Palin Apparently Unaware that the Russians are Currently in Alaska
Too funny:
DOVER, New Hampshire (CNN) - The campaign of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin said the Alaska governor was unaware of a visit by Russian energy officials to Anchorage on Monday.
Eight high-level officials from Gazprom, Russia's state-controlled energy conglomerate, traveled to Anchorage earlier this week to meet with the Alaska Department of Natural Resources and the chief executive of ConocoPhillips to discuss energy projects and the possibility of expanding into new markets.
The meeting on Alaskan soil comes at a time of chilly relations between Russia and the United States following Russia's invasion of Georgia in August. Both Palin and John McCain have been critical of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on the campaign trail, and Palin raised eyebrows last month in an interview by saying that Putin "rears his head" by dispatching Russian jets into Alaska's airspace.
Hey, that's unfair! Doesn't everyone know that the McCain campaign is in charge of Alaska now?

"Governor Palin's current physical proximity to Russia has changed by thousands of miles therefore, her expertise in foreign affairs is out of range. We're sorry for the inconvenience and hope to have said expertise up and running as soon as she returns to Wasilla."
