Posted note from Sarah Palin’s Facebook page:

We’ve been reminded many times that elections have consequences. Yesterday we saw the consequence of voting for those who believe in “fundamentally transforming” America whether we want it or not. Yesterday they voted. In November, we get to vote. We won’t forget what we saw yesterday. Congress passed a bill while Americans said “no,” and thousands of everyday citizens even surrounded the Capitol Building to beg them not to do it. Has there ever been a more obvious exhibition of a detached and imperious government?

In the weeks to come, we can expect them to try to change the subject, but we won’t forget. Don’t let them move on to further “transformational” steps while forgetting what Congress just did against the will of the people. Though Obamacare will inflict billions in new taxes on individuals and employers, at least it creates some jobs: the IRS might have to hire as many as 16,000 new employees to enforce all the new taxes and penalties the bill calls for! And that doesn’t include all the other government jobs from the 159 new agencies, panels, commissions and departments this bill will create. As the private sector shrinks, we can count on government to keep growing along with the deficits needed to keep it all afloat. (Is this the kind of “change” Americans asked for?)

In the end, this unsustainable bill jeopardizes the very thing it was supposed to fix – our health care system. Somewhere along the way we forgot that health care reform is about doctors and patients, not the IRS and politicians. Instead of helping doctors with tort reform, this bill has made primary care physicians think about getting out of medicine. It was supposed to make health care more affordable, but our premiums will continue to go up. It was supposed to help more people get coverage, but there will still be 23 million uninsured people by 2019.

Though they’d like us to forget, we will remember the corrupt deals, the corrupt process, the lack of transparency, the deceptive gimmicks to game the CBO score, and the utter disregard for the will of the American people. Elections have consequences, and we won’t forget those who promised to hold firm against government funding of abortion, but caved at the last minute in exchange for a non-binding executive order promised by the most pro-abortion president to ever occupy the White House.

All along we’ve said that we want real health care reform, but this isn’t it. We mustn’t be discouraged now. We must look to November when our goal will be to rebuke big government’s power grab, reject this unwanted “transformation” of America, and repeal dangerous portions of Obamacare that will bury us under more Big Government control.

This is just the beginning of our efforts to take back our country. Consider yesterday’s vote a clarion call and a spur to action. We will not let America sink into further debt without a fight. We will not abandon the American dream to government dependency, fewer freedoms and less opportunity. Change is made at the ballot box. If we work together, we can renew our optimistic pioneering spirit, revive our economy, and restore constitutional limits.

Stand tall, America. November is coming!

- Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin joined Fox News this week as a contributor and will soon host periodic episodes of “Real American Stories,” an inspirational real-life tales of overcoming adversity throughout American landscape.

“I am thrilled to be joining the great talent and management team at Fox News. It’s wonderful to be part of a place that so values fair and balanced news,” Sarah Palin said in a written release.

Sarah debuted Tuesday, January 12th on ‘The O’Reilly Factor’ and was able to hold her own against the one and only, Bill O’Reilly. (I must say, Sarah Palin ROCKS!!)

There is an honest and straightforward approach to her style which is extremely refreshing to the electorate. Common sense conservatism is on the rise and while Palin haters continue to attack her, the more unified her base and support becomes. There is real energy among Palin fans and those independents who are keeping an open mind that listen to her are concerned about policy and decision making not so much whether she is a viable 2012 Presidential candidate.

In an hour-long candid interview with Glenn Beck on Wednesday, January 13th, former Alaska Governor Sarah discussed being a warrior for freedom and liberty.

Sarah Palin is a classy woman who is looking to do good by proposing real change and reestablishing our nation with conservative core principles. There is an understanding of history, culture, and practicality which informs her to make the decisions and to advance policies that will benefit us all.

Collectively, the Founding Fathers came together to create a government that would best serve the people of this great land. Out of ‘diversity’, Sarah feels that they all had a special role to play in making this country a beacon for mankind. Like many of us who value our independence and freedom, she admires George Washington. Leaders rise to the top out of the best intentions for the people served, “a statesman”.

“He returned power to the people. Then he went back to Mount Vernon and he went back to his farm. That is who you need to find to serve in government, in a bureaucracy. Those who you know will serve for the right reasons because they’re reluctant to get out there and seek a limelight and seek the power. They’re doing it for people. That was George Washington.” – Sarah Palin

Palin’s strong faith and belief in God is extremely important in her life which has allowed Sarah to utilize her special God-given gifts to push forward despite the ridiculous claims from her opposition. In a humble moment she would, “be perfectly happy to go back to Wasilla, Alaska, with my five children and grandson and raise a happy, healthy family and love the great outdoors and do the things we do in Alaska.” Palin continued that she wanted to seek the public spotlight because she believes “that in some capacity I can help this great nation.”

Whether Sarah Palin decides to run in 2012 as president remains to be known but one thing is certain, there is no stopping the barracuda. She is a courageous, smart, and an American Patriot who will continue to voice her opinions, share thoughts, and express concerns regarding the future of our country. The more Palin speaks out, the more it infuriates the left. She is a treasure and one who we know will actually speak the truth. God bless Sarah and the Palin family.

Wednesday on The O’Reilly Factor follow-up: Bill O’Reilly and Dennis Miller on Sarah Palin, Harry Reid, and late-night comedy.

