There is only one way to prove yourself:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin fired back on Friday against post-election claims by aides to Republican presidential candidate John McCain that she thought Africa was a country, not a continent, calling the anonymous sources "jerks."
Palin, McCain's running mate in their unsuccessful White House campaign, told CNN the allegation "is not true." She said the leaks could have come from people who helped her with preparation for her debate against Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden.
She said she remembered having conversations during debate preparation about Africa and the North American Free Trade Agreement.
A Fox News report cited unidentified campaign sources who said Palin did not know Africa was a continent and could not name the three countries in NAFTA -- the United States, Canada and Mexico.
"I think if there are allegations based on questions or comments that I made in debate prep about NAFTA or about the continent versus the country when we talk about Africa there, then those were taken out of context, and that is cruel and mean-spirited, it's immature, it's unprofessional, and those guys are jerks," Palin said.
It's not fair and it's not right," she said.
She also described accusations that she spent exorbitant amounts of money on clothes for the campaign as "sexist."

I get so sick of the -ist words. It is not sexist because if a male candidate spent $150,000 on clothes, people would say the same things about it.
She didn't say the accusations were untrue.
where do all of obama's millions in campaign contributions go now? just asking...
I would be very surprised if it wasn't all spent.
i want receipts!!!
it must have been like in brewsters millions when he had to spend all that loot by midnight...
So does the FEC. They watch over this stuff pretty closely. The most likely destination for any unspent Obama funds will be Hillary Clinton's campaign debt or the coffers for the Obama re-election campaign. They can basically be used for another campaign or donated to charity.i want receipts!!!
cool, thanks for the facts Manny!
She said the other 49 states needed to follow Alaska's lead on equal treatment of women. WTF?
he puts it in his pocket and then gives it to people to get to vote his way later
McNasty's team characterizing pitbull as a hillbilly prima donna is confirmed.
Ever hear of google?cool, thanks for the facts Manny!
Look at you sheep.
Mic e Obama who has been wearing $1200 dresses the entire ing time goes on Leno and bashes Palin's expensive clothes and all the kiddies laugh. What a bunch of idiots.
Dude....youre happily ignorant, arent you?
My best guess, his surplus goes to the DNC political warchest to be spent as needed in 2010.
Palin is a moron...move on.
Her 15 minutes are up.

You cant fix stupid.
I'll bet she buys her own. Matt Drudge was probably spending 24/7 looking for a DNC or campaign tie in to her wardrobe. Did you see anything on his site?
I don't think anyone cares how expensive Palin's clothes are, just where the money came from.
, how many times is this dunce going to play the sexism and baised media cards?
Yeah, right.
No one watches, or laughs at, Jay Leno.
I watch Jay Leno on a regular basis and his monologue is funny as .
Yes -- I'm laughing my ass off at you.
True enough. She's loaded.
