Sarah Palin: At Your Service

Will Sarah Palin run for the presidency in 2012? It’s the question of the day.

Yes, no, maybe so, and the ever so infamous: “She won’t because she wouldn’t want to give up what she has now.” Every political strategist and just about every stranger on the street has an opinion.

Let’s take a look at that last analysis. What does she have now? Essentially: flexibility and a megaphone.

She doesn’t have to attend the speaking engagements or TV appearances of which she’s invited. She can write a Facebook note or Twitter a comment and for a concise moment the political world comes to a screeching halt to hear what she has to say.

There’s only one small problem with these circumstances…Everyday of Sarah Palin’s life she’s strived to achieve more than the previous day. She is wholeheartedly determined to better the world around her. With that being said, I’d say she’s just about finished with being plain ole’ Fox News contributor, Sarah Palin.

There is one more comment I would like to address: “There’s no way she’s running, a Governor would never step down if they considered running for the presidency in the future.” Here’s my response… Sarah doesn’t plan by primarily considering her own political future or clout.

The elites would laugh at that statement. But why? What’s so amusing about a politician that doesn’t plan for their own political good? It may seem unethical to some, perhaps unparalleled to others but it’s the Palin way of doing things.

The Palin way of doing things knows no “I” or “me”. Just take a look at her selfless political past. She puts the interest of the people she’s serving first and foremost.

If I had a penny for every time Sarah Palin was pronounced politically dead, my piggy bank would be filled to the brim. Her ethics may seem hasty to political strategists, to her colleagues, possibly even to her advisers.

Sarah Palin is America. She is your hardworking neighbor who leaves his house at 6am and returns at 8pm. She is your patriotic son or daughter who yearns for a successful future. She is your mother who loves inconceivably, who hopes for her children and grandchildren. Sarah Palin lives, loves and breathes America and everything we are.

I realize not one single person [on earth] has all the answers but if you long for a leader with God-given gut instinct, concrete personal inner strength, modest humility, and pure love for country; she’s your gal.

Palin Talks Tough on D.C. Changes Needed Now

Gov. Palin on Fox News:
Justice with Judge Jeanine

Last night on Justice with Judge Jeanine, Governor Palin talked tough on D.C. changes needed now, gas prices and foreign policy.

When asked if the Wisconsin lawmakers should they be fired for “running and hiding” from a vote on an anti-union bill, Palin said, “Yeah they absolutely should be fired, they should be recalled. They’ve retreated; they’re not doing their job. Wisconsin Governor [Scott Walker] is doing all that he can to allow his state to be solvent and he certainly isn’t getting any help from the democrats.”

Judge Jeanine mentioned some in the Tea Party are willing to risk a government shutdown if their compromise with the federal budget isn’t met. Palin responded, “I’m not buying into all the rhetoric that we have to result in a government shutdown. We bring in 7 billion dollars a day, if we took that 7 billion dollars a day and fund the essentials, service our debt, those things coming first as our highest priority then this whole budget discussion doesn’t have to lead to a government shutdown.”

On Gas Prices:

“Drill here, drill now and the Obama anti-oil agenda has got to be stopped, he needs to realize that back in 08’ our US crude was also traded at about 100 dollars a barrel as it is today, for about 6 months and that was right before our world economy imploded and now here we are back again, his timing, his destructive timing of locking up 97% of our offshore and not allowing ANWR to be touched, not allowing domestic drilling to take place, to the degree that it should; it is terrifying where he is leading us in the terms of being reliant of foreign regimes that would seek our demise to produce energy for us.”

On Foreign Aid to Israel:

“When it comes to Israel, I stand strong with Israel and unapologetically I say that America should keep this strong democratic ally that we have there in the Middle East and allow for protection around Israel.”

Real Courage is Cutting During Prosperity

Gov. Sarah Palin on Fox Business

Last night former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin appeared on America's Nightly Scoreboard, with host David Asman.

At one point during the interview David informs Palin that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie had told Fox Business News that he didn't see any politician as inspiring. "Do you?" Asman asked Palin.

"Heck yeah, I am so thankful for all these common sense conservative politicians to serve and cut for the right reasons," she said.

Palin continued, “And with all due respect to Governor Christie, you know he has no choice but to cut budgets because he's broke, his state is broke. What courage really is, is in the face of having a surplus when you have opportunity to spend, spend, spend other people's money, and you still choose to rein in government to let the private sector soar."

Palin said as governor she trimmed Alaska's budget, during a time when her state had a surplus. She reduced earmarks by 86 percent, implemented a hiring freeze and vetoed the largest amounts of spending in Alaska state history.

