Sarah Palin, the most important person in the world

Did somebody make Sarah Palin president when I wasn't looking? The former half-term Alaska governor is all over the web sites of some of the nation's leading news organizations, for no better reason than that she (or someone in her employ) seems to have updated her Facebook page. Oh, and gave a couple of speeches to friendly audiences, in which she revealed -- wait for it -- that she supports drilling for oil and likes guns. Stop the presses!
