Renee Ellmers and Clint Didier, Two Strong Conservatives We Can Get Behind

I almost feel like I need to apologize to our readers on this one, especially in regard to Renee Ellmers, who is running for Congress out of North Carolina’s second district.. On the suggestion of a fellow twitter-er (is that a word?) I started following Renee a while back. This is a solid conservative woman with the right ideas and the right agenda. She has a strong medical background as well as a strong business background. People with real world business experience are almost nonexistent in our current Congress, which is why we are in the mess we are in now.

Here’s Renee’s bio from her website:

Renee Ellmers was born in Ironwood in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula; when she was a child her family moved to Madison Heights, near Detroit, where her father took a job in the auto industry. He worked with General Motors until he retired.

After graduating from Madison High School, needing to work her way through college, Renee trained as a Medical Assistant. For the next eight years, working full and part-time jobs, she attended Oakland University, graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing.

A year later, working as a Surgical Intensive Care Nurse at Beaumont Hospital she met her husband, Brent, a graduate of the University Of Indiana School Of Medicine.

After their son was born, while visiting family in Cary, Renee and her husband decided to move to North Carolina. Today she works with her husband as Clinical Director of the Trinity Wound Care Center in Dunn.

Renee is active in community affairs, having served as Vice President of Community Development for the Chamber of Commerce and as President Elect of the Chamber for the coming year. She has also served on the Dunn Planning Board, the board of the Betsy Johnson Hospital Foundation and the Harnett County Nursing Home Committee.

She volunteers at Cape Fear Christian Academy where her son, Ben, is a student, and teaches Sunday school at Sacred Heart Catholic Church.

Last summer she and her husband attended a Town Hall meeting to hear Congressman Bob Etheridge speak on behalf of President Obama’s health care plan. Later, as a volunteer, she became an outspoken critic of government-run health care. She is now a candidate for Congress – opposing Congressman Etheridge – in North Carolina’s 2nd District.

As luck would have it, Renee is the one who is running against Bob Etheridge, who has become the focus of a lot of attention after he assaulted a college student on video. Renee has a statement on this assault here:







It seems that Bob Etheridge has a habit of this sort of violent behavior, as Brandon Leslie, a former resident of the district recalls here. I guess Bob Etheridge really does support ALL of Barack Obama’s agenda, including the part about "getting in their faces" and "punching back twice as hard"! Maybe after Renee sends this cat packing, he can get a job as an enforcer with Obama’s union thug buddies over at the SEIU!

Folks, I support Renee Ellmers for who she is and what she believes in, but knowing who her opponent is, it’s vital that we help her out and make sure she defeats Bob Etheridge. You can support Renee by going to her website: www.reneeforcongress.com following her on Facebook, and Twitter.

Currently Ellmers and Etheridge are neck and neck in this deal, so again, any help is good. Send a few dollars her way, volunteer to man phone banks, and if you live in North Carolina’s District 2, help get out the vote. Let’s send Renee Ellmers to Congress!

Maybe a certain Mama Grizzly will take notice and add Renee to her ever growing group of magnificently tough, self-sufficient bears!

Speaking of Sarah Palin, one of the big Papa Grizzlies she has endorsed is Clint Didier who is running for the United States Senate out of Washington state. Clint will be going up against the far left Marxist-democrat Patty Murray, who is an absolute disaster for the state, and the nation.

Football fans will recognize Clint as a former Washington Redskin, who played in three Super Bowls, but there is a lot more to the man. He’s a strong leader and a good businessman. Clint is a farmer, and owns an excavation company. He understands what hard work is all about. He’s been the football coach at Connell High School, and led that team to two state championships in nine years.

Sarah Palin is strongly backing Clint, and recently paid him a visit to up the ante. He still has to win the upcoming Republican primary. He has some tough competition. His main competition is someone who has run unsuccessfully for statewide office before, twice. Washington is a blue state, and even though the Marxist-democrats are going to lose big this fall, Republicans are still going to have to put their best foot forward. That best foot is Clint Didier.

