So she was right?
And if it was so easy to be right then, why was President Obama wrong?
And why was being right so easily, readily and quickly mocked?

I actually am hoping that the "better angels" of some of our posters will prevail.

I remember the basics of this happening but I don't recall all the details. How did we handle a few years back when Russia went into Georgia? Was that the same thing, totally different thing? Like I said I remember it happening but I can't recall all the details. Who can help an older guy out here?

I don't recall what she said but if Sarah Palin said Russia was still dangerous I have zero problem acknowledging it, I think it's a MAJOR strategy mistake by putting the spotlight on her for any reason (for the Repub's own good) but hey you know how I feel, the truth is the truth and it doesn't matter to me who says it. We'd be a LOT better off as a nation if we placed more value on the substance and non-spin truth of what was said and didn't even ask who said it.

"After the Russian Army invaded the nation of Georgia, Sen. Obama's reaction was one of indecision and moral equivalence, the kind of response that would only encourage Russia's (Vladimir) Putin to invade Ukraine next."
Bush's wasn't that great.
But there you have it.

I don't give a rat's arse about it being a major strategy mistake. What I'm not impressed by is the constant cut-downs and then the mental gymnastics to keep from acknowledging that she may, just may, have had a better view of all this than y'all's mockery would allow. Why is it so damn hard for folks to say, "you know, maybe I was wrong on that point"? You know the frickin world won't end if you do.
Palin didn't but she's trying really hard to say I told you so though.

One, two, three…time now for more gymnastics explaining how she was wrong.
What's there to do? How is she credible? She couldn't name one major newspaper and you want me to think she had the foresight? If she hadn't spent the last few days saying I told you so I might have considered. The more she's on the airwaves the more she sounds like a sore loser trying to look relevant. If she has any real credence on the situation the cia and nsa would've gone her asap.

I'm not concerned about her. My interest is in you guys.

I already said I would more than happily give her credit for being right about this (if she was), I honestly just don't remember, yay or nay. I will gladly trust your memory on it though. I understand why you're upset at those who insult her and have for years (and I honestly think I've been nicer to her than most) but you'll also remember who else has been saying Putin is a dangerous monster just looking for a place to happen for at least the last decade.
Read the interview transcripts. They're so generic you think she was a robot. No specifics no substance. If she thought she got screwed by the Americans because they thought she was dumb then good for her. I find it annoying she's trying to take the spotlight and do the told ya so thing while our president is trying to fix the problem diplomatically. Read game change and all of her assistants said she had no clue who Anyone was internationally.
I'm sorry you feel she was bullied unwrongly bedell. Hillary is getting railed by Rand over her husband's infidelity two decades ago.
Obama's been bullied since he decided to run for office. Palin wasn't ready for prime time. Her interview with Gibson and Couric were premeditated answers. The genuine answer you got from her was Russia was across the Bering strait and russia is Alaska's neighbor.

Which newspapers do you read?
Uh all of them.

Me? I actually read about as many papers as W said he read while president. I read stuff online sometimes but I have to spend so much time grading some really good and a whole bunch of really crappy student papers I simply don't have the time. I almost never read anything for fun anymore, except what I read on here (now you can see what a wonderful life I live from day to day).
About the most entertaining thing I get to do sometimes is to track down where you guys get your "original" ideas for some of the posts made on here. It's a little scary actually that nobody here listens to or reads any far left or far right sites or listens to any far left or far right personalities, yet somehow they come up with posts that if placed into turnitin.com (something we teachers use when we actually have time to track a paper's real origins) would probably cause the whole damn site to crash, or more likely go up like Hiroshima. I comment on it occasionally but usually I just keep to myself, shake my head, and lament our nation's future.
