John Kerry Ridicules Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin On Russia At Dem Convention
Ok, the word priceless doesn't do this video clip justice. What word really covers this clown and what he says here given today's world events. This needs to be played nonstop across this country.

Wow! I used to think UGA was a decent school academically but if they employ idiots like that lady I'd say students are better off getting a degree from ECPI or University of Phoenix.

I don't think Sarah Palin is a foremost expert on Russia, but she was right. Mitt was too. In fact, anyone with common sense should have seen what Putin would do in the face of weakness.

The basis for the line was Governor Palin's 11 September 2008 appearance on ABC News, her first major interview after being tapped as the vice-presidential nominee. During that appearance, interviewer Charles Gibson asked her what insight she had gained from living so close to Russia, and she responded: "They're our next-door neighbors, and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska":

Which was and still is true. And if the skit said that, it wouldn't have been funny. So, they lied and said something ridiculous, like from her home. And then liberals and Dems, who have no integrity whatsoever, used the made up ridiculous line in the skit to attribute it to Palin. I think some of them in the MSM even went to Wasilla to point out that they couldn't see Russia. Politics aside Fit, aren't you better than that....I can't imagine you would support such a blatant misrepresentation.

That is the absolute truth. Why is that so hard to understand?

That statement was from an SNL skit but the ignorant MSM credited Palin with it.
She may not have said those exact words but SNL didn't totally make it up either.

So, as has been pointed out, your first post was a lie.
Any chance you will say something to the effect of "I lied"?
RE: John Kerry Ridicules Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin On Russia At Dem Convention
And from the Katie Couric interview (it shortly followed the Gibson interview):
"COURIC: You’ve cited Alaska’s proximity to Russia as part of your foreign-policy experience. What did you mean by that?
PALIN: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and on our other side, the land — boundary that we have with — Canada. It, it’s funny that a comment like that was — kind of made to cari — I don’t know. You know. Reporters —
COURIC: Mocked?
PALIN: Yeah, mocked, I guess that’s the word, yeah.
COURIC: Explain to me why that enhances your foreign policy credentials.
PALIN: Well, it certainly does because our— our next door neighbors are foreign countries. They're in the state that I am the executive of. And there in Russia—
COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?
PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We— we do— it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where— where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is— from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to— to our state."
I don't see where Palin said anything about seeing things from her house.
