Re: common historical myths

Sarah Palin said she could see Russia from her house, so many people continue to believe it, and associate the statement with the former vice presidential candidate from Alaska. Again, the confusion stems from an interview in which then-Governor Palin stated that there were parts of Alaska where people could actually see Russia. She said this in answer to a question about her experience in foreign policy.

A few nights later, the popular comedienne Tina Fey said the now famous, “I can see Russia from my house,” while imitating the candidate on Saturday Night Live. Governor Palin’s actual answer was admittedly not a good one. She could have spoken more articulately about the fact that she had to deal with two international borders. However, what is most remembered (even by intelligent people) is the line from SNL rather than what the real Palin said.

Sarah Palin pehle se aisi thi ya Zardari se milne k baad aisi ho gai?