I was prompted to write about Clint after an interesting and lively discussion, via Twitter, with Chris Widener a conservative leader, author, and columnist for Red County and contributor to SUCCESS Magazine. (Chris is a great guy, but more of the establishment type, in my opinion) It was during our pleasant, but vigorous, debate that Chris posted this awesome video of Clint Didier speaking at the Washington State Republican Convention:







Listening to Clint’s powerful speech, we are reminded of another one of our favorite leaders, and another Sarah Palin endorsee, Lt Col Allen West, who is running for Congress in Florida. Both of these men are powerful speakers and believe in Freedom, Liberty, and the Constitution.

Like Renee Ellmers, Clint can use any support you can give him. You can go to his website: www.clintdidier.org , check out his two Facebook pages here and here, and of course, follow Clint on Twitter here.

Let’s get on board and send these two great conservatives to Washington, D.C.!

Sarah Palin's Alaska Series Stays On Course Despite Attacks

As Josh Painter at Texas 4 Palin reported earlier this afternoon, Discovery Communications and TLC are moving forward with the "Sarah Palin’s Alaska" series without a hitch. Scott Collins at the Los Angeles Times reports that production of the eight episodes of the series will begin next month.

Extremist environmental groups, led by Defenders of Wildlife, waged a well-funded campaign against the series with multiple petitions and with ads at bus stops across from Discovery’s corporate headquarters. We don’t know whether their petition was delivered to the Discovery shareholders meeting as they planned. But we do know that our counter petition, with signatures and a list of sponsors, was overnighted on May 4 to Discovery CEO David Zaslav, with a request that it be presented at the shareholders meeting on May 5.

Our petition drive was launched on April 20, two weeks before the shareholders meeting, with limited resources but a lot of enthusiasm. The group of sponsors listed on the petition represent over 30 Sarah Palin support sites. This was the second Internetwide cooperative effort between Sarah Palin supporters. The first was a Grassroots Webathon spearheaded by Conservatives for Palin in which $115,585. was raised for Governor Palin’s legal defense fund. (See here, here, and here.)

Spearheaded by the authors of Sarah’s Web Brigade and SPIB, the current petition drive was a cooperative effort between many Sarah Palin supporters that enabled us to make a statement of support on behalf of Governor Palin’s new series. A Facebook Cause was also set up for the petition drive. Related efforts are also ongoing at the "Tell TLC/Discovery Communications YES to Sarah Palin" Facebook group, which we encourage you to join. The U. S. Sportsmen's Alliance (USSA) has also encouraged their members to write Discovery in support of Governor Palin's series.

Obviously, Discovery Communications knew they had a winner from the beginning when they landed the contract for Governor Palin’s Alaska series. But what kind of statement would it have been if we her supporters had remained silent in the face of the vicious attack against her series? We’re glad we took a stand and will continue to cheer Governor Palin and Discovery Channel on as this series becomes a reality. (And no, it is not a reality series - it is a documentary about Alaska and her people.) We are certain to see breathtaking scenes of Alaska’s awesome beauty and learn fascinating facts about what it is like to live there.

Thank all of you who have already signed the Show Your Support for Sarah Palin’s Alaska Series! petition. Those of you who have not yet done so, please sign the petition and join us in supporting Governor Palin and Discovery Channel in this endeavor. Contact information for Discovery Communications and TLC is posted on the petition site so you can make phone calls and send letters. Visit the other links posted on the petition site for additional information.

Let’s make Sarah Palin’s Alaska the most-watched series in TLC’s history! Do it for Sarah!

Sarah Palin: Tim Scott for South Carolina’s 1st District

Governor Palin endorsed conservative Republican Tim Scott for South Carolina's 1st Congressional District, today, Saturday, June 19, 2010 via Facebook post.

