And you may as well drop the "quitter" meme. Only you, the Romneybots, and the Obots are still drinking that debunked swill.

Debunked?? What has been debunked. Reality is what it, is. Gov Palin quit her responsibilities as Governor because the job was going to become much harder. There is nothing here to bunk or debunk. It is a matter of reality. Reasons and excuses for doing such are fine, but the reality remains the same. Furthermore Gov Palin so no problem bringing her family into the ugly media mix when she took the VP spot (knowing full well what was coming for her daughter). So the notion that she left her responsibilities because of family concerns just doesn't hold any water with me.

You spin as well as any reporter for the MSM. Sarah Palin resigned, but you insist on using the term "quit". It doesn't take a genius to see that your selection of terms is designed to inflict maximum damage on Sarah Palin's character and reputation.

Secondly, you insert your own assumption that she left the Governorship, "because the job was going to become much harder." This is an outright slander on your part. It's pure invention, and again, spat out by you to inflict maximum damage to Sarah Palin.

Reasons and excuses for doing such are fine, but the reality remains the same.

The reality is that Sarah Palin was out-gunned and about to be overrun by the barrage of frivolous lawsuits coming from leftist operatives. She was essentially in an indefensible position, and would have been thoroughly destroyed, had she stood her ground in the Governorship. That's reality.

Some of her detractors aren't intelligent enough to grasp the situational dynamics which were in play at that time, and there are some who haven't bothered to get all of the facts of that siege, but I don't think you're one of them.

You appear to me to be one of those people who have seized on this one incident in her career to tar and feather her with, despite all facts, logic, and reason. You can't admit to the sound reasoning behind her decision to leave the Governorship because that would deprive you of the club you're using to beat her with.

I'm sure you vilify George Washington for his many retreats in the Revolutionary War - just as you do Sarah Palin. Using your logic, he should have commanded his army to stand fast at New York so that they could be slaughtered to the last man, and the cause of American independence lost.

I don't know what motivates people like you to attack one of this country's finest and most important patriots. I'm not sure that I even want to. The simple reality is that you do.

You have it exactly wrong.

Palin stepped down in order to fulfill her obligations to the people of Alaska.

Political psychopaths bringing false ethics charges perpetrated a state of dysfunction on her governorship (something that can’t happen on a federal executive level), so the only way she could uphold her sworn duties as governor was by stepping down and allowing Sean Parnell to continue service to the people of Alaska.

I don’t think you would be foolish enough to argue that the lieutenant governorship is not a valid political office.
