Make Sure to Catch Joe Miller on Camille and My Radio Show TONIGHT!!! A Post by Conservative Girl with a Voice



This is a reminder that Camille and my radio show returns tonight, Thursday, October 28, at 7pacific/10eastern. After a very exciting and highly-listened-to show a couple weeks ago when Bristol Palin was a guest, Camille and I are very excited to announce that Senate Candidate Joe Miller will be joining us to discuss his campaign. Both Camille and I have had the great honor of meeting Joe when we visited Alaska this past summer. He is great friend of Eddie Burke, a friend of our show, The People's Post.

Camille and I will also be joined by New York Times Best-Selling Author Stephen Mansfield, who is the co-author of the popular book The Faith and Values of Sarah Palin. You may remember seeing him on Sean Hannity's nightly program on the Fox News Channel recently discussing the book.

Finally, we will be joined by Erica Holloway, the spokesperson from the Speaker Education Project. This is a great organization that helps to educate individuals about the role of Speaker of the House.

Make sure to listen in, and spread the word!!! Remember, the show begins tonight at 7p.m. pacific/10p.m. eastern!!! Listen online here: blogtalkradio.com/thepeoplespost-live.

Sorry, Ms. Clift, but You Don't Speak for this Grizzly Girl!!! A Post by Conservative Girl with a Voice



The liberal mainstream media continue their quest to discredit Sarah Palin and her supporters, with so-called journalist Eleanor Clift becoming the latest journalist to take the plunge. Just this week, Clift wrote a piece for Politics Daily entitled The 'Palin Effect': Not all Young Republican Women are Buying it. In the piece, Clift goes to great lengths to argue that many young, Republican women do not view Sarah as a role model for their generation. As a young, Conservative Republican woman myself, I had to laugh at this notion. While it is no secret that Sarah Palin has a fair share of those who dislike her and her politics, I find it hard to believe that Clift knows anything about the powerful impact Sarah has had on so many young women of my generation. Before Sarah entered the forefront, I did not care too much about politics as a whole. While I always have made it a point to vote and keep up to date on the happenings going on in the country, I did not have an activist streak in me. Sarah changed all of this for me. When she became the VP nominee, I, along with the rest of America, was introduced to a woman who seemed to have it all: a great career, an awesome husband and family and a deep faith- all while leading a normal life in the last frontier. She reminded me of a modern-day Annie Oakley or Margaret Thatcher.

While Clift argues that a large number of young, Republican women do not feel inspired by Sarah, I find it odd that she is only able to cite one young woman who feels this way. Senior Leanna Cannafax, President of the Samford Young Republican's Club, had this to say when asked about Sarah:

It's hard for me to relate to her even though she's Republican and conservative. As a young woman, I have to be open-minded to things I don't agree with, and I feel she doesn't even listen.

Hmmm, Leanna, I have to wonder if you are listening to a word Sarah says. After all, while governor of Alaska, Sarah was one of the few Republican governors who was widely known for reaching out across the aisle, listening to Democrats and Republicans. She was never a quote on quote "rubber stamp" to any set political party. I have to wonder if Leanna knows what Conservatives even stand for. While is a good thing to be open minded and unbiased, it is also important to stick to your convictions and fight for what you believe in. This is exactly what Sarah does day in and day out.

Perhaps the most ridiculous part of the article is Clift's sad excuse for a conclusion:

I don't pretend to have taken a scientific poll, but getting outside the Beltway and inside a small Southern campus made me wonder if Palin's biggest constituency is the media, not voters, and whether she makes a better story than she does role model.

So Clift's trip outside the Beltway suddenly classifies her as a scientist??? If you ask me, she needs to do her research and gather a few more sources before she even begins to attempt to try to understand young, Republican women of my generation. Maybe if she actually did her homework, she would she why women like myself look up to Sarah with such high regard. It's called fact checking- plain and simple. Ever heard of it, Ms. Clift???

While Clift was only able to quote a single source for her biased piece, I can name a large number of young women who, like me, connect with Sarah and view her as a role model for our generation. For me, Sarah is a modern-day feminist. She is a fierce force to reckon with, and those who try to bring her down usually fail. As a great wife and mom, Sarah is able to balance motherhood with her career, all doing so while wearing a phenomenal pair of, excuse my language, "kick-ass heels." Thank you Sarah, for being the mama grizzly you are, and for teaching this grizzly girl and thousands like me how important it is to stand up and speak out on behalf of the commonsense conservative movement. I'm not the only grizzly girl who feels this way. In closing, I leave you with some great insight from a couple of fellow grizzly girls:

For me, Sarah Palin embodies everything I love about conservatism and feminism. She is a self-made woman, works arduously for the sake of her family and her country, she does not shy away from her principles, she scares the establishment of both parties, she is unafraid of pointing out the fallacies of the liberal agenda, and always has a smile on her face when doing so.

