A new standard is set!

Every so often (okay more often than I'd like) I come across something so irredeemably stupid that I just have to share it.  It makes me shake my head in disbelief and wonder that anyone can be so ignorant and yet continue to flap her cakehole as if she's insightful.

This is one of those.

GRETA: Governor, last night there was a lot of discussion about the Sputnik Moment the President wants us to have. Do you agree with him? Is this our moment?

PALIN: That was another one of those WTF moments, when he has so often repeated, the Sputnik Moment, that he would aspire Americans to celebrate, he needs to remember that what happened back then with the former communist USSR and their victory and that race to space, yeah, they won, but they also incured so much debt at the time that it resulted in the inevitable collapse of the Soviet Union so I listen to that Sputnik Moment talk over and over again and I think, no we don’t need one of those.

 Translation from SarahSpeak:

Obama said he loves Commies!  Doesn't he know the USSR was communist?  Words, words, something, babble. Collapse. Collapse. Obama loves Commies.  One of those.
