I didn't have two cameramen, a "reporter" and a person to hold the boom mic with me! Who knew!

5. When, oh WHEN, will they IGNORE the loon?
Ain’t SHE special? Getting the media to fly out to Alaska at her bidding?
All SHE gave them for their trouble was more word salad, and to Andrea Mitchell, “YOU’RE NOT LISTENING TO ME!!”

13. Geez if you think she wanted to be president in 2012
Shouldn't she be in her office on the phone to the top experts in their field what the best route for the country be.

Shouldnt she be researching 24/7 all the major issues facing the world.

Im guessing Kate Snow didnt ask her about this?

16. That last picture
is a perfect pictorial representation of the state of the Republican party today; aimlessly adrift at sea with with a pathetic press trying to get the rest of us to believe that the GOP, with Palin at the helm, is even relevant anymore. "Iceberg...dead ahead!"

Aren't you suposed to use them where it's shallow enough to wade? Looks pretty deep there.

What are they used for?

In Alaska, on the water, you wear waders.

35. If I got thrown in the water for some reason
I wouldn't want to try to stay afloat with those things on.

Back in the day though, during Red Cross Lifesaving training they taught us to take off our jeans, fill them with air and use them as a float. Those things never leave ya'...in the event I fall out of a boat. :P

If you fall into deep water with waders on and you're not wearing a really, really good life jacket you're going to be in some serious trouble.

Oh, sorry, I get it...fishing for more attention.
Surprised the boat doesn't lean with that many people clutching cameras.
She's so pathetic and desperate.

36. "She doesn't even want to live off-camera, much less talk."
Warren Beatty on Madonna from the documentary "Truth or Dare". I think this quote aptly describes Palin as well. The woman craves attention. Everything she does is best understood when looked at in this light.

37. Ship Of Fools
Went to see the captain, strangest I could find,
Laid my proposition down, laid it on the line.
I wont slave for beggars pay, likewise gold and jewels,
But I would slave to learn the way to sink your ship of fools.

Ship of fools on a cruel sea, ship of fools sail away from me.
It was later than I thought when I first believed you,
Now I cannot share your laughter, ship of fools.

Saw your first ship sink and drown, from rockin of the boat,
And all that could not sink or swim was just left there to float.
I wont leave you drifting down, but woh it makes me wild,
With thirty years upon my head to have you call me child.

Ship of fools on a cruel sea, ship of fools sail away from me.
It was later than I thought when I first believed you,
Now I cannot share your laughter, ship of fools.

The bottles stand as empty, as they were filled before.
Time there was and plenty, but from that cup no more.
Though I could not caution all, I still might warn a few:
Dont lend your hand to raise no flag atop no ship of fools.

Ship of fools on a cruel sea, ship of fools sail away from me.
It was later than I thought, when I first believed you,
Now I cannot share your laughter, ship of fools.

It was later than I thought when I first believed you,
Now I cannot share your laughter, ship of fools.

42. She couldn't bear the "full court press" of the liberal media, so she resigned
Tto get away from it all (and spend time with her precious family) she goes off on a fishing trip.

Then she invites Matt Lauer, Andrea Mitchell and a camera crew.

She's a phony lunatic.
