Sarah Palin Inspires Texas County Clerk to “Fight Like A Girl” For God and Country

Here’s an interesting story from Bowie County in Northeast Texas. It seems in June, County Clerk Natalie Nichols was out of town, and while she was gone, the Commissioner’s Court voted to wipe out any mention of the prayer and Pledge of Allegiance from its records. They did this on June 13, the day before National Flag Day. That didn’t sit well with Natalie.

Here is video of Natalie Nichols telling the Commissioner’s Court how it’s going to be:

From Devonia Smith:

Inspired by Sarah Palin, a new GOP star was born over the Independence Day weekend. The day after the Fourth of July, news spread like wildfire of the spunky independence of Bowie, Texas, County Clerk Natalie Nichols, who returned from out of town to find that during her absence, (Nichols is rumored to be off at the pre-screening “Undefeated” in Grapevine), the Commissioner’s Court had voted to wipe out any mention of the prayer and Pledge of Allegiance from its records. Nichols refused to bow to that motion, and like Palin, her actions are being applauded nationally. Thus far, she, like Palin is also “Undefeated.”

Though the motion had passed with a 3 to 1 vote approval, Nichols is being heralded as a GOP heroine for thumbing her nose at both the motion and the underlying threat potential of an ACLU lawsuit. The potential of a lawsuit was stated as the reason the motion was passed – and the purpose of not recording the actions in the meetings was in a hope to hide the official record that a small county Court Commission dared to say the Pledge and bow their heads in prayer before official business. Right before Nichols read her statement of refusal, Nichols says that the County Legal Adviser actually said, “She was seeking further legal action.

“Nichols is undaunted by the threat of legal action and says that perhaps the ACLU can sue to prevent the prayer, prevent the Pledge and maybe she can be forced out of her position, but Nichols feels certain no one can sue her for doing her job until then – writing down what happens at the meetings. And if any commissioners want to object to the way she does her job, why then, Nichols says she’ll write their objections down as well. But the Pledge, the prayer, those go in and as long as she is there, those will stay in.

A hint about why Nichols didn’t hesitate to challenge the court can be found in Nichol’s personal choice of heroines. A twelfth generation American, Nichols shares that, although she never voted before the last presidential election, she was “inspired by Sarah Palin and realized there were conservative, strong women out there, like myself, and that we actually could make a difference.”

She went on to explain why she admired Palin, “mainly because she is a mother and doesn’t apologize for that. She’s holding strong in her convictions and she doesn’t hide her Christianity, which is very important to me. “

Here’s an interview Nichols did when she was running for office. She says her political inspiration comes from Ronald Reagan and Sarah Palin. Listening to her speak, I remember reading Sarah Palin’s story. A PTA mom just wanting to make things better for her kids. As I listen to Natalie, I’m thinking we have a future GOP star.

Sarah Palin is important to America for a multitude of reasons, but the fact she inspires so many others to step up and be heard may be one of the most important. Sarah Palin is a living reminder that in America, if you work hard, and use the talents God gave you, you can accomplish anything.

As for Natalie, something tells me we are going to be hearing about her for years to come.

Large Crowd In Minnesota For Bristol and Sarah Palin’s Book Signing

By Gary P Jackson

Fresh from the world premier of The Undefeated in Pella, Iowa, Sarah Palin, Todd, and daughter Bristol were at the Mall of America in Minnesota. Bristol was there to sign copies of her new book Not Afraid of Life and as a bonus, Sarah was signing America by Heart as well.

From The Republic:

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — Security is tight as Sarah Palin helps her daughter kick off a book tour at Mall of America.

Both Bloomington police and mall security are on hand Wednesday as the former Alaska governor and Republican vice-presidential candidate appears with Bristol Palin at a joint book-signing.

Customers have to pass through a checkpoint before getting the two to sign copies of their latest books.

The mall estimates about 1,500 people turned out and that the Palins did about 700 autographs.

Bristol Palin’s memoir, “Not Afraid of Life,” came out last week and Wednesday is her first public event. Sarah Palin’s “America by Heart” was released last fall. HarperCollins imprints published both books.

They have some great photos on their website. Click here to view.

