Stumble ThisI wonder what they had on her?
Kind of a strange basketball analogy.

I personally believe this is why U.S. Alaskans need maps so we can help the economy and the drill baby drill, such as the Trig, everywhere such as. I believe our economy should help the U.S., or the Kosovo and the overseas countries, so we can help build up our future for more Trigs.
Honestly, my bipolar wife is more coherent in her most manic moments...Palin's just scary. Almost as scary as the idiots who would still vote for her.

The bell tolls for thee, Rush Limbaugh.
Did that stupid cunt really just say working outside the government was the way to effect positive change?
You would have to be some sort of.. i dunno.. .Community Organizer... to do that sort of herculean, noble task.
Wow.
If the speech had ended at 2:03, it would have been fine, IMO.
Just looking at the profile of the family at 3:54, these are the Bizarro-Kennedy's.
Anymore I believe it doesn't matter if her or Obama was sitting in the oval office. She actually might be less destructive than having a hooked-up lawyer in there.
I shudder at the thought.
If they'd just left her alone and not dug up all her glaring flaws, hypocritical bullshit, and complete ineptitude, none of this would be happening.
And if that child rapist David Letterman had just kept his mouth shut she wouldn't be having to do this.
Where's Chris Crocker to cry "LEAVE SARAH ALONE!!!"
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
(I must admit that I'm only commenting because it gives me an excuse to use one of my favorite phrases... wretched brood... just rolls off the tongue)
Ad space for the Palin, eh VideoSift? I'm disappointed.

From that site: "In August 2008, Senator John McCain tapped Governor Palin to serve as his vice presidential running mate in his Presidential campaign." Yeah, I bet he did tap that.

So like Nixon (the sh*t)
She decided to quit
Now watch for the Playboy unveilin’!
If she were to run, and by some bad thing win...I'd have to move to another country.
I live in Texas. They are already pushing the Palin 2012 stickers... I'd rather eat my own face off.
My money is on #1, hedging on #2. I would hope #3 and #4 have crossed her mind.
Can you imagine the offspring of her and George W.?
I just threw up in my mouth... http://www.morphthing.com/image/14335993-SarahPalin-jpg-george-w-bush-main-Full-jpg?key=ad35219ddd8a245a4a6f44cacc899ee0
General
Moved pork barrel spending from one industry to another.
Ethics
Talked big talk about ethics but appointed unqualified cronies to high office and got her sister's ex fired from a gov job for personal reasons.
Fiscal Notes
Eviscerated all social services.
Education
Talked big talk with nothing tangible to show for it such as improved test scores. Also, what the fuck would someone who thinks the world was created in 6 days 6000 years ago know about education?
Corrections
Did nothing but partake in a perfunctory kind of ceremony that every mayor or governor is likely to take part in.
Fish and Game
Drill baby drill!
She's dumb enough to think she still has a shot at the White House. She should get with George Bush and go on a brush-clearing tour. Of course Bush spent so much time on brush-clearing vacations that there's no brush left west of the Mississippi. He got my yard last summer.
I wish. I had a tree fall in my yard a few days ago. It was an old money tree that literally EXPLODED into millions of tiny branches and scattered itself over my yard like a fractal that divided by zero.
She's quitting because she's about to get hit with another big scandal
DING!
Local speculation is that some bombshell is about to drop, or would if she didn't resign.
as RedSky pointed out, unless she just ran a marathon, she's very tense, terse and having great difficulty with breath control.
Someting's up.
I count 58 Meaningless cliche phrases.
The woman is a walking political sentence generator.
I'm stepping down because i hate money being wasted in politics. Its better for Alaska if I'm not your leader any more.
Good. Fuck off, stupid.
I think I said that out loud while watching the video.
Scary.
I bet that she has a talk-show within the year.
^ ^ ^THIS. I shudder at the thought, but I guarantee FOX already has it figured out.
I suspect it is this as much as anything else. If the standard media treatment is any yardstick, then any future political activity of any kind from Palin would be met with incredible hostility along with nasty attacks on her family. She may simply have decided that she'd be better off behind the scenes where her family isn't so open to calumny. The foaming-at-the-mouth left-wing reaction whenever you mention her name is a fine example of the pied-piper mentality the media has drummed into the mush that neolibs call grey matter.
Her speech was rambled a lot and didn't make a lot of sense. The impression I got was that she was flying off the cuff rather than making any sort of prepared statement.