Her message inspires women of all stripes to participate in politics and not relent. Mama and sister grizzlies (as well as those papa bears) are uniting for the common cause of returning our country to the common sense conservatism we crave and need. She is one of the many reasons I love to engage in political discourse on my blog. Thank you to the Mama Grizzly herself for being one of the leaders of this new movement of real change!

-Jennifer of www.cubachi.com

Governor Palin is inspiring to many women - myself included - in ways that transcend her political views. One can agree with her, or not, in that regard. But, really, her appeal lies in the courage and perseverance she shows in the face of very challenging situations. There's something comforting about seeing a woman 'just like me' take all of the experiences of life in stride and continue making her own way forward. I think that's a character trait any honest person should be able to appreciate.
-Camille Friend of The Design Conservative


NOTE: I will be a guest on 700 KBYR tomorrow and interviewed by Eddie Burke. The show runs from 5-6pdt/8-9edt. Outside Alaska? Listen online at www.kbyr.com.

The following guests are scheduled to appear:

UPDATE: A Recent Encounter with Sarah Palin AND Radio Show TONIGHT: A Post by Conservative Girl with a Voice




UPDATE: Make sure to catch Camille Friend and my radio show TONIGHT (Thursday) at 6p.m.PST/9p.m.EST. Listen online at blogtalkradio.com/join-team-sarah. If you want to call in with a question, the number to call is (347) 215-6125. There will also be a chat room in which you can get involved.

Make sure to tune because at the opening of the show, Camille and I will be making a HUGE announcement that we are so excited to finally be sharing with you. We have a great lineup of guests scheduled. Camille and I will be talking with Brad, who attended the Glenn Beck/ Sarah Palin event in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We will also chat with Martha Cano, the previous host of Join Team Sarah Radio. While we are chatting with Martha, Mark Ang, who developed the PAC Grand New Party, will join us. Alaska State House Candidate Jason Cline will also be joining us to talk health care.

It is no secret that a large amount of liberals cannot stand Sarah Palin. While I can understand the disdain they have for her in terms of what she believes politically (I have the same disdain for President Obama for the policies he is trying to push through- policies that would change the America I know and love forever), I cannot understand the vile, personal cheap shots. When the attacks on Sarah and her family turn personal, it angers me to all end. The majority of the individuals who claim to hate Sarah have never even met her. If they met the Sarah whom I was so privileged to meet this past December, they would see an amazing woman who is not only kind and generous, but down-to-earth as well. As a conservative Republican, I could tell liberal democrats this all day long, and they would continue to call me a liar and tell me I was out of my mind. Well, if they don't want to listen to me, perhaps they would listen to Ilana Angel, a self-described Democrat who met Sarah the first week of March while Sarah was in Los Angeles. Like me, Ilana is a California blogger who runs the blog Keeping the Faith for the Jewish Journal. While my blog has a political tone, Ilana blogs about pop culture and her journey as a single woman, in her 40s, to find love, which illustrates how great and wide ranging the blogosphere can be. I recently spoke to Ilana on the phone, and I can tell you firsthand that she is an amazing woman with an amazing life story, and her account of meeting Sarah is one everyone NEEDS to read and hear.

I am pleased to announce that Ilana will be our final guest TONIGHT (Thursday) on Camille Friend and my radio show. Camille and I are so excited for the opportunity to have a great chat with a fellow strong woman. Ilana, Camille and I will be talking about a variety of non-political stuff. I cannot wait to hear about her encounter with Sarah and her blog as well.

Here is a segment from Ilana's post about her chance encounter with Sarah:


Yesterday a friend and I had a meeting together in the valley. I arrived before he did, so I decided to sit outside and wait since it was such a beautiful day. As I sat in the sun, I saw a women chatting with a gentleman a few feet away. I thought I recognized her, but was not sure.

I saw my friend approaching, so I got up and walked towards him. As I passed the woman, I got a good look and realized I was looking at Sarah Palin. I hugged my friend and we turned to walk into the building. I then stopped, turned around, and walked back towards her.

Let me begin by saying that Sarah Palin is beautiful. Not just pretty, but beautiful. She has great hair, fabulous teeth, magnificent skin, and a killer body. She is tiny, feminine, and stunning. She is very approachable, so I decided to introduce myself, and say hello.

She was standing there with Mark Burnett, who I think is fabulous. We all know I am a reality television junky, and think he is King, but I was so blown away by how much fun she was to talk to, that I barely said hello to a man who I think totally rocks. Note to self for next time, never give up an opportunity to talk to Mark Burnett.

To clarify, I don’t agree with her politics. We are polar opposite in terms of our political, and religious views. That said, her politics and beliefs have nothing to do with my blog. This is America and she can believe what she wants, as can everyone else, myself included. I approached her because I like her as a woman. We are both ballsy ladies, and mothers.

I introduced myself and told her...

AMAZING Guests Scheduled for Tomorrow Night's Radio Show!!! A Post by Conservative Girl with a Voice


Camille Friend, and I have a great group of guests lined up for Thursday Night's show (3/4/2010). Besides having a ton of fun and informing you of what's going on in our country, we will be talking to a variety of guests who define what makes America the great country it is.

