In "Game Change": "Palin was not aware there was a difference between North and South Korea

[HipChick]

and has been too media struck to study up since 2008..


She knew nothing. She had to be taken through World War I, World War II, the Cold War, and Palin was not aware there was a difference between North and South Korea. She continued to insist that Iraq was behind 9/11; and when her son was being sent off to Iraq, she couldn’t describe who we were fighting


Now, in fairness to Sarah Palin, she’s got a lot on her plate right now–a book tour, a reality show, and a daughter who landed in third place on Dancing with the Stars–so remembering arcane international details like which country has a lunatic dictator with nuclear weapons and which one has American troops can be difficult.

Maybe it’s time to make some notes on her palm

1. Two Koreas?

The communist one and the ultra-communist Korea Palin can see from her back yard?

2. her lack of awareness and intelligence is apparently endless.

and then there is the fact that she is a young earth creationist. I keep wondering why that is not more widely publicized.

3. Two Koreas is just a theory. Hopefully schools are teaching both points of view.

4. Almost forgot that. Here's the link.

“he still didn’t really understand why there was a North Korea and a South Korea,” Heilemann told the program’s Anderson Cooper. “She was still regularly saying that Saddam Hussein had been behind 9/11.”

5. She'd better tattoo those notes.

Even Sharpies don't last forever.
