WHEN, NOT IF
© Copyright 2011 by Anthony James
Within the ever shifting landscape of the Republican presidential candidate pool has been a constant that is both the best and the worst kept secret of the 2012 general election cycle. That secret is whether or not Sarah Palin will throw her hat into the ring as a candidate for president this time out. As I have written in my previous pieces, “Revelation: The Arc of the Candidate,” “Sarah Inches Closer,” and “What Really Makes Sarah Special,” I believe her running for president in 2012 is and has for some time been a fait accompli.
Ceteris parabus, fortis fortuit brava
That’s Latin for, “All other things being equal, fortune favors the strong.” Never in the pantheon of American politics has there been quite so unjustly vilified or viciously set-upon a heroine as Sarah Palin. The digs, insults, attacks, and attempts at personal character assassination that this woman and her lovely family have endured since her being named as John McCain’s running mate three years ago transcend, or should I say, sink well below—by an order of magnitude—the vileness heaped upon any other candidate in the rough-and-tumble history of American politics.
Yet there she stands; strong, vibrant even, and smiling, always smiling. Unfazed by the very worst that the immoral, soulless Liberal Left and terrified RINO Right could hurl at her with the all-too-willing aid of a complicit lapdog media. Even absent her amazing record in Alaska as Governor, this remarkable woman is strength personified, a spine of steel with a heart of gold. Sarah Palin is perhaps the most gifted natural-born leader this country has ever known, certainly in the last hundred years.
Which brings us to September 3, 2011 in Indianola Iowa, which will mark the three-year anniversary of her having been chosen by John McCain, and her having spoken at the Republican National Convention that night when America was first riveted by this ever-ascending superstar. Organizers for this September 3rd event have already had to change the venue to the Wells Fargo Arena to try to accommodate the masses who will descend upon the Des Moines area for this once-in-a-lifetime historical event. Good luck. Best estimates so far are that scores, and more likely hundreds of buses of avid Palin supporters from all across America have already made plans to be there, to witness in person the kickoff of next “fundamental transformation” of the United States of America.
Sarah Palin is both brilliant and caring. She is aware of just how passionately her supporters cling to the hope that she will offer herself up in service to set this great nation aright. I don’t believe Sarah has it in her to allow all these people to travel all this distance only to be disappointed. I believe September 3rd is the day that the bright sunshine of hope bursts forth once again across this great land. This, I believe with all my heart, will be the day Sarah Palin announces her candidacy for president in 2012.
When, Not If.
While there doubtless were extremely valid reasons why she might have chosen not to run this time out, I honestly believe that underneath it all she knew that she could no more avoid this fate than can the sun choose to not rise in the east on any given morning. This great secret about whether she will run has actually been a question all along of when, not if, she will officially announce. And of course therein lies an even greater truth.
When Sarah announces, life as we know it in this country, at least as we have known it for the past nearly three years, changes. Her announcement will be the equivalent of a political earthquake measuring twenty on a one-to-ten Richter scale. Many of the existing Republican candidates will drop out automatically, knowing that their continued candidacy is just a pointless waste of their and our time and money. Others who were planning to announce will start looking for work elsewhere. Sarah’s campaign coffers will explode with donations, probably in the tens of millions, as her millions of ardent supporters across America cut loose with a tidal wave of funding put aside for just this moment of moments.
On a recent call-in radio talk show from the heartland I heard a Sarah supporter telling the DJ that he had already booked a hotel room in the Des Moines area, believing in his heart that this would be the day Sarah would announce her candidacy. He made it clear that this was for him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see earthshaking, headline making history being made. Liberal heads from the upper East side of Manhattan to Union Square in San Francisco will explode in unison. Chris Matthews will forever lose his tingle. Republican and Democrat agitprop agents provocateur will begin a fevered scurrying, trying to come up with some new barb or arrow to fling at this Teflon Terror from Wasilla.