I’m very proud to add my support to Tim Scott’s campaign to represent South Carolina’s 1st congressional district. Tim has a remarkable success story. He grew up in poverty and was raised by a single-mom who struggled to provide. With help from a mentor and his brave mom, Tim learned to appreciate the value of hard work and American opportunity. He went on to become a business owner and has served in public office with integrity on the county and state level.

Tim is a pro-life, pro-2nd Amendment, pro-development, Commonsense Conservative who’s been endorsed by the Club for Growth because of his solid commitment to the principles of limited government and fiscal responsibility.

He will represent the Palmetto State with distinction in DC, so I encourage you to vote for Tim in his run-off election next Tuesday, June 22nd. Please visit Tim’s website at www.votetimscott.com and follow him on Facebook and Twitter.

My Phenomenal Trip to Alaska: Part 3- A Post by Conservative Girl with a Voice

Since my last post, I have gotten back into the swing of things and back to my normal routine. My trip to Alaska was a very memorable, and I cannot wait to go back to the “Last Frontier.” Before I begin this blog entry, I just want to send a HUGE shout-out to phenomenal common-sense Conservative Talk Radio Host and Blogger Extraordinaire Tammy Bruce. For those of you who know Tammy, you know she is a valuable, no-nonsense voice to the common sense conservative movement. Not only can you count on her to tell it like it is and always report the facts, but she is a great defender of Sarah Palin. I have had the honor of getting to know Tammy via Twitter. Yesterday, Tammy was nice enough to retweet my latest blog entry, and later I was added to her blog roll. For those of you who do not know what a blog roll is, it’s a list of websites that blogger finds to be interesting or worth reading. What an honor! I just wanted to thank Tammy for taking the time to read my blog and for seeing my blog as worthy of being listed on her excellent site. I will continue to work hard to spread the message of common-sense conservatism!!! Make sure to check out Tammy’s website and blog here and make sure to listen to Tammy's show on her website!!!

Now, on to Alaska…

I left off part two of my blog with a description of my time at Ericka Burke’s fun-filled wedding. There is so much of my trip that I want to share with you. The wedding wasn’t the only fun event we attended that weekend. On Sunday morning, we attended church at the Wasilla Bible Church, which is the home church of Sarah and her family. What a great service and awesome bunch of people. We had fun singing country-themed hymns and listening to the pastor’s sermon. It was a great service, and the people were so welcoming and friendly. Later that day, we headed over to have dinner with Tracey Porreca (my awesome friend and photographer who provided many of the photos I posted in my last entry) and her husband, Tony. What a dinner we had. Tony and Tracey spoiled us with a great home-cooked meal. We feasted on chicken and beef shish kabobs, home-made pasta salad and iced tea. If that was not enough, we were surprised with moose burgers too. Now, let me tell you. I am a big lover of all things protein, and I was excited to finally be able to try a meat that Alaskans get to enjoy daily. During the campaign, I became a bit envious of Sarah when she talked about moose burgers and moose chili, but I never thought I would one day get to try it. Well, folks, I got to try moose, and I must say, it was sooo good!!! Not only was the moose juicy, but it did not have the typical “game” after taste that so many forms of protein like venison so often have. I also loved the fact that it was so much healthier than standard beef. Tony cooked the burger to perfection, and I ate my burger up sans the bun just because I loved the flavor of the meat so much. Am I making you jealous yet? If so I’m sorry. If for anything, go to Alaska just for the moose- you will not be sorry!!!

As the beginning of my last week in Alaska began, I started to look forward to seeing my friend, Camille. As my regular readers know, Camille and I co-host a radio show entitled The People’s Post Live. She also has an awesome blog and is helping out Eddie Burke’s run for Alaska’s lieutenant governor. Camille and I have become great friends because of these areas we share, and I could not wait to get together with her in Alaska and catch up. Since we wanted to save some of our sightseeing for when Camille arrived, we decided to rent a canoe and paddle around Lake Lucille where we were staying at the Lake Lucille B&B. (Note to the wise: A stay at this bed and breakfast is a must. Not only is it located on a beautiful lake-front location, but the owner, Carol, is so sweet and she has decorated the B&B beautifully. She also cooked us the most delicious breakfasts everyday during our stay.) Since we were staying on the same lake where the Palin house is located, I knew I couldn’t pass up the chance to see the house in person. I also knew that I couldn't pass up the chance to see the jerk (Joe McGinniss or Joe McCreepy, as the Palin kids appropriately call him) if I got the chance.

