    From my favorite scene in the Blues Brothers. Remember the look of outrage on the dad's face and his daughter snickering about it?

    Now, my comment was offensive! It's in the same vein. CC turned into a pretty good looking gal - I'd keep my daughter in a plastic box under my bed if I was the president.


    I think that we can agree on the fact that kids should be out of bounds for the media, comics and all the other rude commentators.

    But when it comes to the adult sex scandals? Bring it on!

    Being a politician takes some brass ones.

    I'd give 50 dollars to see what SP packs.

    Of course, It would not be a campaign contribution, look at it as a personal appearance fee???

    My big thing about her resignation is the lame duck excuse. GMAB.

    What would it be like if every lame duck elected official quit 18 months before the end of their term? Maybe better - maybe worse.

    Let's see now - GWB would have left in July of 2007 - giving us Cheney. (The thought sickens me.) Many Governors are term-limited. So why bother running for a second term if that will be your last? And why bother running at all?

    THe good things I can see from Gov Palin's resignation are, no more BS news stories about her and her family, the states business can go forward without anymore BS ethics charges eating up state funds, time, and integrity, and she might be able to more for Alaska and disabled children as a private citizen then as a public servant.

    Then again if the lefties and media think she is still a threat, even as a private citizen, this might not be the end of the BS news stories, attacks, and ill will jokes about her and her family.

    Maybe she'll join the Alaskan Independence Party and work toward secession from the Union rather then go down in flames with the rest of yall.

    At least Gov Palin has more integrity then Gov Sanford, Sen Pelosi, Sen Boxer, former Sen Clinton, and numerous of her Republican representatives.

    What, no Dianne Feinstein?

    I really do hope the Senators figure out the logjam with the Bowl Championship Series. It's rather irritating for teams to make the playoffs and then play for a bowl championship- Leaving the title to be decided by a computer is Un-American!. A few games added to the schedule would certainly cause the athletes to miss classes, but the financial ramifications for schools should not be ignored.

    TV revenue, the gate receipts and concession monies, along with a little kick back from the senators alma mater should be enough to get the esteemed representative interested in solving this American Tragedy.

    Tom Arnold is making movies now, He has no political aspirations. Get on your knees and thank the lord that my esteemed mayor decided to opt out of the Gov. race.

    That's all we'd need, some former gang banger running our insane asylum.

    I just listened to SP's resignation speech

    Oh my. I feel sorry for her. She just doesn't get it. I wish she would have had someone else write the resignation. She rambled on and in her usual, poorly constructed sentences. She is SO out the league. Oh well.

    If you Google her speech, you can find it somewhere.... oh, let's see is I can give you the link, should you want to listen.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch/?v=v5IIvg4gMxo

    If I screwed up the link, it's on YouYube......

  11. This month's issue of Vanity Fair also has an interesting article about Ms. Palin.

    And one about Julia Childs - also a frequent target of Saturday Night Live...who could take it!

    Two parts to the speech

    The link I have in the previous post links only to the second part of the speech. Somewhere on YouTube in a link to part 1. I listened to both parts just moments ago, and I am still trying to remember what my ears heard. Someone at one of the links commented that she must have gone off her medications before she gave the speech. It was one run on sentence after another.

    The first part of the speech had a couple of birds flopping around behind her, as well as a baby crying in the background noise. I found that rather entertaining.

    All in all, the speech was confusing at best. Maybe she didn't take Public Speaking 101 in college or high school.

    Bless her heart.

    P. S. Any bets on how quickly a call was made to Tina Fey for a SNL visit!

    I loved the ducks in the background

    As for Tina Fey, I got the distinct impression that she wanted no part of SP in the future.

    Tina Fey

    I suspect Tina doesn't need the money or exposure so returning to SNL to play SP would be a stretch, surely. I wonder though - they would probably pay her a small fortune to do a cameo.

    I really would like to see all of the hoopla go away for SP and her family, but if she keeps her family etc. on display or in the limelight, the negative press will keep up. Someone needs to save her from herself.

    Maybe she should write a book - as stated in a couple of articles I've read. I hope her writing is better than her public speaking. Maybe she will have a co-author as many do. In fact, I encourage it.

    I am going to give this topic a rest now. As you can tell, she is not my favorite person.
