Well, Im sorry Im late. We had a bunch of kid activities today, and the kids come first, OK, so were taking care of that, but first let me ask you. Do you love your freedom? We do love our freedom so what we do is we think of vets, and we have some vets right here and we have vets all over this crowd. Raise your hand if youve served in the past or are presently serving in the United States military. We love you and we salute you! God bless you guys. Thank you guys so much! Youre why we are here, why we are free, why we have these protections in our Constitution that only you can secure so we thank our vets. Its just really really good to be home. Tonight I think Ill see some of you at a Glenn Beck event that we have in Anchorage. I know. What would we do without Fox News? I dont know.
Weve had a busy time getting to travel around the United States and share the message of really the reform in this country that we need. The reform its not a fundamental transformation of America that some would want to install upon us, but it is a restoration of America and the values that we hold so dear. Thats been our message. And I tell you where that springs from though is the roots here in Alaska. I tell my parents all the time there is no better gift that they could have given me than besides such an appreciation for family and for faith and patriotism, its been an upbringing in America in this most perfect state in America, Alaska, where we are independent and we have the pioneering spirit that more of America should hopefully get to look into the state and understand and really try to emulate because its that pioneering spirit that America needs more of.
Its a spirit that really wants to value work ethic and value family and value country and not ask much of government. We just want government on our side. We dont want it against us, we just want it on our side so its not a lot to ask. But that, that value, that belief, it comes from being an Alaskan. There is no place that I would rather be than with you on a day like this, patriots in Alaska. Patriots here who have taken time out of their day to say that we will never forget 9/11. Nine years ago, we will never forget and we all commit to never letting it happen again. So I thank you from the bottom of my heart for not just welcoming me in my home town but for being who you are, true patriots holding on to time tested truths. Knowing that, knowing some basic principles that again, the rest of America can, I think, can learn from so many Alaskans who believe this those time tested truths that are based on the government that governs least, governs best. And the knowledge that its our Constitution that provides the best path the best blueprint for a more perfect union and the knowledge that our men and women in uniform are a source for good throughout this world and thats nothing to apologize for. So you Alaskans who are so proud to be American, Im with you. I love you. God bless you and God bless the United States of America. Thank you guys
I was there. It was not really a surprise since it had been hinted at all week. Actually I thought the “surprise visitor” was going to be Beck. The acoustics were horrible so it was hard to hear Joe Miller or Sarah clearly. Good turnout for the valley
You were THERE! STRONGBOW! STRONGBOW! STRONGBOW!
Piper was with her mom. Did you see her too?
She was wearing glasses.
I posted a thread yesterday with a photos slide show.
I will bring the slide show to this thread.
Yes, and that’s the precise woman we are going to make sure WE get because we have to restore our REPUBLIC!
Hahahahaha ... I like that one.
I like it too, but I don’t like the photo of Sarah.
I am going to ask FrankR right here to photo shop a better pic of Sarah!
I just watched the video and I agree with you completely.
Okay. a base photo of AF-1. I will look. :)
That’s a beautiful picture of Sarah! :)