First up is Anita MonCrief. Many of you may be familiar with Anita. As a former employee of ACORN and ACORN whistle blower, she witnessed firsthand the fraud that occurred in this organization, and she decided to take a stand and do something about it. She also addressed the CPAC Convention, and she is going to tell us all about it. It should be great interview.

After Anita, we will be talking to friend of the show and Alaska State House Candidate Jason Cline about his experience at CPAC. You may remember that Jason was supposed to talk about his experience on last week's show, but because of technical problems, he did not have a chance too. We will also get an update on what's happening with Jason's campaign.

Finally, Camille and I will be joined by #1 Alaska Talk Radio Host Eddie Burke to interview Tito Munoz. You may remember him as "Tito the Builder" of the 2008 Presidential Campaign. It will be great to hear all about Tito's campaign experience, how it felt to be mentioned in Sarah Palin's Book Going Rogue , and also about what he has been up to since the election.

I hope you all tune into the show tomorrow (Thursday) night. The show begins at 6p.m.PST/9p.m.EST. Listen online at www.blogtalkradio.com/join-team-sarah. If you want to call in with a question, the number to call is 1(347)215-6125. There will also be a chat room available that the fabulous Martha Cano will be moderating.

Join Me on My Radio Show this THURSDAY Night! A Post by Conservative Girl with a Voice


Many of you may already be aware of the big news that I am about to share with all of you. I joined Team Sarah shortly after Sarah was announced John McCain's running mate. Team Sarah is a great community in which to interact with fellow Sarah supporters. When I joined Team Sarah, I had no idea of how politically involved I would become in the months to follow. As the San Diego Regional Organizer for the 2012 Draft Sarah Committee, I have had a blast educating others around my community and online about Sarah and her message of common sense conservatism. I have gotten to know so many wonderful people because of Team Sarah and 2012 Draft Sarah. I have also gotten to know so many amazing Alaskans who have become great friends. Sarah is blessed to live in a state with so many great salt-of-the-earth people.

Many of you know that Team Sarah has an weekly online radio show entitled Join Team Sarah on Blog Talk Radio. The creator of the show, Martha Cano, recently asked me if I would like to host a show once a month. I told her that I would be honored to be a host and thanked her for believing in me. I had a blast hosting the show a couple weeks ago, and I will be hosting the show tomorrow night. Just this week, Martha asked me if I would like to be the new main host for the show, and I accepted. I am honored that she has chosen to put this show in my hands, and I hope I can make her and all of you proud. The show is going to be going through a re-vamping of sorts, and I believe this fresh start will be a good thing. Like Sarah, I have an independent streak, and I always tend to take my own path, listening to God along the way. I hope you will all join me on what should be an exciting journey. I am honored to have Camille Friend who runs the blog The Design Conservative on board as my co-host. Camille is a great woman who supports Sarah and is a great conservative. You may heard her on Pro-Sarah Radio where she is a frequent guest. Camille and I want this show to become a platform of support for Sarah. We also want this show to be a place where conservatives and independents alike can flock to to get the latest political news. I am excited that hosting this radio show will give me the opportunity to put my college degrees in Journalism and English to work spreading the word about how great Sarah is!!!

I am pleased to announce that I have some great guests lined up for tomorrow night's show. First up is Eddie Burke, the #1 Alaska Talk Radio Host. (Eddie's show airs M-F from 5-7 PST on 700 KBYR. Listen online at www.kbyr.com.) The cool thing about this is that Eddie is going to be coming to be interviewed live during his show. Many of you may remember that Eddie was nice enough to do this last month on the show I hosted. This is great format because his listeners and my listeners were able to hear the interview. Eddie is a great friend of mine, Sarah Palin and her awesome family. Camille and I cannot wait to ask him all about the Iron Dog and get the "scoop." We will also be asking him about his recent op-ed.

Second on the lineup is Sheya who runs Palin TV and is a contributor for Conservatives for Palin. Sheya is going to be telling us all about Palin TV. We will also be talking about Sarah.

Finally, we will be chatting with Jason Cline, who is running for the Alaska State House in Anchorage. Like Camille and myself, Jason is a young Republican who is getting actively involved in the political process. You may remember Jason because he was on the show last month. Jason just got back from attending CPAC, so he is going to come on to tell us all about his amazing experience. Camille and I will also get an update on how his campaign is moving along. I am also pleased to announce that all-star blogger and all-around-cool dude Robert Stacey McCain who runs the blog The Other McCain will be joining us as well. Robert has been attending CPAC for years, and Camille and I cannot wait to hear about his experience.

I hope you all will tune into the show tomorrow night (Thursday) at 5p.m. AK standard time, 6p.m. PST, 8p.m. CST and 9p.m. EST. Visit www.blogtalkradio.com/join-team-sarah to listen to the show. Wanna ask a guest a question? Call 1(347)215-6125. If you don't want to call in, but still want to participate, there will be a chat room available.

Thanks so much for listening, and I hope you enjoy the show!!!
