Yeah, She's Ready: Palin Links Iraq to 9/11 at Deployment Ceremony

My jaw dropped when I saw this article and video.

Yesterday, at a deployment ceremony for an Iraq-bound brigade of soldiers that included her son, sophomore Alaska Governor and McCain Vice-Presidential running mate, Sarah Palin, made statements linking fighting in Iraq to fighting those behind the 9/11 terror attacks.

My Gd... Even the Incompetent-In-Chief himself, George W. Bush finally acknowledged that Iraq had nothing whatsoever to do with the planning of or carrying out of the horrific attacks on September 11, 2001.

Someone should ask Palin if she's even aware of what country the majority of the hijackers came from... and if she can find that country on a map.

(Psst... Don't tell her... 15 of the 19 received their Visas in Saudi Arabia.)

Yeah, she's ready to be Vice President...
... Like I'm ready to be a brain surgeon!

Peace.

From: thinkprogress.org/At Son's Troop Deployment Ceremony, McCain VP Candidate Palin Links 9/11 To Iraq.

On the seventh anniversary of the terror attacks, Alaska Governor and McCain vice-presidential running mate Sarah Palin linked the Iraq war to the attacks of September 11, 2001, "telling an Iraq-bound brigade of soldiers that included her son that they would 'defend the innocent from the enemies who planned and carried out and rejoiced in the death of thousands of Americans.'" "America can never go back to that false sense of security that came before September 11, 2001," said Palin at the deployment ceremony.

As the Washington Post's Anne Kornblut points out, "The idea that Iraq shared responsibility with al-Qaeda for the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, once promoted by Bush administration officials, has since been rejected even by the president himself."
