Sarah Palin

Ya know what? I LIKE Sarah Palin. I LIKE her daughter Bristol. Can she dance as well as some of the other people? No. Is she more likable? Obviously. I can't believe that the media is beating her up the way they are over a DANCE show for crying out loud. She didn't ask to be put up (in the elmination show) against Brandi (who, yes, she could do some dancin', but I never felt connected to her. Too much drama.). The executive producer decides who goes up against whom. They could have put Jennifer and Brandi against each other. Anyway...I digress. It just ticks me off.

I also like her new show, Sarah Palin's Alaska. Alaska is one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. If it wasn't for the thousands-of-miles-from-nowhere-dark-24-hours-a-day-most-of-the-year thing, I'd move there. I doubt I'd ever be too hot!

One thing I like about Sarah Palin is that while she is obviously a power player, she is also a Christian. She has a wonderful relationship with her husband, and she defers to him as the head of her household. She loves her family and defends them.

Another thing I love about her is that she speaks her mind. Woman after my own heart on that one. Not afraid to call a duck a duck. Is she eloquent? Not inasmuch as other orators of our time. But she gets the point across, she isn't afraid to stand up for what she believes in, and she doesn't back down. She's as at home in a kayak in Alaska, or skeet shooting, as she is in a TV studio or taking care of her youngest baby with Downs Syndrome.

I think she takes such a beating BECAUSE she is a strong woman...on the RIGHT. If she were a liberal, the media would LOVE her instead of crucify her. Some person (I have 100 other things I'd like to call him) actually moved in NEXT door to the Palin's in Alaska to get dirt to write a book about her.

Todd Palin built a 14 foot fence between the two homes. I love it! This guy just sits outside (in ALASKA mind you) reading the newspaper trying to be all nonchalant. Jackwagon.

So I say carry on, Mrs. Palin. Kick some butt, take some names, and NEVER back down.
