I only tuned in to C-SPAN right before Sarah spoke.
Tonight at replay time I’ll catch the entire event and look for little gems like Rush’s tea!
Cheers!
was with his family along the rope line. He got a picture with Palin and was ecstatic!
I do hope she gets SS protection as soon as she announces.
It is pretty obvious to me that FOX has been doing everything it can to sabatoge her. Sure wish she would free herself from them! They are probably ticked that she won’t tell them ‘running’ or ‘not’ [among other agendas].
Well there’s much to be said for valuing your vote....men died so we are free to do so as you know.
That Fox Poll has many problems given that it was out-sourced to Perry’s pollster. You were pinged to Al B.’s posting of that informative article. Why the question about Palin and why is Fox continuing to play that? It’s a stop Sarah campaign that’s been ongoing for months. I hope she is no longer a Faux News Contributor, because I have been concerned that she might be encountering difficulties breaking her contract. We’re in a mew month now: September, and she hasn’t appeared on Faux. Fingers crossed that she’s finished with them.
You and me both and we have to wait until TUESDAY!!!!!
I loved the devotion of the guy standing soaked in the rain....loyalty has no boundaries!
Yes: #967
Saw that. Do you know him?
Have you seen The Undefeated yet? She truly reformed and restored her city and state when she was in office there.
That is a fact, and the primary one driving this whole election cycle.
Better than Corporate taxes. Unfortuanately, Not all States agree:
Alaska's Corporate Income Tax System
Alaska's corporate tax structure consists of ten separate brackets with a top rate of 9.4% kicking in at an income level of $90,000the 5th highest rate in the nation. In FY2009, Alaska's state-level corporate tax collections (excluding local taxes) reached $912 per capita, which ranked highest in the nation.

I’ve been watching the NatGeo 9-11 specials all week.
One that I caught last night was really heart-breaking.
It was a “Where Were You” on 9-11 theme.
One feature was a blind man who worked in the towers and he had a seeing eye dog. Although the office he was in was told to stay put after the plane hit, his dog “Salty” told him to get out. They found their way down many flights of stairs. Another stand out was a woman who worked at the Pentagon, who was rescued by a man who re-entered the building to find survivors. They are like family now. The whole program was so moving.
EXACTLY SO!
But she’s running, there’s no reason for even sit-at-homers to sit at home!
Palin,Palin,Palin! :)
Far better even than the speech, was the autographs afterward - 45 minutes of Palin signing autographs.
2:30 onward in the following video:

That’s hour 2, minute 30. Watch it full screen, this is quality television.
Obama is toast. So may be Perry, frankly. Never saw such natural political skill before
Again hour 2 minute 30:
(45 minutes of autograph signing)

She is the most articulate speaker we have had in decades.
She talks good!
