Palin: Revere family warned British, bin-Laden, Hitler, Hirohito

 

Sarah Palin doesn't back down. She reloads. She provoked a storm of criticism after she described Paul Revere  this way: "He who warned the British that they weren't gonna be takin' away our arms by ringing those bells, and makin' sure as he's riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be sure and we were going to be free, and we were going to be armed."

Now she not only refuses to apologize for her unusual version of history, but is aggressively defending it. She’s told reporters that she is “completely certain” that Revere warned the British based on the intensive study of American history that she started just after the Katie Couric interview.

According to Palin and a recently hired team of historians on her staff, Paul Revere’s warning the British is part of a Revere family tradition. Documents show that Paul Revere VIII, a direct descendent of the famous American patriot, warned Osama Bin Laden that "The SEALS are coming;" Paul Revere V warned Hitler that "D-Day is coming;" and his son, Paul Revere VI warned Emperor Hirohito that "The A-bomb is coming." "Those Revere family people who warned American’s enemies that they weren’t going to be doin’ any more bad stuff as so many of us can be aware and warns in order to give a fair chance by warnin’ whether by ringin’ bells or shootin’ off guns or warning with faxes or emails or web sites or anything else like Tweetin’ or anything so in order for these people to, even though it will do them no good, get a fighting chance, against our freedom, which will anyway succeed," Palin explained.
