This visit is no accident.

I agree. My immediate sense, when I saw that a 2-star admiral rode a transport aircraft over to the office of a 3-star general to pick her up and escort her out to the ship, was that there was nothing routine about this visit.

In the pic below, the man on the left is Lt. Gen. Dana T Atkins, Alaskan Command Commander, 11th Air Force. The one on the right is Adm. Vance, CVN-74 Strike Group Commander.

There could be briefing going on WRT current opps, but Generals and Admirals like Sarah also. Probably went down something like this during a simple phone call: “BG Commander: “I’d like to meet the governor...she is a great lady.” Air Force General: “I can probably arrange that”.

The rest is history.....

I also agree this visit it no accident. In the past six months, we've had NK go even more batsh!t, and now we have Iran mowing down protesters and leaving them to die in the street.

It won't be long before the MSM catches up with the rest of America in realizing the world is a dangerous place. Just look at the type of questions Obama fielded yesterday. And whether some like it or not, the USA is shining beacon of hope and freedom to the rest of the world.

Yet, we have President Nero who is eating ice cream while the world around us is on fire.

Perception is everything.

And Sarah Palin, even in thanking the troops in the Letterman apology acceptance, is showing true leadership and giving credit to those who keep our country, and most of the world, safe. The more she appears like a CiC, the less it makes Obama seem presidential. The difference is, Sarah actually appreciates and loves the troops. It isn't staged. It is real.

And the timing is absolutely perfect.

Many here knock her, her staff, etc., but there is a level of subtle brilliance going on in what we're seeing with her. Its enough to make the MSM and liberals continue to target. They view her as the real threat. Sarah? She knows the world we live in, especially with the state she governs in the cross hairs of a North Korean madman.

Meanwhile, somewhere in DC, there's an ice cream cone waiting for President Nero.
