As she continued to rally her base and slam the media and Obama, Palin accidentally slipped up on the address of the White House, saying it's located at "1400 Pennsylvania Avenue." The actual address is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

I'm sorry, but if this were the worst thing to fall out of a politician's lips, I would be really damned excited. Oh no she got an address wrong! Now if she got the stances on all the awful ways in which Government encroaches on our daily lives, robs us of money and opportunity, and makes criminals out of everyone... if she only got all of that right... we'd be in business.

How long have some on the Right been hung up on "57 states" now?

I know. It's idiocy. It's worth a laugh at the moment, but it isn't really the worst thing about any of these people. It's like making fun of Hillary's pant suits or Santorum's name. These are people who will murder under the banner of pride and "US interests" while lining pockets and blaming everyone else.

Who cares?

This sounds a lot like the people we used to disdain who voted for politicians based on their hairstyle.

Yeah I don't really care about this or any other "gaffes". I care more about policy and overall Palin is pretty good - although I don't like her position as a war hawk. Wish she would have run for Senate. I think she would be a useful ally there, just like Cruz. Unfortunately, foreign policy is where we would part, just like with Cruz.

Although, to be honest, I have found Sarah is just in politics for her own personal benefit, so I definitely don't trust her.

But keep in mind, none of what I just said has anything to do with this gaffe, which as I mentioned, I don't care about.

Pretty sure that not very many on Ron Paul Forums have obsessed over the 57 State thing.

LOL I was going to say just "who cares?" but her doing this picture actually earned her a few cool points with me. :p

Sounded right to me also.

If I'd have been there I would have known the White House she was talking about anyway.

What does this matter anything at all? Who really memorizes such trivial information, such as addresses to government buildings? Especially, such a minor slip up as getting a few numbers incorrect. Where is the White House located? It is in D.C. on Pennsylvania Ave. You can’t miss it really, it’s the only overly large white colored mansion, surrounded by wrought iron gating, it has a helicopter sitting on its vastly expansive plush green lawn, with an organic garden off to the side; it is located right between the huge phallus and vaginal canal idols, and Albert Pike Freemason’s Headquarters, it sits right at the very base of a gigantic street pentagram.

Getting an address slightly off as a private citizen is one thing, failing to readily state the correct numbers of these United States while running for PRESIDENT of that very nation is entirely another thing, in fact it is a Caitlin Upton 2007 Teen USA level gaff (her reply to this ironically relatable question: “Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can’t locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is?”):


”I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, uh, people out there in our nation don’t have maps and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and, I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, or, uh, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future [for our children].”

“President Obama” is the intellectual equivalent of a Miss Upton, Mme. Palin however, is not so at all.

[Carlybee]

Not really. As I said earlier, it's worth a laugh or two, but that's not where the media and average voter go with this. Many of them would vote elsewhere because of something like this (or her alleged "I can see Alaska from my yard" quote, etc.) and that's a problem. It's a fragment of a rumor of a distortion of a superficial thing.

And hell, even compared to some of the other dumb shit she actually HAS done, this is an error in a number. This isn't some brawl where she tries to pull the "don't you know who I am?!?" card or anything --- now THAT would be funny and telling.

[Dr.3D]

At least she didn't say, "10 Downing street."

I'm honestly surprised that she didn't recite the address of her leader at the משרד ראש הממשלה‎

[PaleoPaul]

Well, in all fairness, 1400 Pennsylvania Avenue is the closest that this airheaded bubble brain will ever get to the White House.
