This follows reports that she will cut the state budget 7% (including a 57% cut in capital spending).
We can not praise this woman enough.

“”Her view is, it’s just not appropriate to accept a pay raise in the middle of the term,” he told the newspaper.”
In other words, she beleives in pay for performance, thinks she has more work to do and has just begun to earn her pay.

What kind of sinister game is she playing?

God bless, Governor Palin. This is yet another example of why we voted for her and have the utmost respect for her.

“Palin REFUSES $25,000 pay hike”
#####
This should be INTERNATIONAL headline news.
Meanwhile, various and sundry silverspooners like Kennedy and Pelosi gobble up every Congressional pay raise like clockwork.
Compare and contrast....

Who needs that $25,000 with the book deal she’s going to get? :)

"Her view is, it's just not appropriate to accept a pay raise in the middle of the term," he told the newspaper. Contrast that with the response from other pols, GOP and Dem alike, who say "What could I do? THEY voted the raise for me, I didn't ask for it" and keep the increase.

If the commission pushes ahead with her raise anyway, she could always donate it to charity- perhaps toward the church that was maliciously set afire last week.

She just showed her political savvy too. Just imagine what the Rats and RINOs would have said about her accepting the pay raise as she’s cutting the budget. She’s the only reason McCain didn’t come in third.
No wonder the loony left and the RINOs are deathly afraid of her.

Other politicians TALK about budgetary restraint. Sarah makes it HAPPEN.
Other politicians TALK about ethical practices. Sarah OPERATES by them.
Other politicians TALK about family values. Sarah LIVES them.
And... Sarah is “unqualified” to serve as President??????

Good for her! I can’t say enough good things about her. First of all this shows integrity. She’s calling for a 7% cut in the state budget so she should refuse the raise...and it also shows she’s a good politician for refusing the raise. SOOOOO many of our current GOP officials are absolutely tone deaf to this kind of thing. Thank goodness Sarah is the real deal.
