Palin on Ukraine: “Yes-I could see this one from Alaska-I’m usually not one to Told-Ya-So-but I did"

Sarah Palin is saying “Told-Ya-So” on the rising tensions in Ukraine, writing in a Facebook post that she predicted in 2008 Russia would invade the country.

“Yes, I could see this one from Alaska. I’m usually not one to Told-Ya-So, but I did,” Palin wrote Friday.

Palin on Ukraine: I told you so

In the post, Palin says that in 2008, following Russia’s invasion of Georgia, she criticized then-Sen. Barack Obama whose reaction she said “was one of indecision and moral equivalence, the kind of response that for indecisiveness that would only encourage Russia’s [Vladimir] Putin to invade Ukraine next.”

The former Republican vice presidential nominee said she was derided for her comments — which on Friday she called an “accurate prediction”— on foreign policy, making reference to the notable interview during the 2008 election in which she talked about the proximity of Russia and Alaska and was spoofed by Tina Fey on “Saturday Night Live” with the famous line, “I can see Russia from my house!”

...selfish, worthless, disgusting excuse for a human being, I'll never know. Unfortunately, as all the ass-brained comments on CNN.com today prove, they definitely exist.
