Former Gov. Sarah Palin on 'My Toughest Year So Far'
CBN News ^ | December 1, 2015 | Wendy Griffith

Posted on 12/01/2015 2:53:25 PM PST by Bratch

NEW YORK -- Two presidential campaigns ago, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin became a conservative superstar. Seven years later, the self-proclaimed "Mamma Grizzly" is calling 2015 one of the toughest years of her life.

"Some things happened that I haven't talked about publicly, things like getting canned from a job I really liked, sort of out of the blue, because I called somebody out," she said.

Palin was let go from her job as a Fox News political analyst in June. 

"Next morning I got word, 'Oh, we no longer need you anymore,'" she recalled. "Yeah, it was a shock, but more power to Fox News."

"They're a private enterprise," she continued. "They can fire someone for wearing the wrong color tie that day - that's their prerogative and I've been on both sides of the hiring and firing."

"They (Fox) still interview you?" CBN News' Wendy Griffith asked the former governor.

"Heck, yeah. I have a great relationship with them," she replied. "It was just kind of a little bit of a shocker of knowing that the 'haters' are going to love this one."

Then, the tabloids went into overdrive when the long-awaited marriage of her 25-year-old daughter Bristol didn't happen, even though she's pregnant with her ex-fiancé's baby.

The cancelled engagement was then followed by a cancer scare.

"Bristol said, 'Mom, you need to go into the doctor and get that thing checked," Palin recalled. "She insisted and I resisted so I finally went in to a doctor and got something checked, came back, biopsy - a cancer."

"Melanoma?" Griffith asked.

"Yeah, something like that," Palin said. "Anyway, a surgeon dug it out and everything was okay."

Erm.

What about for the months of the year when it’s nighttime 20 plus hours a day?

Tanning beds are used by A LOT of people in AK. It’s called sun therapy. It beats the alcoholism that is also prevalent in a state where there’s so little daylight for long stretches of the year ...

In the article Sarah said she got canned in June after calling someone out.

Megyn Kelly interviewed the Duggar Girls in June.

But where’s the link between Kelly, the Duggar Girls, and Sarah? Fox interviewed a lot of people in June.

I have never bed tanned yet as an active male I experienced enough “exposure” to have had two melonoma episodes.. I’m still kicking. Minor compared to some.

I have enough trouble sleeping as is with snoring spouse and poodles to have 21 hour days to contend with. There’s something to be said about sleeping in a cave.

Well, ten years ago he didn’t appear to be a GOPe apologist. In fact, he SEEMED to want to permanently crush the Democrat party. Now he wants to lose.

Perhaps Gregg Jarrett? Meagyn Kelly? Both have attacked her viciously on air behind her back

I saw Megyn Kelly trash Sarah several years ago, but not to her face, yes on air.

The reason it IS light 20 hours a day is because of the unusually low angle of the sun on the horizon, keeping it in sight throughout much of the planet's asymetric parabola, while greatly weakening the strength of its rays (both infrared and ultraviolet a & b).

It ain't how long it's on you, it's how hard it hits you. You can burn in 18 minutes under the right (wrong?) conditions.

Good thought, just wrong.