I could be wrong, but I’m not. As I state in “Revelation: The Arc of the Candidate,” the White House lies smack dab in the middle of the political path Sarah Palin has been on for the past two decades. This will only come as a surprise to those who really know nothing about her. It will however, come as an historic moment of shock and awe for every living American as we watch the beginning of the rebirth of the greatest nation in the history of all mankind. As we watch our rising star light up the future of our nation for the generations to come, and as we see America set back on her path of Manifest Destiny, to shine as a beacon of prosperity, hope and freedom to all the nations of the world.
When, not if. After all, this is still America.

Jonathan Swift could not have said it better himself. Bravo, my friend.
Excellent !!!!!! Jonathan S. a favorite
Thank you, Rego. I have waited my entire life for a President who loved God, Family, America, and our Constitution as much as I do. Now we have an absolute terror in heels (who likes to jail the complicit filth who preceeded her in office) about to help up take our country back. These are amazing times, my friend. May God bless you and yours. ~ A. James
Fabulous piece. I especially love THIS…
"Even absent her amazing record in Alaska as Governor, this remarkable woman is strength personified, a spine of steel with a heart of gold. Sarah Palin is perhaps the most gifted natural-born leader this country has ever known, certainly in the last hundred years."
Kudos!
Hi W.A. This fine lady is going to make some noise once she kicks the Quisling usurper out of our White House. My favorite line was "…a spine of steel and a heart of gold…", but then, I'm prejudiced about this author. Thank you for the encouragement. ~ A. James
Still can't decide if you are serious or a magnificent troll
When Sarah hires me as her Oval Office speechwriter, you'll have a hint as to which way you should choose. I think "C: Neither of the above" would in fact be most appropos. ~ A. J. 8^D
I have a feeeling Mr. James is right about this. If Palin announces on the 3rd, that only gives her two months to get ramped up for the first of the Primaries, which she has to come out of the blocks winning if she is going to D.C. for the next four (or eight!) years. Anyone else, I'd sat "Fat chance." But I know better than to count this little typhoon out. She's made a real-fun-to-watch name for herself making these improbable victories look easy. Run, Sarah, RUN!
Right now the Republicans have a good chance to take the White House in 2012. Sarah wins the primary and that chance dies a thousand deaths. The Independents and disenchanted Dems I know will just stay home. I know I will.
We certainly hiope we can count on you to keep your word. ~ A. James
I am ready for the Rapture. And Sarah will make it happen in my lifetime. God wills it.
That is EXACTLY what scares the bejebus out ot the sane people.
Actually, I was just trolling, although I'm not surprised that this site published my derptastic comment. If McCain had won in 2008 Palin would have nagged him into an early grave and hit that shiny red button as soon as she had the chance. Somehow I doubt you'll get the chance to read this comment.
All opinions are welcome. No vulgarity, or hate filled comments will be approved.
Awe, muffin. Nothing hate-filled, like calling Obama a radical? Or saying that he pals around with terrorists? Or comparing him to Hitler? Or saying gay people are evil? Give me a break.
Its not hate filled when the right does it.!!!!!
What colour is the sky on your planet ?
From your keyboard to God's monitor!
I hope you are correct on this.
Is god an apple guy or a windows guy
The quitter is going to bring us back to the promise land?
This woman isn't Jesus, grow a pair for heaven's sake.
She and The TEA Party are going to take our country back. You aren't worthy to lick the mud from Sarah Palin's boots, and that she should be subjected to garbage from imbeciles like you is pathetic. The good news is that we will all be called to account for how we used the blessings we were given. Sarah will do just fine. I'll be sure not to be standing too close to you, though. Laugh while you can. Time moves on, and then there's eternity. Think about it. (_8(|) Doh!
Don't know if she will announce September 3 or not, but I do 'know' SHE WILL announce her run fairly soon. I won't be discouraged if she does not announce on the 3rd. If I trust her to President, I sure trust her strategy. She has excellent instincts and knows what she is doing.
