Sarah Palin is to resign as the Alaskan governor. I my never to be humble opinion she is resigning to make a profit and that crap about helping people is just that, crap. It's no secret that she is constantly being investigated for possible ethics violations. Is there something legal problems coming down the pike that the powers that be instructed her to jump ship to benefit the party? Stay tuned because this is the more likely possibility. With the exception of President being a Governor of a state is the most powerful office in politics. In the Senate you are one or one hundred and in Congress you are one of more than 300. The Governor is the one and only boss of the state, top dog. We were hit over the head with that fact during the last presidential election concerning Obama's lack of experience. I hope she is resigning to make a buck (the republican way) and not running from pending legal problems. As I believe that the Republican Party is always wrong and should be destroyed we still need them around to keep the weak and cowardly Democratic Party in check until we (the people) find a better way.
Before I say what I'm about to say I must state that Palin was put in an impossible position by Senator Mc Cain. There is no way anyone could be brought up to speed from Palin's position in time to become a viable candidate for the Vice Presidency. With that said, Palin is a joke! Properly a nice person but never can be a candidate for the highest office, hell most are not. During the election she had no clear answers to simple questions and the answers she did try to give were embarrassing even to me. There were times I was embarrassed for her.
Her fans say she was unfairly treated and attacked. I say if you are Governor of a State, world politics should be at least a hobby and you should be able to answer a few questions. You should at least know what books and magazines you read. Also if you are able to attack the opposition of your opponents and claim you are a "PITBULL" there is no such thing as too harsh.
We should want out leaders to have intelligence and natural curiosity and not be coached. The coaching and training of Palin during the election cost Mc Cain valuable time. Unfortunately we do not know when to cut bait and move on. Pailn will be given many opportunities to damage the Republican Party. Some one please take the shovel from the Republican Party's hands because the hole is getting deep!
The United States finally received its flowers from Iraqi citizens. We were told that American Military would be greeted with flowers upon invading the country but only received snipers, roadside bombs and suicide bombers. Before George Bush left office he singed an agreement that U.S. forces would pull back out of Iraq's cities on this day. This day has become an Iraqi holiday and has spurred multiple celebrations all day and night long.
The U.S. Military will still provide support when needed but this will go down as a great day as Iraq will begin to stand owns her own. Hopefully without a puppet government.
Dick Cheney has been seen in multiple instances saying that this pull back will lead to more violence and death. How much more violent can Iraq get? He blames Obama for this pull back. Unfortunate for him it was his administration that signed the agreement that allowed this to happen. Hoping that it turns out bad is not only like shooting your friend in the face, it's bordering treason (maybe not but it sounds good).
