Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Bailey?

Her No. 1 Iowa stroker backer:

Can you see Churchill sitting it out? It’s unthinkable. Can you see George Washington in 1776 sitting it out?”


Um, yeah. What do Churchill, Washington and Palin have in common other than brain death?

Could you see Churchill resigning after Tubruk?

Could you see Washington resigning during Valley Forge?

See, rhetoric works better when it is based in analogies that apply to the person you are comparing.

yeah, but all Palin's supporters showed up on the comment thread to 'defend' her 'honor'...

of course it was a 'she can't do any worse than O' defense, so they get points for being dumber than a box of rocks and Palin.
