I knew you'd do something like this. Actually pretty funny bro. I like #1 my self. I wish you would have incorporated the use of "Doin' it Willie Jeff style" in there, but pretty damn good. I always thought you were better than the Lettermen people at writing Top 10 lists. Keep em' coming, as I will need something to laugh at when Obama's impending 20% inflation rate hits.
You forgot "needs time to try and look smart for the next Katie Couric interview". Then again, that could take forever.
I've never been good at Schadenfrude. In fact, I doubt I just spelled it correctly.
Public Relations 101 classes (which I've taken, so I'm not just guessing here) teach you to make an announcement you'd rather cover up on a weekend, preferably a holiday weekend.
If this was some deliberate ploy, she would've saved it for a different day.
I strongly suspect something bad has happened, or is happening. And I know this isn't a typical stance, but I feel a little sympathy for her because she was picked by a power structure to be a symbol, a saleable commodity, when she's really a human with a pretty goofy family to cause her headaches.
But part of me DOES want to grab a box of popcorn to watch the whole thing unravel. She did accept the job, after all.
Ubie,
if she resigned because she or someone in her family is seriously ill, I'll take this post down. If it's because of an affair or political scandal or another pregnancy, it stays up.
Or perhaps
Wants to spend more time with the family....sittin' on the porch looking at Russia?
Oh, I'm not saying to take it down, believe me.
I'm also betting it's not something like an illness, which she would milk indefinitely, given her past record.
I'm guessing it's something reeeaaaallly embarrassing. Probably cringe-worthy.
But I have no idea. It's just that when people come down, even if they deserve it, I still feel bad for them. I can't help it.
I felt sorry for Madoff when he was walking down the street and people were yelling and slapping at him.
So glad you're posting every day.
Send your top 10 in to Dave--and make him pay you. Love your blog.
I'm hearing rumbles that Palin's house was allegedly built by the same company that built the sports complex in Wasilla, which would be a huge conflict of interest. Also, that company allegedly had ties to Ted Stevens as well.
I'm not going to pull a wingnut and pretend this particularly outrages me. But if it's true, she could face jail time. And all of this would make perfect sense.
Todd,
You have to read this: http://tinyurl.com/klqojg
My third grader has a better grasp of sentence structure than Governor Palin.
You betcha!
Anything to make her go away.