Excellent piece, Anthony. I agree with this being her [and America's] destiny.
Sarah Palin – The Antidote – Going Oval January 20, 2013!
Did you quit taking your meds?
I feel that I have gone down the rabbit hole with these guys
Are you "Glock Lady" on FR? You have a very similar writing/phrasing style. And "Thank You." ~ A.J.
Dear god your shit is funnier and more unbelievable than anything that they could come up with at the Onion. Sarah is a joke, always has been. If she runs now she is a fool. If she runs and you vote for her you are even more of a fool. She couldn't handle one state let alone an entire country.
The trove of more than 20,000 emails detailing almost every aspect of Sarah Palin’s governorship of Alaska paints a picture of her as an idealistic, efficient, informed and very involved and hard-working Governor, a caring mother and wife, and an all-around good-natured human being…not exactly what the death squads of WaPo, the NYT, and other mainstream outlets had in mind.
As Governor, Palin demonstrated many of the qualities we expect in our best leaders.
She succeeded to a remarkable extent in settling, at least for a time, what had seemed insoluble problems, in the process putting Alaska on a trajectory to financial well-being.
On the big issues she left the state in better shape than most people, herself included, seem to realize or want to credit her for.
Sarah Palin’s achievement was to pull Alaska out of a dire, corrupt, enduring systemic crisis and return it to fiscal health and prosperity when many people believed that such a thing was impossible
Erm, how about no.
This woman is a moron who has no place in politics..
Really? An I.Q. that Mensa puts at 145+ (approaching borderline genius), yet you feel she's a "moron"? What does that make you, squid? An idiot? An imbecile? You should learn to respect your betters, despite that the suggestion assumes you are capable of learning at all. What you are presenting with this ignorata is in fact quite the opposite. The State may actually want to sterilize you, to prevent the spread of your feeble intellect. Drool over that one for a while. You poor sad sack.
I am always deeply moved by such well sourced and soundly substantiated insights as yours, Dumbya. You really do the Anti-Palin crowd proud with your witty invective. Does mommy know you're using the grown-up's computer? ~ A.J.
You're delusional. If she was going to run, she would have to already be hiring up a staff – she hasn't.
This is a very thin-skinned person who can't take criticism and can never admit she's wrong. When she misspells a word in a tweet, she doesn't laugh it off, she gets defensive and compares herself to Shakespeare.
She's not running, because she could never make it through a hostile interview – couldn't handle softball questions from sweet little Katie Couric. She emerged on the national stage unprepared, largely ignorant of world affairs, Supreme Court decisions, and economics. She's had a few years to prepare, but there are no signs she's used that time wisely.
And she couldn't even finish a term as the governor of one of the tiniest (by population) states. She's not up for the grueling schedule and harsh criticism of a campaign.
Mrs. Palin will never serve in public office again, by her own choice. She'll promote the books she has ghost written for her, she'll cash six figure checks for speaking appearances, she'll raise money for candidates and be an influential voice in the conservative movement. But office? She's Pat Buchanan in a skirt.
Just knowing how her Presidency is going to make your head hurt, make you hate life, and make your life a living hell is going to keep me smiling for the next eight years after she landslides O'Bunghole into the trashbin of failed presidents next November. Yours will be a hell of your own making, as Sarah takes her rightful place with the greatest political figures in the history of mankind. Your angst will just be icing on the cake. Tool.
I really wish I knew your real email address Pliny. That way I could send you mocking emails on September 4th, in November, next spring, January 2012, and again in 2016, 2020, etc…
Instead I will come back to this article and mock you in the comments.
That's my real email address, and I'll be right here. All the PDS afflicts and Lamestream Misleadia lemmings will be jumping off the cliff after Palin announces, and those who survive that will go over the edge on November 8, 2012. Lastly, if you start harrassing my AOL mail account, you'll be responsible for what follows. Capisce? There's a good troll.
Graduate 8th grade much?
