"They are also building schools for the Afghan children so that there is hope and opportunity in our neighboring country of Afghanistan." -- Sarah Palin, speaking at a fundraiser in San Francisco, Oct. 5, 2008

The day after Barack Obama won the 2008 presidential election, FOX News reported that the McCain campaign had been greatly concerned with Sarah Palin's lack of "knowledgeability [sic] necessary to be a running mate, a vice president, a heartbeat away from the presidency," and specifically that she "didn't understand that Africa was a continent, rather than a series, a country just in itself."

Once in a while everyone puts their foot in it!
I am sure we could come up with similar ones from just about every prominent politican out there.
