The reports that Sarah Palin didn't know the parties in NAFTA or that Africa is a continent and not a nation are obviously lies. At the same time, who would believe that Joe Biden, he with an IQ of 146, would have thought that FDR was President in 1929, or that he believed there was commercial television that year. Or, that Katie Couric was also unaware that these things were not true. In Katie's case, I guess we can cut her some slack since she is a TV personality, not a real journalist. But, we should expect better from a guy who has been in the Senate as long as Biden. But, perhaps the media cut Joe some slack also since he sometimes confuses his biography with that of Neil Kinnock.
