I think we have a winner.

Alaska bloggers have reported in recent weeks that “a long simmering embezzelment/IRS scandal is still being looked at by the feds.” In her press conference today, Palin asked the public to “trust me with this decision and know that it is no more politics as usual.” But she also bemoaned “political operatives” who have “descended on Alaska” to investigate “all sorts of frivolous ethics violations.” Palin said this “politics of personal destruction” was one of the key motivating factors behind her decision today.

Sarah has a 'higher calling.' Oh won't you all stop picking on her? She's a victim in the meanie old world of politics.

"How sad that Washington and the media will never understand; it’s about country," she said in a message posted on her Facebook page. "And though it's honorable for countless others to leave their positions for a higher calling and without finishing a term, of course we know by now, for some reason a different standard applies for the decisions I make. But every American understands what it takes to make a decision because it’s right for all, including your family."

Everything she do, she do it for you.

I'd like to hear her definition of "a higher calling." Unless she's joining a nunnery or moving to Darfur, I call bullshit.

If that turns out to be A-Rod's baby, there could be a dangerous irony implosion.

:lol2: And we'll crown David Letterman king!

I'd like to point out that the President left HIS office to further his political career. Not a peep about that.

Undertoad 07-05-2009 03:00 PM

He didn't resign the Senate until he was elected President, as is normally the case.

Alluvial 07-05-2009 03:27 PM

Ew. That's not funny, about Piper.

Speaking of, that poor thing was getting bitten by mosquitos the whole time she was standing there! Shame on Palin for dragging her out there. In flip-flops, no less.

Point to UT

I see the Daily Kos published that Al Franken impregnated her youngest daughter.

I thought it was David Letterman?
