I'm Sarah Palin! Obama got elected and his big government, big spending thing is a huge problem (our national priorities are all out of wack!). I think I can help fix this better in some non-government position of an undisclosed nature. Therefore, I'm resigning as Governor (because I want to fight for Alaska on a NATIONAL scale not just a state scale). Don't worry, my Lt. Gov. will do a great job (I'm doing what's BEST for Alaska).

I'm not a Sarah Palin fan at all (I disagree with policies and find listening to her "speak" to be very painful). But it seems like some SLOG commenters who feel the same way don't really LISTEN to her. They just go "Sarah Palin? Basketball analogy? WTF IS SHE TALKING ABOUT?!" She's not really THAT incoherent. Just very very ineloquent. And fairly inarticulate. But not incoherent (not completely anyway). Stop willfully misunderstanding her just because she's....Sarah Palin. Stupidity hurts me.

Oh and if my summary seems a little short it's because the rest of the speech was a bunch of circular rambling bullshit.

Posted by SillyWhabbit]]> Sun, 05 Jul 2009 01:15:56 -0700 The Stranger She has a LOT of gates behind her...Troopergate, babygate, AIP Gate, ethics gates, Affair Gate and MY particular favorite...House Gate.
Seems that when she was Mayor of Wasilla and had a sports arena built, lots of things in her house are also present in the family home. You know the house Todd and a few of his "contractor buddies" built. Oh yeah, there was Permit gate too. We still don't know the identity of Todd's resourceful and incredibly skilled "buddies". No records of building permits naming the contractor exist, due to a paper The Beast from Wasilla signed.

She claims in this very public speech that there have been too many mean people in the media(?) making fun of Trig. Who??? I have heard lots of criticism and mockery thrown her way and her family's way, but nothing I can recall about Trig.

"The world needs more Trigs, not fewer." Huh? Where the hell did this come from??

As usual she goes off on a long-winded tangent talking about how great the troops are. Yeah yeah yeah, thank you for constantly reminding us, as if we're all in elementary school , how super the troops are. What the hell does it have to do with her resigning??

She claims that she is being clear about how she isn't going to be engaged with politics as usual. Stop beating around the bush and tell us what politics you are going to be engaged in then.

Oh, here's a real gem I just got to the part where she refers to her coming to national stage in Aug 08 as "the real climate change." WHAT _ A _ BITCH

"Top-down big government takeover"-- a takeover?! excuse me?? Oh, she means the Obama administration. Hey Obama voters, you voted for a "government takeover"!! By the way, aren't ALL governments "top-down?" How else can they govern for chrissakes? What a BITCH. Good riddens for now Ms Palin

And isn't it up to her what she does as a lame duck? She wouldn't be compelled beyond her will to travel around wasting Alaskan taxpayer money. What a dipshit.

where did you read that she's getting out of politics altogether?
a credible source, or one of those "elitist" "liberal media" deals?

Mark my words- the other shoe is gonna drop, most likely over the weekend, and it's bigger than Bristol getting knocked up again.

Please, please, please be an FBI wiretap. Sarah or Todd in a perp walk would be the final nail in the GOP coffin.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA

Lord Basil, please promise me you'll come around and leave your insightful comments here on a regular basis, k?

You must be so fucking stupid to think something like that... Please promise me you'll try to start thinking a little, will you? Do some kind of thinking exercises -- start slow!! -- and work your way up to at least a halfway safe level of intelligence, for our sake as well as your own. It's the patriotic thing to do -- you know with the 4th fast approaching and all.

The term universally applied in the reports of her spiel is "rambling."
