- The best news of the day comes for once from Sarah Palin
>> Twenty-eight people were arrested after "mayhem broke out" at the Occupy Wall Street protest last night. The demonstration, that included large unions, started off peacefully, but by 8 p.m., people tried to push through the barricades and some police responded with violence. Sorry that you got peppersprayed, protester girl, at least America likes you. (Fox News, Politicker)
>> Pakistan warned Afghanistan today to behave themselves now that Afghanistan signed a pact with India, Pakistan's archenemy. Furthermore, Afghanistan accused Pakistan of being involved with last month's suicide bombing in Kabul that killed former Afghan President Burhanuddin Rabbani. But despite deep-rooted issues, to Americans, they're all still against "us." (CBS News)
>> Presidential candidate Herman Cain is leading the Republican nomination in some polls, yet his schedule is more about promoting his book than a political campaign. Nineteen of the 31 days of this month are blank, and he's opting to visit a Costco in suburban Virginia instead of a key primary state like New Hampshire. It's all part of the Black Walnut's unconventional ways! (the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, CNN)
>> And finally: "After much prayer and serious consideration, I have decided that I will not be seeking the 2012 GOP nomination for President of the United States," wrote Sarah Palin in a letter last night announcing she will not run for president. Finally, some good news! But will she run as a third-party candidate? Dear God no! (ABC News)
