Korean allies'
BY Aliyah Shahid
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Oops, she did it again.
Sarah Palin made her latest verbal gaffe on Wednesday, claiming North
Korea is one of America's allies on Glenn Beck's radio show when asked
how she'd handle the recent escalation between the two Koreas.
"This speaks to a bigger picture here that certainly scares me in
terms of our national security policy," the former vice presidential
candidate said on Wednesday. "But obviously we've gotta stand with our
North Korean allies."
The host corrected her. "South Korea," Beck said.
"Eh, yeah. And we're also bound by prudence to stand with our South
Korean allies, yes," Palin responded.
The communist North unleashed an artillery barrage on a South Korean
island on Tuesday, killing four people, including two civilians. It's
increased tensions in the heavily-armed region.
The latest verbal slip is just one of several the former, half-term
Alaska governor has made since appearing on the national stage. In
July, she was slammed for using the made-up word "refudiate" and in
August for using the phrase "cackle of rads."
Palin, who is rumored to make a run for President in 2012, also has
been criticized for her lack of knowledge on foreign policy.
In 2008, she infamously declared Alaska is "right over the border"
from Russia, in explaining why her home state's proximity to the
country gives her foreign policy experience.
