She didn't finish her degree at Hawaii Pacific College. She didn't finish her degree at North Idaho College. She didn't finish her degree at the University of Idaho. She didn't finish her degree at Matanuska-Susitna College. She didn't finish her term as mayor, stepping down to run for Lt. Governor. She didn't finish her term on the petroleum board ethics panel, she resigned in protest and then ran for Governor. She doesn't want the office, she just likes running for office. She doesn't want to (can't actually) accomplish anything...
She is an ignorant woman that needs to get back into the fucking kitchen and cook me a chicken pot pie

Sarah Palin says that if she were in the White House, the White House's Department of Law would protect her from the ethics lawsuits she's experiencing in Alaska. You know, if the White House actually had one of those Sarah Palin: Why She Resigned Sarah Palin Talks to ABC News About Why She Resigned By KATE SNOW ANCHORAGE, ALASKA, July 7, 2009 After her bombshell announcement Friday that she was resigning as governor of Alaska 18 months before the end of her first term, and amid questions about her political future ricocheting from Alaska to Washington, D.C., Sarah Palin packed it up, traveled more than 300 miles from her family home in Wasilla and went fishing. It was there in Dillingham, Alaska, on the shores of Kanakanak Beach, that ABC News joined the former Republican presidential running mate on a salmon fishing trip. Dressed in a white T-shirt and overall waders, Alaska's governor was philosophical about politics and life, all the while plucking salmon from the family fishing nets aboard a boat her husband, Todd, and a buddy built 20 years ago. Palin said she was surprised by the media storm that followed her announcement to leave office, saying she thought it would not have been "such a darn big deal." But she struck a determined, if vague, note about her future. "I said before I stood in front of the mic the other day, you know, politically speaking -- if I die, I die. So be it," Palin said. "Don't know what the future holds. I'm not gonna shut any door. That -- who knows what doors open. I can't predict what the next fish run's gonna look like down on the Nushagak [River]. So I certainly can't predict what's gonna happen in the next couple of years," Palin told ABC News. Palin hinted that whether she holds elected office again or not, she does not intend to live a quiet life made up entirely of family fishing trips. "I don't need a title to be the one to usher in what it is that needs to be done in our state or our country." Palin conceded many people are still confused about why she decided to leave office. "You know why they're confused? I guess they cannot take something nowadays at face value," Palin said. But she said a major factor in the decision was the mounting legal bills she and the state have had to incur to fight ethics charges from her political adversaries. None of the accusations have been proved but, she said, the costs of fighting them have been enormous. "You know, conditions have really changed in Alaska in the political arena since Aug. 29, since I was tapped to run for VP. When that opposition research -- those researchers really bombarded Alaska -- started digging for dirt and have not let up. They're not gonna find any dirt," she said. "We keep proving that every time we win an ethics violation lawsuit, and we've won every one of them. But it has been costing our state millions of dollars. It's cost Todd and me. You know the adversaries would love to see us put on the path of personal bankruptcy so that we can't afford to run." As to whether another pursuit for national office, as when she joined Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., in the race for the White House less than a year ago, would result in the same political blood sport, Palin said there was a difference between the White House and what she had experienced in Alaska. If she were in the White House, she said, the "department of law" would protect her from baseless ethical allegations. "I think on a national level, your department of law there in the White House would look at some of the things that we've been charged with and automatically throw them out," she said. There is no "Department of Law" at the White House. Palin's Dim View of Politicians Another major reason Palin stated for walking away from her first term as Alaska's governor was that after she announced the decision not to seek a second term as governor, she would become a lame duck, and she'd refuse to "milk" that status. She said most politicians "say it's a paycheck, it's a paycheck and I get to travel around. No, that's politics as usual." Palin spoke openly about her ideas for the country, national security and energy, and she took a dim view of politicians. "No, I don't really like a whole lot of politicians," she said. Salmon fishing is a family affair for the Palins. Their fourth child, daughter Piper, age 8, was on hand to help. And 1-year-old baby Trig, who Palin said is getting ready to walk, stayed back on shore. Palin said the family hasn't discussed any plans to move away from Alaska. But when the family discussed whether she ought to leave office, it was her oldest child, son Track, who is serving in Iraq, who voted "hell, yeah." Husband Todd Palin said, "It's been a topic of discussion quietly for a while. It's never come to an, 'I can't take it anymore.' Let's vote. It's been a few months, and it just seemed that the resistance, the wasted time and the wasted money she had to go through every day." He said he doubts that his wife's resignation will be a weight off her shoulders. "She's gonna continue to be busy," he said. Sarah Palin said, "Every mom that we know multitasks. I'm gonna keep working extremely hard, but I am looking forward to having my kids by my side more, without getting criticized for having the kids by my side. In her first public appearance since her announcement last Friday, Palin appeared on Tuesday in a western Alaskan community called Kotzebue, to sign a bill aimed at improving management of safety officers in rural communities. Afterwards, she said she was absolutely sure Alaska will be better off with Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell, her successor. "I'm extremely happy," she told ABC News. "I know that I know that I know that this is the right thing for Alaska." Copyright � 2009 ABC News Internet Ventures http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=8016906&page=1 |

Levi Johnston seems to agree with Q - he says Palin quit because of legal fees and the prospect of making millions on the lecture + book circuit.
In any case, Huckabee and Romney have to be salivating at the prospect of a primary against her. First question in the debate: "Governor Palin, you left office before the end of your term because you cited the pointlessness of being a lame duck. Under that logic, would you leave office two years before the end of your Presidential term as well?"
@Q: I'm not trying to call you out or anything, but how do you think Obama feels?
His character, race, voice, actions, musical taste, each time he takes a shit, is scrutinized 24/7 every single day by every media outlet known to man: blogs, news websites, news channels, news papers, editorials, skeptical self-righteous republicans in the steam-room at the gym. This is the kind of treatment you can expect from ANY media source when you run for president or even consider running for president. I highly doubt anybody else on this planet has been treated much differently in her same situation. Sure, she's a family oriented person, but aren't most people? It's quite hard to defend someone so arrogant and idiotic when they're running for the second-highest to the highest position in the United States, yet you seem to do it quite often. You show your bleeding heart for Sarah Palin's down-home style, all while seemingly looking past her policies and ridiculous statements she makes practically every day. I'm sure Palin is a wonderful mother, daughter, and wife, but that doesn't change the fact that she's considered the last hope for the GOP's future even if she knows nothing about what the job of the president is. Answer me why you make it seem like Palin is so unfairly treated, and Obama isn't?
