Sarah Palin's Veterans Day Message

But I do think that elite makers of opinion in this country try very hard to ignore the larger meaning of violent acts when they happen to be perpetrated by Muslims.It instantly reminded me of this line posted at NRO by Anthony Dick on July 8, 2009:
Elite opinion makers do not, as a rule, try to protect Christians and Christian belief from investigation and criticism.
It is not enough for conservatives simply to be intelligent or sophisticated. They have to project these qualities, conspicuously and convincingly, in order to get past the visceral prejudices of elite opinion-makers, who generally regard conservative ideas as some combination of boobish, evil, backward, boring, dangerous, and simplistic.The Atlantic and National Review are examples of the elite establishment of the Republican party. It's not surprising to me that they use the same language to describe what they aspire to be - elite opinion makers. They simply cannot get passed their prejudices of the common American citizen. They strive for a leader to tell them what to do and how to think. Even an assessment of Hasan's character leads to a discussion on what the "elite opinion makers" need to do and say instead of discussing the monster that he is.
On the Tragic Shooting Today at Ft. Hood

Todd and I would like to offer our condolences to the families of the victims of the tragic shooting today at Ft. Hood. Our thoughts and prayers will be with them.

Independent voters are moving strongly to Republican candidates in the New Jersey and Virginia governors races, an ominous sign for Democrats whose gains in 2006 and 2008 were built on heavy support from unaligned voters.In Liberal Fantasy Land, "Independents" are the magical voters who are above party affiliation. They are the ultimate Prize and must be won at all costs. They are the Key to winning any election and both Democrats and Republicans (but mostly Republicans) need to change their party to fit the "Independents." Since they don't have political views, it's hard find out exactly how the party needs to change, but you still need to do it anyway.
Road Trip! Book Tour Announcement
Sarah Palin Facebook notes
Today at 4:40pm
I am very, very excited about the upcoming road trip for my book. It will be an honor to meet as many of you as possible!
“Going Rogue” publisher HarperCollins is working hard to schedule book signings across the nation, and we’ll be announcing the locations in the next day or two. I’ve decided to travel to cities outside of the typical book tour venues, and I hope to cover as much of the country as I can.
We’re in the process of arranging interviews with local and national media. An interview with Oprah Winfrey is already scheduled, and I’m also hoping to have the opportunity to talk with Bill O’Reilly, Barbara Walters, Sean Hannity, Greta Van Susteren, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, Dennis Miller, Tammy Bruce, and others, including local Alaska personalities Bob & Mark and Eddie Burke. (Variety is the spice of life!)
Can’t wait to hit the road. Can’t wait to see you!
