U.S. News and World Report posted a story: “10 Reasons Sarah Palin Would Make a Good President.”

Its listed reasons:

1. Unbending Conservative
2. Military Hawk
3. Oil Drilling Advocate
4. Respects Governors
5. Revive Saturday Night Live
6. Friend of the Working Class
7. Advocate for Disabled Children
8. First Woman President
9. Boost Conservative Media
10. Fashion Statement

May I add mine own?

11. Put up with a lot of crap from a media that gave Barack Obama a pass on his association with terrorists, racists and crooks.

12. Took on Exxon and won.

13. Took on Frank Murkowski and won.

14. Was cleared of 26 ethics charges making her the cleanest politician in the land.

15. Actually leads people.

16. Actually leads people by example.

17. Todd Palin. He is the husband I would want if I were a woman.

18. Has balanced a budget.

19. Has cut taxes.

20. Not an Ivy Leaguer. The last non-Ivy Leaguer president we had was Ronald Reagan.

Uuummm.....a fierce advocate for getting a pro-amnesty, pro-global warming, pro-campaign finance reform candidate reelected to the US senate?

21. She knows a two-bit phony when she sees one and won’t sit down and be quiet like other potential candidates.
22. She knows how to explain complicated issues so that average people can understand them.
23. She is grounded in the spirit and can lead a lost nation to re-find itself.
24. She will inspire women to seek a greater role in politics.
25. She will scare hell out of the political class.
26. She will put government back on the side of the people.
27. Established a $5 billion rainy day fund for the State of Alaska.

Good points!

But regarding #17:

17. Todd Palin. He is the husband I would want if I were a woman.

I'm a single woman, and I would never want anyone's husband but my own.

She supports conservative veterans who are running for Congress instead of the hand-picked GOP establishment androids.

She loves America and is a great supporter of our military and their families
She would never bow to any head of state
She would bring dignity back to the Oval Office

What is more important, loyalty to a washed up old RINO that has assisted in the damage we are seeing inflicted in this country or loyalty to the country? Your trust in her loyalty is misguided. Her loyalty to Juan McCain is no different than Obamas to Geoge Soros.

The reason this country is where it is right now is because there are far too few voters that know how to think and your ‘post #16’ is exhibit A.
