On July 3rd, Sarah Palin, once again, turned the Main Stream Media pundits, the liberal policiticians, and the political establishment in Washington DC on their ear. Talk again is abuzz, "What will Sarah do?" I listened to her entire announcement. It was honorable, it was direct, and it punctuated the insane politics of our day...it also punctuated her personal commitment to fight for conservative principles and candidates...to fight for America, and to do so when it would not distract further from her job as Governor and the foundation she has built there.
I am proud of her and support her. She is a great American.
I think Sarah has just turned, like a fed-up mama Bear, on her detractors and on the sad state of affairs afflicting our nation. She has put things in order, she has left them in the hands of capable people, and she has now turned to face the enemy directly. The enemy of big, inflated government, the enemey of abject socialism and marxism runnink amuck in our nation, the enemy of out of control spending, the enemy of energy dependence, the enemy of moral decay, and the enemy of the culture of death in our society.
I think all of the enemies, and the people who support them and perpetuate them are going to be sorry. We have smelled the fear in them for a long time as they have attacked this good woman, her family, and her children. Good on her!
I believe she will assist conservative candidates greatly in 2010, with huge crowds and building imense political capitol as she goes. I believe she will build personal capital as she speaks out in support of fundamental American and moral principle all around this nation, and I believe she will take all of that capital and will run herself in 2012 for President...and she has my full support.
GO SARAH GO!
Sarah going to Honduras is the best idea I have heard in weeks!! You are absolutely brilliant. If she were to do it, that would be the start of her movement. American conservatives would go crazy.
This is the real story -- the campaign finance issues and the sheer corruption that has made it impossible for anyone with middle-class background to run for top office in this country. The failure to prosecute wrongdoing in the past election is staggering. Our only hope is to start cleaning house at every opportunity. Two words: TERM LIMITS. Also, any fresh faces who come to Washington to head up commissions or departments of the massive government should make it a policy to fire all incumbents.
Deb, some interesting comments here from a Honduran poster:

Thanks. I wish Sarah would take up their fight. That would be a winner for everyone.
I noticed that. Yeah, Sarah.
They will...but it will work against them. Sarah is counter attacking on their flank, and as that spearhead comes home, tere rantings about “but, but, she quit”, will not only be ineffectual, they will be alme.
Amen...my prayers are with yours.
Have used that poster already in emails to several left-wingers that I minimally tolerate (at least until the next invocation/enforcement of the Declaration of Independence) only because they are extended family (in-laws side).
Amen AuntB, amen. Her use of that MacArthur quote teels me she is in...with both feet.
SolidWood....just email him....
People...maybe.
Governments....never!
She has come out of a position that constrained her to fight a defensive battle.
She now goes on offense....the way this internal war-for-survival has NOT been fought by any GOP leader since 93-94.
Yep...Was thinking the same thing when I read that post...
President Bush's popularity was eventually destroyed because ONLY because he refused to get into the trenches and to either defend himself or go on offense on conservative issues. It was not his folksy speech patterns that did him in.
For the last six years of his presidency, President Bush provided zero leadership on any conservative issues...excluding the now-dismantled war on terror.
That poster wants her to give up her strongest weapon. Maybe because he doesn’t understand WHY she’s popular, but maybe he’s a RINO.
That weapon is GENUINENESS - the ability to speak straight from core values. No lefty can do it, no person can fake it well.
Only if she has a contract with Xe and Erik Prince!
Thanks Jeff, have a fantastic Fourth of July. Someone needs to be the leader of the smaller government wing of the GOP and Sarah is up to the task...
