Palin's empty goodbyes

Sarah Palin briefly mentioned the oh-so-cruel media in her farewell speech:

"You represent what could and should be a respected, honest profession that could and should be a cornerstone of our democracy. Democracy depends on you, and that is why -- that's why our troops are willing to die for you. So how about in honor of the American soldier, you quit makin' things up."

Oh, those evil journalists – how dare they attack her for her incredible idiocy, when there are those heroic patriotic soldiers dying for something that's completely irrelevent to the media's coverage of incredible idiots? Ah, the festering gases of demagoguery. Always pleasant.

No wonder she's getting offers for her own right-wing radio show – she'd probably eclipse Rush Limbaugh, a feat that would be aided by the thorough ass-kissing he's always eager to give her.
