Let's bag, burn & bury this whole fucking story so we can get back to being gluttonous assholes already. Where the fuck is Palin? Isn't she due for another appearance with more pearls of wisdom?

I am sure they are exaggerating. I don't think the timing of this announcement, 100 days before the next election, and the stories out of Iraq of soldiers packing up their shit and the timing of the upcoming "Main Street" bailout (forgiving a large part of people's home loans) are a coincidence...
