Also they mocked Sarah Palin for making the claim that she could see Russia from Alaska, Sarah Palin was 100% correct, The two Islands are the Big Diomede in the Russian Territory and the Little Diomede Island administered by the United States. The distance between the two Islands is just 3 miles (4.8 kilometers). The Islands shorten the distance between Russia and Alaska.

If I remember right she didn't actually say that, it was a comedy sketch that the Dem media made into a reality. I'm sure that's what someone on here said

You are correct. I also remember that the skit Tellsyouhow mentioned blew this way out of proportion though.
