Fixed Noise commentator just made a shocking statement about Palin's Foreign Policy experience
FOX News comentator said she had Foreign policy experience because Alaska is next to Russia.

Well, partially. Alaska's next to the Behring Strait, which is next to Russia. Does Canada count as foreign policy experience?

By that note, Napolitano and Richardson are Mensa members of Foreign Policy.


CHRIST, NOT EVEN PLASTIC MAN CAN STRETCH THAT FAR!!!!

2. Following That Logic
If a person lives next door to a doctor, does that give him medical experience?
If a person lives next door to a lawyer, does that make her a legal expert?

You get the idea. Faux Noise of course is packed with shameless shills for the Conswervative agenda.

4. And we aren't even in the Cold War, either!
There has to come a time when these arrogant right-wingers overreach. They can't seriously expect the American public to continue swallowing the copious and ever-expanding amounts of bullshit they keep serving - even if it is delivered on golden platters.

But then again, who was it that said no one ever went broke overestimating the stupidity of average person?

6. Didn't a bunch of German Tourists surprise her this past Summer?
I mean they just wandered into Port and landed?

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/nation_world/20080820_There_s_more_coast_to_guard_in_Alaska.html

BARROW, Alaska - It's not that easy for hundreds of outsiders to sneak up on Barrow, considering how the northernmost town in the United States has neither a port nor a road. Visitors pretty much have to arrive on a big noisy plane.
Which is why nearly all residents of this historic Inupiat Eskimo community were surprised last fall when they woke up to find 400 German tourists walking around town. How did they get here?

9. Hey, don't forget that just over the Pole there there's all that Viking
territory, too. Lots of history there...

The woman surely deserves a Nobel!

11. by that thinking, I must be an EXPERT on foreign policy
and therefore much more qualified to be VP than Palin - after all, I lived in Germany for 15 years and have traveled to more than 30 countries. Actually, on foreign policy, I probably AM better VP material than Palin.

13. Minnesota is right next to Canada, and I'm older than Palin.
Does that mean I have more foreign policy experience than she does?
