On the day Sarah Palin left office, we expressed a simple wish for her future:
"Whatever she ends up doing, all we can say is, we hope that microphones will always surround her, and that she continues to share her mavericky wisdom with the world, until it is time to quit that job, too."Thank you Caribou Barbie and FOX News for making our dreams come true.
That said, let the Palin mockery begin anew:

There is only one reason Fox would select Palin as a news person. That reason would be to stir up contraversy with the shock value. Everyone including Fox knows full well she isn’t qualified for the job. She might have to remember something.
It appears that some people still can’t tell the difference between Tina Fey and Sarah Palin.
Part of her problem is being from Alaska, instead of New England. The elites can stand anyone that went somewhere besides the “Ivy League” schools
