Sarah Palin to Re-Launch Bus Tour in Iowa Tomorrow
abcnews.com ^ | August 10, 2011

Posted on 08/10/2011 5:30:17 PM PDT by Al B.

ABC News has confirmed that Sarah Palin will re-launch her “One Nation” bus tour in Iowa tomorrow, the same day that Republican presidential contenders will take the stage for a debate in Ames, Iowa.

[...]

A SarahPAC fundraising email obtained by ABC News details the former Alaska governor’s plans to “meet folks at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines this week.”

“The heartland is perfect territory for more of the One Nation Tour as we put forth efforts to revitalize the fundamental restoration of America by highlighting our nation's heart, history, and founding principles,” Palin writes in the email. “State fairs hold a special place in our nation's history and heritage, so my family is honored to highlight one of them on one stop along the One Nation Tour route - America's historic Iowa State Fair! (I'm also excited to try some of that famous fried butter-on-a-stick, fried cheesecake-on-a-stick, fried twinkies, etc. I'll enjoy them in honor of those who'd rather make us just ‘eat our peas!’)”

A source with knowledge of the trip told ABC News that plans for an Iowa visit have been in place since at least Tuesday. As of this morning, only about four people besides Palin knew about the trip. The source also said that a handful of Iowa GOP members and elected officials were notified about the trip minutes before the SarahPAC email went out.

[...]

This isn’t Palin’s only planned visit to the crucial election state. Late last month, she announced she’d give a keynote address at an Iowa tea party rally over Labor Day weekend.

Campaign commie Carl on Fox was speaking live from Iowa when mitt romney straddled his rat arse right up to Carl and the camera... eating food... actively chewing and speaking at the same time. He looked like he had tipped a few to boot... and he seized the broadcast and spoke in platitudes only a CONsummate lying scumbag politician uses. I NEED SARAH TO RUN... AMERICA NEEDS SARAH... most of these other people ARE THE ONES THAT CAUSED OR HELPED THIS CRAP TO HAPPEN TO OUR GREAT REPUBLIC! mitt was the poster boy in Iowa for what is WRONG... not for how to SOLVE these problems!

I would love to see her bus tour coincide with Barry’s bus tour in the sense wherever he’s stopping, she’s been there the day before.

She leads...he follows.

So what do you think, Al...is Perry in cohoots with Sarah or is he doing his own thing? I’m not so sure anymore.

VR, as you know I’ve gone back & forth on this myself but I currently think she is not in cahoots with Perry at all.

I believe this last-minute decision to go to Iowa is because he’s ready to announce. I think she wants to make it clear to him that if he thinks he has “the lay of the land” with respect to all the talk about her not running and endorsing him, he’s sadly mistaken.

Secondarily, she will love to rain on Zero’s own bus tour over the same general terrain. It’s a two-fer. LOL.

Anyway, JMO.

I will NEVER vote for that scumbag.

BOR and the rest of the talking heads have no idea about our vile disgust and total rejection of him.

This obviously has nothing to do with Barry going to Iowa five days later, with Perry visiting three days later, or even with Mitt’s trip there today. I know because the mainstream media, the Obama Regime, the RINO Romney Campaign, and the rest of the liberal establishment have assured me that Sarah Palin is not running. They wouldn’t all lie to us (again), would they?

Sarah for America!

She waited until Obama’s numbers hit the low 40’s, high 30’s, then she’s going to shred him apart and put him on the defensive and make him stutter and stammer and make a million excuses and blame everyone for the state of the economy, except himself.

She’s going to eviscerate him like a Moose on his record.

The bumper sticker slogans won’t get it done this time.

The debates will be viewed by a record number of voters, and Palin will shred Obama, live on National TV thrice.

It will be awesome to see the look on his face as she rips him a new one.
