Stunner.
Many, many round-ups (I was off at the movies, getting my Depp fix); all are good. Elizabeth has rounded them all up into one big bag.
I don’t know what to think. She deserves our respect and gratitude. Her family deserves some well-deserved rest and PRIVACY.
One source said her brother said since she’d returned to Alaska after the campaign, she’s spent 80% of her time defending herself and had amassed $500K in personal debt doing the same, not to mention that Alaska had spent $2 million defending her.
Watch the media feeding frenzy begin and the lib-heads spin/explode on the Sunday talk shows. They will crow “We’ve won! We’ve won!”. But just wait and watch…

“Not every politician is willing to put personal ambition ahead of everything. It’s laudable if, as is most likely, she just decided that her family and life were more important than serving an ungrateful public and exposing her family to a nasty, classless press.
But, for better or worse, that is what the job of president (or governor, or vice president) entails, and if she’s just not willing to put up with this crap anymore — well, that is completely understandable, but it also is a decision that would seem to disqualify her from office, at least in the near term.”

Commenter Robert Belvedere on Cold Fury’s “They just can’t quit her” post (h/t GreenRoom:
I’m becoming convinced that Sarah Palin is the conservative’s Frodo—an ordinary person of the type who, when tasked with a thankless and dangerous mission, will inevitably rise to the occasion.
Smitty on Krauthammer, Palin and the Evil Queen who can’t stop looking in her mirror [editted for PG]:
But it doesn’t take a prophet to realize that, if BHO is A[S]U in 2012, HRC will come back with the fury of a cancer that’s been in remission for a few years.

The long weekend beckons. Considering how under the weather I’ve been for so many weeks, I think I’ll just sleep alot. One friend said my malaise might be caused by the air quality here in ATL. For me, the ozone alerts parallel the idiocy exhibited in our nation’s capital, which also suffers from poor air quality. Could the tsunami of stupidity we’ve witnessed since January 20 be the result of oxygen deprivation? Surely it can’t get any worst than it already is….
Check out the Democratic Bullies…(sorry no link, message via Facebook)
As many of you know, Gwinnett Place Mall (Simon Properties) forced us to cancel the Atlanta Independence Day Tea Party, based on “reciprocal property easement agreements” – even thought it was held on private property NOT owned by the Mall/Simon. We have since found out the covenants and restrictions expired in 2004, and there were no current restrictions that would have allowed them to make us cancel. We were bluffed and bullied.
Check out Democratic pettiness….
We all know the seething hatred liberals still harbor for Reagan, twenty years after he left the White House and five years after his death. This, despite the fact that he rebuilt our nation’s military, gave Americans reason to feel good about their country’s future again and helped to help free millions of Eastern Europeans from communist oppression, all after the misery of the Carter years.
Can they be so partisan and petty to want to rewrite history after an airport had already been renamed in our 40th president’s honor?
I know, I know. Rhetorical question.
Check out Obama’s policies in action…
It turns out that Hav-a-Tampa cigars, a Florida-based unit of Altadis USA, is going out of business. Demand for cigars has declined amid the economic downturn, but aggressive regulations and taxes drove the final decision to close the business
Check out these RINOs practicing self-correcting career suicide….
Blaming Sarah Palin for John McCain’s problems? How weak can you get? Continuing to talk about a lost election from months ago? What could possibly be gained by this? Oh wait, doing so will endear the consultant to the other Republican candidates, say Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee and the rest of the 2012 Republican hopefuls. Or are one of these guys paying the anonymous leaker to give Vanity Fair Palin-hating fodder. It’s a win-win-win! Destroy Sarah Palin for her 2012 rivals. Thin the field and put up those who have no chance of winning thus ensuring an Obama victory. Best of all, Vanity Fair can sell magazines using the image of the woman they hate.

The IG-Gate onion is turning into onion soup. No wonder the media is banging away at Palin – it’s a loud distraction to keep the masses focused away from what is REALLY happening.
It brings to mind a favorite exchange from The Hunt for Red October:
Captain Davenport: They’re pinging away with their active sonar like they’re looking for something, but nobody’s listening.
Jack Ryan: What do you mean?
Captain Davenport: Well, they’re moving at almost forty knots. At that speed, they could run right over my daughter’s stereo and not hear it.
Who knew Obama was a movie buff?

