Some information on the “Progressive Republicans” movement:
Excerpt:
Open Letter to My Fellow Republicans…
We, the Undersigned, as long-time, loyal Republicans, supporters of the Party’s candidates and its core values of smaller, more efficient government, individual liberty and personal freedom condemn in the strongest possible fashion the circumstances and actions of so-called “conservatives” who have driven Senator Arlen Specter and many of our best and brightest from our Party. We also call on every member of the Party to take action to bring our Party back from the brink of irrelevancy.
We call for the RNC leadership to take this opportunity to begin an honest, frank, open and, most importantly inclusive “soul-searching” exercise, to determine what has been driving individuals out of the Party and to create a comprehensive strategy to reverse this trend.

Travis G. Johnson (Reston,VA - Founder, Progressive Republicans)

“Progressive Republicans” also support: amnesty, government funded birth control. Jack Kemp was interested in Progressive Republicans.
Never heard of these guys. Sounds like a Wednesday afternoon group of Beltway bozos. Or Loggies. Are they Loggies? Republican Unity Coalition refugees?
And you say Sarah Palin is one of them? Can you demonstrate that?

Rush Limbaugh defended Palin and heralded her as the “most prominent and articulate voice” for conservatism.
AS Michael Reagan said re convention night:
Wednesday night I watched the Republican National Convention on television and there, before my very eyes, I saw my Dad reborn; only this time he’s a she.
In one blockbuster of a speech, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin resurrected my Dad’s indomitable spirit
Yawn.
Please take me off your “I hate Sarah Palin because she is better looking than I am” ping list.
