Palin's Paul Revere tale one for the history books, if her followers can rewrite it fast enough.

I caught wind of this unbelievable "controversy" from Twitter, and couldn't help but put this crazy crap on the blog. I don't like giving her publicity, but who would believe this happened if you don't post it? Stuff like this is a fitting substitute while the Onion News Network, on IFC, is on vacation.  

It's insane.....


Littlegreenfootballs: Man, you’ve gotta almost admire the sheer blind dedication of Sarah Palin’s wingnut acolytes.

Now they’re trying like crazy to edit the Wikipedia page for “Paul Revere” to make it match Palin’s botched version of history.  Also see the discussion page for an entertaining exchange between Wikipedia editors and a would-be revisionist. Here comes that ol’ lamestream media again with those “shout-out gotcha questions” — like, “Hey Sarah, remember Paul Revere?”

“Part of his ride was to warn the British that were already there. That, hey, you’re not gonna succeed. You’re not gonna take American arms. You are not gonna beat our own well-armed, uh, persons, uh, individual, private militia that we have. He did warn the British! And, in a shout-out, gotcha type o’ question that was asked of me, I answered candidly, and I know my American history!”
Here's a surprised Chris Wallace giving Palin a chance to a correction, which of course, she defiantly doesn't do:
