Something That You Said or Implied Makes Me Doubt You
The Palin Parade of Fun keeps on marching! (St. Patrick's Day edition)
I wrote the other day that a Palin spokeswoman said trips to Germany, Kuwait and Ireland made up her foreign travel.
Two details worth clarifying:
The Ireland trip was a refueling stop on her trip to military installations in Germany and Kuwait, spokeswoman Maria Comella said.
And she's also visited Canada, another spokesman, Ben Porritt, says.
Begob!
The Palin spokesperson does not go far enough. If flying over countries counts too I get to poke a bunch more pins into my wall map. GO SARAH!

Maybe the fuel in question was Guinness?

Hello from over here!
You'll find all the info on Palin in Ireland on the website of the Irish blogger who questioned Palin's trip.

Look, everyone's occasionally guilty of padding their resume. You know, "Managed and coordinated large staff" translates to "Was line manager at Denny's". Okay, everyone's entitled to a bit of that as far as I'm concerned.
But using a fucking refueling stop to say you visited a country? This is even sillier than the whole "Alaska borders Russia" thing.

I fucked an Iranian, so that must make me a Middle East expert!

I had some General Tso's chicken last night. Let me tell you how we can reduce the trade deficit with our Asian friends.

Palin's been to Houston's NASA headquarters (to use their lobby restroom, it's true; but she was there), and saw actual Moon rocks on display.
I believe this qualifies Palin not only to orchestrate America's manned space efforts, but to be the sole representative of planet Earth in any and all future contact with extraterrestrials. Such as Joe Lieberman.
