Though it is embarrassing to admit this in public, I can no longer hide the truth. I have a Sarah Palin problem.

I have written about her in 42 columns since Sen. John McCain picked her as his presidential running mate in 2008. I've mentioned her in dozens more blog posts, Web chats, and TV and radio appearances. I feel powerless to control my obsession, even though it cheapens and demeans me.

But today is the first day of the rest of my life. And so, I hereby pledge that, beginning on Feb 1, 2011, I will not mention Sarah Palin - in print, online or on television - for one month. Furthermore, I call on others in the news media to join me in this pledge of a Palin-free February. With enough support, I believe we may even be able to extend the moratorium beyond one month, but we are up against a powerful compulsion, and we must take this struggle day by day.

The last time the DUmbshits on the left tried a stunt like this, Comrade Billy Jeff couldn't make it 10 days without bringing up Mr. Limbaugh.

I give the mouth breathers at the WaPo 6 days before they can't stand not ranting, raving or blaming Sarah for something.  They're just constitutionally incapable of the kind of self discipline required here.

Dana's problems started when his parents gave him a metrosexual/unisex name. :whatever:
Plus, he's a huge wanking douchebag.

Current Vegas line has the over/under at 3 days.  I'll take the under.

What a self-absorbed tool.  Like most journalists, and especially columnists, really.

The only time I've ever heard of Dana Millbank was when he made an ass of himself on MSNBC.

Ignoring him shouldn't be difficult.  He's not exactly a household name. :wink:

Milbank reminds me of those Goodbye Cruel World posts on lefty sites....in that cry for attention sort of way.  Though if he simply stopped writing about Sarah, would anyone have noticed ?  :yawn:
