cuz Christians don't look kindly on non-jokes like yours.

Over the years, I have seen outsiders come into meetings and ignite the crowd with an indignant speech and then get themselves elected to lead the charge against the people then in power. I've seen mad moms do that in PTA organizations, where they roast the teachers and administration, get elected as the savior, then completely wreck the organization, demoralize the teachers and administrators, and then quit when they find out there are actual problems that they can't handle.

Sound familiar?

Either Palin has had an affair in a Airport Bathroom in Anchorage or She is going to gather Her flock for a Presidential Bid in 2012. Either way, I just want Her to go away.

cuz he knows he'd get his clock cleaned. Look at the speech she gave from the heart with just notes. Not needing a word-by-word teleprompter like the Bamster.

“There's One Word That Explains The Sarah Palin Phenomenon In - Its Entirety. It rhymes with ‘Punt.’ And it's starts with ‘C.’ And it's pronounced ‘Cunt.’”

“Scream in hell you psycho bitch. I speak for half of America when I say you should die of nuclear AIDS in barrel of your own children's blood. Fuck you and the polar bear you rode in on.”

“…the lady's marriage, by an apparently hastily arranged elopement, took place only 8 months before this delivery .”

“I question now whether she's actually ANYone's mother, since people with balls don't usually also have vaginas.”

“Sarah. Palin. November. 2009. Nude. Playboy”

"Is Sarah having a secret affair with Levi?"

"Is it possible someone other than the "First Dude" is Trig's father?"

“Todd wants a divorce, Sarah or even Willow is pregnant…”

“She misses the clothes, the stylists, the $400 false eyelashes…”

“Please let her do a Playboy photo spread.”

“…methinks some news report is gonna come out that Trig isnt her baby or that she was caught banging some dude other than her husband..or that her husband was caught banging Greta Van SucksomeShit.”

“Seven words that demonstrate precisely why Palin isn't qualified to be President --The world needs more Trigs, not fewer.”

"The world needs MORE Trigs, not less." In other words, brain damaged children."

“No wonder you like her. She most likely gives you a stiffy.”

“I find it hard to believe we've heard the last of this narcissistic shitstain.”

Calif Mike was kinder than myself in his assessment of this thread, when he wrote to you: “Joan, I am not blaming you for their hate letters, but please think about this: if your readers are the orchestra, then you are a conductor of this orchestra.“

So I ask you again, Joan -- you're different than what you accuse of O'Reilly how?

PS: Delete posts much, Joan?

Alaska will be better off in my opinion. mickliz

You, sir, are so correct. The hate spewing out of these posts is unconscionable.

but then she just walks away from the game.

Wow...that says it all.

When the going gets tough, the tough get going.

But,it seems that if you are a pitbull with lipstick, when the going gets tough---you just take your ball and run away.

...or is it?

Part of me senses she didn't want to risk a re-election campaign in 2010. Anything less than a blowout would have reflected poorly on her, and a lot would have been her political demise.

We're going to see a lot more of her in the "lower 48," whether we like it or not. By mid-2011, she may gauge whether running for the presidency in 2012 is worth it; if not, she could parlay her celebrity status into a radio or TV talk show, Rush Limbaugh for a new generation.

And isn't it interesting how the one-time "hockey mom" now describes herself as a "point guard"? Jeez, if I want a point guard in the White House, I'll wait until former Maryland star Kristi Toliver turns 35 and is eligible to serve.

CNN's Rick Sanchez wondered aloud if Palin could be pregnant again – shocking Candy Crowley

Yeah, Rick, must be those imbalanced hormones affecting Ms. Palin. In the acronym Keith Olbermann now uses on his show, "WTF?" Perhaps Mr. Sanchez next expects Sarah to grow to 50 feet tall and start stomping through the streets of Washington.

The small town beauty queen discovered the big world and wants to go on and enjoy it. The heck with commitment and duty, I want my cake and eat it too and no one better criticize me! If worse comes to worse, she can always say God told her!

I could more easily understand Einstein's theory than how her supporters think. Here are some samples of what the other (less than)half has to say about her:

"Palin is smart as a fox. She is the new shining star on the hill. She has more smarts and common sense then all the people in Washington. You go girl."

"Palin makes Obama look like a absolute clown right about now."

This one is particularly scary-

"I would love to see a Palin/Bachman GOP ticket for 2012."

I wonder how kindly Americans will take to a Japanese-style "lost decade".

The dish will be freezing.

Your objections say otherwise.

Very much. Let's see if we can't keep the momentum going. Michele Bachmann? Anything you'd like to announce?

One that quit and another who essentially is walking off the job. What's up with Sarah Palin? Is her unexpected decision evidence of mental instability? Probably not. Instead it enables her to collect lucrative lecture and public appearance fees (which she can't do as a public servant). The road from public service to self-enrichment is well trod and she's decided to cash in. Though she may think she has a future in national publics her opponents, and that would be Republicans duking it out for nomination, will make mince meat of her. "You quit, how can the American people rely on you..."

She presented herself as a regular old hockey Mom, whom we discovered has a taste for designer duds far beyond with Joe the Plumber's wife could afford. In many countries where wealthy people are assumed to be crooksters this would be held against her. As soon as she gets into office, the thinking goes, she will plunder the public trough for personal gain. By contrast, Mitt Romney's immense wealth would be an assurance he didn't need to do that.

Yet he could never sell himself on those grounds because wealth is taken as evidence of the American Dream, namely It's there if you work for it." And those who are less able need to rely on the wealthy to create jobs for them. This is an unchallenged article of faith among many Republicans,. Hence the GWB tax cuts were skewed through the wealthy.

Yet we're entering an era where people become wealthy by becoming famous and creating interest in themselves. Jon and Kate. Sarah Palin. This is going to be fun to watch.....
