I'm actually afraid. Like, I walk around as if everything is normal, but there is this heavy weight sitting on my chest.

I admit it, I'm obsessed with Palin. What am I going to do all day when she bows out?

Yep. I think the last line of this piece really sums it up. Of course, she could've said no.

Cool. I embrace this, because 'entertainment' is going to consist of library books by candlelight if I don't get an assignment soon.

Huh?

GIBSON: The state of Alaska, under OMB figures in 2008, got $155 million in earmarks for a population of 670,000. That's $231 per person in Alaska. The state of Illinois, Obama's state, got $22 per person. You got ten times per person as much. How does that square with your reforms?
PALIN: We have drastically, drastically reduced our earmark request since I came into office.
GIBSON: But you still have multiple of any other state.
PALIN: We sure are -- and this is what -- you go out and you ask any Alaskan this. This is what I've been telling Alaskans for these years that I've been in office, is no more.

When did blinking (aka, stopping for a moment to think) become bad public policy?