Column A: Leave it to the Chinese to parse the Obama Love for it’s real meaning.
This way of doing things is in conformity with the Marxist doctrine of the Communist Manifesto in which Marx foretold a capitalist financial crisis.
Column B: Hoping for another terrorist attack?
But understand, this is not unpatriotic. You can wish all manner of horrors on this country, but as long as these horrors might serve a specific political agenda, you’re not being unpatriotic. Unpatriotic is a public health-care plan. Unpatriotic is a judge modifying sub-prime mortgage loans to keep a roof over someone’s head. Unpatriotic is phosphate-free detergent. Patriotic is wishing for a terrorist attack on the United States.
Patriotism is dead, long live patriotism.
What was it Rahm said – “Never let a good crisis go to waste?”
Oppositeland, indeed.

Sorry so quiet. Still suffering from sinus trouble, then this weekend’s marathon events (too many of which were outside – thus causing dangerous overheating) wore me out even more.
I get sick, take a couple of days off, and the place goes to hell in a handbasket. Where to even begin in this sad state of affairs?
The world is going nuts.
IG-Gate has expanded past three rings and it about to bust out of the tent. Unbelievable that this corruption continues unabated.
Stacy is stirring the pot again, going after his favorite whippin’ boy Andrew Sullivan. Donald suggests those who disagree may need some father-figure time (and maybe a diagnosis of LowT?), then takes a swipe at the ol’TrigTruther himself. And Stacy has even more to say.
Happy, Happy Minnesota. Surely they are all so proud.
Shameful turncoats. Yes, turncoats, traitors to the people they were elected to represent.
Nothing but thieves.
You get what you pay for – another government contract lowest bidder?
Funny how Obama was silent for so many days before meekly acknowledging the struggle of the Iranian protesters as they watched freedom slip through their bloody fingers, but then jumps right up and sides with the ousted dictator of Honduras minutes after he’s shown the door. Telling, isn’t it?
Elizabeth wants to know – when are the grownups going to show up?
Laurie’s been thinking again, about important stuff, especially answered prayers.
No roundup is complete without some college football idiocy bordering on “Skeevy Internet Stalkistan.” Leave it to the Vols…
You knew this would happen. Yes, you did. And yes, the world is nuts.

Heard today, somewhere around 5:15 pm on Sean Hannity’s radio show, while driving home:
Dana Perino on politics in Washington – “If you’re not at the table, then you’re on the menu.”
Paraphrased, of course, since I was DRIVING.
Washington has always been a puzzle inside of an enigma. Ever since the ground was broken in the swamplands that would become our nation’s capital, the circus moved in and never went home. Nothing illustrates the depths that the political press are plumbing better than The Anchoress’ ten questions for the White House. Somebody needs to ask them, since our “free press” refuses.
Freedom? Who needs it? Obama believes that democracy is overrated. He views the slaughter of Iranian protestors as “robust debate.” Jeeezzz Louise. His presidency gets more surreal by the day.

Just like an onion. The more you peel, the more layers you find.
Stacy is on it! The Walpin firing is just the tip of the iceberg.
Whatever Walpin’s reputation, however, sources familiar with his dismissal believe it was no accident that he was shown the door immediately after getting into a dispute with Eric Holder’s Justice Department over a program affiliated with Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, an enthusiastic political ally of Obama.
Now there’s more – regarding the Inspector General for Amtrak, Fred Wiederhold. Did Amtrack undermine his authority and/or independence? What about Eleanor Acheson?
Neil Barofsky, the special IG for the TARP free-for-all financial bailout is next. You watch.
Given the controversial nature of the TARP — including the public outcry over bonuses paid to top employees of insurance giant AIG, a bailout beneficiary — Grassley is by no means the only member of Congress interested in preserving Barofsky’s independence. In April, Geithner was grilled by Texas Republican Rep. Jeb Hensarling and other members of Congress at a hearing after Barofsky reported a “staggering” amount of fraud in the bailout program.
