Sarah Palin has the opportunity to tour America and let little girls know how they can be like her. Since she has kids (yes, she does...), she can bring her message for little girls to do when they grow up.

Here are just a few of the lessons she can bring.

When the going gets tough, first act like everyone is picking on you. Do it with a smirk that fades into a smile. Add a wink and a cute nod when you make the delivery. Purse your lips in a half-smile and glare around the room looking "for enemies". Oh, you betcha, they are there. Poor little you. All getting picked on and stuff. By golly, it's just not fair!

This is just the beginning.

As things get tougher in life, there is always the other option. Sure, you can see the finish line in the race. Sure, you can see the basket at the other end of the court and see your teammates all around you.

When it justs too hard and you feel like people are picking on you, quit! Stop! Put the ball down and walk out of the gym. Make sure to tell people that you are good at playing the game. And then just leave.

If you are a soldier in a war, put your gun down and run away. Quit!

If you are in the Fire Department trying to stop a fire, just walk away from the fire. Quit!

If you are in a traffic jam on a busy highway, turn the car off and just walk away. Quit!

If you are in a relationship that takes a slight turn and you have a difficult day, call it off. Quit!

If you are a poet writing a poem and the rhyme starts to get difficult, rip the paper up. Quit!

If you are a doctor operating on a patient and you'd rather be golfing, put the surgical tools down and take that operating gown off. Leave! Go! Quit!

Sarah Palin has proven to be the Poster Person for Quitting. Not quitting a bad habit... oh, no. When life is too hard and you think that no one appreciates you and they seem to be picking on you, just quit.

After all, Palin has proven to those that thought she was a bad example of a feminist (and perhaps a lousy mother) that she would rather have her legacy as a quitter and make people think that quitting is something women are good at.

Finally, after quitting, leave the impression that you quit for a good reason. Be sure to think that you can quit and there are no consequences.

Never quit thinking that when you quit that you are a quitter. That's Sarah Palin's lesson for all the little girls.

It might make a good summer report paper for school in the fall. Start the paper and quit in the middle of writing it. Perfect!

1. Palin has many more lessons to impart
Lie, cheat, manipulate, slander, scoff, flirt, use, serve only yourself, and steal.

All good solid Extreme Republican values which are at the top of the list for 'Real Americans"

3. When, during a debate with a man, wink at the cameras.
She really is a great role model for my 4 and 5 year old daughters...not.

5. I remember shuddering when she winked at the camera...
It took the woman's movement back 12 years in a single wink.
