Pigs Fly Through a Frozen Hell: LA Times Admits Sarah Palin was Right About Paul Revere

Pigs Fly Through a Frozen Hell: LA Times Admits Sarah Palin was Right About Paul Revere

Political blogger Andrew Malcolm is often the only columnist I read at the LA times. Generally speaking, he writes with an intellectual honesty that is all but extinct in the mainstream media, especially among political reporters.

Today, just after Hell froze over, pigs were seen flying over the West Wing. Monkeys flew out of Joe Biden’s butt. And the LA Times published an honest story about Sarah Palin.

You know how Sarah Palin said Paul Revere warned the British? Well, he did. Now, who looks stupid?

The well-known fable is Revere’s late-night ride to warn fellow revolutionaries that….

…the British were coming. Less known, obviously, is the rest of the evening’s events in which Revere was captured by said redcoats and did indeed defiantly warn them of the awakened militia awaiting their arrival ahead and of the American Revolution’s inevitable victory.

Palin knew this. The on-scene reporters did not and ran off like Revere to alert the world to Palin’s latest mis-speak, which wasn’t.

Never thought I’d live to see the day. Thanks to prolific Hillbuzz commenter cjwk for the heads-up.
