[...] Boston University history professor Brendan McConville said, “Basically when Paul Revere was stopped by the British, he did say to them, ‘Look, there is a mobilization going on that you’ll be confronting,’ and the British are aware as they’re marching down the countryside, they hear church bells ringing — she was right about that — and warning shots being fired. That’s accurate.”
[...] Cornell law professor William Jacobson, who asserted last week that Palin was correct, linking to Revere quotes on his conservative blog Legalinsurrection.com, said Palin’s critics are the ones in need of a history lesson. “It seems to be a historical fact that this happened,” he said. “A lot of the criticism is unfair and made by people who are themselves ignorant of history.”
Final score:
SARAH PALIN: 1
ANKLEBITERS: 0
Awwwwwwwwwwww. ;)
Apparently Rick is living in denial in response to this evidence. So are the other sycophants responding in that article. Their attitude can be summed up in four words... “Obama’s smart, Palin’s dumb”.
