Stephen Colbert defended Sarah Palin and her Paul Revere gaffe by showing us how Revere could have ridden a horse while ringing a bell and firing multiple warning shots from a front-loading musket.
And because Wikipedia locked down their Paul Revere page after Palin's supporters attempted to alter it in her favor, Colbert urged his viewers to go to Wikipedia's page for "bells" instead.
COLBERT: Unfortunately, the hardcore fact addicts at Wikipedia have undone the changes and locked Paul Revere's page. Which is why I want all of you to go to the Wikipedia page for "bells" and make sure it reads, "Bells: Used by Paul Revere to warn the British that hey, you're not going to succeed in taking our guns. USA! USA!"