Sarah has been vetted, especially in the past 3 years like no one else; she’s probably the cleanest politician out there.
The media have done everything they can to vilify Sarah Palin and her family but despite a massive effort to destroy Sarah Palin, she is still on her feet and making a difference in the political world.
Sarah Palin resigned to get the countless frivolous complaints against her out of the governor’s office, and the money they cost the state, away from the burden of taxpayers.
That entire campaign of BS lawsuits was meant to do nothing but hamstring the governor's office and bankrupt Sarah Palin
She saw that if she stayed on as Governor it would continue to cost the state millions of dollars in wasted time and resources to defend against false and maliciously ethics complaints and doom it to gridlock.
Gov. Palin’s entire administration was paralyzed by those frivolous complaints.
In an article Gov. Palin said:
“I said, ‘Enough. Political adversaries and their political friends in the media will not destroy my State, my administration, nor my family. Enough.’ I knew if I didn’t play their game any longer, they could not win. I would not retreat, I would instead reload, and I would fight for what is right from a different plane.”
The Democrat operatives (and their Republican lackeys!!) responsible, were strangling the people’s business with their endless political manipulation of the system.
She resigned because of time and financial burden of a litany of ethics complaints..
The complaints were without merit and took away from the job she wanted to do for Alaskans.
She had also fulfilled all the campaign promises she made, i.e., ethics reform, budget cutting, earmark cutting, getting the natural gas pipeline off high center through an open, transparent, and competitive process!!!
She promised to keep the frivolous anti-Palin law suits away from the Alaskan people and to be more effective on the stump ( supporting candidates , fundraising, etc)
Sarah Palin was truthful on both accounts!
Sarah Palin basically spearheaded the 2010 victory with her endorsements, and rallies all over the country.
For the past two years Sarah Palin has worked tirelessly to fight Obama's policies and elect conservatives. (speeches,supporting candidates , fundraising, etc)
Sarah Palin was #1 in the fight while others were sitting on the fence.
She was (justly) credited with playing a central role after the Republicans swept last November .
Tell it like it is Jack! Truth always wins!!!!
Oh, she has a staff all right. You just don't know about it yet. And her grassroots support system is fully operational and gaining ground everyday. Better start paying attention. You are obviously missing alot of important information.
If she was going to run she wouldn't be working for Murdock — at least in an ethical world she wouldn't. She is playing these guys for the money.
Sometimes you've got to walk through some mud to get to the other side. That doesn't make you a bad person, just a smart one.
There are corrupt people in every business so sometimes you just have to hold your nose and do what you gotta do. Besides, where else could she go, the LSM?
LSM media give me a break she works for the largest cable out let. Her greed will prevail.
There is no more selfless or servant-focused political figure in American history than Sarah Palin. Cynical haters like you don't deserve the good she'll bring, but you are absolutely powerless to stop it, and too prejudiced and gullible to reap its benefits. That's sad, but the bed of nails upon which you lie is one of your own making, and your writhing will be your choice. Enjoy.
At least she has a better Record than Rick Perry. If not Ron Paul, I will support Palin. I dont know if she has a chance but at least she will get my vote. Perry will get NOTHING from me.
Im not sure how you all feel about it, but I am a Texas Conservative that hates Perry. My worst nightmare is him as the GOP man for President. He is the furthest thing from a conservative, according to his record. He gives pretty speeches to the Teaparty and christians then goes and does the opposite. He let an innocent man die and facilited the coverup. Cameron Todd Willingham.
I just hope we get someone I can vote for… someone i can more than just "stomach". There are alot Texans trying to get the word out about Perry and who REALLY is. Palin may be the only hope for a strong run against the Dems.
