Palin Hopes Bashir's 'Unprovoked' Attack Won't Stop People From Starting A Business

Responding to the resignation of Martin Bashir for the first time, Sarah Palin said once again Thursday that she accepts his apology. She just hopes that the former MSNBC host's "unprovoked" attack won't deter people from embarking on various endeavors like starting a business or "changing within their family."

"My role is to accept his apology and be humble enough to accept it and move on," Palin said during an appearance on "Fox & Friends."

"But I just hope that unprovoked attacks like that don't result in people being hesitant to jump in the arena anyway, to get out there and serve the public or start a business or really commit themselves to changing within their family, their community, their world, doing whatever that they can, despite the fact that in this world, you are gonna be hurt and attacks will come your way. I just hope an attack like that doesn't make people hesitate."

Whut?

I hope his attacks don't prevent people from enjoying milk shakes.

Dick Cheney or Sarah Palin?

Sarah Palin is a narcissistic pile of shit. She obviously believes whatever affects her, effects the entire world at large. If someone tells her off, it causes an earthquake on the other side of the world. All people are scared, because Sarah is scared. Me me me me!

Or maybe they deterred me from sticking my leg in a running wood chipper. As I recall, I didn't do either, so his words obviously had a deep effect on my life.

By the way, Sarah: I recommend decaf.

some of the few things that anger my parents or my baby over all these years. Americans need to know this. We need leaders, because Ohio, the far-left wing of the Democrat Party, we don’t quite know what, some increasingly impatient neighbor, things like fruit fly research in Paris and bells. I have a vast comfortable analogy for me and will exist for social networking sites like this. Because hearing a word, it's easy to get these wonderful little pockets, and even if it's cracked up a little bit as being so imperfect, a propensity for denial and lies will reduce the cost of goodwill toward men. I suppose I could play who will suffer the most, isn't that ironic? The war on free Obamaphone vouchers in Alaska is the tip of the spear riding his horse through town. I couldn’t have said it better myself"

The ThingsRepublicansLike subroutine appears to have inserted a call to itself into several points of the general TalkAboutMe program, resulting in excess gibberish, above even the high design parameters of this model. This may have resulted from operating this model beyond its warranty period (expired Sept 3rd 2008), and overheating the Blatant Lie tolerance with the phrase "my role is to...be humble".

Or, if it's flat out irrational, illogical, and borderline insane?

I have this problem often when it comes to sorting out statements the Tea Party's spokespeople make. Someone should write one of those "For Dummies" books that translates Tea Party speak to plain english.
