PALIN THE UNINFORMED, PART XXX

Word is out that the McCain campaign is arranging for Palin to meet some world leaders this week at the UN. After the meeting, her bots will proclaim PALIN HAS FOREIGN POLICY EXPERIENCE, SHE'S MET WITH 3 FOREIGN LEADERS!!!!!

Of course, this ruse is a pathetic joke. Meeting 3 or 4 world leaders just weeks before an election does not make her, or anyone, a foreign policy wonk. They're putting more lipstick on the pitbull hoping her fans keep up the nutty idea that this woman is remotely prepared to be the next vp, never mind possibly a president.

Also, she doesn't know what she's talking about, as usual. She just pulls stuff out of her cramped, little mind hoping no one follows up on it and tells the truth. See below:

When asked by ABC News' Charlie Gibson whether she had ever met a foreign head of state, Palin responded, "I have not and I think if you go back in history and if you ask that question of many vice presidents, they may have the same answer that I just gave you. But, Charlie, again, we've got to remember what the desire is in this nation at this time. It is for no more politics as usual and somebody's big, fat resume maybe that shows decades and decades in that Washington establishment, where, yes, they've had opportunities to meet heads of state."


In fact, every vice president over the last 30 years had met with foreign heads of state before being elected.
