Sarah Palin's Handy Pad
Much has been made, in the blog-o-sphere, of Sarah Palin having notes written on her hand and since I have a blog I thought I would give my opinion.
My first thought was what is wrong with that? The President of the United States uses a teleprompter. A private citizen uses her hand. Who cares? We have so many issues gripping this country and we are worried if a former candidate for the Vice-Presidency uses her hands to write notes? Are you kidding?
Quite frankly I like the idea that Mrs. Palin uses her hand as a note pad. It shows me a couple of things. First off, she is a true conservative. The cost of a teleprompter being at least 500 bucks (I am sure much more for a "Presidential teleprompter"). A ball point pen is less than a dollar.
The next thing is that she has a pretty good memory. There were three things written on her hand for a hour long speech, pretty impressive.
She is not an elitist, she is doing something I would do (and have done) personally. She is not "too good" to scratch out a note on her hand.
My last thought on the idea of Mrs. Palin using a "Handy Pad" is; she is a private citizen, doing her own thing. Are the bloggers going to go after me for using my hands as a handy pad? This is simply crazy. Too much time has been wasted on the subject, (including mine) lets get back to real issues.
Sarah gives the last laugh...

Sarah Palin 2010 or 2012?
I read an article about drilling for oil written by Sarah Palin in National Review, and it got me thinking again about the former Governor of Alaska.
How many politicians are out there you would feel comfortable referring to them by only their first name? What I mean is that Sarah has an "air" about her that you feel more comfortable calling her Sarah than say, Mrs. Palin, or Governor Palin. I think it is a small town thing. I lived in several the very small towns in my life; and that is one thing that is true for all of them; the people are friendly and courteous. You can't drive down the road without the driver in every car waving at you. You can't go for a walk or jog without somebody offering you a ride. That is the feeling I get from Sarah.
There was a lot made about Sarah's lack of experience during her recent Vice-Presidential bid. True she did not have the "inside the beltway" experience for the job. Quite frankly, that is something I am looking for in candidates in a federal office. I would rather have a candidate that has not been "trained" by career politicians and lobbyists. I like the idea of a candidate with no ties to the current corruption that is rampant in D.C.
A person that makes the liberals very angry, is defiantly one I would favor in any elected office. If a candidate makes the liberals mad, and call her names, it is because they are afraid of what she represents, which as far as I can tell is honesty, integrity, and moral values. These are things that make liberals very nervous. So if the liberals are mad at a candidate that is one I want.
Another reason I like Sarah Palin is; she is the only politician that my wife has ever shown any interest. Pam (my wife) does not follow politics much because she thinks "they are all crooks and liars anyway, so what does it matter". But she actually takes interest in what Sarah has to say, and in my book that is important. Pam even went as far as writing to Sarah (before she left the Governor's seat) and told her how much she liked her. So if Pam is a fan of Sarah. I am a fan of Sarah.
I do not know Sarah's political plans, I hope she wants to run for the Alaska Senator's seat that is available in 2010 or maybe a shot at the Presidency in 2012. All I know is that we need more like her in public office. I think that if this country is in the same mess that we are in now during the elections of 2010 and 2012 we are going to swing very hard right and I hope Sarah is in on the swing.

Dave Letterman is an idiot!
Who makes $32 million a year by telling jokes about raping 14 year old girls? You guessed it Dave Letterman. I am wondering exactly what Willow did to deserve that kind of humor? Sarah put herself in the spotlight, slam her she can handle it. A child did not put herself in the spotlight. This is a video of the comment and the response by Sarah Palin...