As we paddled around on the lake, it made me think of my time spent every summer at my family’s cabin near Lake Tahoe. The beauty and serenity was a much-welcome change from the hustle and bustle of my hometown of San Diego. The birds were chirping, the ducks were bobbing their heads into and out of the water, and I even had the opportunity to see a muskrat swim to the side of the canoe as he made his way back to his home on the shoreline. We almost had the lake to ourselves, and I was reminded how lucky I was to be in Alaska. As we passed the houses, many of which had boat docks and planes equipped with floats so they could take off and land in the water, it was fun to see the many ceramic owls that were strategically placed on edge of each of the docks. As we got closer to the Palin house, I could see why Todd and Sarah picked Lake Lucille as the place in which to build their home. The peaceful lake was a spectacular, crystal blue and the people who occupy the houses on it were nice, normal everyday people. The Palin family is too. Sure, the family is a household name, but to their neighbors and the rest of Wasilla, they are just the Palins, and I know this is how they want to be recognized. Sarah’s house looked just like many of the other houses on the lake. Sure, it was newer than most and had construction of a garage addition going on next door, but if one did not know what the Palin house looked like, they would think this house were just an ordinary, beautiful house. Their house is gorgeous. My favorite part was the many floor to ceiling windows that overlooked the lake. As I paddled by, I could imagine how much fun Willow, Piper and Trig must have just looking outside those windows in the wintertime at the huge, white snowflakes and making snowmen and snow angels in front of the frozen lake they call their backyard.

After paddling past the Palin house, we came to McCreepy’s rented lair, and wouldn’t you know it, “shame on you, Joe” was sitting on his deck and looking right at us. I immediately thought to myself, “Hadn’t he seen canoers before?” Ha ha- Did we look that out of place?” After he saw us and watched us for a minute, he hurried inside of his home. This guy really is a piece of work. After all, you must really be a nut job when you leave your home to travel to Alaska to move next door to the former governor of Alaska to write a tell-all about her and her family. What a loser. I can name plenty of other ways this guy could be spending his time. How about traveling to flood-ravaged Tennessee or the oil-ridden gulf and helping with relief efforts? Has he ever thought of taking up a cooking class or better yet, a class on manners? As I looked at Joe’s house, I couldn’t help but notice the American and Alaskan flags hanging from the decks. The Alaska flag especially caught my eye. Doesn’t he know that the majority of Alaska thinks he is creepy for setting up camp to spy on the gov? It seemed to me that the flag was his way of saying, “I don’t care what you all think. Suck it, Alaska because I am here to stay.” I was tempted to take a picture of Joe sitting on his deck, but I withheld from doing so. Even though I easily could have, something inside of me said that I shouldn’t stoop to his level, so I substituted the picture for a snarky glare that I hope he saw. Hear that, Joe? It is scary to think this guy in such close proximity to the Palins. His house is literally a few hundred feet, if that, away from the Palin’s house. Thank God for Todd and that fence. It’s unfortunate, though, that the Palins can’t just be themselves and trust all of their neighbors. A house should be one’s castle- one’s place to feel safe and secure in. What this creep has done is taken this right away. Joe McGinniss has invaded the lives of the Palins, and he has the nerve to say he feels like he is being harassed and bothered? He has the nerve to call the good people of Wasilla, Alaska, Nazis? Shame on him!!! The good people of Wasilla did nothing, but welcome me with open arms into their city- whether it be at a gas station, coffee shop, restaurant or on a street corner.

