Governor Palin has what it takes! Common Sense, a Work Ethic and a Belief in How Great America Is and How Great it can Be!!
Governor Sarah Palin Love Her or Hate Her highlights the chasm between the innate decency of ordinary Americans and the elitist, moral relativism of judgmental liberals.
If not for the corruption of society by the open minded tolerance of liberal atheistic elitism, and its forcing its way into every aspect of our culture, Sarah Palin–and ALL other women like her–would be almost universally admired. Put politics aside for a moment and look at the person. What's not to like about a tough, intelligent, God-fearing mother of five who's elevated herself from the obscurity of a small town life to national prominence, who is married to a decent hard-working guy who supports her aspirations?
Nothing at all unless you are a narrow minded progressive, and you want to impose the elitist, liberal template on her.
The Liberal Media Attacks Palin
A roomful of academics erupted in anger recently after political analyst Michael Barone said liberal journalists trashed Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the Republicans' vice presidential nominee, because "she did not abort her Down syndrome baby."
Barone said in an e-mail that he "was attempting to be humorous and...went over the line."
"The liberal media attacked Sarah Palin because she did not abort her Down syndrome baby," Barone said, according to accounts by attendees. "They wanted her to kill that child....I'm talking about my media colleagues with whom I've worked for 35 years."
If American Liberal Elitists know the "truth," and have cornered the market on diversity, acceptance, and tolerance, why should they be scared of Sarah Palin? Why is she being attacked from every direction? The answer is simple--she is a clear and present danger to the liberals, and proves that a real conservative women can lead.
Governor Palin Is Fighting Back
Governor Palin, in an interview with CNN, dismissed the critics and GOP leakers.
She said: "I consider it cowardly. It's not true. That's cruel, it's mean-spirited, it's immature, it's unprofessional and those guys are jerks if they came away taking things out of context and then tried to spread something on national news that's not fair and not right."
After she returned to her native Alaska, Governor Palin targeted liberal sexism on the national stage. "Here in Alaska that double standard isn't applied because these guys know that Alaskan women are pretty tough, on a par with the men in terms of being outdoors, working hard," she said.
"They're commercial fishermen, they're pilots, and they're working up on the North Slope in the oil fields. You see equality in Alaska. I think that was a bit of a surprise on the national level."
Obama Campaign Attacks Palin
Pro-abortion Vice-President Elect Joe Biden, attacking Sarah Palin on abortion in an interview, said it would be a "backwards step for women" if Palin had become the first female Vice President.
This was his response in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to a local television reporter, who asked Biden, "Do you think, if she does win, that would be a step forward for women."
A former U. S. Seantor from Delaware, Biden, disagreed and pointed to Palin's pro-life views on abortion as the reason why.
The Liberal Open Minded Women Attack Palin
The comment section, of our blog post, was flooded with angry Obamians who continue to attack Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin. Here is one quote:
"Palin is nothing but a disgrace to women everywhere. Palin will set women's rights back 40 years." - Margie from Missouri (RMCPAC Blog post)
The McCain Aides Attack Palin
Irate John McCain aides, who blame Governor Palin for losing the election, claim she took it upon herself to question Mr Obama's patriotism, before the line of attack had been cleared by Senator McCain.
That claim is part of a campaign of targeted leaks from the McCain Campaign designed to torpedo her ambitions, with claims that she did not know that Africa was a continent rather than a country. (Taken out of context)
Attacks and Retracts
"You are witnessing something quite unique: a man who is about to talk to you while he has his foot in his mouth," Eagleburger said when asked if his NPR quotes had been taken out of context.
"I made a serious mistake yesterday. I was quoted correctly," Eagleburger said. "I wasn't thinking when i said it -- in fact, I was discussing foreign policy, and this was in that context, and I was just plain stupid, and if I had given the flim-flam artist Barack Obama some success with this I am deeply apologetic."
Palin: a Liberals Worst Nightmare
The liberal blogs have much to say about Gov. Palin such as "She symbolizes all of the worst ideological aspects of the Republican party."
"Palin is cut from the cloth of social conservatism and religious moralism. She represents the worst sort of patriotism, the idea that it is America against the world and that there is a "real America."
"Palin manages to combine all of the worst aspects of the Republican party, from their tactics to their ideals. The GOP is staggering after this past election, and if Palin manages to wrangle the nomination in 2012, even darker times are ahead for the right."
Palin a Qualified, Accomplished, Experienced Leader
Governor Sarah Palin is to be admired as an accomplished leader, legislator, administrator, and reformer. She is an intelligent woman that is an example for everyone to respect as a role model.
Governor Sarah Palin made history on Dec. 4, 2006, when she took office. As the 11th governor of Alaska, as the first woman to hold that office, she has been a leader:
Alaska invested $5 billion in state savings, overhauled education funding, and implemented the Senior Benefits Program that provides support for low-income older Alaskans.
Created Alaska's Petroleum Systems Integrity Office
Overhauled the state's ethics laws
Developed a competitive process to construct a gas pipeline.
Chaired the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission. Chaired the National Governor's Association (NGA) Natural Resources Committee,
Served two terms on the City Council and two terms as the mayor/manager of Wasilla, Alaska.
Chaired the Alaska Conservation Commission.
Presided over the Alaska Conference of Mayors.

