Oy.
According to Google Earth, the westernmost tip of Alaska is over 5,000 miles from the fighting in Georgia. Moscow is closer, a mere 4,500 miles away. Even if Palin didn't need glasses, she couldn't see anything that far away. |
Oy indeed...
Josh, luv, think Bering Strait.
Good Lord...while he's working toward that doctorate in evolutionary biology, I hope he takes a few geography courses along the way. |
Oy vey.