During her time in office, Governor Palin attended a news conference where she discussed her budget cuts and suggested they should send a message to lawmakers for next year's budget considerations. “We need to live within our means,” Palin said. “Even though we have a surplus, that doesn't warrant a spending spree.”

From Drill Baby Drill to Soar Baby Soar

As we observe what is happening in the Middle East, we need to strongly consider what we can be doing here at home to further America’s energy independence; not only for our livelihood but for our nation’s security.

What has our current leader done to advance this mission?

President Obama has done everything possible to restrain domestic energy production. From implementing a drilling moratorium in deep water, a de facto drilling moratorium in shallow water to refusing to grant deep-water permits in the gulf. Government action on Gulf drilling permits ALONE would directly calm the oil markets and bring down prices, even though new production would not come for several years.

It’s not just the Gulf of Mexico that is off limits. Obama opposes drilling anywhere offshore, including in the rich arctic region which is known to hold billions of barrels of oil reserves. But instead of reducing prices, Obama seems to be hell bent on driving them up. Could it be our current leader is more interested in kowtowing to environmental donors in advance of the 2012 election?

What do I have to say to all this pish posh? “DRILL BABY, DRILL.”

Sarah Palin is a strong advocate for an energy policy. She wants to produce more domestic energy and buy less overseas. She realizes the importance for America to rely less on foreign regimes for one of our most used resources. As the former governor of one of America’s largest energy-producing states, a state oil and gas commissioner and chair of the nation’s Interstate Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, I’d say she knows a thing or two about the matter.

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves." --Abraham Lincoln 

One Does Not Raise a Mallet to Crush an Ant

The "Lamestream" Media, the spiteful Left, and the faithful Obama Kool-Aid drinkers have relentlessly attempted to besmirch the name:  Sarah Palin. 

At first, it was an attempt to discredit the opposition. But why must the beat go on? They couldn't possibly continue to see her as a threat, could they? After all, according to these "experts" she's just a brainless, unaccomplished nobody.

Below are a few excerpts from an article written by David Solway at Pajamas Media:

"Let me begin with a paradox. The more Sarah Palin seems unelectable, the more electable she may actually be. The media blitzkrieg launched against Palin may be interpreted not as a sign of her unfitness for office but precisely as a measure of her eligibility. Palin’s electability can be reckoned as an inverse function of the virulent campaign intent on her delegitimation. The greater the fury she is met with, the greater the likelihood that she poses a genuine threat. One does not raise a mallet to crush an ant.

We are told that Palin’s “national negatives” are too high for her to be regarded as a viable candidate. But this is to forget that such “negatives” are mainly the result of a coordinated media assault whose effect can be mitigated with time, intelligent pushback and increased exposure on the ground. Presence can counter image and word of mouth can triumph over print. Negatives can be neutralized and even turned into positives. Harry Truman’s whistle-stop tour through the American heartland enabled him to upstage a heavily-favored Tom Dewey in 1948. The cries of “Give ‘em Hell, Harry,” which became his campaign theme, can translate in the present context as “Give ‘em Hell, Sarah,” if she takes her show on the road.

We are also told that Palin has polarized the nation, which is the fiction the media wants us to accept. The truth is that America has been unraveling since the ’60s and that Obama, not Palin, has even further divided the nation, so much so that America has come to resemble not a single, unified country but two or more countries in a state of internecine conflict. It is Obama, the putative redeemer of his nation and the great healer, who, through both his agenda and his failings, has brought his nation to the very brink.

The enemy goes by the name of the Democratic Party of America, cosmetically liberal or “progressivist” in its self-definition but inherently socialist in its subtabular project. It is redistributionist in its economics, transnational in its foreign policy and Islamic in its sympathies. It shares a profound solidarity with an anachronistic trade unionist movement, works diligently against the entrepreneurial sector, pursues an extensive entitlement program at the expense of the country’s future solvency, accumulates unpayable debt, prints imaginary money and is corrosively skeptical of its own armed forces, gradually ceding the geopolitical field to America’s fervid antagonists. It is persistently re-interpreting the bedrock Constitution to weaken its binding force and is guilty of rampant electoral corruption. It sees the nation as a private fiefdom that it intends to control in perpetuity.

The good news is that it may not be too late. With the plausible assumption that Obama will ultimately reveal himself as the “throwback kid,” recycling a hoary and bankrupt Marxist archetype regardless of his histrionic attempts at a faux centrism; with the media behaving as Obama’s dutiful caddies and discrediting themselves by the day; with the Tea Party acting as America’s reinvigorated conscience; and if Palin maintains her visibility as simply who she is, America may — just may — experience the shock of memory, recall its former glories, embark upon its painstaking restoration and, at the same time, find itself with its first female president. A long shot? Maybe, maybe not."

If she truly has no chance of defeating Obama in 2012, why not dedicate all their time and resources to defame Republican candidates who can?

Oh What Tangled Web's We Weave

Some people will believe anything that is said about Sarah Palin.

Us Weekly reported that Governor Palin had some harsh things to say about Christina Aguilera who fumbled (pun intended) the singing of the National Anthem at the Super Bowl last weekend.

Us reported that Palin said Aguilera was "—a demanding beauty queen who's clearly in over her head.. Unemployment is at nine percent, yet we have to suffer through a performance by a foreigner with a poor grasp of the English language. If I were president, I'd deport Ms. Aguilera back to wherever it is she's from and give Amy Smart a call."

The problem is Sarah Palin never made such a comment. Us Weekly was quoting a fake story in a satirical website called “Super Tuesday News”.

Turns out Us Weekly wasn’t the only media outlet to fall for the false statement. Time Magazine fell for the same cock-and-bull story!

There is a happy ending to this madness; (not only will Sarah Palin run and win in 2012), but in defense, Palin sent an e-mail to Time Magazine congressional correspondent, Jay Newton:

“Subject: Great job, MSM!

Jay – pls tell your bosses there at Time Magazine thank you for the invitations to attend the upcoming functions. I’ll sure put a lot of thought into those invitations.

Then, have your editors retract Time’s most recent ridiculous lies about me supposedly giving Sean Hannity a radio interview wherein I supposedly talked about Christina Aguilera (that I slammed her for her Nat’l Anthem mistake, and called for her deportation, etc). You guys were fooled into running a fake story that even US Weekly pulled and apologized for their blunder. Total lies – and you guys (once again) even put quotation marks around things I have never uttered. Then, Time needs to run an apology to Christina along with the retraction. (Add Hannity in your apology, too…those good folks don’t deserve to be in a caustic, untrue story about me.) Thanks much – keep up the great work, Time Magazine.”

New Addition to the Palin Army

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines...

CNN is reporting that Governor Sarah Palin has hired an expert Republican strategist to serve as chief-of-staff for her political action committee (SarahPAC).

Michael Glassner, an attorney and longtime adviser to former Kansas senator and presidential candidate Bob Dole, has signed on to guide the former Alaska governor's political operation.

The hire, confirmed to The Associated Press on Saturday morning by Palin aide Rebecca Mansour and SarahPAC Treasurer Tim Crawford, is certain to fuel fresh speculation about Palin's possible intent to run for president in 2012.

"We are happy and excited that Mike is joining our team," Sarah PAC Treasurer Tim Crawford told CNN.

Will the Real Sarah Palin Please Stand Up?

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! Wait, is that the real Sarah Palin?

Governor Sarah Palin was not expected to attend this years CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) but for a moment some attendees thought there may have been a change of plans.

While former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney was making last minute adjustments to his “do” before taking stage, a woman resembling Sarah Palin strolled through the lobby immediately sparking attention from attendees.

“I’m here for CPAC,” said Patti Lyons, “Plus I heard they had some good mooseburgers.” Patti has done the Palin impersonation before. Her website even calls her “the world’s premier Governor Palin impressionist”, you can book Patti by calling 865-546-0000.

It seems even when Sarah is absent she has the ability to draw a crowd.

On This Day 47 Years Ago

On this day 47 years ago, a passionate spirit for the American dream was bestowed upon a baby girl in the cold sleepy town of Sandpoint, Idaho. 

Sarah Louise (Heath) Palin

Meaning of the name Sarah:  lady, princess.

Meaning of the name Louise:  warrior.

Meaning of the name Palin:  servant.

In my view, the meaning that is most profound:  WARRIOR.

Definition of the word:

war·ri·or [wawr-ee-er] A warrior is a person experienced in or capable of engaging in combat or warfare, especially within the context of a tribal or clan-based society that recognizes a separate warrior class. According to the Random House Dictionary, the term warrior has two meanings. The first literal use refers to "someone engaged or experienced in warfare." The second figurative use refers to "a person who shows or has shown great vigor, courage, or aggressiveness, as in politics or athletics." (Wikipedia)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the brave one, keep fighting the good fight, we’ve got your back!

"For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago." (Ephesians 2:10, NLT)

Summons To Sarah Louise Heath Palin

As some of you may know, I recently headed a project asking you to write a letter to Sarah Palin encouraging her to make a run for the White House.


I asked that the letters be mailed to me and I would compile the letters and mail them all together. My goal was to reach 50 letters, and we've just about done it!


The letters are being mailed out today and will be on their way to Alaska by noon.


Below you will find the "Summons" that is be used as the "cover letter" for this project.


Thank you all who participated in this project and most importantly, for supporting future President Sarah Palin!