The most inane dunce in the Senate talks about a backward step if Sarah had been elected. The bozo, socialist team of Obomba-Biden will be the death of Constitutional America.
We have an inelgible Pres and a Stupid rerun for Veep. One of the 5 Senators which voted against the Alaska Pipeline. They will tax your Gasoline back to $4 as the american populace does not deserve cheap energy.
barbra ann
Sure they do. Sarah is the ONE we have been waiting for, and the liberals know it.
The Obmamcrats and the MSM are scared to death of Sarah Palin, as well they should be.
Here is something I am finding rather interesting. In the last couple days two MSM polls have come out-one was who were the most admired man and woman and the other was the “who would you most like to live next door” to one.
We all know the results of those but it was really interesting the way the MSM reported them. For the most admired man/woman one most of the MSM newscasts I saw only mentioned the Obamamessiah and Hillary-they made no mention of the fact that Sarah Palin kicked Obama’s chief groupie Oprah’s fat ass.
For the “who would you most like to live next door to” most of the MSM newscasts only mentioned the results of who people did not want to live next door to (Brittany Spears, Lindsay Lohan and the Beckhams). They made no mention that the winner of the poll was Sarah Palin followed by Obama’s groupie Oprah. None of the MSM newscasts mentioned that the Obama’s did not even make it into top three, which I am sure they would have if it were President Bush..
My only problem with her is that she sounds like a friggin’ idiot when taking questions.......an amateur.

What has Sarah Palin done to anyone to make someone, , especially a woman, feel this way and say something like this?Lot’s of women feel this way and I do not understand why. Governor Palin is a hard working,self made, accomplished mother and politician,dedicated to her family and the people who elected her.Everything she has accomplished she did on her own. No family name to cash in, no famous relatives, no illegal payoffs, no affirmative action,she did everything with her own determination and hard work. How could this be disgraceful? She is someone I believe is a wonderful role model for every teenaged girl and young woman to aspire to be like.I just don’t get it.
I don’t think she sounds like an idiot at all. She just doesn’t sound like a career politician, who frankly I feel are the ones who sound like idiots.Uh uh uh Obama and our latest friggin idiot, Caroline, you know, you know, you know.How about dopey Joe Biden, the friggin idiot who asked a crippled man in a wheel chair to stand up so everyone can see him. That is a friggin idiot.
“My only problem with her is that she sounds like a friggin’ idiot when taking questions.......an amateur.”
She is an amateur, that’s what makes her special. She is one of us, not one of the backroom, backscratching old boys. To be anything other than an amateur, she would have to be tainted by experience.
Going down to the lower 48 where Free Market Capitalism is being destroyed and everyone or anyone with an r behind their name are routinely demagaogued by the left has to be a shell shocking event for her.It may take a while to get used to.
” “Palin is nothing but a disgrace to women everywhere. Palin will set women’s rights back 40 years.”

Sarah Palin is a REALLY authentic woman, who has cooperated with her Creator to make them most of her potential WITHOUT SACRIFICING HER WOMANHOOD. She is, therefore, an authentic feminist. She has already accomplished what liberal “feminists” can only wish for, but will never achieve precisely because they have turned their backs on their Creator and their own womanhood.
She will be our next Reagan. Only much more wise to the ways of the media and with 4 more years of executive experience under her skirt.
The Liberal Media fears her like Demons fear God.
Palin is at the top of my GOP list of people I want to represent me.
Thanks for the explanation. Being a man, I guess I am blind to a lot of things that make women think the way this type of woman thinks. Personally, I think Governor Palin is terrific.
I have found the idiots to be the tanked media types.
And you, Strawberry, had better watch your mouth when you attempt to besmirch someone who most of us here find admirable.
As a woman, I think I have always noticed that the women who are known as the *radical* feminists (who support abortion, etc.) are not very happy at all. They also seem perpetually angry and in need of psychological counseling (and real conversion). Even those who have learned to mask their anger seem cold and emotionally dysfunctional to me.
Those who have the most hate for authentic women (i.e. Sarah Palin) are in need of committed intercessory prayer by sincere Christians. Only God can heal them and change their hearts.
Look even Tiger Woods has had a few bad rounds of golf occasionally. Should he be defined by them or by his 14 major wins and his 65 victories overall? Should Sarah Palin be defined by 2 interviews in September or by the countless number of interviews and speeches she has given in the past 3 months and before she was nominated by McCain as his running mate? Sarah is not perfect but she is NOT the moron or idiot that the MSM make her out to be. If you think that then you must think that all the people of Alaska who voted for her are morons and idiots as well. With only 3 electoral votes the nutroots and the MSM have no misgivings of writing Alaska off by claiming this is so.
It is also interesting that Governor Palin won election and enjoys high approval ratings in a State with a relatively high proportion of independent voters (43%). This is a secret and a story that must be told throughout the Internet and Blogsphere. It bodes well for her in winning over a majority of Independents in the lower 48, should she decide for 2012.
