Palin Abdicates Gubernatorial Seat

Alaska governor Sarah Palin turned over executive control of the state to Sean Parnell, saying that if she served a lame duck year in the office, it would not benefit anyone. What do you think?

“Beautiful, a liar, and a quitter. God, I haven’t been this aroused by the thought of a woman in two years.”

Old Woman

Dawn Pitkin,
Garment Inspector
“Nothing can distract her laser focus from the ultimate prize: the Fields Medal.”

Old Man

Pat Wasserstrom,

"With this Sean Parnell guy coming in, at least they won't have to change the initials carved into the caribou-antler throne that has served as the ceremonial seat of Alaskan governors since 1959."
