Alaska governor Sarah Palin strode through the produce section of Juneau's Fred Meyer supermarket Saturday morning, smiling and waving with an entourage of youngsters in tow.
"These are my children, Willow, Piper and [11-month-old] Trig," Palin told an excited group of Girl Scouts. Then Palin, 45, motioned to a baby bundled in a hoodie, held and bottle-fed by Piper. "And this is my grandbaby Tripp," she said of the infant son of her daughter Bristol, 18.
"He's only 2-months-old. It's kind of surreal!," she added.
Palin was taking a break from governing the nation's largest state to help Juneau's Girl Scout Troop 32 sell cookies after the group lost all for their previous proceeds in a robbery the week before. "I read about it in the newspaper and I said, 'Well, me and the kids have an hour on Saturday, let's go down and help,'" she explained. "This age is so precious."

Sarah is getting plenty of Brownie points in my book! :)
Who was the POS that robbed the girl scouts ?
Once again Sarah Palin shows that she’s a really classy lady.
In some small way, I now feel justified buying those last minute boxes of Thin Mints yesterday.
It’s amazing to me that anyone with at least an ounce of common sense and something other than a completely black heart wouldn’t love this woman.
“This age is so precious.”
that must be before the publik skuelz teach them about condoms.
Coldest state, hotest Grandma Governor.
I sold BS cookies at one time,and I was’nt a BS.But my sisters made me do it.HONEST
Sooner or later, Palin is gonna realize some folks just ain’t gonna vote for her because they’re tired of hearing about her.
And yet you posted on this thread.
Was this a Sarah Palin initiated press conference?
No, it was Sarah Palin trying to help out some Girl Scouts and the press followed her.
And that day ain’t today, n00b...
But you go ahead and jump if you’re feeling froggy...
I don't care when you joined the boards, anybody that trolls Palin threads just to post some stupid comment like that is in fact a troll.
Piss off pom-pom boy...
A bridge somewhere seems to be missing its troll....
Or a piece of TP is missing its schmear
Why are you being so needlessly insulting?
How is she supposed to rebuild her image that was trashed last year?
She’s running for re-election you know.
He hates anything conservative. Early sign up dates mean nothing.
You got that right - that's why I held my nose and voted for McCain/Palin last go 'round...
***Sooner or later, Palin is gonna realize some folks just ain’t gonna vote for her because they’re tired of hearing about her.***
Okay, let’s all vote for someone we can’t find out anything about, like Obama.
Maybe she and her daughters could actually keep their drawers up.
Ya, know I have the same situation...Thank God for caring Grandma’s and Grandpa’s!!! It’s hard facing the judgement of this kind of situation, but if you know the Lord, He will give you the best advice...Forget all the voices who know better than Him. It is comforting to know you have a friend in the Lord of Lords when other people are their to judge the situation...All things work together for good, for those who know Him! That is the wholehearted difference of knowing a loving God and for those who seek His council rather than seeking the good graces of man.
Seems you've fallen for it.
You are a complete and utter moron who only posted that to get a reaction. It worked. Fool.
I'll admit she wasn't quite ready for prime time- especially when hitched to McQuisiling. Still, on her own, free from the 'handlers' and having some time to 'brighten' her convictions this diamond in the rough will shine like no other in the next election cycle.
You'll know just how brilliant she'll be by the Left's efforts to tarnish her. They're screwed in '012 and they know it. Sarah is from Alaska- the Last Frontier. The symbolism ought to scare.
America as we know it may be teetering on an edge. As a former Alaskan, she represents something those of us in the lower 48 can only partially appreciate. Alaska is big (almost twice the size of Texas and we got it cheap from Russia), Sarah is big.
This is a girl I could enthusiastically vote for president. Her heart's in the right place. And, I wouldn't be the first to have traveled to Alaska looking for gold. At the top of the ticket, she could be the next gold rush. North to Alaska is a direction conservatives might want to consider on their next cruise.
Former “temporary” alaskan here, too...I loved it. Ft. Yukon was my favorite - we could always boat into fish camp. Indian Mountain wasn’t as hospitable but we still made the best of it.
Didn't you get the memo? She's supposed to stay at home like a good Muslim wife.
Mine, too. I click on every Palin pick and then I read all the posts to see if anyone posted pictures of her. I love that woman. She’s my hero.
(I think I have a girl crush on her. And I know I’m not alone in that ;-))
Coldest state, hottest Grandma Governor with the warmest heart, the quickest mind and the most testicular fortitude.
And then she will ......................
Go ahead, fill in the blanks Tom.
Conseratives don't have the luxury of time- as the average voter has demonstated by voting for 'change'.
Real 'change' would be a return to our founding fundamentals- not what we have today. A charismatic conservative could pull this off easily, Sarah's appeal and foundation might be just what it takes to put this train 'back on the track'. Socialist de-railment needs to be called for what it is: bad mojo for America.
Wow way to raise the dialog. It really hurts to be rejected by an intellect such as yourself.
Could you in that situation, Tom...Are you a monk???
The lamestream media has been successful in marginalizing her...because she is a threat...I have a feeling she will not be intimidated like you.
That was uncalled for. Sarah is a married woman. She and her husband can have as many babies as they please. And her “daughters”? There is no need to insult Willow and Piper, too. Bristol got pregnant. Big deal. She isn’t the first 17 yr old to get pregnant.
Geez, this really pisses me off...I’m thinking that this guy is either a monk or lives so far in the back woods that he has forgotten what is going on in the real un-perfect world.
Sheez, rats like to make a judgement when this scenario happens, while all along they are advocating “abort”. Get rid of the problem...
I just really wish the press would lay off of her daughter.
There’s nothing more painful than watching your kid go through “growing pains”. The last thing this family needs is the vile, nosy abuse that the press heaps on them.
Anyone on or off the Palin ping, write me.
........
Great to see a good natured article on our lovely Governor Palin.
ROFL!
A real gotcha.
Some day some people are going to realize that Sarah Palin really does not care what they think.
Oh my, you are one disgusting individual. Somehow I suspect Sarah Palin has no problems such as you accuse her of. Her life has shown quite the opposite.
Your posts here however do show you need size 14 shoes and a size 2 hat.
Perhaps. But the new or undecided voters that are drawn to this grand lady will be exponentially greater than the loss of those who follow their petty whims rather than their good sense.
The more the press and the libs lay into Sarah over her family and values, the more it will rebound against them as her values and the family's wholesomeness, even in difficult circumstances, resonates with the people.
