In the spirit of civil discourse, I'd like to humbly suggest that Sarah Palin please consider being quiet for a while. Perhaps a great while.

At the risk of being bold, I might observe that her faux-presidential address about the Tucson massacre seemed to fall somewhat flat, drawing comparisons to the least attractive public moments of such figures as Richard Nixon and Spiro Agnew. I could go so far as to observe that Palin almost seemed to portray herself as a collateral victim. Surely a former governor of Alaska - who served the better part of an entire term - would never seek to give the impression that she views any conceivable event, no matter how distant or tragic, as being All About Sarah.

Yet this is the unfortunate impression that Palin's videotaped peroration seems to have left. I am at a loss to recommend any course of corrective action other than an extended period of abstinence from Facebook, Twitter and other social networking sites.

"A man put himself on fire in Tunisia three weeks ago. Today, the Tunisian government is gone. Men have set themselves on fire in Algeria and in Egypt the past few days. If you want to talk politics, let’s talk Northern Africa. If that situation spreads, it will soon reach the Middle East, re: Saudi Arabia, and then the US will have a humongous - oil- problem on its hands. Lots of overtime hours at the CIA. And here's waiting for the first American to tackle spontaneous combustion."
