I was just clearing this fact up. What she was purported to have said was that Russia was visible from her home. That was NOT true. That was a skit from SNL. There are parts of Russia visible from Alaska. That IS true. I honestly didn't know that and apparently wasn't alone in that. I had forgotten how close we really are to Russia - geographically.

That she tried to parlay that into a broader perspective of National security or "wisdom" was/is ridiculous.