In the end, I am glad I didn’t resort to McGinniss’ level. I may be a talkative girl, but at least my parents raised me to always value honesty and integrity. I hope you have been enjoying my Alaska adventures. In part four, I will talk about my time with Camille, lunch with the lieutenant governor, walking in the Colony day’s Parade in Palmer, and my time with Chuck and Sally Heath. Thanks again for taking the time to read my blog, and I will see you soon for the next installment of my Alaska shenanigans.

Americans Angry About Lying Media

from Patrick's World USA

How do you win the argument and convince people to elect conservatives again after the movement was on the ropes following the 2008 presidential election? When this blogger wrote the Fight for the Right page and Rebuilding the Republican Party, the answer was simple: convince them that the media lies. Once they realize the media lied to them, they will become angry and realize that we were right all along.

You'll never shove your candidate or your ideology down someone's throat because they will always protect their ego - unless they find out that they can blame someone else for causing them to be incorrect. "If I only knew" or "I didn't have that information" is the best opening line for any mea culpa. It is also the moment of revelation that angers a person when they realize that they have been misled. For many Obama voters with buyers remorse or Palin skeptics who were unsure of her, it's not their fault. They were lied to.

Right after the 2008 election was over and as Barack Obama was moving into the White House, I made it the staple of my diet to convince people that the media lies. We all went into the 2008 election with a "business as usual" approach. Many of us worked long hours to keep our heads above water during a period of economic contraction and crisis. While we expected the candidates to bash each other and put out lies and spin to further their campaigns, we never realized that the stuff that was spewing from the so called "objective media" was probably more effective propaganda than any ad the Obama campaign or George Soros released during that time. To make it worse, we busy Americans didn't have the time to research it. So voters took it at face value and believed that Barack Obama was the "messiah" and Sarah Palin was the dunce.

On the surface, the battle is with liberalism. But in reality, the nuts and bolts of the battle is with the media. Everything that Sarah Palin and Sean Hannity told us about Barack Obama and his agenda turned out to be true. In fact, Hannity will tell you he underestimated how radical Obama would be. The media slammed the right for the tactic of making an issue of Obama's associations with William Ayers, Reverend Wright and Father Pfleger. Yet, the tingles up their legs distracted them from scrutinizing the campaign tactics of the left like the DNC in Alaska which employed mostly unprofessional bloggers to slander Sarah Palin, the labor unions who were using members' union dues to campaign for Obama and ACORN whose workers who were lying and luring people into registering to vote as Democrats.

How was that possible? While ACORN was registering the "Donald Ducks" of the world as Democrats and handing out cigarettes to the bums they needed to pad their voter registration numbers, the media preferred to focus on Troopergate and Palin's clothes, which was a hullabaloo about nothing. While ACORN was committing financial and voter fraud, no one was there to investigate because they were all up in Alaska digging through Sarah Palin's garbage cans to see if they could find the pregnancy test she used for Trig or maybe the ashes of a burned book that had not been published yet.

What had become the Obama-mania media is the same media that honed the skills it would need to smear Palin by destroying George W. Bush before she hit the scene and which let John Edwards skirt by during the 2004 campaign. Had the media scrutinized Edwards the way they did Palin, you could bet every moose in Alaska his affair would have been exposed back then. This time, the media was AWOL, spending most of its time in Alaska and leaving the rest of the lower 48 in the hands of the Chris Matthews', Charlie Gibsons and Katie Courics of the world.

The Los Angeles Times gave Troopergate live play by play, but happened to neglect releasing a film of Obama at a dinner with Ayers where they were laughing at anti-Semetic jokes. Given the questions that are being asked about Obama's relationship with Israel today, that film is proving to be way more newsworthy than a family dispute between a governor and her brother-in-law. The Ayers film should have been shown.

