fiogf49gjkf0d The Los Angeles Times confirms it here
latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2011/06/sarah-palin-says-paul-revere-warned-the-british.html
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.
Suck on that, Palin haters. PLLLLLL!!!!

fiogf49gjkf0d I never faulted Gore for that statement, although his choice of words could have been better.
I never faulted Howard Dean for his often quoted yell. It was right after a primary defeat, and he needed to rally the troups.
It's when they get caught in outright lies, then deny they made such lies that I truly get on someone's case. Such as Bill "I Did Not Have Sex With That Woman" Clinton, and Barney "It's Safe To Invest In Fanny Mae" Frank.

fiogf49gjkf0d Not a bad article. The same article points out that Al Gore did not claim to have invented the Internet, contrary to popular belief. (Gore did push legislation that greatly expanded the Internet, prior to the World Wide Web and HTML.)
