Palin has a new twist on Revere’s Ride

Appearing at Boston’s Old North Church, Sarah Palin talked of how Paul Revere warned “the British that they weren't going to be taking away our arms by ringing those bells.”



                       Paul’s Call

Listen, my children, and you shall hear
A brand new version of what Paul Revere
Did during those long-ago fateful nights
When the British troops had us all in their sights.

T’would seem that Sarah might just be re-writing
How it began: all of that blood-shed and fighting
That led to the colonies becoming quite free.
To hear how it ends, we’ll have to listen and see.
