Really?....I mean really??......No grasping at straws there.

Even when she's right she is still a redneck, hick, dumb hillbilly ******. Goes to show you liberals have such a disdain for her and they probably don't even know why. Other then their puppet masters told them to be angry at her I have yet to hear one solid reason from the left on their utter hate for her. And no "she's such an dumb hick" isn't a reason. What have she done?, I mean it's not like she dropped the ball and 4 Americans died under her and when questioned by it said "what difference does it make?"....so again, what has she done?

The left has always suffered from an especially severe case of Confirmation Bias.

So far Palin is wrong. Russia has not brought "Kiev to heel". In fact, quite the opposite is true. Russia has merely asserted itself in defense of its base and large ethnic population is a very small part of Urkraine. And they have done that because they have lost influence and control in greater Ukraine. It remains to be seen whether Russia takes any action to "bring Kiev to heel" as Palin suggested. But for now, Russia has merely acted in a very limited way to protect its vital interests in the area.

Sorry, "Sarah Palin warned that if Senator Barack Obama were elected president, his "indecision" and "moral equivalence" may encourage Russia's Vladimir Putin to invade Ukraine.". She did NOT say in 1 year, 2 years or 6 years.

The last I checked he is STILL the President.

Well, Palin is the expert of Russia. After all, she can see Russia from her house.

The fact that YOU don't care has NO bearing on ANY other American.

Actually, she did. It was liberal interviewers who didn't know. And still don't.

Clue: It was a spur-of-the moment comment made by Krauthammer. No more, no less.

Now you know.

She predicted the present scenario back in 2008. The striped-pants crowd, as Rush Limbaugh calls them, reacted with derision. Foreign Policy editor Blake Hounshel, now with Politco.com,l said
I think anyone could see the potential for problems in Ukraine, as Crimea was traditionally a separate state and Ukraine itself is divided down the middle in terms of population. It didn't take a genius to see the potential for trouble, just as it didn't need a genius to see the potential for problems in the Balkans.

Here's a prediction - Belgium might sPlit in to two countries, as it's a country made up of two peoples who speak different languages.

There has been mass political unrest in the Ukraine since 2002. Palin was 6 years late to that party.

I predicted that Russia would eventually invade Ukraine back in the early 90s after the Soviet Union broke up. a few years years later, in a Poly Sci class, a classmate did a presentation on the potential for Russia to try to recapture its most valuable allies and former Soviet satellites if said countries destabilzed.

Maybe we should have been vice president, too. We're a bunch of freakin' Nostadami!