Jedediah Bila: Setting the Palin Record Straight

By Gary P Jackson

One of our favorite writers, Jedediah Bila, takes on the left and the Republican establishment in her latest column at Human Events. Here she hammers those who would talk trash about Sarah Palin!

It’s truly astonishing the lengths that some will go to in order to try to discredit Sarah Palin. Sure, the left-wing media loons are a given, but what about the folks on the Right who relentlessly brand her as unelectable, unintelligent, unpresidential, and/or unqualified? What is their basis for those assessments? And if she is so darn unelectable—why the need to consistently, near-obsessively attempt to tear her down?

What’s most interesting about the repeated attacks on Palin – from the Left and the Right – is that they are routinely empty. They are often featured in online hit pieces that are void of any reference to her record and/or her contributions over the past two years to discussions of national and international significance. They focus on absurd criticism of her TLC series, which so many elitists deemed anti-intellectual and so many regular Americans deemed relatable.

They call her a “quitter” because she resigned from the governorship, but don’t reveal the reality that she was faced with numerous frivolous ethics charges made by political operatives that were costing her state hundreds of thousands of dollars and her staff countless hours to refute. The fact that she made the right decision for Alaska, and that the charges were all ultimately dismissed, get buried under the frenzied need some have to try to sabotage her at all costs.

And let’s not forget the manner in which the authors of these hit pieces so often compile every possible negative quotation on Palin they can find, particularly from the mouths of whom they consider to be the conservative intellectual elite. The quotes are typically nonsensical and/or erroneous, and mark embarrassing moments for those who uttered them, as they tend to reflect a complete lack of awareness of Palin’s accomplishments, writings, and outspoken stand on policy initiatives.

Since September 2010 alone, Sarah Palin has penned commentary on such topics as the unrest in Libya, the protests in Wisconsin, Obama’s 2012 budget proposal and State of the Union address, getting tough with Iran and standing with Iranians who seek democracy, challenging the specifics of President Obama’s energy policy, the omnibus spending bill, defeating the New START, opposition to state bailouts, tax policy, a message to Republican freshmen in Congress, opposition to quantitative easing, and more.

She has repeatedly been a leading voice—via television appearances and speaking engagements—against the dangers of ObamaCare and the risks of President Obama’s approach to energy. During the 2010 election season, SarahPAC endorsed 81 candidates across the country. Let’s take a look at a few samples of Palin’s written commentary ….

Jedediah is just getting warmed up! Check out the rest of her column here.

Jedediah Bila: “Send Obama to Wasilla to talk to an energy expert!”

By Gary P Jackson

This is delicious. While appearing on Fox Business News’ Nightly Scoreboard Monday night, Jedediah Bila offered up some solid advice: Send Obama up to Wasilla, Alaska and have Sarah Palin school him in the fine art of drill baby, drill!

It just so happens, Whitney Pitcher reports that Sarah called Obama out, big time, on Tuesday, saying that Obama was “scary wrong” on oil and gas policy. Whitney put together an incredible report on just how much oil and natural gas is available in Alaska as well as the rest of the United States. Check Whitney’s report here.

Reuters: Americans Most Want Sandra Bullock, Sarah Palin As Neighbors

By Gary P Jackson

Online real estate marketer Zilliow.com surveyed American adults asking them who they would like to have living next door to them. As it turns out, Sandra Bullock and Sarah Palin topped the list coming in first and second respectively. The cast of Jersey Shore were voted “worst neighbors” in the polling.

From Reuters:

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Americans would most like to live next door to actress Sandra Bullock in 2011, but the cast of the reality show “Jersey Shore” made the most undesirable neighbors, according to a poll released on Tuesday.

Bullock, who has won huge audiences with her All-American, girl-next-door image, earned more than a quarter of the vote in the annual poll on the most desirable celebrity neighbors, conducted by online real estate marketplace Zillow.com.

She was followed by conservative Republican politician, Sarah Palin. That may bode well for people in Arizona as on Monday, headlines trumpeted the news that her daughter, Bristol Palin, had bought a home in the state.

President Barack Obama, his wife Michelle and daughters Malia and Sasha dropped three places to No. 4 on the list after coming out on top last year. They were proceeded by talk show hosts Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia DeRossi at No. 3. Rounding out the top five was talk show host Conan O’Brien.

