Sarah Palin Uses an Old Persian Proverb in Her Acceptance Speech

Sarah Palin Uses an Old Persian Proverb in Her Acceptance Speech

Mrs. Palin quoted the old Persian proverb, “a ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for”; at least I think it is Persian. Anyway the reason I mention it at all is that I would say,”...maybe that is true, but that is what harbors are for! At least the GOP took the wind out of the sails of Barack Osama’s wonderful speech last night, as all the major channels are gushing about McCain’s pick for vice president.


Authors note: A Google search reveals William Shedd as the one who penned the quote, but I like the old girlfriend (an oil princess from Iran) whom I first heard it from. The translation of her name meant shifting sand, alls that says to me is something not too nice about the GOP. Any who that is my two cents worth.
