Obama’s “political courage” pales next to Palin
I wish I could be in St. Paul this week, but duty calls. Today, we were able to secure a landmark ruling in a major murder case that will help protect citizens in the years ahead.
At night, I have been following the convention closely. I am staggered at the pettiness and smears the national news media are hurling at Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.
It’s surprising. The news media ought to appreciate Palin’s unquestioned record of reform in the midst of a corrupt environment. We need more Sarah Palins in government. If Barack Obama had her political courage, our state wouldn’t be in the sorry position it is in today under Democratic rule.
Can anyone remember Barack Obama speaking out against Democratic corruption? Trying to remember is a bridge to nowhere.
I look forward to campaigning with Sarah Palin when she comes to Illinois.
