    And ironically, Palin posted on her Facebook today a message to Obama imploring him to declare that the U.S. is in the war on terror to "win it."

    She can't complete a term in office or a Turkey Trot, but she is going to give national security advice to the President via Facebook?!

    @Atilla the Bun: Actually, Facebook is entirely befitting of her stature in any policy debate.
    It would be even more appropriate if she was posting to the StormFront bulletin board or Fox News comments section under the name "S4rah_P!".

    She was just disappointed that the race didn't include an actual turkey shoot, so she put the double-gauge back on safety and went home.

    She didn't quit. Like any good point guard, she simply passed the ball. Then she took a seat on the bench and started waving a towel around.

    Of course, if she hadn't been carrying a basketball in a 5K race in the first place, she might not have gotten tired out so quickly.

    Lay off, people. She simply made the decision that she could run more effectively outside of the official running area and/or distance. Why do you elitists in the MSM (Mainstream Marathons) not understand? Besides, five KILOMETERS? Metric? What is this, The People's Socialist Republic of Gayterrorstan?

I'm pretty sure you won't catch Huckabee naming any of his kids like he's been dropping acid and engaging in consequence free lovin' at the commune.
