We wonder if she'll try to “refudiate” this slip-up.

During an appearance on Glenn Beck's radio show Wednesday, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin said North Korea is an American ally. She made the gaffe after Beck asked her opinion about North Korea's attack this week against a South Korean island.

"This speaks to a bigger picture here that certainly scares me in terms of our national security policy. But obviously, gotta stand with our North Korean allies, we're bound to by treaties," she said before Beck interrupted her.

"South Korean allies," he said.

"Yeah," she said, continuing on with her answer saying, "We're also bound by prudence to stand with our South Korean allies."

While it may have just been a slip of the tongue on Palin's part, the gaffe immediately went up on websites like the Huffington Post and other blogs.
