Sarah Palin has just resigned as Governor of Alaska
- Leta Sposted 15 years ago
0Agreed. Because even if I don't like it, she definitely has become something of an icon.

This is the part where we dems (and many others) say, "I told you so." lol
Something smells wrong about this resignation. Someone has dirty laundry on her or the husband and she's going to make a quick getaway.....
Maybe staying home will give her time to quick study how government works, world leader's names, and geography...
LOL Doesn't she look like Hilary?
LOL Just messin' with MightyMom TK, no political context

Look at Obama
LOL can't argue against this one
You are right, actually, MM, about Clinton. I read his biography. His mother actually didn't like Hillary, because she expected a prettified idiot for a daughter in law. His reply was that he was tired of "beauty queens" and that Hillary met him on his level. ...so yes, he maybe would have tolerated Palin for....well, however long it takes,
, not that long....as he was a terrible womanizer who had some issues (he himself said that he was always the "fat band boy," so that when he gained some claim to fame, the attention from women was a bit overwhelming, and he gave into trying to ameliorate his insecurities).You do not read much. As if I didn't know.
To spell it out...one has to I guess with you...and to be quite blunt: Hillary is the kind of woman one would marry--an equal, a partner. Someone whose interesting qualities goes beyond mere physical beauty (which is great and all, don't get me wrong,, but if that's all there is to a person, they get old VERY, very fast.) Hence, yep, Bubba, with his womanizing ways based in insecurity, might screw around with tacky 'beauty queens,' with their fake boobs, and this and that and high maintenance hair extensions, etc., etc.--I could go on, but that's about his problem--not Hillary's.
It's funny how those who never get much you know what always assume womanizing is so much greater than what it is...just an observation. I had to work a concert event last night and met some suicide blond groupies hanging around the star. Man! They look like drag queens close up with all the paint and etc.Here we go again...
If you have the time, could you tell us again how much your Jr High teacher liked your writing? Or how about the great accomplishment of reading the newspaper in high school? That's always a good one for impressing the masses.You may look up my books on Amazon.com, trollsensei.
And since I am qualified to teach writing, I'd give your displays here on Hubpages an F. I've seen better among 8th grade essay exams that scored 2 on a scale of 1-5. A fact, 'Holy crap.' Stick to sport bars. That's more your crowd. I hear they have a real cool one over there in Redneckaville, AK that Palin frequents.I'm not at all worried. You see the extent of Palin sympathizers here... I can't remember which comic newscaster actually went to Palin's berg in Alaska and interviewed the denizens of the sports bar in town. The utterances were similar to yours, hence, my comment,
. BTW, my partner lived in Palin's hometown. Pretty good second hand account of what we are dealing with here... They are still splitting up the territory and settling it.
As far as your 'writing,' and I lose the term loosely, it is a barebones fact that it is pretty monosyllabic. I've seen, literally, 5th graders with more variety in vocabulary. Definite 'F.'

While I can't say I was surprised about the resignation, I know it has made a lot of peoples' day. No comment about that.
Did want to chip in about the ethics charge.
I haven't been following these particular ethics charges that closely, but from what I've read, they've all been dismissed. I'm not defending Palin here, because again I haven't read all the details, but, I thought some people might be interested in how the ethics process really works behind closed doors. (It needs reform)
Based upon my personal experiences with my state's ethics commission, this means that these 13 charges were frivolous or at the very least, unsubstantiated. Again, haven't taken the time to read about all of them, so what do I know. I'm just someone who used to attend all the ethics meetings and a lot of hearings in my state.
It sounds pretty negative when someone is being investigated, even more so if you use the word ethics. It's a common strategy used. You file an ethics complaint, no matter what the charge and no matter how miniscule it is. When your opponent is in the headlines for "So and so had an ethics charge filed against them today.", well, that's priceless. It's very frustrating.
The fact of the matter is that frivolous ethics charges are filed on almost a daily basis across the nation for really dumb reasons, by both sides. I've had to deal with my share of them. I've had to testify many times before the ethics board in my state and have been caught in the middle of things that sound a lot worse than what they really are. Other times, things are so hilarious even the board can barely keep a straight face. It's become a joke.
I appreciate campaign ethics boards, because obviously we need checks and balances, but improving the system would be VERY beneficial to taxpayers and the political process.
Just my two cents. - Iðunnposted 15 years ago0
Bingo. You got it Iounn... And racketeering. Unfortunately, from my research on Palin, she's likely not to know exactly what she did 'wrong.' She's an idiot in over her head. What always struck me about her, however, is how dead thrilled she was about all the accoutrements that accompany power and fame.
what stuns me is how many americans will buy the package knowing it's empty. I find that deeply depressing.
I'm a fast researcher and I scan news throughout the day. It's a rare thing when some big news gets by me first.