The right has two guys — Huntsman who cinched his primary failure by saying that science was a rational concept, The other is Romney, and he wears magic underwear. Rick Perry will flame out soon — 90 percent of what he says is spinning so fast it will go nuclear, at least to the more rational minds — the rest will be mesmerized by his hair and boots – then vote for Bush 2
The magic underwear of the libs are coming out in the droves on here… Absolutely love it because, the louder they speak, the more it shows how scared they are of this woman! Palin will win 2012 and nothing any one says on here can stop this big wave of discontent that is rolling across our country as we now speak… and that is what will drive the voters to the polls and get a leader for the people and not for the government.
It is not fear it is incredulousness that you folks are so susceptible to cheap marketing. It is jaw dropping actually.
My opinion…Read and study the records of all of the candidates. THEN decide who is right for this country. Don't rely on the talking points or opinions of someone else. Be responsible and educate yourself. I want Obama out but spewing hatred is NOT the way to be taken seriously. Grow up, people. I've been quietly watching and learning and my vote goes to Sarah Palin for her honesty and strength and her vision for what America SHOULD be.
Great post Linda – I agree completely…….and my vote is going for Sarah Palin too……as will many many more!
Reb
The woman doesn't know our history from a hole in the carpet. That, and she QUIT her job. She's a power hungry troll who has a "do as I say, not as I do" M.O.. (i.e. her daughter and her b.s. abstinence only campaign, and her son knocking up some woman before marriage). Honesty and strength? Puh-Lease.
Whoa there you must be xtra skeered of this strong woman.
I read the vapid, vacuous replies from the vitriolic leftists, and sometimes start to get discouraged. Then I read a post like yours, and I know that everything will be all right. America is diverse, but at its heart, she's still a great and compassionate land filled with mostly decent folks. The few dark spots are brilliantly outshone by the rays of warm light… like you. Thank you. ~ Anthony James
Beautifully written Mr. James! I've been waiting and waiting for Governor Palin to announce. I personally feel she is our greatest hope to turn not only Washington around but to reform our government and country as we know it today. She is the only one with the staying power, fortitude & passion to see it through that our country once again becomes "That Shining Light on a Hill" and the beacon of Hope for all the world. She not only will stand up and fight like a girl against the Liberal Democrats but will also stand up to these establishment Rhino Republicans in Congress! No more will the establishment Republicans with weak spines dominate the politics on the hill from the right side of the isle. Liberalism is destroying our country from within! I've watched it grow like a cancer as I am old enough to remember what a great country I had the fortunate pleasure to grow up in. The 2010 Elections in which we took back the House in a landslide was just the beginning of the Great Patriots rising up to take our country back! Hail to the Chief and future President of these United States of America, Sarah Heath Palin! You Betcha!
I read the vapid, vacuous replies from the vitriolic leftists, and sometimes start to get discouraged. Then I read a post like yours, and I know that everything will be all right.

Well, well, well! We have an intellectual here! Anyone who starts a post with "Dear god your shit" is obviously someone we should all take seriously. No, really… how to generate instant credibility and gravitas. LOL The truth is that if you want to spew ignorance and lies, you belond on KOS, D.U., Huffington Post, etc. Here on TPT we will elevate the discussion and deal in facts, not filth. Shape up or risk "The Reaper."
If you have done your OWN homework, truly, you would know that Palin IS the only choice out there to save what is left of our country. But no,…so many want to be part of that so called "cool gang that beats up on Palin". It's so fashionable don'tchaknow….
Get a life and more importantly, get some real info into your brains. Not like you did with the last Presidential election…."oh he speaks so well"….!! Yeah, we know how that one turned out don't we. So how about you learn from your mistakes and get it right this time. SARAH PALIN WILL GET THE JOB DONE AND WITH TOTAL INTEGRITY.
Sarah is the ONLY answer to solve America's problem's! She will roll over the competition with her waiting Warrior's – WE ARE READY!_SARAH2012 and Beyond!
