Sarah Palin announced she is quitting her Governorship of the state of Alaska. Even after supposedly explaining her reasons, no one can figure it out. No one but of course ME.
This editorial cartoon gives you a peek inside her head and shows the real reason Sarah is quitting.
Follow me via TWITTER updates. or you can…
Hey – I could understand that. I mean, webcartooning makes me one totally busy dude. Really. And I’m sure I could grab a speaking engagement or two. Really. Hmmm …
I’d pay to see you. Let’s see what do I have in my pocket….how’s 57 cents, some lint and a half piece of gum?
What kinda gum?
cinammon of course.
Ha! I am now link monster. How much you want for the gum?
57 cents so I can double my money.
Does that include shipping and handling? Is there a “But Wait” moment, like I get a free gum wrapper with it if I pay extra shipping and handling? Shopaholic minds want to know. These things are important. Sarah? She ain’t buying no gum: she’s off fishing, or maybe just off.
For $100, I’ll send you an entire pack and sign it..ha ha
I’ll give you sixty cents if the gum isn’t already chewed. Thirty if it is (and you have an autographed certificate of authenticity).
Oh, it’s a bidding contest you want, huh George? Okay: sixty one cents and bearman can fake the autograph . . . wait . . . huh?
She’s decided to become a community organizer so she’ll be more qualified for the presidency.
Too funny…welcome to the madhouse nick.
i dont likeher and all her “family values” crap is definitely hard to believe. the media whores are hard at work in america right along with the all the over rated celebutrash! sorry michelle obama- don’t like you either. don’t smoke the hopium!
Spoken like a true noncommital Libertarian..ha ha j/k
i don’t drink the american koolaid either and i’m sick of the american sheeple following politics blindly without any real research other than mainstream media (CNN and FOX News). i get my news from independent sources–but that’s just me. on another note: i loved your comic today. yeah unfortunately it’s all about the almightly dollar in this country- and seeing just how much crap one can amass. see? this is why i cant comment on politics- i’m too passionate about my beliefs! great post bearman!!
i’m comitted to anything that’s in the Constitution, otherwise the govt can butt out of my business. bearman, you are very intuitive…..have a great day!
At the end of the day, there are few people (self included) that don’t have the almighty dollar in mind on a consistent basis. Personally I don’t fault Palin if this indeed is the reason. I think it is in poor taste the people that will lambast her for her decision b/c they think it might hurt the party.
Sometimes you have to look out for what is best for yourself
that’s the problem bearman, it’s become all about the party and not the people.
After she’s done shootin’ all the moose in Alaska, maybe she’ll start a witch huntin’ club. She got em driven out once, she can sure do it again. Wonder what it cost for a good witch hunt nowadays?
See Jammer…you are more involved in politics than me so I have to research now to figure out what you are talking about..ha ha
Definitely all about the money with Sarah!
But not with YNB?
money is such a relative thing. we need it to survive yes but greed is by far something totally different. perhaps i mispoke…greedy people and corporations are my problem. american businesses closing down here to open up in mexico for the added profit. like walmart for example, i can’t stand that store. did you know that they take out “dead peasant” policies on you once you are hired? see this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ik30ijaBgUA. very interesting..
In my mind there is Greedy (which I don’t mind) and deceptive or downright unlawful like a Madoff. I think that link about Walmart is disturbing that they would do that. I understand it for Executives or certain positions. However, we are quick to judge Walmart when many other companies do the same thing. So is it Walmart’s fault (among others) or the government underwriting requirements for allowing someone to take out a life insurance policy on someone else without their knowledge. (Think this loophole has been closed)
odd for a politician to feel the pull of money isnt it lol
true true…but usually it is, I need a billion dollars for my state to build a highway with my name on it.
Nice toon Bear, honestly, I hope she’s just trying to monetize her fame and not because she wants to run for president in 2012.
Either way, I am sure the media will go overboard in the coverage.
Of course its about the money.
Gotta finish paying those bills for all of those pesky ethics complaints that she’s been bombarded with this year.
G you changed your gravatar…what is that a dog???
Only for WordPress blogs. I still have the skeleton draped over the computer monitor as normal.
I broke down last week and signed up with gravatar.com.
Yes, it’s a dog. I call him “Hong Kong Phooey”.
Is he “number one super guy?”
Which day job? Gov’na or the next contestant on “I’m a Celebrity Get Me Outta Here”?
Well she has to qualify for being a bigger celebrity than Speidi or Blagoyavich’s wife
You did a really good job on Sarah Palin, Bearman. Now, may I have my turn on her? (insert drumroll please). But, no, really, you outdid yourself on this one. And I totally agree with you. Why would she want to remain a lowly paid governor when she can make more just doing speaking engagements and posing in Playboy?
I thought that meant you were going to send me an editorial cartoon.
I’ve got ya! I have to find my muse. I haven’t been passionate since Oprah screwed me outta my free grilled KFC chicken that time.
Had the chicken…wasn’t worth the hype.
Anything free tastes good by my count.
I miss Sarah already… And now I am over her.
You are fickle that way.
I just think she is crazy
Crazy ha ha or crazy woo hoo?
George
I’ll give you sixty cents if the gum isn’t already chewed. Thirty if it is (and you have an autographed certificate of authenticity).

It is more expensive if it has been chewed. See above Jammer…I’ll send you a WHOLE pack and sign it for a mere $100.
