Obama Would Resign to Protect the Nation. Wasn't That Palin's Point?

From USA Today:
"'If it was me, I would resign,' Obama told NBC News.

"Obama also said: 'When you get to the point where, because of various personal distractions, you can't serve as effectively as you need to -- at the time when people are worrying about jobs, and their mortgages, and paying the bills -- then you should probably step back,' Obama told NBC News."
Wasn't protecting Alaska from false ethics charges on the governor and tying up the executive branch there why Governor Palin resigned?

Seems resigning to protect the people you're supposed to serve is not only okay but honorable.

That's an excellent point, Terrance. No surprise that the President doesn't see the inconsistency, and really no surprise that such an insight doesn't crack through the fog in the minds of the monotone media either. Original thinking? Largely frowned upon. Original thinking is unlikely to be right thinking, and right thinking is what they love to print.

The shlubs.
