Sarah Revere.

Many of you may be following Sarah Palin's "liberty trail" where Sarah has learned alot about US history... like her account of  Paul Revere's midnight ride...


"He who warned uhh the the, the british that they werent gonna be takin' away our arms, by ringin those bells and makin sure as he's riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were gonna be secure and we were gonna be free."
              
                                   ....Captivating...


      Like many may know, Paul Revere was riding a horse, so he probably didn't ring a bell. "well Longfellow messed up in his poem!"
He did it on purpose, so that the story would fit the poem. Also, He didn't even yell, let alone fire shots. I'm also pretty sure he didn't say that we were secure. Oh Sarah... it's not really a big deal.. but you're the all time patriot? Aren't you? Atleast that's what your tea party fans have led me to believe.
 The fact of the matter is, Sarah Palin took the story of a true hero, and turned it into some, pro-republican, pro-guns blather. 
 

      This story is especially troubling when accounting for the Newsweek article entitled, " What we don't know" , when 1,000 US citizens were given the US citizenship test and 38 percent failed.  19 percent of Americans couldn't even point out independence day on a calender and 29 percent could not name our vice president. How about we give every American this test, and if you fail, you will be deported. Overpopulation problem solved! Haha.

      Also, Sarah Palin stated that it was a "gotcha question" when all the man asked was, "What have you learned so far today?"


So ... Palinites...

 You Betcha!
