Unskilled and unemployable housewife Sarah Palin seems to be spending all of her time in her room these days Facebooking and Twattering and IMing and texting and stuff so she really  does not have time for you and your stupid petition:

Organizers of an Anchorage event that has been billing Sarah Palin for weeks as a star speaker were left scrambling Wednesday after learning that the former governor won’t be there for tonight’s event and claims to have never been asked.

[...]

This time it’s an event promoting an Alaska ballot measure aimed at making it illegal for teens to get an abortion without telling their parents. The Alaska Family Council has been advertising that Palin would give a speech and become the first official signer of the ballot petition tonight at ChangePoint, the Anchorage megachurch.

It’s not that Sarah wouldn’t like to go share moose Hot Pockets and Mr. Pibb with the ChangePointers but she’s taken a look at the proposed legislation and she does not want. Because if teens have to tell their parents that they’re pregnant (again) and they need  the keys to the Astrovan to go get an abortion (again) Sarah runs the risk of never getting a moments rest, what with Pumice and Chisel and little Rowboat always knocking on the door of her home Governors office Oprah Watching Room when she’s busy on the internet.

"Mom–?"

"Try again.."

"Mo– [sigh]  Okay. ‘Northern Mama Bear Princess Hotter-Than-I Will-Ever-Be’,  my period is la—"

"Pumice, or Rowboat, whichever one you are…can this wait until you daddy gets back from sno-karting? I’m kinda busy right now and —OMFG! Lindsay Lohan is SUCH a skank! Look at this! Awesome! I have to text Meg. LOL!"

"[sigh]"

"Chisel? Hon? Be a dear and go get  mommy another Harvey Wallbanger. Daddy left a pitcher in the fridge."

"I hate you and wish I had never been born."

"Yeah, well get in line sister. Now chop-chop, I’m not getting any younger and that Wallbanger isn’t going to waltz in here by itself."

So, as you can see, the whole parental notification thing would be kind of inconvenient…
