Former Alaskan governor and potential 2012 presidential contender Sarah Palin has made a gaffe on a radio show by saying North Korea is a US ally.


I am glad Glenn Beck is aware of the diplomatic relatioon to Pyongyang.

This part made me giggle like a schoolgirl, because to me it read like; "Literally eight seconds before the mix-up, when she was still using her rehearsed replies, she knew that North-Korea was our enemy!"

Did any of you guys, y'know, listen to what she said? Right after the slip she corrected herself.

No, she didn't. She was corrected, BIG DIFFERENCE.

But yeah, it's something minor, that probably won't lead to any consequences. I mean, it's not like someone ever mistakes the country they want to invade...

Honestly, giving Sarah Palin more attention doesn't really solve any problems, it's more like giving needless attention that might have undecideds realizing that she's getting tons of flak.
I don't even like her, but Jesus Christ, at every turn all they do is attack her, and that in turn rallies people further.

Honestly, the media would be better off leaving her alone.

Query: Sarah Palin equals Glenn Beck? Remark (Laconic mode): That would explain a lot.

Ehh. Glenn Beck is more of a hard conservative, while Sarah Palin is more into the whole "We can all just be friends~" deal.
