Flakiness Is All Around Us
Jennifer Rubin just can't help herself. She is (mostly) nice to other conservatives though mildly scolds David Brooks from time to time for his starry-eyed support of Barack Obama. But resigning from office is TOO MUCH!!!
"Some are debating whether [Palin's] critics “won” by chasing her off the stage. Well, she chased herself off the stage and chose not to even fulfill her responsibilities to the state that elected her and put her on the stage. (Really, you mean she couldn’t have finished her term and refused national appearances for the balance of her term to lessen the media scrutiny? Hmmm.)"
I don't remember the uproar when Barack Obama resigned in the middle of his term as senator and did not choose to fulfill his responsibilities to the state that elected him and put him on the stage. Or Joe Biden. Or governors Janet Napolitano and Kathleen Sebelius.Flakiness is all around us, but some have only selective flakiness perception.

You cannot see the difference between Obama and Biden resigning
becasue they had become President and Vice President, and Jane Napolitano and Kathleen Sebelius resigning to take up cabinent positions, and Sarah Palin resigning becasue she....well, becasue she is what? The most charitable answer is "She wants to cash in with a book tour and TV show with FOX". Can you see how that doesn't really stack up very well in terms of public service compared to your other four examples?
And on Monday, when the real story comes out (federal indictment for fraud and embezzlement) it is going to look even worse.