Are YOU the "big boys and girls"? And what is your obsession with sports and bars and such?Oh, no, stalker sensei. I dated professors when in college (remember--I dated no guy with less than an master's degree?). ...Yeah, I saw your comment on that one thread before you deleted it. (Don't want to make your stalking obvious, do you?)
Believe it or not, I find both frat boys and bar brawlers repulsive,. What does THAT say, I wonder?

She's had her 15 minutes of fame. Can we move onto someone more important than Palin? Someone like Lindsay Lohan or Miley Cyrus?
Best reply ever...you are my new hero
LOL to be fair I would mention though that Lita is on par with TK in terms of stalking and bashing. They make a good pair
You are on par with TK in that you don't know what you are talking about here, Misha. I have no gripes with you (and really don't want to have), so if you really don't mind, could you stay out of my affairs on Hubpages? I do not need a dad here.
For your information, I do not like what TK does to numerous others here (if I were Mighty Mom, I would have took it even further...I found his remark that insulting). Since they will not ban him, I have made it my little crusade to mirror his behavior...a psychological lil trick one can use with abusive personalities.... I think he'll abandon his crap soon--just how many new people can he find to attack? And yeah, who would want me tailing them withall my words when they can barely muster 2 or 3 syllables?
You are misreading the situation, Misha. You have misread other situations, too. That's OK, I'm not holding it against you.Oh, I am not trying to play your dad Lita, god forbid.
I am just watching you guys bashing one another, and frankly lately you started to outperform TK in this area. So I just wanted to balance MM's and Susan's slightly biased (as I see it) opinion, for a sake of justice
But recalling your - umm - relations, for a lack of better word, with a few other guys here, I am eagerly awaiting a moment when you guys stop bashing one another and start cooing - it always brings tears of joy to my eyesOh, you have got to be kidding, Misha, please. Jeez. Other guys? In your imagination, maybe... I've appreciated 1-2 for their intelligent argument, not more. (Intelligent is the key word here.)
I leave the rest of that kind of stuff to you,.
She's always been my hero.
- I'm doing my best at stabbing those trolls with steely knives, but I grow so weary of it... As far as I can see, it's been about 2 months now that the boards were overrun with meanies who have no argument and who just want to torture people any way they can. I never did understand the appeal, in real life or virtual life. And I think the argument or thread should stay--but somebody or something needs to kiss that toad and make it >poof<...disappear! (Won't be me--kissing is not part of the contract. I only made a deal to try and kill it.)

“Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people.” -Eleanor Roosevelt
- Brilliant minds 'have discourse' on all of the above.
And after all, Sarah is pretty much JUST an idea someone in the McCain camp came up with, you know. They have since dismissed it.
LOL That was good Lita
See, Misha. This is what far separates you from the likes of...you know who.
thanks.

Bitter of what? There is nothing there....vacuous. I state plain facts... And also one of more than a few speculations that are going around on the political blogosphere. Either way, almost all political pundits, many Republicans--including ROVE--are saying her political bid for any future office is over.
Oh, yes, please I wanna be jus like Sarah Palin and have an studly (ooo,iick) monosyllabic husband like Todd and hecto-peck or something of children and go 'pick fish' and kill wolves from helicopters and to have gone to 5 community colleges an' finally have graduated w/o ever doing a practicum in any journalistic field (her major), and to have winked and said 'you betcha' in a nation-wide debate. Heck, yeah!
I know! You like Sarah so much because you are so much a guy in Todd Palin's image. Did someone say hide-n-seek?

Capable Woman is right about more than just pop music lyrics and Georgian politics! lol
He also writes political and religious (ooo, bad word) commentary sometimes.
Sorry...I was just basically poking fun at the Sarah Palin adorers above...
when i heard the news about palin, it brightened my day and gave me hope that this country will survive afterall. Next is obama, once i hear that he has resigned i will say "so there is a god afterall" man please no one vote him in for a second term, i need a job
