RR went to college in Illinois.

There are about a half dozen conservatives that may run for president? Please tell us who they are.

Right now there is ONLY ONE - SARAH. You know Patriot SARAH, the one who the commies hate and do ALL they can to trash her.

LOL LOL, I don’t know how I forgot that one! I must have been all wee wee’d up because I was in Arizona buying some ice cream when they asked to see my papers and they just didn’t believe that a birth certificate from 1964 -er I mean 1961- and they wouldn’t believe me when I told them that Hawaii was using laser jet printers to create birth certificates all those years ago.

Palin’s speech at CSU Stanislaus had so much substance...this is just yet another pathetic tactic to divert attention off to the VITAL AND IMPORTANT TRUTHS she communicated...It was the kind of speech a TRUE academic, who’s actually THOUGHT about something beyond the fluffy lies they’ve been indoctrinated with in our going-downhill education system would give.

Of course, the MSM is perfectly fine with Obama's travel to 57 states or Biden's claim that FDR was on the television when the 1929 Stock Market crashed...

I was thinking maybe she was thinking of a Eureka, California. Good to hear she knows Reagan went to college in Illinois. Maybe she can help send the current president back there someday.

Uh huh. I seem to recall telling folks here that McCain could not win. Yet they nominated him anyway. So it seems to me the RINO loving morons got their way last time, not me. With predictable results.

And if she had said Eureka, they would have made fun of her for putting the college in a TV town. “Will it play in Peoria” was an old vaudeville term. It was a test for how good a show was. It it played in Peoria, you had a hit.

First of all, McCain DIDN’T want to win - so it had nothing to do with you saying the obvious because no one wanted him - he was selected and you know it.

The ONLY reason he wasn’t totally embarrased were the millions of votes for SARAH! And YOU know that, also!

Try honesty while on FR, pissant - it’s a conservative trait.

That's a LIE!! And besides NOT every conservative is cut out to be a LEADER - you ALWAYS miss the obvious. Common sense is missing from your mindset BIG TIME as you shun REALITY! PIE in SKY, Pissant!

GO SARAH - KINGMAKER and QUEEN of COMMON SENSE - and that equates to TRUE CONSERVATISM.

As if any of the reporters had a clue as to where Reagan attended college. There was one of them who did a wiki lookup and then they all copied from his article.

BTW - Reagan childhood home is well worth a visit.
