Though she was mocked for it, Palin actually speculated in 2008 that Russian President Vladimir Putin would be encouraged to invade Ukraine after President Barack Obama’s weak response to the nation invading Georgia.
“After the Russian Army invaded the nation of Georgia, Senator Obama’s reaction was one of indecision and moral equivalence, the kind of response that would only encourage Russia’s Putin to invade Ukraine next,” Palin told Foreign Policy in 2008, “
As Mediaite’s Andrew Kirell points out, conservative websites and personalities are reminding people of the quote.
Palin herself took to Facebook on Friday to remind supporters of her prediction.
“Yes, I could see this one from Alaska. I’m usually not one to Told-Ya-So, but I did, despite my accurate prediction being derided as ‘an extremely far-fetched scenario’ by the ‘high-brow’ Foreign Policy magazine,” she wrote. “Here’s what this ‘stupid’ ‘insipid woman’ predicted back in 2008.”

See? She is not as "stupid" that everyone said she was.

But she's still a dummy.

Sarah is just as smart or smarter than Obama, Kerry, the Bushes (all of them), Pellosi, McDrain, Boehner....
She had a difficult early life and didn't receive an elite education, but she has good instincts and comes out right on most issues. If she was pro choice, pro gay, and pro black the media would admire her grit and perseverance and wouldn't knock her intelligence. Is Kirsten Gillibrand that much smarter than Sarah?
The media and others unfairly pick on Sarah, and it should stop.

I agree.

The Dems are so afraid of Palin, that was the reason they sent their lap dogs in the media to destroy her in 2008. But she is still fighting. And that she's better looking than Mrs. Muslim in the white house.