Palin was massively criticized by the media for her "palling around with terrorists" comments, but no one had a problem with Obama sitting on boards with a man who admittedly blew up buildings. Nor did the media make any real connection about Obama's "57 states" gaffe with the 57 Islamic states. It took things like personal emails to each other to get this point out. Pamela Geller recently reported that Barack Obama told the Egyptian foreign minister that he is a muslim and "he would show the Moslem world what he would do with Israel." Another chicken the mainstream media missed has come home to roost.

We never fully recognized the scope of it during the election. I communicated then by email. I didn't have a blog. There was no Palin army presence online yet. I simply emailed my thoughts to friends and thought I was doing my part. When I realized that the media lied to us, I started my blog knowing that we needed a bigger presence and platform out there. It was with joy that I watched the web blossom with conservative and pro-Palin sites all through 2009. I knew people knew it. Today, the winds of change are blowing full force with Barack Obama now at 41% approval according to the latest Rasmussen poll.

Nothing the liberal media tells us now is believable. They can't save Barack Obama now.

And if it isn't a "I told you so" moment to beat all "I told you so" moments, than it is still a great moment. Brent Bozell III (the Founder and President of the Media Research Center), Andrew Breitbart, John Ziegler, Bernard Goldberg and Sarah Palin all worked tirelessly to hold the media accountable and to point out the blatant bias. The cat is out of the bag now. Bozell wrote "Americans have spoken and they are livid with the media." We have been lied to and we're pissed.

A new Rasmussen poll found an astonishing two thirds of American voters are at least somewhat angry at the media, including an entire one third who said they are ‘very angry.’ That’s disturbing but unfortunately, not surprising. The liberal media lost touch with the public and fair reporting long ago, and Americans are sick of their lavish praise for a President that is leading our country and economy into a disastrous state. The American people are abandoning the old media by the millions because they are simply fed up.

How does this play into the strategy of taking America back? It's the key component of it. The media was the wall between Americans and real information. Destroy the wall and take the castle.

Yes! I've Been Waiting For This: Gov. Palin Endorses Star Parker

By Adrienne Ross - www.motivationtruth.com


I've been waiting for this one: Today Governor Palin endorsed Star Parker for Congress.

Via Facebook, the Governor writes:

I’m proud to endorse Star Parker for California’s 37th Congressional District. Star has an incredible story and a passionate commitment to her community and our great nation. Rising up from being a single mom on welfare, Star worked hard to build a non-profit network that seeks to reduce poverty and create a brighter future for America by promoting free market solutions and personal responsibility. There is no doubt that she will bring a new level of enthusiasm and energy to Washington for American values, limited government, and economic growth. She’s a dynamic leader who is committed to building a more prosperous environment for the families in her district and ushering in positive change. Please join me in supporting Star and her message of hope, opportunity, and self-reliance. Visit her website at www.StarParkerforCongress.com and follow her on Facebook and Twitter.

Both Governor Palin and Star Parker are role models who inspire others to greatness. The Governor grew up hunting and fishing in the "Last Frontier." Star Parker had a more troubled upbringing and became a woman dependent on the government--until she saw the light. In spite of being from two different worlds, so to speak, today they both share an incredible love for America, a deep appreciation for hard work, and a commitment to common sense solutions. They're both willing to serve to see this nation return to both fiscal and personal responsibility. I wrote more about Star Parker in March here.

So how does Star Parker feel about Governor Palin's endorsement?

On Twitter, she wrote:

Sarah Palin endorses Star Parker for Congress! http://www.facebook.com/sarahpalin#!/notes/sarah-palin/the-nature-of/399842678434

I'm proud to receive Sarah Palin's endorsement today.

I, too, am excited about this particular endorsement. Star deserves it, and I look forward to Governor Palin helping send her to Washington.

Palin: The Nature of Those Tough, Self-Sufficient Bears

Governor Palin endorsed three mama grizzlies for Congress this day, June 17, 2010, via Facebook post:

Last summer I stood on the grassy bank of an Alaskan waterway that was teeming with salmon to watch part of Alaska’s brown bear population forage, fight, feed, and fend off enemies to survive. I joined Fish and Game biologists to observe 42 of these majestic wild animals all within eyesight, all at once. Even though I’ve lived all my life in the “Last Frontier,” I still find days like that absolutely fascinating! And I swear the hardest workers on the water were those “mama bears.”