If you have not yet had the chance to see "The Undefeated", I encourage you to do so! It was awe inspiring what this lady from Wasilla was able to accomplish all on her own! What a true patriot! She did it by standing up for what she believed in and did it with a "true servants" heart! She stood up to the corruption in her own party and won and stood up to the Oil Companies and won a great victory for the people of Alaska! "The Undefeated" will captivate you and keep you interested from start to finish and you will walk out of their having hope for our great nation once again! RUN SARAH! You go Momma Grizzy! Palin/Rubio 2012
Agreed Allen – I, too, strongly recommend people take the time to watch The undefeated – and really learn just who Sarah Palin is, what she accomplished – and against what great odds she did it!!
Reb
It will keep me captivated like reading a book with no words on the pages….or taking a shit with all the toilet paper glued together.
They don't realize that it is an advertisement created by a fanboi
Assuming you’re the ‘solid citizen’ your bio makes you out to be, I’ll bet you $10,000.00, right now, against any and all of your assets (home/car/retirement fund/trust fund/clothes/etc), that A. Sarah Palin the quitter doesn’t declare her candidacy for the republican nomination for presidential candidate for the 2012 elections, B. that if Sarah Palin does declare, she loses, stingingly, and C. If by some oddity of the laws of chance I’m wrong on the above two, her status as the republican presidential candidate in 2012 leads to a resounding re-election of President Obama.
So, whaddaya say? I could use some real estate.
BTW, yes, I’m anonymous. But I’ll be watching for your reply….you offer to take the bet, I’ll find my way back.
You are disillusional! LOL! Thanks for the laugh at such idiotic statements my friend.
As a comedy routine, your post is quite funny. As a serious wager worth being responded to in kind? I'm afraid not. Honorable citizens don't make bets anonymously, nor do they hide behind Mommy's keyboard to express their sincere views. These are the acts of a venal coward. What you "could use" is a good upbringing and likely some professional therapy. ~ A. James
Just a bit of science: The Richter scale is open ended; it doesn’t stop at 10
The author's allegorical point was to say that the magnitude of Palin's hypothetical political "earthquake" would measure "20" on a hypothetical Richter scale that DOES use a hypothetical "1-10" rating system. Which is to say, a previously unheard of mammoth political earthquake. And I know what the author meant. I write all his articles. ~ A. James
What “hypothetical” 1-10 Richter scale? The Richter scale is not hypothetical, and it doesn’t stop at 10. What other “hypothetical” scales do you use? Kelvin, Fahrenheit, bathroom?
Ah! We have here one of the "New Breed" of Americans, brought up during the Information Revolution, who as a result has developed into adulthood without an imagination! He can only discuss those tangible things which he can see and touch, and is incapable of relating to "ideas" expressed using metaphor and allegory. Matt, if I wrote, "It was like driving in a car that goes 400 miles-per-hour…" would you say, "Wow, that must have been a rush!", or would you say, "There are no cars that go 400 miles per hour!" See, Matt, there is no "political earthquake" either. It is a form of creative license employed by the very best authors to create word-pictures which transcend what we can see, touch or verify. Try it some time. It will open your mind to a whole new world. You may even become "creative…" …it means "to create," and it's that most precious part of man which is closest to God Himself.
It’s not a question of “creative license”, it’s a question of getting facts straight. Had the author said “a 20 on the Richter scale”, that’s creative license. By stating the Richter scale is 1 to 10, that shows a lack of fact-grasping. Of course, being a Sarah Palin fan fact-grasping is probably an Olympic sport. (That was some creative license)
Proof that you can lead a dog to the Hibachi, but you can't make him puke. LMAO!
License THIS! BTW, are you related to Tom Brady?
*buckled over laughing; in tears*
Oh, you!
Did this guy write this as a prank? This has to be the most god-awful thing I've read in years. So much high praise of Palin, a woman who possesses an epic lack of intellectual agility… completely eliminates any credibility this guy has as a writer. I'd sooner believe some idiot who claims he sees Jesus on a slice of toast.
Prolific trolling, my friend. Either that, or my golden retriever has a thing or two to teach you about U.S. history.
See what happens when you eat your own snots? Your brain just atrophies, and you start liking little boys. Just like Obama. Buh-bye!
