It's going to be a long, long four years...

...if Sarah Palin can't just settle down and get back to shooting meese (mooses, whatever) and forget she was ever on TV. Consider this flight of rhetoric reported by Maureen Dowd and spotted by our alert Midwest bureau chief:



Here’s Palin defending herself on the contention that she got confused about Africa:



“My concern has been the atrocities there in Darfur and the relevance to me with that issue as we spoke about Africa and some of the countries there that were kind of the people succumbing to the dictators and the corruption of some collapsed governments on the continent, the relevance was Alaska’s investment in Darfur with some of our permanent fund dollars.”



And, she concluded, “never, ever did I talk about, well, gee, is it a country or a continent, I just don’t know about this issue.”
