Actually on a clear day you can see Russia from Alaska
Only from a few spots, none of which are within hundreds of miles of Palin.

You seem to be confusing Sarah Palin and Tina Fey.

Palin quote from video:
"You can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska."

snopes.com: I Can See Alaska from My House

A little research and you will find you and Sarah are in agreement.

I wonder how many neural short circuits occurred when Sarah Palin went on Saturday Night Live.

Wait, that was Tina all along?

It doesn't matter. Palin's context was deserving of all the crap she got.

My brother asked me a few weeks ago why I have to go through so much security for my job. I told him "do you have ANY idea how close I am to Russia now?"

I spent 7 months of my life last year on that little bump in the road. Wish we could recall all of that hot molten metal we dropped on them.

They were stable with Qaddafi. When are we going to learn?

I was actually impressed with the future Libya dictator. Much smarter than the nutjob friend of O future egypt dictator. In the interview I saw he seemed like he would do a good job running the CIA.

The only way Romney will be able to find out is if President Obama in his second term offers him a ride for some reason.