This comes on the heels of Sarah Palin being named to Gallup’s “Most Admired Woman” Top 10 for the third year in a row. For the ninth consecutive year, Hillary Clinton was chosen as the “Most Admired Woman” with Sarah Palin being chosen second for her third consecutive year in a row.

The Gallup poll asks those surveyed to choose both the most admired man and most admired woman living anywhere in the world.

Pamela Geller Joins Sarah Palin As One Of The 10 Biggest Conservative Stand-outs Of 2010

By Gary P Jackson

Pamela Geller is someone I admire greatly. She’s tough, smart, and as courageous as they come. Her website, Atlas Shrugs is one of the must read sites on the internet. Pamela is like a one woman army as she exposes radical Islam and the violence and death that comes with it.

Pamela has been the leading voice of opposition to the so-called Cordoba House Project, what I like to call the 9/11 Victory Mosque.

Students of history will tell you stories of the Islamic conquest of Cordoba, Spain, around 766 A.D., and how they took control of a Christian church and build a grand mosque in it’s place, as a symbol of Islamic dominance worldwide. You might say they were rubbing the noses of the conquered in their victory.

The Muslim extremists want to build the Cordoba House on the hallowed ground of the 9/11 attacks, right at Ground Zero, as a sign they have conquered America.To rub our noses in 9/11.

Pamela Geller has taken up the fight and said: “Not on my watch pal!”

Right Wing News has chosen the Top 10 Conservatives who really made a difference in 2010. From their tribute to Pamela:

Pamela Geller: Pamela runs the pre-eminent anti-radical Islam website on the Internet Atlas Shrugs, she’s in charge of Stop Islamization of America and she had a new book out, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration’s War on America.

However, Pamela makes this list because she, more than any other person, was on point in the fight against the mosque at Ground Zero. Right from the beginning she was organizing protests and drawing attention to the project. Meanwhile, she was falsely slurred and attacked by the Left, the mainstream media, and apologists for radical Islam. That was simply because she refused to stand by and say nothing while a celebratory mosque was built in the shadow of the Twin Towers. If the Ground Zero Victory Mosque isn’t ultimately built, no one will deserve more of the credit than Pamela Geller.

Back in October RWN’s John Hawkins interviewed Pamela. If you haven’t read it, please take the time to go here and do so.

Pamela is joined on by Sarah Palin on the list. They had this to say about their choice for the top slot:

Sarah Palin: It might be easier to ask: What has Sarah Palin not done this year? She was one of the most effective voices in the fight against Obamacare, she became a popular Fox News contributor, she just released a new book, she has her own TV show Sarah Palin’s Alaska, and she was a force of nature in the 2010 elections where she raised millions, swung primaries with her endorsements, and did more to get women candidates elected this cycle than anyone else in history. Say what you want about Sarah Palin, but nobody in American politics had a bigger and better year than she did in 2010.

We are proud to join Right Wing News in saluting Pamela Geller, one of America’s true patriots and a staunch defender of Liberty and Freedom.

GOP Taps Sarah Palin’s Endorsees For Help With Transition To Power

By Gary P Jackson

The Republican Party has chosen three of Sarah Palin’s candidates to be party of the team that will help with the transition of power in the House of Representatives.

These new members of Congress are:

Adam Kinzinger of Illinois:

Tim Scott of South Carolina:

Martha Roby of Alabama:

From the Associated Press:

WASHINGTON — House Republicans have tapped two newly elected congressmen who drew tea party backing in their campaigns to help lead the party’s transition to power.

Adam Kinzinger of Illinois and Tim Scott of South Carolina, who won endorsements by Sarah Palin and support from tea party activists, are part of a newly named 22-member team charged with crafting new rules and smoothing the GOP’s shift from minority to majority.

The team, led by Rep. Greg Walden of Oregon and headquartered in the basement of the Capitol, is to meet Monday night and Tuesday. It includes several seasoned veterans and influential members like 15-term Rep. David Dreier of California, in line for his second stint as head of the powerful Rules Committee, Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, in line to head the Budget Committee, and Rep. Pete Sessions of Texas, the GOP campaign committee chief.

