Sarah Palin stands by her new version of American history

From Fox News Sunday:
"You realized you messed up about Paul Revere?" Fox News host Chris Wallace noted in an interview with Palin Sunday.
"You know what, I didn't mess up about Paul Revere. Here is what Paul Revere did. He warned the Americans that the British were coming, the British were coming and they were going to try to take our arms and we have to make sure we were protecting ourselves and shoring up all of our ammunitions and our firearms so they couldn't take it."
Kind of reminds you of a Creationist, doesn't it? In one statement she's taken the aims of today's gun fanatics and changed over two hundreds years of American history into a struggle for that alone. (Crooks & Liars)

Earlier she spouted these gems at her Ellis Island photo-op:
Look closely
“This Statue of Liberty was gifted to us by foreign leaders, really as a warning to us, it was a warning to us to stay unique and to stay exceptional from other countries. Certainly not to go down the path of other countries that adopted socialist policies”
And:
"Lady Liberty is the symbol of unity and friendship we have with other freedom-loving nations. It's also a "warning" of sorts, as France encouraged us to keep democracy alive as the recipient of this gift... basically telling us not to blow it. Thank you for this reminder, France!"
To complete idiots all this makes perfect sense. (Divine Irony)

And she's still writing on her hand.
