PLEASE NOTE: I wasn't able to include everything I wished to today, plus my coding is a little messed up as my links are all in black! LOL
However, with Palin's "Coming Out Party" tonight at the Convention in just a few hours,
I wanted to get this posted sooner, rather than later... So please excuse the "mess".
Please keep pinging me to important articles you all run across.
I will put together a more comprehensive post tomorrow...
THANK YOU! - LibertyRocks

SUPER SURPRISE:
So, you've probably all heard me say there is a surprise in order for all of you "Palin Pingers". Well, in the interest of trying to create a resource that we can all use to help the McCain/Palin campaign I have thrown together a "Palin Pingers" Homepage! At the website you will find archives of these Newswire Issues, a Smear Fighting Resource, and more...
There are so many rumors and smears against Palin being spread by the media, that I feel like I'm swimming in it all. I'm finding it hard to pull together coherent information in order to fight back against these smears in various places online (like YouTube, Yahoo! Answers, and other such websites and forums). With the sheer depth of articles pertaining to Palin and all the various issues related to her here at FReeRepublic, it would be very easy to overlook good information and facts.
I figured I can't be the only one running into this problem, so right now I am working on putting together a "Smear Response" activist's resource where we can keep ourselves informed on the latest attacks, and the TRUTH behind them. I will let you all know when I have the basics in place, and you will all be invited to assist in compiling information on these issues. This will not be like Obama's site, but instead will be a place where activists can come together to discuss specific internet activism projects as well as get the latest information concerning the Left's lies about Mrs. Palin all in one place.
Without further ado, here is the "Homepage" for the "Palin Pingers": http://palinpingers.libertyrocks.us - Please bookmark this site, as I will be working on whipping the site into "shape" this evening, and over the next few days.
If you would like to take an active role in working on this anti-smear, pro-activism project for Palin, please FReepmail me! I am looking for individuals interested in helping to compile Myth/Fact FAQs, as well as looking for people interested in scouring blogs for interesting and/or important news in the blogosphere as I will be concentrating on things here at FR, putting together this list everyday, and just generally keeping an eye on things. I've got a lot of great ideas of ways we can help the McCain/Palin campaign online, but I'll need help to pull some of it off! LOL Besides, it never hurts to have more people brainstorming on ways we can support the campaign through the internet, and in our local areas.
OK, well that's all for now about the website. I'll put together a special "unveiling" of the smear resources hopefully in tomorrow's edition of this Newswire!
God bless you & yours,
LibertyRocks

Well, Sarah not only can do it, she bloody knocked the ball over the fence and out of the park! I was sitting here cheering, beaming and just so PROUD of her. Amazing experience, for all of us who care about the future of this country.
Like you, I just have such a hard time with speaking before a group. But our Sarah OBVIOUSLY loves it. And you and I dear FRiend, well, we witnessed, history last night.
Tough as she is though, we gotta assist in watching her back. They are going to be coming at her twice as bad as before, the filthy swine.
cheers, pattyjo
Absolutely on all counts!

Thanks GF...

Wow - what a very, very great resource you’ve put together -thank you much! If you are putting together a ping list please add me.
As an FYI the Albuquerque Victory Rally will not have Sarah Palin in attendance. My hubby picked up tickets only to be told at the Rep. Hdq. that it’s McCain and I believe Guiliani - I’d have to double check that one. But I didn’t want someone going there just to be disappointed.
THANK YOU AGAIN for this great resource!
LOL - I thought you were responding to today’s issue! Just FYI - Issue 2 is now available here:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-gop/2075042/posts
I just double-checked and the McCain site still says she’ll be there. I wonder if someone misunderstood.
Thanks for the link to Issue 2 - greyfoxx just found this and pinged the NM folks today. That’s why I found it :-)
Here’s what was on my email invitation:
Join John McCain and Cindy McCain for a Road to Victory Rally!
Please join John McCain and Cindy McCain at a Road to Victory Rally on September, 6th in Albuquerque, NM. As the Senator and Mrs. McCain continue the momentum traveling across the country after next week’s National Convention, they would be delighted to have you join them at this rally.
Please come and show your support for John McCain. Please pick up a free ticket to join us. You can reserve a ticket to pick up at one of our ticket distribution centers by following this link or email us at newmexico@johnmccain.com.
Looks great!
Thank you. :-)
