Sarah Palin

Have you noticed how interviews of Sarah Palin with Barbara Walters, Oprah and others have centered around her issues with her baby with Down syndrome and her pregnant unmarried daughter?
Then the issue of her not-to-be son-in-law and his display of not-too-smart judgment, while modeling himself without clothing often tops the list.
Let's review one of the most repeated questions asked of Palin, "What do you read?"
Let's try to remember any male in the political arena who was asked anything even close to that question.
Many of us are behind Sarah Palin 100 percent, and when she is made to look like she doesn't have a brain or a life and should stay at home eating moose soup, it is easy to overlook the progress she has made in Alaska in oil/energy development.
She has also gone against those who have special interests at odds with the citizens of her state.
The Bridge To Nowhere always comes up, and it is not mentioned that the project was implemented before she became governor.
If you are Christian and want to know what you can do to put the truth back into your schools, groups, and other places in need, you may want to order and view "The Future of America," featuring David Barton, and especially David Barton's "Is America A Christian Nation?"
He writes, "An epidemic of ignorance has swept through out nation, blinding many people to how quickly their liberties are being lost. And if we remain in the dark, we won't be able to stop the attacks on our freedom"..."
Those against Palin believe she doesn't have the backbone to stand up to her constituents.
Some in Alaska are referring to her departure as governor in the middle of her term when they say, "We will purchase her book and read it half way through before we put it down!"
I am hoping this mentality is from the minority that hates her. When confronted about her leaving office in mid-term her father stated, "She is not retreating; she is reloading!"
It is time for Sarah Palin to hit the political issues hard, rebuke questions not relevant to our country and show those who doubt her that when she "reloads" she will not be shooting blanks!