Rep. Doc Hastings of Washington, one of a large crop of GOP lawmakers who came to Congress 16 years ago, the last time Republicans seized control of the House, is part of the group.

Two other freshmen, Cory Gardner of Colorado and Martha Roby of Alabama, are also on the roster.

Walden said he didn’t choose the team based on whether they had tea party backing, telling reporters last week that he wasn’t sure whether those he was recruiting were supported by the conservative-libertarian movement. “It’s a nice cross-section of our Republican conference,” he said of the group.

But it’s clear Republicans are aware that the grass-roots movement that helped propel them to big wins in last week’s elections will be an important part of their new House majority and bolstered Senate minority.

Many of the newly elected Republicans are political novices, including a pizzeria owner and a gospel singer. All four first-termers on the transition team have some degree of experience in elected office; Scott and Gardner have been state legislators while Roby has served as a city councilwoman and Kinzinger on a county board.

Christine O’Donnell: Sarah Palin Most Admirable…, posted with vodpod

By Gary P Jackson

This is a little snippet from an interview Christine O’Donnell gave Greta a few days ago. Greta asks her which politicians she admired, dead or alive. Christine answered Ronald Reagan and of course, Sarah Palin. Christine goes on to elaborate why.

Thanks to Sheya at PalinTV

In case you missed the interview with Greta:

Funny, she doesn’t come off insane does she? You think maybe the corrupt lamestream media may have been lying to us?

Christine has a solid grasp of foreign affairs. She understands what needs to be done.

Her idea to give military vets vouchers for routine care, so they don’t have to travel long distances to see a VA doctor, is brilliant. It will save everyone money, and free up the VA for more serious cases.

You can read more about that here.

Christine is a rock solid Conservative and will make a fine Senator. If you are looking for a candidate to help out, to get involved with their GOTV efforts, visit her website and volunteer.

Follow Christine on Facebook and Twitter as well.

Remember, this is a special election and Christine O’Donnell will be the only thing stopping the lame duck, and soundly defeated, democrat controlled Congress from passing some dangerous legislation like cap and tax, or amnesty, as a parting shot to you ungrateful voters who are throwing them out!

ABC Television, A Class Act: Yet Another Media Lie About Sarah Palin Debunked

By Gary P Jackson

If you’ve been paying attention, the corrupt, left wing, lamestream media in this country hit a new low last night. As Both Stacy Drake and I wrote about here and here, after Jennifer Grey and her partner, Derek Hough, put on a thrilling performance Monday night, many in the audience were upset that the judges didn’t give them higher scores. As the last judge’s score was given, many erupted, booing quite loudly.

For the record, I thought she got hosed too, and as we now know, so did Sarah Palin, as she was booing as well!

As it happens, and you will see in the video above, while all of this was going on, and Brooke Burke was interviewing Jennifer and Derek, co-host Tom Bergeron was crossing the dance floor to get ready to introduce Sarah.

Now anyone who actually watched the show on Monday night, heard the crowd cheer loudly when Tom introduced Mama Grizzly. If there was gonna be boos, that would have been the time to make it happen.

In fact, every time Bristol and Mark were shown the crowd cheered loudly as well. Bristol and Mark are clearly favorites of both the fans, and the judges, and rightly so. They are doing a great job, as we wrote here.

This should put an end to this nonsense, but sadly, the crazies on the left are already analyzing this modern day Zapruder Film frame by frame. The conspiracy theories are being thought up as I type this. All we need now is a budding young Arlen Specter with a “magic boo” theory and we’ll be all set!

All I can say is ABC and Dancing With The Stars, and the people who produce these shows, are all class acts. They have gone out of their way to point out the lies coming from the corrupt lamestream media, and correct the record.

One thing about this little episode. Over 20 million people, normal, every day people, saw first hand just how far the corrupt media in this country will go to lie about Sarah Palin, even with the most insignificant of things.

That’s 20 million moms and dads and kids who may have never been exposed to the corrupt, limp, impotent losers that make up the lamestream media before. Or at least may have never realized they are lied to on a daily basis by these nimrods.

That’s 20 million people (plus) who will now think twice before believing the next smear against Sarah, or anyone else targeted by these useless “journalists.”

That’s a good thing.
