Go Get 'Em, Sarah: A Post by Conservative Girl with a Voice

Sarah did it again Sunday!!! She stood tall and spoke strongly and clearly-no rambling, msm-about everything from the biased media to the problems with big government. As she spoke from the heart-something she does better than any politician I have ever heard since Ronald Reagan, I heard that fighting spirit that her supporters have come to know and love. Her final speech as governor definitely illustrated the passion and love she had as governor of the great state of Alaska, yet also illustrated her intended desire to spread the common sense message Americans, like myself, are so eager to hear.



There were many parts of the speech that I loved. In true maverick fashion, Sarah gave the media a piece of her mind, which as a former journalism student captivated my heart. All my regular readers now how I feel about what the media have become, and I commend the gov for letting the media have it so to speak. As a former journalist, she studied the same thing in school that I did, and the so-called media of today have become unrecognizable. As Sarah mentioned in her farewell speech, the media of today find it totally acceptable to report false stories and take unfair shots at children of political candidates, which not surprisingly never includes the children of President Obama. Unfortunately these issues have become so commonplace that it is hard to identify the truth anymore. For more on media bias, scroll down and read my post entitled "Slime Journalism."



A highlight from her farewell speech came when Sarah told the crowd that she was going to use her first-amendment right. This spoke volumes to me because this is what America is all about, but sometimes you wouldn't even know it in the age of Obama. In Obama's world, if someone chooses to speak out against him or any of his policies, it is as if they are committing treason. Whatever happened to the America in which speaking out was a right, not a punishment? Sarah hit the nail on the head with her assessment regarding the first-amendment; it's about time someone reminds us that we have the right to stand up and hold our politicians and government officials accountable for they work for US!


Sarah's words on the government in general were also very inspiring and right on target. We live in an age in which the government is taking over our lives. Simple daily acts are becoming harder to achieve because the government has decided that it knows how to run our lives better than we do. I don't know about you, but I sure as hell don't want the same government that has virtually bankrupted our children's futures in charge of my healthcare decisions. The common phrase, "government's the problem, not the solution" could not be more true. Sarah gets it when it comes to government. Like us, she KNOWS a smaller government is a more efficient government. With spending out of control, the government keeps assuming it knows best when WE the people REALLY know what is best for us and our families. This is what is so refreshing about Sarah- she understands; she gets it. Why can't the msm and liberal haters see this? The answer is easy:They are too blinded to what is really going on. Instead of reporting the facts about the threat of big goverment, they continue to sugarcoat the truth. Luckily we have Sarah to give us the straight talk we so desperately crave! Sarah is our voice in these hard times, and is not afraid to give us the facts. Thank God! It's about time someone cares for average Americans. This is a woman who loves her country and actually takes the time to thank our military men and women instead of apologizing for their actions on the battlefield. I'm sick and tired of the apologies, and I have a feeling Sarah is too. It's about time someone took a stand. As the days go by, she is going to be our voice, and I couldn't be more thrilled and excited to have her as the voice of reason. So rock on, Sarah, and continue to speak out because we ARE listening!!!!
