Sarah Palin Relishes Her Vladimir Putin 'Told-Ya-So' Moment

Sarah Palin Relishes Her Vladimir Putin 'Told-Ya-So' Moment

As tensions between Russia and Ukraine continued to heighten, former vice presidential candidate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) took to Facebook to remark how she saw this coming.

Back in October 2008, Palin criticized then-presidential-candidate Barack Obama at a Reno, Nev. campaign rally, for his reaction to Russia's invasion of Georgia.

"After the Russian Army invaded the nation of Georgia, Senator Obama's reaction was one of indecision and moral equivalence, the kind of response that would only encourage Russia's Putin to invade Ukraine next," Palin said at the time.

Palin let it be known on Friday that Foreign Policy delivered a "high-brow" criticism of her comment back then, adding that it was a rare "Told-Ya-So" moment for her.
