Sarah Palin Rocks!

Posted by The Diva on sarah palin

Hi everyone! This is my 1st post for this blog. First off, I just want to say that this blog would not have existed, had John McCain not selected Sarah Palin for his VP for this 2008 Presidential Election. Why? Because Sarah Palin Rocks. PERIOD :)

Okay. That was a joke! Sarah Palin Rocks because of all the following reasons:

a) She’s a mom

She’s a mom of five kids: Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper and Trig.

b) She’s pro-life

And she lives by what she believes. Trig is a very cute 5 months old baby boy, who was born with a down syndrome, who because of his parents’ love, was given a CHOICE to live.

c) She’s a fiscal conservative and pro small government

She believes in wise and controlled spending and cutting taxes when needed. In fact, she started her career in politics as the member of the city council of a small town in Alaska called Wasilla, in 1992. Palin says she entered politics because she was concerned that revenue from a new Wasilla sales tax would not be spent wisely. She also used her veto power to make the second-largest cuts of the construction budget in state history. The $237 million in cuts represented over 300 local projects, and reduced the construction budget to nearly $1.6 billion. In 2008 Palin vetoed $286 million in funds for 350 projects from the FY09 capital budget.

d) She’s a maverick

She took down the incumbent governor of Alaska, Frank Murkowski, a Republican governor. She was running on a clean goverment platform and successfully managed to enact on his campaign platform. Her first legislative action after taking office was to push for a bipartisan ethics reform bill.

e) She’s a businesswoman

She and her husband own a commercial fishing company.

f) She’s beautiful

Have you seen her? :)

g) She gives the word “FEMINIST” breath of fresh air

According to wiki, feminist is:

  • A person who supports the equality of women with men.
  • A member of a feminist political movement.
  • One who believes in the social, political, and economical equality of the sexes.

And feminism is:

A social theory or political movement supporting the equality of both sexes in all aspects of public and private life; specifically, a theory or movement that argues that legal and social restrictions on females must be removed in order to bring about such equality.

So, by definition, Palin is a feminist and she is actually a member of the Feminist for Life organization.

h) She’s not part of the Washington establishment (congress,senate)

She’s lived her whole adult life in Alaska…need I say more?

Because McCain had picked Sarah Palin as his running mate, the Conservative Republican base is energized. I am energized! Hats off for John McCain for picking Sarah Palin. Looking at her and listening to her talking, I can feel she’s so one of us. She may not be an excellent interviewee, but as long her heart…and her HEAD are in the right place…WHO CARES?!?
