PALIN QUITS TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH FAMILY OF GUNS

by R J Shulman

JUNEAU, Alaska - Sarah Palin revealed today the real reason she is stepping down as governor of Alaska is to spend more time with her beloved arsenal of firearms. "Instead of dodging bullets, I'd rather be shooting them," she told reporters.

Republican leaders are disappointed that Palin, a rising star in the GOP resigned her post before the end of her term. "I think she was a bit trigger happy about her decision to quit," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, "Resigning kind of blows a hole in her credibility as a leader." Palin immediately shot back, "McConnell should aim at the real enemies of America, the Democrats and not someone like me who is a staunch supporter of the Second Amendment to the Bible."

When asked if she has set her sights on the 2012 Presidential race, Palin said, "I'll be setting my sights all right, but my aim will be on anyone else running for President."

Palin said that immediately following her last day in office, she will take a month long hunting trip. "There is no better way to get close to the Lord," Palin said, "than to wander through the Almighty's beautiful countryside killong God's creatures."