Obviously not waiting for another bear to do the work for them, the mama bears not only foraged for themselves to prepare for winter, but they worked twice as hard to slay salmon for their cubs, too, making sure the future of the population was ready for the season ahead. She would instinctively rear up on hind legs when her cubs were threatened – you don’t mess with her cubs. And most importantly, just as the well known modern proverb expresses, she didn’t just hand over a free fish for the day – she taught young ones how to fish for a lifetime. (There’s no shortage of life lessons learned while scanning our great outdoors!)

Now, scanning the political landscape, here’s a new “Mama Grizzlies” field report! There are great guys running for office all over the place, but I hope you will join me in supporting three more bold Commonsense Conservative women who are willing to put it all the line to get our country back on track: Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Star Parker, and Mary Fallin.

Cathy McMorris Rodgers

Cathy McMorris Rodgers is running for reelection to serve in Congress. She knows the value of hard work. She grew up as a farmer’s daughter and was the first in her family to attend and graduate from college. Her roots in eastern Washington go back generations. Cathy is a pro-family, pro-business fiscal conservative who has an honest, direct plan for action in Congress, which she calls her “Patriot Pledge.” It’s a 10-point agenda focused on fiscal health, tax reform, and other common sense solutions. Further, I have deep respect for Cathy’s strong voice for families who are touched by those with special needs. She formed the Congressional Down Syndrome Caucus which promotes research, education, and treatment to help improve the quality of life for those with Down syndrome and other challenges. Cathy and I share a personal bond as proud moms who’ve both been blessed with sweet sons born with extra chromosomes. Perhaps it’s because we learn so much from these children and can see how they make the world a better place that I am confident that Cathy’s respect for life, and her commitment to protecting America’s Constitution, truly benefits all Americans. We need her in Congress, so please visit her website at www.cathyforcongress.com, follow her on Facebook and Twitter, and please support her campaign.

Star Parker

I’m proud to endorse Star Parker for California’s 37th Congressional District. Star has an incredible story and a passionate commitment to her community and our great nation. Rising up from being a single mom on welfare, Star worked hard to build a non-profit network that seeks to reduce poverty and create a brighter future for America by promoting free market solutions and personal responsibility. There is no doubt that she will bring a new level of enthusiasm and energy to Washington for American values, limited government, and economic growth. She’s a dynamic leader who is committed to building a more prosperous environment for the families in her district and ushering in positive change. Please join me in supporting Star and her message of hope, opportunity, and self-reliance. Visit her website at www.StarParkerforCongress.com and follow her on Facebook and Twitter.

Mary Fallin

Mary Fallin is another strong, smart conservative who I am proud to support. Mary is running for Governor of Oklahoma, and the Sooner State is fortunate to have her offer to serve in this new capacity. Mary’s another fiscal conservative with policy experience, political backbone, and real world knowledge that will serve the entire state well as she proves her mettle as Oklahoma’s next CEO. Her personal, professional, and political background gives her a healthy perspective on the challenges facing so many of our families and businesses. Mary truly understands public service, and she served her state with distinction in Congress and as the first Republican and first female lieutenant governor in Oklahoma history. Sharing the aforementioned foundational values of Cathy and Star and so many other Americans, Mary also understands the complexities of our domestic energy policy and has been a consistent voice for energy independence. Please visit Mary’s website at www.maryfallin.org and follow her on Facebook and Twitter.

I heartily endorse these liberty-loving “Mama Grizzlies.” They’ll do more than just growl about our challenges because they know how to work hard and protect America’s future by ushering a new era of prosperity and security. How? By proving their selfless service, common sense, and respect for the will of the people.

- Sarah Palin
