Sarah Palin’s Op-Ed: Copenhagen’s Political Science: Copenhagen Climate Change

| Posted in sarah palin 2012 |

Below you will find the Op-Ed piece written by Sarah Palin and found in the Washington Post. Sarah Palin, as usual, hits the nail on the head with this one.

With the publication of damaging e-mails from a climate research center in Britain, the radical environmental movement appears to face a tipping point. The revelation of appalling actions by so-called climate change experts allows the American public to finally understand the concerns so many of us have articulated on this issue.

“Climate-gate,” as the e-mails and other documents from the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia have become known, exposes a highly politicized scientific circle — the same circle whose work underlies efforts at the Copenhagen climate change conference. The agenda-driven policies being pushed in Copenhagen won’t change the weather, but they would change our economy for the worse.

The e-mails reveal that leading climate “experts” deliberately destroyed records, manipulated data to “hide the decline” in global temperatures, and tried to silence their critics by preventing them from publishing in peer-reviewed journals. What’s more, the documents show that there was no real consensus even within the CRU crowd. Some scientists had strong doubts about the accuracy of estimates of temperatures from centuries ago, estimates used to back claims that more recent temperatures are rising at an alarming rate.

This scandal obviously calls into question the proposals being pushed in Copenhagen. I’ve always believed that policy should be based on sound science, not politics. As governor of Alaska, I took a stand against politicized science when I sued the federal government over its decision to list the polar bear as an endangered species despite the fact that the polar bear population had more than doubled. I got clobbered for my actions by radical environmentalists nationwide, but I stood by my view that adding a healthy species to the endangered list under the guise of “climate change impacts” was an abuse of the Endangered Species Act. This would have irreversibly hurt both Alaska’s economy and the nation’s, while also reducing opportunities for responsible development.

Our representatives in Copenhagen should remember that good environmental policymaking is about weighing real-world costs and benefits — not pursuing a political agenda. That’s not to say I deny the reality of some changes in climate — far from it. I saw the impact of changing weather patterns firsthand while serving as governor of our only Arctic state. I was one of the first governors to create a subcabinet to deal specifically with the issue and to recommend common-sense policies to respond to the coastal erosion, thawing permafrost and retreating sea ice that affect Alaska’s communities and infrastructure.

But while we recognize the occurrence of these natural, cyclical environmental trends, we can’t say with assurance that man’s activities cause weather changes. We can say, however, that any potential benefits of proposed emissions reduction policies are far outweighed by their economic costs. And those costs are real. Unlike the proposals China and India offered prior to Copenhagen — which actually allow them to increase their emissions — President Obama’s proposal calls for serious cuts in our own long-term carbon emissions. Meeting such targets would require Congress to pass its cap-and-tax plans, which will result in job losses and higher energy costs (as Obama admitted during the campaign). That’s not exactly what most Americans are hoping for these days. And as public opposition continues to stall Congress’s cap-and-tax legislation, Environmental Protection Agency bureaucrats plan to regulate carbon emissions themselves, doing an end run around the American people.

In fact, we’re not the only nation whose people are questioning climate change schemes. In the European Union, energy prices skyrocketed after it began a cap-and-tax program. Meanwhile, Australia’s Parliament recently defeated a cap-and-tax bill. Surely other nations will follow suit, particularly as the climate e-mail scandal continues to unfold.

In his inaugural address, President Obama declared his intention to “restore science to its rightful place.” But instead of staying home from Copenhagen and sending a message that the United States will not be a party to fraudulent scientific practices, the president has upped the ante. He plans to fly in at the climax of the conference in hopes of sealing a “deal.” Whatever deal he gets, it will be no deal for the American people. What Obama really hopes to bring home from Copenhagen is more pressure to pass the Democrats’ cap-and-tax proposal. This is a political move. The last thing America needs is misguided legislation that will raise taxes and cost jobs — particularly when the push for such legislation rests on agenda-driven science.

Without trustworthy science and with so much at stake, Americans should be wary about what comes out of this politicized conference. The president should boycott Copenhagen.

Sarah Palin Resigns as Governor of Alaska, Will She Run for President in 2012?

| Posted in sarah palin 2012 |

Sarah Palin has announced today, July 3, 2009 that she is resigning as Governor of Alaska effective July 26, 2009. She is turning the Governorship over to Lt. Governor Sean Parnell.

This fuels a lot of speculation as to WHY she has chosen to resign as Governor. My hopes are that she is resigning so that she can prepare to run for the nomination as Presidential candidate for the Republican party. I hope AND pray that this will happen. We need a good Christian person who loves her country and who follows God’s laws as President of our country. By the time 2012 comes America will be in the worst shape you’ve ever seen. We are quickly heading down the road to socialism and the road to a Dictatorship if Dictator Obama has anything to do with it.

Governor Palin has been plagued with needless ethics inquiries of which ALL of them have been unfounded. We DO know this, the liberal left is scared to death of Sarah Palin. Why else would she still be the target of such ugliness 8 months AFTER the election is over? The left fears Sarah Palin, plain and simple. They will do anything to damage her reputation. They can’t find any REAL skeletons in her closet, so they keep making up FAKE skeletons to try and ruin her chances to run for President in 2012.

