“I can see Russia from my house.” So spoke comedienne Tina Fey impersonating Governor Sarah Palin in a recent Saturday Night Live skit poking fun at the Governor’s foreign policy acumen among other perceived foibles. This skit reflects the actual criticism of Governor Palin’s foreign policy credentials by the Obama campaign and various political and [...]

“Troopergate”: Wooten Himself Thinks Palin is “Fantastic” Choice
I was recently provided with a link to this post from the female bloggers of Slate Magazine. Generally, I try not to respond to these types of attacks as my arguments aren’t likely to change any minds. However, I found this post to be incredibly offensive and as it seems to summarize the worst bits [...]

Oprah Plays Politics, Angers Viewers
Andrew Breitbart has an interesting piece in The Washington Times on Oprah Winfrey’s refusal to have Gov. Sarah Palin on her day-time talk show. Here’s an excerpt:
If ever there were a candidate destined to shine on “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” Sarah Palin would be that woman.
In less than a week, the Alaska governor, former [...]

“…the surge has succeeded…”
Sen. Obama finally-finally-acknowledged that the troop surge in Iraq has helped to reduce violence. Yesterday, Obama told Bill O’Reilly, “I think that the surge has succeeded in ways that nobody anticipated. I’ve already said it’s succeeded beyond our wildest dreams.” In “way that nobody anticipated”? Are you kidding me? What [...]

“Alaska Maverick”
Though the mainstream media is trying to push a different narrative, the reality is that Gov. Palin is more experienced and has done more than Sen. Obama.
Gov. Palin has an actual record of reform. Sen. Obama does not.

A Win for Conservatism
The most important thing McCain’s choice of Palin does, first and foremost, is put conservatism back in the lead as the guiding governing ideology of the Republican Party. With the selection of McCain as the nominee (and, as most of you know, he was my second choice) many were worried that conservatism was being relegated [...]

“A spectre is haunting the liberal elites of New York and Washington”
William Kristol has an outstanding piece today in the Weekly Standard on Governor Palin, what she means for the conservative movement and why she is feared by the left. Here’s an excerpt:
A spectre is haunting the liberal elites of New York and Washington–the spectre of a young, attractive, unapologetic conservatism, rising out of the American [...]

Palin More Experienced than Obama
Jeff Emanuel at RedState has a great post comparing Governor Palin’s experience to Sen. Obama’s. You will see that he has absolutely no executive experience while she has over ten years. She also has a record of reforming government while Obama does not. As Emanuel notes, keep in mind that they are [...]

Pro-Abortion Lobby Begins its Attacks
Susan B. Anthony List’s Political Director (and a former collegue of mine), Joy Yearout, easily won her debate yesterday on Fox News with Pro-Abortion activist Liz Chadderdon of the Chadderdon Group. Although Gov Palin is most certainly an advocate for Pro-Life Americans, even Chadderdon initially hesitates to describe her as NARAL does, “extreme and rigid.” The truth [...]
