AP Jumps on Palin for ‘North Korean Allies’ Gaffe

WASHINGTON (AP) — Sarah Palin is drawing criticism from around the world after declaring that the United States has to stand with “our North Korean allies.”
Palin’s gaffe, made Wednesday during an interview on Glenn Beck’s syndicated radio show, was quickly corrected by her host. But it drew immediate fire from liberal bloggers, who cited it as an example of the 2008 vice presidential candidate’s lack of foreign policy expertise.
Newspapers in Asia and Europe are repeating the criticism. The Times of India says Palin “did it again,” while London’s Daily Mail says she “may want to brush up on her geography.”
The conservative U.S. website The Weekly Standard came to Palin’s defense, pointing out that “she correctly identified North Korea as our enemy literally eight seconds before the mix-up.”

Posted on November 25, 2010 at 10:15amPeople who listen to the Associated Press (Democrat & Republican) have let the situation on the Korean Pennisula get out of control but when Sarah Palin makes a misstatement that she corrects quicly (she did state we must support our allies in the Korean pennisula), the establishment types who have screwed this country up so much in the last two decades laugh. I suppose it is good that they laugh because these Losers would cry at their own record.

Posted on November 25, 2010 at 11:25amThe point is that this was her response to a potential policy question regarding a then-active situation in Russia. Her response should have just been “None Charlie.”
GIBSON: “What insight into Russian actions, particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of the state give you?”
PALIN: “They’re our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.”

Something that irritates me about most of the interviews on all of these shows, is that they allow so little time for an answer from the person who is asked the question, that almost everyone comes off looking like they are running a relay race. They talk so fast to get their point in, that a lot of times you don’t hear or digest all the words. My husband complains all the time about not being able to understand them. This isn’t just in this interview, it happens in all of the newscasts, no matter the Network or Cable show. I often say “give them time to answer!!!”

Posted on November 25, 2010 at 11:05amThe above answers are correct but I believe the biggest reason is one that is unseen in the spiritual realm and not picked up on by many. She is a Christian that is not afraid to talk about her faith. It’s a spiritual thing. I know that most people don’t even recognize the real reason they hate her. They just do and they have to come up with petty little accuses for their hatred. They have to make up lies about her. And I have heard some doosies. If she had done any one of the things I have heard her accused of, she would be in prison. People get uncomfortable when someone talks about spiritual things. I wonder how many people are uncomfortable just reading this post?

Governor Palin Stresses Need for Strong Missile Defense Capability
April 6, 2009, Juneau, Alaska – Responding to the missile test by North Korea, Governor Sarah Palin today reaffirmed Alaska’s commitment to protecting America from rogue nation missile attacks.
“I am deeply concerned with North Korea’s development and testing program which has clear potential of impacting Alaska, a sovereign state of the United States, with a potentially nuclear armed warhead,” Governor Palin said. “I can’t emphasize enough how important it is that we continue to develop and perfect the global missile defense network. Alaska’s strategic location and the system in place here have proven invaluable in defending the nation.”

And to my North Korea, well, we’re not gonna reward bad behavior and we’re not gonna walk away and we do need to press China to do more to improve pressure on North Korea.”

This kind of vicious liberal hatred only motivates me to get out and work harder during the 2012 election, They are digging their own political graves.

Posted on November 25, 2010 at 6:11pmso, let me ask you all……….if a north korean, and a south korean, both knocked on your door for help, which one would you help? The south Korean you say? But then let me ask this of you……….How do you know which one is from where???? Do they wear a flag on their heads?
North Koreans have family in the south………how do you know she wasn’t talking about the oppressed “NORTH KOREANS” who want their FREEDOM????????????
Sure, she sould have just been thinking ahead of herself, and trully stuffed up…..but, who cares…………You’ve got 57 states, and for the first time in history, FLOTUS is proud to be an american……..
America was a mean country in 2008, remember?

I’m supremely amazed at how much the left fears Sarah. This tells me she could beat Obama no problem!

