Imagine if she ran for President?

Actually, it could still happen.

Does anyone else worry about Ms Palin being elected the leader of the free world.

By the way, you may think this is a spoof.

It...is...not...

[ummmm]

OMG, I mean, OMG. I'm speechless...

[Mamyalynne]

Not true.... legs it

[sp1814]

I apologise wholeheartedly. My partner swore it was true.

Must go now...got to pick an argument...

[LazyGun]

Snopes confirms it is a spoof, and reminds readers that the daily currant is a satirical journal.

The scary thing is that this story is actually somewhat believable - Palins grasp of geography has been shown to be shaky, and there were some american commentators who did confuse Chechyna with the Czech Republic...

[Sharingan]

I don't care, it's hilarious xx

[ummmm]

lol...I convinced my family that it was true because you said it was!!!!

[ChuckFickens]

It's probably a more reliable source than the daily mail!

[sp1814]

My guilt and shame knows no bounds.

I hate the Internet...

[ummmm]

Lol :-)

[Gromit]

It... is...a...spoof.

It never fails to amaze the things that people rush to believe on the internet without having scoured the internet to research whether somethings true or not.

If you told me something as wild/big as this the first thing i'd do is scour the internet to try and find it's source, the 2nd would be to see whether it's just a joke/scam and only if it checks out on several reputable sources and the date is not April the 1st will i begin to believe it lastly friends and family who may be interested would be informed.

Has the internet destroyed common sense?

[bazwillrun]

but youd expect everybody else on here to check their sources out though ...wouldnt you !?

youre normally at the front of the queue to dig people out when they get things wrong

MrLomas

It came from a previously impeccable source, who swore it was true.

And ironically, after finding it was a spoof, there was more swearing, but this time, from me!

A very amusing spoof article.
