If you thought that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin was going to just fade into the background you are very very wrong. One day after announcing her resignation, Palin became showed everyone what she meant by the little Hockey Mom/pit bull joke. On face book she released a message that smacked the mainstream media for its response to her resignation and hinted that she will be running in 2012..........Later in the day the Governor's attorney Thomas Van Flein on warned legal action may be taken against bloggers and publications that reprint what he calls fraudulent claims...

Who would have thought that the only Republican with any balls is a Woman.

I hope this is going to be as much fun as I imagine it will.

[joesbucks]

Well I’d write something but I’m afraid of a lawsuit.

[popdonnelly]

The liberals will be appalled that anyone has the audacity to fight back. Not that I really care what liberals think.

“Who would have thought that the only Republican with any balls is a Woman.”

Anyone who has been paying attention.

[popdonnelly]

Joe, they’re missing you over at the DU.

[WHBates]

I suspect that things may get very interesting as time goes on.

Good post! The best place to get news on Sarah, is just like this, right from the lady herself. Glad that her attorney is going after those who slander Sarah. Also thrilled that they called out certain media traitors as the usual suspects in spreading around defamatory lies about our Sarah.

Hope she takes everything Huffington stole.

Pray for America and Saracuda

I am still in Iceland and have heard just today that the news is that Sarah cooker her goose for presidential office having just quit the gov slot..shows her to be a quitter under pressure. Is the msm saying this in the US?

[ConservativeMind]

You have a typo:

“Palin became showed everyone...”

[joesbucks]

Well I guess I’ll have to check out their site. Never been there.

[Marysecretary]

Good for her. I hope she sues the pants off of all of them and wins a huge settlement from each. Hooray for Sarah.

[True Republican Patriot]

Yep! But they are All Wrong! Sarah is running for 2012! he draws hundreds of thousands but as Governor can’t get down to the Lower 48 except for major trips! Everytime she makes a move, the Demorats scream bloody murder tha she aint in Alaska”doing her job”. so screw the Governorship! SARAH is the a great leading Republican that has just declared for the 2012 Candidacy and is going to Save AMERICA!
Sure want to visit Iceland someday soon!

[ak267]

actually no celtic gal. I guess things in Iceland are pretty slow.

I think what we’re seeing it that the MSM is kind of scared now that Sarah isn’t playing nice or doing thing according their plans. I guess her enemies wanted her to stay in Alaska and be their punching bag.

[WHBates]

LOL, so they care about this in Iceland? Hummm, I guess every day is a slow news day in Iceland?

John Batchelor: "As a candidate, (Gov. Palin) begins the nomination hunt with a formula
that none of her rivals can match, not even (backstabber RINO) Mitt Romney,
not only because she gave up something in order to go for the
White House but also because she reached this decision by being drafted.

"What is going on right now in the Republican Party—
even as the professionals scramble to react with grins and
snorts to the news of Palin’s Alaska resignation—
are the early scenes of the 2012 campaign for the presidency
with Sarah Palin as the once and future hero. Like Joan of Arc,
Catherine the Great, Elizabeth Regina, and, skipping
four centuries of quarrelsome princes, Margaret Thatcher,
the Republican Party has already decided that the governor of Alaska
will rescue the GOP from its ruination.
What Sarah Palin begins with an announcement from
Wasilla is not only a campaign, it is an Iditarod of a crusade—
first woman, first mom, and second moose-hunter into the White House."

"In fact, the governor does not need much more than a ballot line from the aimless,
tongue-tied, villain-rich GOP. She certainly does not need the GOP to do well
in the congressional mid-terms in 2010; she does not need the party
to improve its flabby polling on health care or trust;
she does not even need the Republican Party to raise a voice
to explain her positions on the burning controversies on Capitol Hill.
Palin does not need to prove anything at all about wise government,
because she appeals directly to the anti-authoritarian crowd that has
been with us since Shay’s Rebellion in 1787."

lol!

mcstupid lost his pair a long time ago.

The msm would dearly love Palin to go away. They are more afraid of her than any other politician on the Republican side. Because Palin is the Republican who most adheres to conservative positions on the issues. And she has the most charisma by far of any Pubbie pol. And all the “scandals” that have supposedly been taking place under her admin are actually petty and sometimes made up out of whole cloth. They throw mud at her, and see what sticks. So far, none of it is sticking.