Part 1

Part 2

As a huge supporter of Sarah Palin, in admiration of a rising star, I share many of the same beliefs – those of which are a following of conservative principles with a common-sense approach to tackle and solve problems in everyday life. First and foremost it is the basic understanding of limited government and personal responsibility along with strong convictions in faith, family and community. Supporting a strong military to defend and protect as there is no greater sacrifice than those who are on the front lines.

It all boils down to preserving our Constitution of individual liberty and freedom. Appreciating these core values as well as our historical foundings and best economic practices are what will make America prosper and thrive.

People are lining up from all over this great nation to take part in Sarah Palin’s book tour. Whether they support Sarah for a 2012 Presidential run or to hear an authentic refreshing voice, Americans are united on one front and that is to learn more about the former Governor of Alaska.

From ‘Rogue’ Politician to Best-Selling Author: Defining Sarah Palin’s ‘It Factor’

While Sarah Palin is hardly the first politician to release a memoir, in many ways, the enthusiastic response to the former Alaska governor’s “Going Rogue: An American Life” boasts a story like no other.

Since the announcement of its impending release months ago, numbers for “Going Rogue” have been remarkable. Harper Collins initially announced a first printing of 1.5 million copies, half a million more than the first printing of Hillary Clinton’s long-anticipated memoir, “Living History.” But by last Friday, just three days after its release, the publisher announced it would increase those numbers by 1 million.

By Tuesday morning, the Associated Press, which had assigned a whopping 11 reporters to fact-check the book, announced that it had sold 700,000 copies in its first week alone, trailing the first-week sales of Bill Clinton’s “My Life” by just 200,000 units. And if sales weren’t telling enough, Palin’s appearance on “Oprah” in support of “Rogue” earned the talk-show giant her highest ratings in two years.

Going Rogue: An American Life
Barnes & Noble | Amazon

One year ago, Sarah Palin burst onto the national political stage like a comet. Yet even now, few Americans know who this remarkable woman really is.
On September 3, 2008 Alaska Governor Sarah Palin gave a speech at the Republican National Convention that electrified the nation and instantly made her one of the most recognizable women in the world.
As chief executive of America’s largest state, she had built a record as a reformer who cast aside politics-as-usual and pushed through changes other politicians only talked about:

Energy independence. Ethics reform. And the biggest private sector infrastructure project in U.S. history. While revitalizing public school funding and ensuring the state met its responsibilities to seniors and Alaska Native populations, Palin also beat the political “good ol’ boys club” at their own game and brought Big Oil to heel.

Like her GOP running mate, John McCain, Palin wasn’t a packaged and over-produced “candidate.” She was a Main Street American woman: a working mom, wife of a blue collar union man, and mother of five children, the eldest of whom was serving his country in a yearlong deployment in Iraq and the youngest, an infant with special needs. Palin’s hometown story touched a populist nerve, rallying hundreds of thousands of ordinary Americans to the GOP ticket.

But as the campaign unfolded, Palin became a lightning rod for both praise and criticism. Supporters called her “refreshing,” “honest,” a kitchen-table public servant they felt would fight for their interests. Opponents derided her as a wide-eyed Pollyanna unprepared for national leadership. But none of them knew the real Sarah Palin.

In this eagerly anticipated memoir, Palin paints an intimate portrait of growing up in the wilds of Alaska; meeting her lifelong love; her decision to enter politics; the importance of faith and family; and the unique joys and trials of life as a high-profile working mother. She also opens up for the first time about the 2008 presidential race, providing a rare, mom’s-eye view of high-stakes national politics – from patriots dedicated to “Country First” to slick politicos bent on winning at any cost.

Going Rogue traces one ordinary citizen’s extraordinary journey, and imparts Palin’s vision of a way forward for America and her unfailing hope in the greatest nation on earth.

Another Palin Hit Job: Newsweek Cover Claims

Sarah Palin’s new book “Going Rogue” is set for release on Nov. 17 and with that will likely come a media blitz of epic proportions. However, based on the cover of the Nov. 23 issue of Newsweek, someone felt a response was warranted.

The wizards of smart at Newsweek took an image from a shoot of Palin that originally appeared in Runner’s World magazine for the cover and splashed the headlines, “How Do You Solve a Problem Like Sarah?” and “She’s Bad News for the GOP – and For Everybody Else, Too.”

The Rise of the Conservative Woman

One of the most revealing things about liberals is their insistence that only they can define a “real” minority or a “real” woman. In the eyes of the left, Clarence Thomas, Ken Blackwell and J.C. Watts will never be “real” black men. Likewise, Michele Bachmann, the smiling firebrand conservative congresswoman from Minnesota, and Sarah Palin, the popular former governor of Alaska, will never be “real” women.

How can they be? After all, these women don’t support abortion. In fact, Palin actually had the audacity to give birth to a baby with Down Syndrome. As one embarrassed liberal wag put it during last year’s presidential campaign, “If abortion isn’t for that, what is it for?”

[...]

When you hear elitists across the political spectrum vilify conservative women like Palin and Bachmann, know that it is because they fear them. Left wing politicians of either gender represent the politics of the past. Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann represent the future. That makes them dangerous
