Sarah Palin: "We gotta stand with our North Korean allies" NEW YORK (BNO NEWS) -- A painful slip of the tongue for former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin on Wednesday when she accidentally mixed up North and South Korea during a radio interview. Palin has recently said she is considering a run for the presidency and told ABC News that she believes she can beat Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential elections. On Wednesday, Palin was asked during a radio interview with Glenn Beck how she would handle the current situation on the Korean peninsula. "This is stemming from, I think, a greater problem when we are all sitting around [and] asking; oh no, what are we going to do?" Palin said. "We aren't having a lot of faith that the White House is gonna come out with a strong enough policy to sanction what it is that North Korea is gonna do." But a few seconds later, Palin got the countries mixed up. "But obviously we gotta stand with our North Korean allies," she said. "We are bound to treaties," Palin continued, before Beck corrected her. The mistake set off an immediate firestorm on the Internet. "Please [keep] doing interviews. Each one provides more evidence that you are utterly clueless," one user wrote on Twitter. Others were less critical about the small mistake. "She misspoke, it happens all the time, this is a slip up that can be easily made," another user commented. Palin was U.S. Senator John McCain's vice presidential nominee during the 2008 presidential elections. And while she seemed a good choice at first, reports later indicated that it was very different behind the scene. In the book 'Game Change', political journalists John Heilemann and Mark Halperin said that Palin had to be taken through World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Cold War and the War on Terror. "After the [Republican] convention was over, she still didn't really understand why there was a North Korea and a South Korea," Heilemann said during an interview, while adding that Palin believed Iraq's Saddam Hussein was behind 9/11.

Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Was this heard in all 57 states Owe-bama speaks of? lmao
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
What a dingbat she is.
That's why Fox News is a godsend to her. They do everything they can to protect Rupert's investment. If she's actually stupid enough to run in 2012 I wouldn't be surprised to see her refuse to appear anywhere but Fox. She needs her training wheels on all the time.
ROFLMAO, almost as good as her defense of TARP to a puzzled Katie Couric: That's a normal state for cutesy Katie.

Ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up the economy– Oh, it’s got to be about job creation too. So health care reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions.
On January 3, 2011 the GOP assumes responsibility for deficit spending.
