Sarah Palin, beloved politician turned author, speaker, commentator, reality TV star and professional celebrity, turns 47 years young today.

Happy birthday to the Thrilla from Wasilla!

Chances are, you aren’t indifferent about Sarah Palin. You worship the ground she walks on and hang on her every word, or wish she’d never been born.

Or, in the case of Tracy Morgan … you know what, forget it.

Regardless, she sure keeps things interesting and gets us talking with her unique brand of conservativism and self-promotion. Going Rogue, if you will …

Palin Packin' HEAT!

Happy birthday, Sarah! Hope you find a fun way to celebrate!

If nothing else, let’s give thanks today for a woman who always gives us something to write about. There’s no better content-generating machine than this.

Speculation continues to swirl about her political future. Will she run for President in 2012? Can she possibly go a week without putting her foot in her mouth?

We’ll have to wait and see. But in honor of her birthday, which she shares with Taylor Lautner, we put together a little greatest hits package of sorts below.
