Here's the rub with what Palin said. She was historically accurate as Paul Revere did in fact also warn the British. However, I think she just was lucky in that historical fact and misspoke. However Hound, you are not in a position to condemn her for that because you voted for Obama with his many gaffes, not the least of which was claiming to have visited all 57 states. You need to find another justification for your opposition of Palin lest you risk being a hypocrite.

And just for the record, I would not vote for Palin in the primary over the likes of Pawlenty, Romney, Santorum, etc. I like her and we agree on most issues but she would not be my first or even second choice. However, if she were the nominee I would support her 110% because she would be far better as President than the Messiah. But then so would about 25% of the population....

As for Weiner, his personal failings are disgusting but the serial lies and attempts to claim Breitbart was the hacker of the tweets is the reason he should resign. And you can expect his wife to dump his miserable butt once he is drummed out of Congress. However, if history informs us well Dems will circle the wagon and this will enhance his resume. The list of other Dems who have done much worse and are still in Congress is long. They simply have no values or principals upon which to rely to do the right thing.
