Palin Resigns to Accept Post as Lunatic Laureate
I'll try to be brief. People should do whatever they choose. Get married, get divorced. Run for office, resign from office. Volunteer to clean up a highway, run screaming naked down the street. Have your fun, baby, and don't let no one keep you from it.
What people should not do is have their fun, all the while insisting they're doing it for someone else's benefit.
Deep within her rambling and disjointed "announcement" Friday morning, Sarah Palin stated that she's not going to seek reelection as Governor of Alaska. Then, she went on to say she'll be leaving office before her term is up because serving out the term she was elected to serve wouldn't be best for the people who voted her in. In other words, I'm leaving you -- but only because it's the best thing I can do for you.
It's easy to criticize, I know. But today I feel qualified. Because this is the identical excuse I gave to every girlfriend I broke up with in my twenties and thirties. I don't think many of them fell for it back then. I know they've all wised up since.
The question on my mind today is, how many of Sarah's millions of admirers will feel flattered by her most recent selfless and beneficent decision?
You can fool all of the people some of the time.
And you can fool some of the people all of the time.
And you can fool some of the people all of the time.
And you can fool some of the people all of the time...

She is trying to create a new species. A politician with no public accountability.
eggggggzactly!!
Something tells me that we haven't seen the last of her.
Seeing her isn't the hardest part.
It' listening to her and trying to make sense of what she says,
that's mind numbing.
You're still trying?
I think this has my vote for the best headline.
Good question.
Her followers have been all up her butt for the past several months. I wonder how they're going to feel now. I'm sure they'll blame it on the 'Liberal' media or something of that sort. You watch.
It's irony.
Sarah says she's resigning because it's best for the people of Alaska when she's doing it because it's really best for her when in fact it really is best for the people of Alaska and the United States.
She just didn't realize that for once she told the truth.
Utterlly amazing Palin knew that she would lose for V.P. only to later quit as Govenor only to beocme a FOX news blowhard.
Remarkable.
Judging from her facebook responses, she's fooled a lot of fools.
Should we really look this "Gift Horse" in the mouth?
Sarah Palin just reaffirms the fact that those brown nosed dorks in High School and College, really were dorks!
They never grow out of it aka.... Hannity, O'reilly, Cheney, Bush, Rush, Rove, Beck, Colture, Malkin etc, etc, etc............
There is a problem with the old addage about fooling people. There is the 30% lunatic GOP hard core fringe that shows people can get fooled all of the time. Why would the poorest, unhealthiest, lowest wage earners, most undereducated people of the South constantly voting for right wing Republicans who don't deliver anything to help them? Basically, because of religion and supposed patriotism that the Republicans postulate. A recent example of so many is when McConnel of TN wanted the easterauto states to lower their beneftits to match those of the Southern auto plants. Why didn't he want to raise the southern benefits and wages to match those of the north. And why does Graham of SC not want a public health option when he partakes of a "socialized" govt plan given to all congress people. Why doesn't he get the "better" private insurance plan that he advocates for the balance of the US? He doen't want a "govt bureaucrat" getting between the Dr./Patient and the govt but is OK with an insurance person getting between the provider and the insured. Yet there is a portion of the US that continually votes against their own interests. So, "you can fool a lot of the people all of the time".
This is just like when your significant other dumps you and insists, "Its not you-- its me." Its you.
Good riddance,but I have a hunch this is not the last time we will hear from her.
That's not a hunch, just a small rounded swelling.
Conservative Christians can be fooled ALL of the time.
I don't think she has any intent but to escape. She's on the run and it's not hard to figure out from what.
her followers are delusional robots who would not care what she does, did, thinks, or anything else as long as she is jesused up to the hilt, thats all they care about.
Does her intent to become an non-governmental activist for change mean she is planning to become a community organizer?
Just askin' ...
LMAO! You beat me to it!
u betcha
