Wow! This will work out great for me
because I have so many thought-disordered
people in my family!

Now the *world* can see what a thought-
disorder is.
These kinds of people are like
real-life cartoons.
Eventually, people will think it is sad
and pitiful.
And then the self-alleged brain experts
will be expected to parse selfishness or
self-centeredness from the innate cognitive
inability to reason or stay on topic.
And if they don't or can't, then psychiatry
will self-diagnose, also, in public.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Sarah Palin, former Alaska governor and 2008
Republican vice presidential candidate, will return to her broadcast
roots and take her conservative message to Fox News as a regular
commentator, the cable channel announced Monday.
"I am thrilled to be joining the great talent and management team at
Fox News," Palin said in a statement posted on the network's Web site.
"It's wonderful to be part of a place that so values fair and balanced
news."
Fox said that according to the multiyear deal, Palin will offer
political commentary and analysis on the cable channel, as well as
Fox's Web site, radio network and business cable channel.
She also will host occasional episodes of Fox News' "Real American
Stories," a series debuting this year that the network said will
feature true inspirational stories about Americans who have overcome
adversity.
"Governor Palin has captivated everyone on both sides of the political
spectrum and we are excited to add her dynamic voice to the FOX News
lineup," Bill Shine, executive vice president of programming, said in
a statement.
The network declined to say when Palin will start or how much she is
being paid. Also unclear is how the arrangement will work, whether
Palin will move to New York or commute from Alaska. Company
representatives did not respond to calls seeking comment and Palin's
spokeswoman, Meghan Stapleton, did not respond to e-mails seeking
comment.
Palin, 45, is hugely popular with conservatives and has more than 1.1
million Facebook followers.
She stepped down as Alaska governor in July, 17 months before the end
of her first term in office and less than a year after she vaulted to
overnight fame as John McCain's running mate.
The bombshell resignation stunned even supporters and fueled
widespread speculation on her next career step — with predictions
ranging from seeking the presidency in 2012 to hosting a conservative
talk show. She told Barbara Walters in November that a 2012
presidential bid was not on her radar but added she wouldn't rule out
playing some kind of role in the next presidential election.
Since resigning, Palin has had colossal success with her best-selling
memoir "Going Rogue," released four months after she left office. She
finished a nationwide tour in December after hitting some of the
political battleground states from the 2008 election and drawing
thousands of fans.
If she were to seek the presidency, her new job would provide yet
another stage from which to advance her conservative platform. Former
Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who sought the presidency in 2008, also
hosts a talk show on Fox News and hasn't ruled out another run for
president.
Palin majored in journalism with an emphasis on broadcasting at the
University of Idaho and worked part-time as a weekend sportscaster in
1988 for KTUU-TV in Anchorage. She wasn't married at the time and used
her maiden name Heath. The station's sports director, John Carpenter,
said the young broadcaster left after a few months because of the low
pay.
Carpenter said he was sorry to see her go. She was a hard worker who
enjoyed the entire process, not just being in front of the cameras, he
said.
"She knew sports, she could talk sports, she looked OK on TV,"
Carpenter said. "She had the aptitude, no question."
Palin's upcoming commentary career had her Facebook fans giddy with
excitement Monday.
"Tell 'em like it is girl!!!!!!," one person wrote on a post.
"I look forward to seeing you on Fox....but I hope it doesn't prevent
you from running in '12!," another wrote.
