Governor Palin wrote the following in response to the latest scandal coming from the Obama administrations State Deptartment.
Via Facebook:
She also posted this image, writing:Outrageous. Once again the cover-up is worse than the crime. Secretary of State John Kerry WAS on his boat while Egypt fell into turmoil resulting in an overthrow of its new government ruled by the Muslim Brotherhood that the Obama Administration had so recently supported and may still support. (That, however, we do not know because President Obamas absolutely dithering foreign policies, his "leading from behind," and his benign statements on the Muslim Brotherhood make no sense to sensible people.)
The State Department categorically denied Kerry was on his boat. Yet CBS had pictures to prove it. Goodness. There is no need to lie, even on such a "little" thing as the location of a government leader during a military confrontation happening in real time. (Benghazi? Ring a bell? There still isnt anyone in the media wholl find out where our Commander-in-Chief was that night.) Come on, Obama Administration! Its no big darn deal that Kerry was on his boat! We expect, and deserve, to assume that our highest ranking public servants to whom We the People have given the most responsibility are always working even when theyre clearing their heads and breathing in some fresh air on a yacht, or sweating away stress on a basketball court, or yukking it up with pals on the fairway lets trust theyre always preparing for the proverbial 3:00 AM phone call.
Being on his boat isnt the issue. Blatantly deceiving the American people is the issue.
Our government, yet again, either had no idea where the boss was, or worse yet, they lied to us. (Oops-a-daisy. Correction. In Obamaspeak, we were told the "least untruthful statement.") Our government directed its swift-ly boat changing denials to what one can only surmise is their perception of who we are: a nation of sheep heads down, grazing away, gullible, ignorant, and undeserving of truth.
Confronted with photographic evidence, the State Department merely tossed the public a handful of hay today in its tepid effort to kinda-sorta explain the whole thing away. Something about, well, yeah, so the evidence contradicted all their public claims, but eh, no harm, no foul. And like good herder dogs, with calm authority to avoid commotion, the bureaucrats barked the suggestion that we all just move along now.
No. You move along, little doggie. Enough is enough. Its unacceptable. Remember, the nations Mama Grizzlies dont just rise up to swat away threats to protect the next generation. They also school, scold, and signal to teach a lesson. One lesson taught all children is if you lie on the little things, youll lie on the big things.
George Orwell wrote of a time when citizens could no longer trust big government, and by wearing down the citizenry through doublespeak and lies a tired country finally retreated to its dark and depressing demise.
America, we shall not go there! Why? Because if we know from our nations forefathers that weariness is not in our blood! Its not in our DNA to retreat. Have faith that there are enough patriots in our exceptional nation willing to fight together for what is right. Proof of this is all the families still encouraging and supporting their loved ones who choose U.S. military service. And proof of a unified commitment to defend our republic is what the independent tea party movement is all about. Disregard the constant criticism, mocking, and flagrant lies about this diverse, proud movement that still spew from big government cheerleaders and their lapdogs in the media. Despite harassment and intimidation, commonsense conservatives are rising up again to get a better view of what is ahead. They are identifying threats to our Constitution and our childrens future. The permanent political class angrily bemoans this because they know our diverse working class those who make the world go round can shake off the slumber, unify, and effectively encourage others to come out of a 2012 hibernation and demand accountability at the 2014 ballot box. Its there we prove the average, everyday Americans ferocious strength when exercising that beautiful belief in loyalty only to a government of the people, by the people, for the people. Until then, we mustnt have the fighting instinct of sheep. Pay attention, do your own homework on candidates and political machines, turn off media that would disrespect you by continuing to deceive, and keep the faith.
While celebrating Americas glorious Independence this week, be secure in knowing that there are more of us who support men and women ready and willing to fight on our behalf for freedom and truth than those who would continually deceive us. Thank God. And thank a Vet.
State Department: say youre sorry and dont ever do this again. CBS News: thank you for doing your job on this issue.
Happy 4th of July weekend, America.
- Sarah Palin
Pretty clear. Kerry on his boat. But changing winds soon hit.And this:
Despite different attributions of this quotes author, the sentiment rings true.
Sorry about that mistake but thanks for understanding!

Sarah Palin ended her political career the day she quit the governership. This is a great Facebook post (and written perfectly, BTW) but it is only a FB post.
She took more crap than anyone I’ve ever seen and had every right to exercise her choice and quit. If she had not, she would have been a national force again. But she did quit.
Rice is pro-abortion. She voted for Obama (because she is black before she is an American). Not a good idea to team up Sarah with another RINO loser. If you’re looking for a smart, capable, black female there are plenty of them out there without scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Yep!
Mia Love perhaps?
“Sarah is the only Conservative today that can pull it off.”
She is the only one I trust to do what she promises. If she refuses to run, I will not be voting. I will be too busy with Hoppes #9.
I trust Ted Cruz.
Especially after hearing his father speak at the Freedomworks event last night.
Ted’s father was imprisoned by Castro and has a FASCINATING story.
That family knows EXACTLY what’s going on.
I love her plain, NY Post-style speech. It seems easy, but it really isn’t. Lucid speech reflects a clear mind.
You can multi task! ;-)
I trust Ted also.

Hell of a rant, brother.
You’re not alone. MILLIONS of us “blue collar zealots” out here.
Several Divisions’ worth, you might say...
“.....can shake off the slumber, unify, and effectively encourage others to come out of a 2012 hibernation and demand accountability at the 2014 ballot box.”
And elect and re-elect more republicans? Sorry, Sarah, but there aren’t enough smart voters to overcome the voter fraud and voter idiots. But I appreciate the effort.
I strongly disagree.
Palin if she runs this time, will motivate people unlike anyone else in either party.
Just you wait.
You known, I get sick and tired of so called conservatives using leftist tactics and talking points against Sarah. If one thinks that Sarah isn’t the best fit for office then that’s fine - to each is his own. But I get exasperated when the right attack Sarah the way the left do on superfluous notions. If a conservative cant figure out with all of the information out there on why Sarah was being bankrupt out of office and still cry about how she quit without explaining what they would do then I suspect that person to be either a RINO supporter or a troll
I'm not surprised Democrats lie it's who they are... I'm surprised CBS didn't fire the guy who took the pictures and suppress the truth. CBS is a known enabler for all democrats - no matter how corrupt.
I don’t have an answer, other than “The Playbook” says that is what is required to put forward the best possible story.
It is why I callem “LIEberals!”
Because they LIE!
BINGO! And I’m right with you.
So did Obama and countless others that have run for higher office. Have you never quit a job to take one with a higher paycheck or more power? If you did I guess we can call you a quitter!!! Loser!
