Palin steps down as Alaska governor

Posted by Scott Swanson on 7/26/09 • Categorized as Natural Disasters, North America, Politics

Per CNN, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has stepped down as Governor.

“Now people who know me, they know how much I love this state … I feel it is my duty to avoid the unproductive, typical, politics-as-usual, lame-duck session in one’s last year in office,” Palin said, just moments before Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell was sworn in as governor.

“With this decision, now I will be able to fight even harder for you, for what is right and for the truth,” Palin continued. “And I have never felt you need a title to do that.”

With those comments, Twitterers in Alaska appear to be ashamed of Palin’s actions.

  • So long Sarah,

    You are very qualified to speak for Republicans, but you are not qualified to run our country.

    You will always be my favorite milf.
  • The resignation ceremony itself was dignified yet highly emotional.
