Palin's Cry: Cling to Your God, Guns, Constitution
The Winter Haven News Chief ^ | March 9, 2013 | Mary Toothman

LAKELAND | Former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin was fired up about God and country when she spoke Friday at Southeastern University in Lakeland. And she was dressed for the part.

The 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate visited the Sunshine State at the request of the organizers of the school's seventh annual leadership forum. She was quite a presence on the stage, in a lipstick-red suit and fierce high heels.

Her passionate talk was peppered with such vibrant cries as "Cling to your God, your guns, your Constitution!" and pleas for the next generation to change the country's moral fiber. "That will make our foundation crumble if we choose to ignore it," she said.

Not one to tiptoe around sensitive topics, Palin got right to the point on reasons she said the country is in crisis.

"Today, look around, and don't you wonder sometimes if, as a nation, we have forgotten God altogether? This is a crucial question," she said.

Palin said the school asked her to talk about hope and resilience. She said she would but "not that Washington, D.C., ‘hopey-changey' blah, blah, blah stuff, but real hope."

Mostly, the 49-year-old hammered such topics as the corruption of Washington, D.C. — "It's a hotbed of cronyism" — and federal spending — "The federal government is bloated, corrupt and out-of-control."(continued)

What has happened to her? She looks so different these days.

Lost weight (from long distance running), deeper tan, different hair style and color, and different glasses.

“God deserves so much better than what we give him,” she said. “What has happened when we can’t say his name in public?”

I’ve been ranting in despair around the ranch for awhile now that if we, as in America turn our backs on GOD we turn our backs on the natural rights such as is our freedom that comes with our faith in GOD.

Why!? Because the Left is pushing us away from GOD, and they are succeeding.

The BIG push back is overdue. America has to get back to GOD, and NOW. We must stand with GOD.

I've felt for a long time now, that Palin may likely serve in a similar capacity as Jefferson Davis, except this time, the outcome of the war will be different. Call it a 'vision', or intuition, but I began visualizing that scenario during last year's primary race.

"The contest is not over, the strife is not ended. It has only entered upon a new and enlarged arena, and the principle for which we contend is bound to reassert itself, though it may be at another time and in another form." - Jefferson Davis, speaking before the Mississippi Legislature in 1871

Is it time? And in what form?

LOL yeah right. She’s got a better shot of another reality TV show than winning the Presidency.

Nothing to do with hero worship rather a recognition of a person who truely wants to fight for whats best for the American people rather than people who distort the truth to help beneficial intrest for themselves and not necessarily the best intrest of the American”people”.
