How about Mark Levine also, and Rush, if we are going to have a “people connection” threshold. Their “knowledge of the issues” would even include the longitude and latitude of Russia from the Palin porch, and a question referring to their personal library, or to the books they read, would not be taken as a personal threat to their person, nor an assault on their charactor. Mark and Rush would likely even know that North Korea and South Korea is not a reference to the northern region nor the southern end of Korea.
Sorry, I am flawed. I have no patience with the incessant laudible descriptions of Palin as being anywhere near precision on world history and geography, as “knowledge of the issues”.
I agree with you.
Boy, are you ever!
Do you mean Mark Levin? Or the wierdo Mark Levine? And the quote you use from Lazlo indicates you and he are both a bit off mark. To what end? What a dumb thing to gather from the post. Sarah Palin is a media figure, (I’ll slow down so dodo’s can understand) and she has a vast knowledge of every issue. Since the media is having a conniption about Trump moderating the debate, he could have a media figure present who knows the things he doesn’t, like everything besides, “China sucks.”
You like to use Tina Fey’s SNL parody and Palin’s obvious (and immediately rectified) slip-of-the-tongue on Korea to disparage her intelligence.... Yet you’ve had a history of worshipping the ever-so-brilliant Rick Perry to the hilt. Yeah, whatever.
I don’t remember any examples where Palin was imprecise about history or geography. Certainly not enough to reveal a pattern or show any lack of depth in her knowledge.
I can see your face turning green from my house!