Posted on November 25, 2010 at 10:18pmNo wonder! This is what libs and dems and communists always do – mocking people they disagree with, perverting their words and exploiting their evident “slip of a tang”. Bush As 99.9% of all media in the world are leftist or extreme leftist (communist or Muslim), no surprise they did not miss the opportunity here also to present another “proof” of Sara Paline’s “illiteracy”. They mocked G.W. Bush portraying him as an “idiot”. They are doing the same again for Sara Palin. Where they were in 2008 when Obama, during his interview on his presidential campaign trail, said that “he’s already campaigned in 58 states, 2 more left for him to go”. He hates this country so much that no wonder, he did not bother memorizing how many states are there. Apparently, graduating Harvard did not help him either. I did not see any media uttered a word on this outrages fact!

A Thanksgiving Message to All 57 States
My fellow Americans in all 57 states, the time has changed for come. With our country founded more than 20 centuries ago, we have much to celebrate – from the FBI’s 100 days to the reforms that bring greater inefficiencies to our health care system. We know that countries like Europe are willing to stand with us in our fight to halt the rise of privacy, and Israel is a strong friend of Israel’s. And let’s face it, everybody knows that it makes no sense that you send a kid to the emergency room for a treatable illness like asthma and they end up taking up a hospital bed. It costs, when, if you, they just gave, you gave them treatment early, and they got some treatment, and ah, a breathalyzer, or an inhalator. I mean, not a breathalyzer, ah, I don’t know what the term is in Austrian for that…
Of course, the paragraph above is based on a series of misstatements and verbal gaffes made by Barack Obama (I didn’t have enough time to do one for Joe Biden). YouTube links are provided just in case you doubt the accuracy of these all too human slips-of-the-tongue. If you can’t remember hearing about them, that’s because for the most part the media didn’t consider them newsworthy. I have no complaint about that. Everybody makes the occasional verbal gaffe – even news anchors.
Obviously, I would have been even more impressed if the media showed some consistency on this issue. Unfortunately, it seems they couldn’t resist the temptation to turn a simple one word slip-of-the-tongue of mine into a major political headline. The one word slip occurred yesterday during one of my seven back-to-back interviews wherein I was privileged to speak to the American public about the important, world-changing issues before us.
If the media had bothered to actually listen to all of my remarks on Glenn Beck’s radio show, they would have noticed that I refer to South Korea as our ally throughout, that I corrected myself seconds after my slip-of-the-tongue, and that I made it abundantly clear that pressure should be put on China to restrict energy exports to the North Korean regime. The media could even have done due diligence and checked my previous statements on the subject, which have always been consistent, and in fact even ahead of the curve. But why let the facts get in the way of a good story? (And for that matter, why not just make up stories out of thin air – like the totally false hard news story which has run for three days now reporting that I lobbied the producers of “Dancing with the Stars” to cast a former Senate candidate on their show. That lie is further clear proof that the media completely makes things up without doing even rudimentary fact-checking.)
“Hope springs eternal” as the poet says. Let’s hope that perhaps, just maybe, they might get it right next time. When we the people are effective in holding America’s free press accountable for responsible and truthful reporting, then we shall all have even more to be thankful for!
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

You know, kinda, uh-uh, um like, uh-uh, Obama’s gaffs when his brain (oops, mean teleprompter) fails. Get over it, unless you just didn’t understand what she meant to say, and then I guess that makes you an AP reporter.

Posted on November 26, 2010 at 10:19amWhat a ridiculous non-story by the left. Just as “non-a-story” as the one the right has made about FLOTUS talking about holiday pie-eating. Just ridiculous and a waste of time; and what’s more: totally predictable. Each side is equally lame in doing this.
I heard Sarah’s flub on the radio as it happened while in the car with my son; we both just looked at each other and laughed realizing full-well Sarah had just momentarily misspoken. BIG DEAL. I knew, however, it was only a matter of time before it hit the blog-waves.

We darn near elected the idiot president in 2000. (0f course Bush cheated) It would seem to me a few gaffs would enhance her resume.

Posted on November 27, 2010 at 12:44amThe lame street media is in attack mode once again. They overlook the corruption taking place in government, and hide the truth from us,and then jump at a simple error made by Sarah Palin. They are losing their credibility, more and more ,with every word they print. It’s no wonder readership is down.
