Thanks Fox News for Being Honest About the REAL Reason Palin Quit.

2009 July 4

Everybody’s wondering, “Why did Sarah Palin resign from her public held post as Governor of Alaska?”  It’s a great question, especially for someone who supposedly believed in public service.  In an odd moment of clarity and honesty, Fox News points out exactly why,

“And I’ll work hard for others who still believe in free enterprise and smaller government; strong national security for our country and support for our troops; energy independence; and for those who will protect freedom and equality and life,” she said in a news conference at her home in Wasilla. “I’ll work for and campaign for those proud to be American, and those who are inspired by our ideals and won’t deride them.”

Palin, 45, didn’t elaborate on how she’d achieve those goals, but she will have a variety of potential platforms, from writing books to hitting the public speaking circuit to working directly with the Republican Party to get candidates elected.

In the process, she’ll also have the ability to make a lot of money — far more than the $125,000 or so a year she has earned as governor. She already had a deal with publisher HarperCollins to produce her memoirs, with publication planned for next spring. Terms of the deal have not been disclosed, but six-figure book deals are common for high-profile political figures.

That’s right, her position as Governor of Alaska was holding her back from making the big bucks.  Kudos Sarah Palin, you’re a true public servant.  Will her brainless followers still cheer her every word, or will they wake up to the lies, corruption, and backstabbing that is Sarah Palin?  I doubt it; they’d have to grow a brain.

    LeftAgenda – I like your blog. I can’t see that I can agree with any of it but that’s ok. Getting out of politics or appearing to do so worked for Al Gore. Man has that gas bag larded up. His carbon and methane foot print must be gigantic.

      Your “voiceofmoderation” is a misnomer. It should be “voiceofdesparation”.

        Wait a minute! Did you attack that guy “Democrapper” – Dude it’s obvious he actually disagrees with you. I just find you mildly rude and immensely amusing. Actually you’re relatively funny in a sophomoric way. I know, it’s cause I mentioned Al Gore and gaseous emissions in the same sentence. You don’t believe in God but you believe in al gore the racketeer. Only God would have a sense of humor large enough to create clowns like you and miscreants like Big Al. Anyway I need to take another bong hit – Purple Haze – wish you were here.

          You think your imaginary friend has a sense of humor?

            I don’t think Zombies like you have a sense of humor. Although you should, look at you.

            I do think though that you have a right to be Godless because you are the only missing link ever located. Tell me, do you have opposing thumbs? Ask your mum, if before they cut your tail off, if it was prehensile or otherwise.

            You are truly a piece of work. Go back on your meds, climb back in your padded little room and continue to hate yourself. You’ve earned the privilege.

              Hey, I’m not that bad lookin’. You seem upset George, do you need a hug?

              First of all you are butt ugly.

              Second of all I have a proclivity for women. And you?

              • 2009 July 5

                Oh, come on George, my wife wouldn’t have married someone that was “butt ugly.” I’m a real good dancer though, maybe that’s what won her over. Or, it could be my smile; I’ve got a great smile. So, George, you wouldn’t hug a man? Hugs are great, I’m not sexist.

                You know what they say – well actually they say two things.

                One, as for your wife, there is no accounting for taste and if you swept her off her feet while dancing to “Stayin Alve” under the glow of a disco ball, more power to you. You obvioulsy married up.

                Two, (I love to count) As the old saying goes… If I had a dog with a face like yours I’d shave it’s ass and walk it backwards” A little piece of Americana there for you.

                No I don’t see myself rolling around with men but whatever floats your boat.

                • 2009 July 5

                  How’d you know it was “Stayin’ Alive?” I have a “proclivity to women” also, George, but hugs are hugs.

                  I’m sorry if you’re a Sarah Palin fan George, but then “there is no accounting for taste.”

                    I had the lighter up to the bong and kabong another comment.

                    I can’t be distracted this way.

                    Perhaps for you hugs are hugs but man hugs are like man boobs they give me the Hebe Gebes. Quote the Geico Lizard.

                    I’m not worried about Sarah Palin. I’m honestly worried about you lefties. There is going to be some well deserved butt reaming, politically speaking, don’t get your hopes up and now the bulls eye is where it belongs on your tax and spend associates and the Manchurian Candidate you fools put in the White House. You can tell a person’s character by the company he keeps. Your man BHO picked Joe the Gaffer. You have to admit that is rich. A true conspiracy of dunces. Throw Pelosi, Reid, Chris Dodd and Barney Frank in the mix and you have a real formula for success. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? BHO thinks if we pass Cap and Trade China and India will follow. WooHoo what are these people smoking? Other than Barney of course we know what he’s smokin’.

                    Anyway “Stayin Alive” was an educated guess. Pretty good though huh?

                    Now back to my bong.

                      Interesting how George Black and voiceofmoderation have the exact same avatar. Now, go spend some quality time with your bong.

          Thought I killed George off. Too many computer too little time.

      I don’t care about Al Gore.

    Godless American – Is it because you are Godless that you are such a hater? Wow, take some valium and drink a few beers you need to settle down.

    • 2009 July 4

      Love and hate both take passion. Maybe if conservatives would let liberals legalize weed I wouldn’t be so upset all the time.

  3. 2009 July 4

    What’s fun is watching the GOP die a painful death. I’m almost starting to feel bad for them, but that’s because I’m liberal and I care about other people.

    How much was this woman supposed to put up with. She is right she was wasting Alaska money and being driven into bankruptcy by spurious, unfounded lawsuits. I believe she is 15 to 0 in the win column but the Dems would not stop due to outright fear. Is she supposed to take her family into bankruptcy to prove she is not in the wrong? Now you libs have a problem. Once she is out of office she can laser in. She will make money speaking and pay off the half million spent so far and she will come out a head. “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”, if you think she isn’t coming after you people you are out of your minds. As governor you had her in a cage now the hunted becomes the hunter and she can go after you. You will see her popularity soar in spite of zero support from women lib groups. You have a huge problem. All you had to do was back off after McCain lost the election but out of fear and loathing you couldn’t let her alone. She could have been back burnered and consigned to the scrap heap of history… Man you guys screwed the pooch on this one and it will be fun to watch.

      This woman has stabbed every person she’s worked with in the back. She’s lied to the Alaskan people and to the American people in general. Her crazy, lunatic religious beliefs make her position in public frightening. Lots of politicians make money when they leave office, not many (or any I can think of) actually quit office early so they can start making that money sooner.

      There’s nothing respectable about this woman. She’s a liar, a hypocrite, a conniver, an opportunist, and a user. She used her children to make a name for herself, and she’s used her position to coerce people to take part in her corruption. Nothing she says can be trusted.
