There has been considerable commentary of the negative kind concerning Palin's seemingly irrational move of stepping down as the governor of Alaska, with 18 months still left on her gubernatorial term. It was widely considered an irrational, unwise move. Her actions produced ridicule from both the liberal democratic and conservative republican parties. Adding insult to injury is yet another derogatory news report, this recently posted out at cnn.com, inferring internal problems may run deep within Palin monarchy, even though the report actually states that no irregularities are actually being investigated. (The Guilt by inference ploy, and other dirty politics.)
http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/07/06/sarah.palin.fbi/index.html I listened to Palin's long and rambling resignation speech over the weekend. While her commentary might have a tendency to amuse many liberals (and perhaps frustrate a few conservatives, I personally think it would be exceedingly unwise to count her out as a future political contender. Not by a long shot. What seems clear to me is that Palin's goodbye speech was just the beginning of what I expect will turn out to be a continuous salvo of Palin commentary concerning the dire state of the nation, the very soul of the United States. And just who do you think has got it all figured out. Who would just love to lead "Joe Six-Pack" and "the plumber" back to economic greatness for which God intended fiercely self-reliant independent souls to be, who only want to pull themselves up by their own boot straps while flipping the finger at the horrible evils of socialism and what it stands for. So, just what are Palin's political plans? Many apparently believe her latest actions have done an excellent job of sabotaging any future political plans she might harbor within the Republican party. Some might even assert that Palin's recent actions have done nothing more than make her a political pariah. I suspect Palin doesn't think so, or perhaps I should state that I suspect she doesn't care. And that's the vital clue: she doesn't care. Personally, I suspect Palin to be enough of a queen bee to have made the decision that she is no longer interested in gaining favoritism to run for president under the Republican platform. Start looking for the newly created Palin Party, the new conservative party with a goal of gutting the tattered Republican party. Eventually, her party might not be called the Palin Party. In fact, Palin may eventually end up running for president in 2012, or 2016 under the Republican party. But make no mistake, if she does so, it will be Palin's party. I suspect "Joe Six Pack" and "the Plumber" will love it. Palin will get their vote. We do not need to watch out for the coming of Planet Nibiru and what dire predictions that celestial event threatens to wreak upon the planet. Planet Palin has already been sighted and it's heading for a neighborhood near you. In terms of future energy independence and related scientific research it might be wise to start preparing contingency plans now under the possibility of enduring a future Palin administration. But I hope not. Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
