The few other Govs. who also did not want the stimulus package ended up like Palin whith the Leg. pushing the issue.

Governor Palin expressed her concerns about accepting federal dollars that come with strings attached and would require the state to provide additional oversight. The state has requested federal clarification on those funds.

The governor went on to note, “I have to certify that these funds will create jobs and stimulate the economy, and that’s why I requested federal funds for job-ready projects. If the legislature wants to add funds to grow government, then I also want to hear how we will get out of the fiscal hole we’ll be in just two years from now when those temporary stimulus funds are gone.”

She not only GETS IT, she has a way of expressing it that allows all of us to understand, to be on the same page as it were or to understand, with clarity, why we disagree.

Sarah Palin IS clarity.

Gosh I love CLARITY!

Loved this quote from her that you captured in your post:
