When You Are Afflicted By Intellectual Sloth ...

... this is what comes out of your mouth from your uniformed, ignorant mind:


Palin calls Afghanistan ‘our neighboring country’

palin.gifSpeaking at a San Francisco fundraiser on Sunday, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) “fumbled” while praising U.S. soldiers in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, referring to Afghanistan as a “neighboring country”:

“They are also building schools for the Afghan children so that there is hope and opportunity in our neighboring country of Afghanistan,” she told several hundred supporters at a fundraising event in San Francisco.

Afghanistan borders neither the United States nor Iraq. Asian geography appears equally difficult for Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), who has discussed an imaginary Iraq-Pakistan border.

Update: Yglegias presents a helpful map for Palin and McCain.
Words fail me ...

But I will say this: Q.E.D. once again. And again.

Incompetence, anyone?
