PBS's Mark Shields on Friday said Sarah Palin's decision to resign as the governor of Alaska is "like Ted Kennedy's Chappaquiddick."

This astonishingly came moments after he called Nancy Pelosi the most effective House Speaker in his lifetime

Lib commentators are simply crazy. They actually get paid to say stoopid stuff like this......

[bray]

Who died when she resigned? Besides thousands of $oro$ harrassment lawsuits.

Pray for America

[mkmensinger]

For starters, Palin didn’t kill anybody.

[Lakeshark]

Y'all did, of course, notice Sarah wore a neck brace when she announced her resignation.....

:-)

[tndarlin]

Yes, Mark “Maxi” Shields, quitting as a Gov is exactly the same as killing a woman while you were drunk! Keep on writing this crap. Does the media even know that we see through every single thing they write, say and opine!?!

[Husker24]

To a Democrat giving up power is worse then death.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Mark Shields is senile. At worst Palin resigning was a mistake. At worst Chappaquiddick was murder.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The ruling class knows the Palin presidency is inevitable.

It's why they hate her.

And why she drives them mad.

[Cheetahcat]

Sorry but I fail to see the parallels between the two Kennedy was a drunken murdering bastard ,while Sarah was the victim of drunken murdering bastard defenders bearing false witness.

Mark Shields, your brain is dead. You have no reasoning ability. Murder by neglect is the equivalent of stepping down from an office for the betterment of Alaska?

[huldah1776]

So many people who watch MSM do not understand why she resigned. There needs to be a documentary put out on it or a SOAP opera series.

She did not quit, she just took herself out of the line of fire like the Brits recalling the Prince out of Afghanistan. Good grief.

[Lakeshark]

Shields is just continuing the new journolista meme of the week that she's "unelectable".

There are at least a dozen articles posted with this new line in the last couple of days.

[SoConPubbie]

Mark down their names.

They are either surrogates for Myth or the Huckster or someother progressive elitest or their a DNC Hack.

[cripplecreek]

Maybe he's on to something here.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Palin was a governor longer than Obama was a senator before he quit.

[ohiobuckeye1997]

Yep, her quitting meant that many Dem incumbents died this past tuesday and many more have a political life expectancy of about 2 years......Palin has a Kill rate of about 70%...that’s only 30% less than ted kennedy’s car!!!

[MrEdd]

Except nobody’s dead, she didn't drive off in a drunken stupor, and isn't spending the rest of her life as an inebriated sot chasing sexual conquests old enough to be her grandchildren.

But other than that...

There's still no resemblance.

[PGR88]

I saw the headline, and then the words “PBS Commentator” and stopped right there.

[Lakeshark]

LOL! Finally, a good parallel from the article......

[purplelobster]

It’s high time that the PBS fake news show was defunded. The U.S. taxpayer is paying the inflated salary of this doddering hack Mark Shields to fashion unfounded conspiracy theories.
