But she's not (right)! She's making it up, trying to cover up for an error a 5th grader wouldn't make.

I'm just wondering if you happened to read this;

Massachusetts Historical Society: Online Collections

Quote:
I told him; and aded, that their troops had catched aground in passing the River, and that There would be five hundred Americans there in a short time, for I had alarmed the Country all the way up.
Quote:
"A townsman remembered that 'repeated gunshots, the beating of drums and the ringing of bells filled the air.'.... Along the North Shore of Massachusetts, church bells began to toll and the heavy beat of drums could be heard for many miles in the night air."
Seems Palin knows her US history better than some on here.

I'm thinking.....no.

Oh, I'd watch it with the insults. Surely you can discuss this without stooping to that?

Oh, come on! It has been pointed out to you and your crowd at least a dozen times that the sentence you quoted is what happened after Revere and his friends did the warning with the lights! Please be intellectually honest enough to acknowledge that!

Where is the insult Sanrene? Pointing out that your bias towards liberals and the media which is obvious with each and every post, is NOT an insult its an Opinion that I as well as all others on these boards have the Freedom to express. If the Mods feel that your so called THREAT which I could care less about merits a deletion or infraction have at it. Just make sure you refrain from from providing an Opinion going forward.

Back to the topic. Once again, your bias towards the liberal media have clouded your recognition that FOX NEWS also called Palin on her inaccurate account. Are you saying FOX is now Liberal or they get a pass?

Even broken clocks are right twice a day-I bet it was a case of her bungling her facts and that there just happens to be this obscure account that someone who actually knows how to research history found- I doubt she would have known this small detail about Revere-

This is beginning to feel like a birther thread. The deniers just keep repeating, over and over again, lies and half-truths; people debunk them, and they continue all over again. Please read the entire account by Paul Revere. AFTER his group did the warning with the lights, he was stopped by the police. That's when he made the quote in sanrene's most recent post. AFTER, AFTER, AFTER!

The funniest part of this all is, there blaming the liberal media for telling her she was wrong when in FACT even FOX is shaking their heads in disbelief.

The fact is she knew it.
If it was recent, than it was a good education and she comprehended it well enough to remember it.
