Palin Was Right about Revere

So Sarah Palin, the dumb Alaskan hick who supposedly doesn't know history has proved the MSM wrong yet again. Well, she was right about the date of the Boston event where patriots dumped tea into the Boston Harbor to revolt about taxation and those on the left that mocked her were wrong. Don't expect an apology from a liberal about something like that. And don't expect an apology from the left now that she's correct...again.

Alas, the MSM and the rest of the left just can't get enough of their baseless attacks. And it appears once again that they also have no grasp of history.
Seriously, it would just kill these people to admit they are wrong and she is right. It would kill them!

Historians agree that Palin was correct. Now, who would know more about history, an actual historian or Brian Williams? You decide. How does anyone "get lucky" by reciting the actual events of history is beyond me.

By the way a couple of comments left at the NewsBusters page, summed up a few things nicely about her "gotcha" comment and how the media treats people who screw up the events of history:

"As far as the "gotcha" question, what she meant there and was clear to me, was that they ask questions just to get her. It doesn't mean that it's a hard question. It means that what ever question they ask her is meant to get her to say something, anything that they can dissect and turn into a Katie Couric moment. Yeah, you can laugh it up and act like she thinks "gotcha" means hard but it doesn't.
Obviously even the question Katie Couric asked wasn't a hard question. Anyone could answer it including Sarah Palin. If someone asks me my favorite band, I'd have to say, there's too many, I can just give you one or a few. She obviously reads and the fact that people insinuated she didn't from that was ridiculous."


and...

"[D]id NBC spend multiple nights, or any night at all, examining the accuracy of Joe Biden's hopelessly mangled inaccurate statement of how "Franklin Roosevelt handled the 1929 stock market crash by going on television with a speech"? Hmmm, they do handle these things differently depending on who they're covering - or not."


And this sums up Brian Williams and NBC's attitude about Palin and any Republican/Conservative...

"He recounted Palin's comments where she mention Revere and bells, then, at the end - couldn't help himself - smirked and reminded everyone that it was - OF COURSE (as in "You know. I know. and everyone else knows - except for this idiot woman") - lanterns - not bells - that were used. Should have been a thought bubble over Williams head: "Huh. Huh. Get it everybody? She's an idiot. That's the entire point of putting this non-news story on the air. See. She said bells. It was lanterns. We hope you hate this woman as much as we do. "
