In New England, it’s “one if by land, two if by sea.” (And on the Patriots, Tom Brady to Wes Welker equals “six if by air”). At least that’s what we were taught in school. You remember the story of Paul Revere from elementary school?
That whole “the redcoats are coming” bit. Sarah Palin does not.
Or she remembers it as Revere somehow warning the British, instead of the American colonists. And what he was warning them about was our “freedom” (whatever that means) and the second amendment guaranteeing our right to bear arms- even though the Constitution wasn’t drafted until more than a decade after his ride.
Yes, indeed the summer lull for sports is really here, so let’s fill it with more media gaffes and hilarious segments from current events/news stories to overcompensate for the dearth in sports news.
We’ll keep doing this until September.
That was funny wasn’t it?
Here’s the quote again. Bells??? WTF? There were no bells, he was trying to get colonist militia ready, why would they/he want/need bells? It’s not Christmas time.
He who warned the British that they weren’t be taking away our arms, by ringing those bells and making sure as he’s riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be secure and we were going to be free
During the ’08 Presidential campaign, the funniest woman alive, Tina Fey did her dead-on lampoon of the unintentionally funniest woman alive (Palin) by sometimes not even changing a single word of her quotes. A couple times on SNL, Fey would literally just take Palin’s incoherent explanation of economic issues as her comedic dialogue. Her butchering was funny enough.
Palin isn’t even running for president. Her bus tour is just attention-whoring, or trying to build up steam for a run at the Arizona senate. Although she denies the property she purchased in that state is for this purpose. We’ll see. Either way, this is still funny.
