Video of Palin Resignation Announcement

If y’all can make any sense of what she’s saying, you’re doing better than I. Geez, all I hear is, “Blah, blah, blah, mean media, blah, blah, sports analogy, blah, blah…”

    Are you sure that’s not SNL?

  2. Kathy says:

    That’s too weird even for SNL. I don’t think an Onion writer could have come up with it.

    I just heard the idiot talking head on Fox news right now (8:53 PM EST)say (and I quote) “She has a rock star personality! She’s like the fifth Beatle!”

    Really? John Lennon and Sarah f’ng Palin? I don’t think so…rock star–no way!

    Yuck.

    Oh good grief — that’s hilarious. And pathetic.

    The R talking heads are flailing. They don’t have a clue why she resigned, and they’re trying to keep their options open. Meanwhile, Alaska bloggers are reporting that she quit ahead of possible federal indictments for embezzlement. If those indictments materialize, I’m sure she’ll blame the media.

    You know, she seems really nervous to me in this video. She can’t go long without taking a breath, and her voice is pitched a little funny. I mean, this is not a woman who suffers from a fear of public speaking.

  6. Kathy says:

    One commentator characterized it as “Red-Bulling her way through the speech”, which I thought captured her demeanor perfectly. She certainly didn’t come off as someone who is happy with her decision.

    What a perfect description. I might have to steal that new verb.
