Sarah Palin resigns as Alaska governor: Is a talk show far behind? Just when the recent Sarah Palin media circus -- her feud with David Letterman ; her spandex-happy photo spread in Runner's World ; the recent damning Vanity Fair profile of her -- couldn't get any weirder, the former GOP vice-presidential candidate just announced she will resign the governorship of Alaska at the end of the month , two-and-a-half years into her first term.

... the Twit of the Tundra's brain droppings are laden with coded messages? Coded messages like "I will kill David Letterman for raping my daughters" and "bloggers who make fun of Trig will be eaten" and "Todd is a creepy tool with a room temperature IQ and I don't need his dumb ass," among other things.

My first thought looking at it was, “Could she have really posed for this? I mean, she did don the red sweatshirt on her book cover .” But, nope. Mystery solved. The image came from the August issue of Runner’s World magazine, where she posed for several images in jogging gear—some with Trigg , some without —and gave such deep quotes as, “It doesn’t matter your ...

First up, there's the douchebaggery of Newsweek in using the photo. Runner's World, who first published the photos of Palin in her running attire, had this to say : EDITOR'S NOTE: On the cover of this week's issue of Newsweek is a photo that was shot for the August 2009 issue of Runner's World, in which Sarah Palin was featured on the monthly "I'm a Runner" back page. Runner's World did not provide ...

... As for Newsweek, their spokesperson admits, "We purchased the photo from an agency and were not aware of any issues with it."