Actually, I offer this piece up in all sincerity. As an aside, did you learn your historical and political insights from your "golden retriever" as you put it? Because as odd as the suggestion at first sounds, upon reflection, I suppose it's possible. In fact, it sounds just about right. The concepts you put forth align rather convincingly with the likely cerebral prowess of a medium-to-large dog. ~ A. James
I just love all the folks who are parroting the libs talking points about Sarah Palin. You are completely clueless. She will bring this country back from the brink. She is a smart and savvy politician who will run rings around any competition–that is if any are left after she announces. Palin has been vetted since day one, and they really can't find anything on her. If you read her book or saw "The Undefeated" or did any real checking on what she accomplished as governor in Alaska, you would know why she did what she did and said what she did. Otherwise, clam it because you don't know what you are talking about.
Wow I cant tell who is serious and who is not — do people really believe this – how delusional
Please let her run.. oh God PLEASE let her run. Nothing would make a Dem like me (and Tiny Fey) happier. I pray a little everyday that Sarah Palin runs for office. Seriously in these hard times.. we could all use a little laugh and she hasn’t said anything truly funny in a while. Sarah Palin running for office would be the greatest event in American history since Paul Revere “warned the British that they weren’t going to be taking away our arms by ringing those bells ” PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RUN
You still haven't learned that Palin read that (accurate) version at the Paul Revere Museum the very day she gave that (two sentence) interview, and that it is exactly what happened that night? You probably also believe that she said "I can see Russia from my porch!", despite that Palin never said that. Tina Fag said that in a SNL skit. You should probably keep getting your information and education from actors and sitcoms. If you want some real red meat, try "Jerry Springer." You can just hijack the cable line from the double-wide right next to you in the trailer park where you live and inbreed. God help us all, your vote counts as much as mine. LMAO!
I'm sorry, but you lost me when you called her record as governor of Alaska amazing. Well, on second hand, it is pretty amazing that someone would quit the job of running one of the United States and still have fans like yourself.
That Sarah fell on her sword for the good of her State, sacrificing her Governorship so she could turn and engage her attackers… and BEAT every single one of them, is part of why we love her so. Jesus said, "No greater love hath any man but that he would give up his life for his friends." Sarah's act of sacrifice, while nowhere near the magnitude of Christ's, was offered in the same spirit, and only enhances the legendary status which she owns, and which most public servants never see in their lifetimes. Your cynical response smacks of sour-grapes and at least a hint of fear. Those who oppose her most certianly have everything to fear… because she is coming, and The TEA Party is coming with her. ~ A. James
Get real she did it for the money. There's a word for that 5 letters starts with w
What money? The two dozen frivolous lawsuits against her (which, by Alalska law she had to pay to defend herself from) had her more than flat broke. Legal fees when she quit were over $450,000, more than 4 times what she and Todd had saved up. A year later she published her book, but there was no guarantee that it would become an national Number 1 Bestseller for three months in a row. In fact, if you listened to the Libtards, her book would have been just a bunch of ignorant brain-dead droolings… kind of like what you write here on this post. LMAO!!
Check out this guy's new article about Georg Washington's Ghost. Another grand slam, Palin-style.
While Sarah did not use her appearance in Iowa on September 3rd to announce that she was officially running for president, she came about as close as one can without making it official. She DID lay out "her plan" for fixing all of the problems that ail this nation by addressing the root cause of our ills instead of putting band-aids over the symptoms.She also had this gem:
"The real challenge is not whether we will replace Obama in 2012, but who we will replace him with…"
No, she didn't say, "I am running for president in 2012," but what she DID say made it quite clear that she intends to. I'll trust her timing on that last bit of formality. Run, Sarah, RUN!
Anthony James, I'll put your last phrase of yours on a bumper sticker…on the FRONT of my car (Hell, they said it about Jesse Jackson years ago…where's your sense of humor, boy?!?)
