great - neither McCain nor Palin know geography

Palin calls Afghanistan ‘our neighboring country.’

In slip up, Palin calls Afghanistan “our neighboring country”

She's baaaaaaaaack! And for your bonus moment of zen, Sarah Palin says she went to campaign in Nebraska today not because it was strategically significant or anything - no - she went to Nebraska because she just really wanted to visit Nebraska today. In all fairness, she just got her passport last year, so maybe she thought she wasn't allowed to visit before.

UPDATE: There's more. Now she's calling herself the vice president, and she explained further why she wanted to go to Nebraska with only weeks to go before the election:

“The pundits today on TV—one of them was saying, check out the vice president’s schedule, check out where she’s going — she’s going to Nebraska,” Palin said. “But the pundit was saying the only reason she’d be going there is ‘cause they’re scared, so they gotta go there and shore up votes. And I so wanted to reach into that TV and say no, I’m going to Nebraska because I want to go to Nebraska."

First, she really is an idiot. Second, is it too much to ask that she speak proper English?
