"i just wanna rattle off a couple of things that insiders say she just simply didn't know. there were real problems with basic civics: government structures, municipal, state and federal government responsibilities. she didn't know the nations involved with the north american free trade agreement, we're told. we're told she wasn't actually able to name all the countries in north america."it goes on. even bill o'reilly has trouble mustering up any defense of her.
someone who could have been vice-president of the united states couldn't name the countries in north america. i know you don't think you read that correctly, so i'll mention it again: the woman john mccain chose to be his running mate, the woman who would have been, say it with me – a heartbeat away from the presidency – couldn't name the countries in north america.
that's right senator mccain: country first!
(and there's still more, this time from the new york times.)
Though, I do wonder, Tony, just how many people in "real America" know the countries in North America, or that Africa is a continent, or that you can put lipstick on a pig and all that...
ReplyDeleteIt's all well and fine for us Non-Americans to say that, but what about those people who are surrounded on all sides by nothing but Real America?
