From Sarah Palin's recent interview with Katie Couric:
We have trade missions back and forth, we do. It's very important when you consider even national-security issues with Russia. As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right next to, they are right next to our state.
Know what? That reminds me of another vice president, though we had to wait until after the election for this gem:
Hawaii has always been a very pivotal role in the Pacific. It is in the Pacific. It is a part of the United States that is an island that is right here.
Y'know, back then they called Quayle an idiot for making idiotic statements like that. Guess we were all a bunch of elitists back then.
