"Boston University history professor Brendan McConville said, “Basically when Paul Revere was stopped by the British, he did say to them, ‘Look, there is a mobilization going on that you’ll be confronting,’ and the British are aware as they’re marching down the countryside, they hear church bells ringing — she was right about that — and warning shots being fired. That’s accurate.”"
It doesn't pass YOUR smell test because it wasn't a flaming left-winger who said it.
If, uhhh, Obama had said it, you would be saying "Oh, see how smart he is! He gave us a lesson in history! That's why we elected him! He's the smartest President the USA has ever had! Ohhhh, ohhhh."
And then all of you, including Chis Matthews, would have had a mass orgasm.
