Quote of the Day: Palin on Russia

Neil Richard Leslie | September 26, 2008

"'We have trade missions back and forth. We-- we do-- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to-- to our state." Sarah Palin, Governor of Alaska and Republican vice-presidential nominee.

Palin was quoted in an interview for CBS speaking Thursday about her foreign policy experience and the proximity of Russia to Alaska.
