Whatever introduction I might write for this story, I can’t do it justice.

Suffice it to say that it’s a little complicated — and pretty funny.

Check HERE first, and then HERE and HERE.

Lets see, Sarah Palin doesn’t know that Africa is a continent and Barack Obama is a Muslim. Sounds like the moral of the story is-take your “news” with a grain of salt and depend on multiple sources that have an established history of credibility.

I still have not read anything credible to suggest palin actually knew Africa was not a country but a continent. Even in her initial \"denials\" she never forcefully said \"ridiculous, of course I know and always knew what every 3rd grader knows: Africa is a continent.\" Since she has no idea what newspapers or magazines she reads, didn\’t know the 3 neighboring members of NAFTA, it isn\’t hard for me to believe she is, in fact, that stupid. Either way, this caribimbo is not ready for prime time.
