Sarah Palin to Headline Wisconsin Right-to-Life Event
The press release came via email yesterday...
... and I was as pleasantly surprised as anyone. I asked Wisconsin Right to Life president Barb Lyons to dish details, and she responded:
We have been trying to get her for a year. We just found out Friday that we had her and had to wait until yesterday to release the info.... We are incredibly excited!
Me, too!
Palin's book, Going Rogue, is scheduled for release only 11 days after this event, on November 17, so the media should be worked into a frenzy.
This is Palin's 2nd speaking engagement at a pro-life banquet following her run for VP, the first being April 16 at Vanderburgh Co. Right to Life's banquet in IN, which says a lot about her deep and continued pro-life convictions.
Tickets to the Palin event at Wisconsin Right to Life are $30 each, limit 4. If I can arrange a flight to get back in time from another engagement, I'm going!

Now, now, put the daggers away.
Sarah Palin practiced what she preached. She learned that her baby was stricken with Down's Syndrome. She could have aborted, but chose to carry him to term and loves him.
The reason so many people hate her is that she is the counter-argument to the women 's right movement. She is a successful woman with a family and kids and refused the abortion when nobody would have looked down on her for aborting.
That doesn't mean /you/ have to make the same choice, it means she practiced what she preached.
The plural of 'anecdote' is not 'data'.
You said:

She's not the counter-argument to the women's rights movement.
Being a successful woman is a goal she has achieved with the help of the women's rights movement. Her right to make a choice about her own pregnancy has been earned by the women's rights movement.
The reason *I* can't stand her is that she actively works against other women making choices that she doesn't agree with. She can practice and she can preach (and preach and preach and preach) but I'm certainly not going to vote for someone who attempts to codify and enforce her personal beliefs on others.
Feminists want women to be able to make their own choices regardless of what those choices are. Sarah Palin has been able to make her own choices, but she works against the rights of other women to do the same.
So yeah, I won't vote for her.
"She can practice and she can preach (and preach and preach and preach) but I'm certainly not going to vote for someone who attempts to codify and enforce her personal beliefs on others."
If you voted for him, you are a hypocrite, then. You just hate Mrs. Palin and are scrambling for a reason why. That's sad.

First, what does Sarah Palin's attempt to legislate based upon her fundamentalist religious beliefs have to do with Obama?
Second, I clearly stated my issue with Sarah Palin. No scrambling involved. Why the accusation of hypocrisy?
Is what my psyche collapses into capitulating to the complete suckness of someone paying money to listen to Sarah Palin talk.
Similar to the effect of listenning to Sarah Palin talk, but a lot less funny.
This sham (even for a US politician) is a train wreck. She wrecked one campaign and quit her job in the face of scutiny, all the while completely unapologetic for her constant and complete ignorance and hypocrisy.
I hope John stops by and punches her in the face. And then sends her a bill for all that makeup they bought her last year.
But.... You can't.
(We know why.)

It's hard to ignore impending doom; like trying to not look at a train wreck.
I worry for my more conservative fellow citizens and the Alaskans. And hockey moms...
which is the reason she is rejected and ridiculed by the left. The leftists have inbred and proliferated to the point they are a majority...thusly we have Obama.
It will take a new generation of decent, honest Americans with a lack of progressive anti American philosophies to resurrect the country to a state of honor, decency and integrity.
Also, pretty dumb.
I promise to not make any "Sarah Palin is a patriot" jokes and stick with my "Sarah Palin thinks there are 22 letters in the alphabet" jokes.
done anything positive in your life? Sarah has!