I feel that the Lord is on Sarah Palin’s side in this and she WILL be victorious in 2012. Sarah Palin said, “Once I decided not to run for re-election, I also felt that to embrace the conventional lame duck status in this particular climate would just be another dose of politics as usual, something I campaigned against and will always oppose,” in a statement released by her office.

Sarah Palin went on to say, “It is my duty to always protect our great state. With that in mind, my family and I determined that it is best to make a difference this summer, and I am willing to change things, so that this administration, with its positive agenda, its accomplishments, and its successful road to an incredible future, can continue without interruption and with great administrative and legislative success.”

Sarah Palin’s term would have ended in 2012. We don’t know her plans yet, as she has not let us in on them, but we hope and pray that whatever she does decide, that God Speed.

If the Lord is willing, I pray that Sarah Palin will run for President in 2012 and be victorious! Amen!

N.O.W. Actually Criticized David Letterman For Jokes Against Sarah Palin’s Daughter!

| Posted in sarah palin 2012 |

Will miracles never cease?? N.O.W. (National Organization of Women) actually and FINALLY said something about David Letterman’s attack on Sarah Palin’s 14 year old daughter, Willow Palin.

It is extremely unusual for N.O.W. to come to the aid of any Republican and/or conservative female. They normally only come to the aid of liberal pro-choice type women. So, yay, we give a shout out to N.O.W. for speaking out against David Letterman on this issue.

Below is the story by the Associated Press:

NEW YORK (AP) — The National Organization for Women has placed David Letterman in its “media hall of shame” for a joke about Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s daughter.

Earlier this week, Lettermen joked that Palin’s daughter got “knocked up” by Yankee third baseman Alex Rodriguez during the Palins’ recent trip to New York.

Letterman has said his joke was about Palin’s 18-year-old daughter, who is an unwed mother. But Palin attended the Yankee game with 14-year-old daughter Willow.

Palin told NBC’s “Today” show Friday morning that Letterman owes an apology to young women across the country for the joke.

And the president of NOW, Kim Gandy, said, “Nobody should be making jokes about the sexual activities of teenagers.”

Letterman said on his show Wednesday that he would “never, ever make jokes about raping or having sex of any description with a 14-year-old girl.”

He admits, though, that he was guilty of poor taste.

David Letterman On Sarah Palin and Her Daughter Willow, Disgusting and Uncalled For Rape Jokes!

| Posted in sarah palin 2012 |

0

David Letterman has made Sarah Palin the brunt of his foolish and NOT SO FUNNY jokes for quite awhile now. He is a has been with horrible writers who can’t find anything to really make fun of so these jokes just keep on coming.

David Letterman recently made a lot of Sarah Palin jokes after her recent trip to New York. One of the ignorant jokes Letterman made had to do with Sarah Palin’s 14 year old daughter who attended a Yankees game in New York with her parents. Letterman spent about eight minutes “defending” himself, with a so-called apology that was just another joke fest with a sick laugh track. He also invited Sarah Palin to come on his show. Letterman can hold his breath for Sarah Palin to come on, why should she help his ratings anyway??

The Letterman vs Palin debacle began when David Letterman made Sarah Palin the centerpiece of his Top 10 List Monday night, after she made a trip to New York City. Letterman’s list was a hodgepodge of Sarah Palin jokes and slams against her, her politics, and her family.

The one that got the Palins riled up this time was a joke Letterman made about Willow Palin (only 14 years old) getting “knocked up” by Alex Rodriguez during the trip. In response, Sarah Palin went on Facebook to talk about Letterman making jokes about rape.

Governor Palin said it was “disgusting” for a 62-year-old to make comments about raping a 14-year-old. Letterman claims he was talking about Bristol Palin who is 18 years old, but it was Willow who attended the Yankees game. It really does not matter because either way the jokes were disgusting to say about anyone, whether 14 or 18.

Nevertheless, Letterman spent much of the top of Wednesday night’s show explaining himself, and stopping just short of apologizing for it. Letterman’s guest Kathy Griffin had no qualms, filling the Palin insult quota for the night. Kathy Griffin by the way is a disgusting filthy mouthed woman who will do or say anything to make a buck!

David Letterman and Sarah Palin would naturally disagree about some things if they ever got together, given their different political stances. Sarah Palin is a good and decent conservative Christian woman while David Letterman is the typical Hollywood liberal who has very few morals. Sarah Palin has faced other attacks from the late night comedic circuit, although her current objection is over Letterman’s jokes about her daughter.

Palin’s objection to that overshadowed the other big attack of Monday night, when Letterman said she had a “slutty flight-attendant look.” For that, Letterman had no regrets.

My opinion is that the left is fearful of Sarah Palin kicking Barry O’s behind in the 2012 Presidential election and they are afraid of her. They hope by constantly smearing her and her family that she will run and hide. But they don’t know OUR Sarah Palin, she is a brave and intelligent woman. She won’t run and hide!

Sarah Palin for President in 2012!

Sarah Palin to Attend GOP Fundraiser with Newt Gingrich Tonight! Go Sarah!!

| Posted in sarah palin 2012 |

According to the Washington Post article, Sarah Palin WILL be attending the GOP fundraiser after all. That is great news.

See the Washington Post article below in it’s entirety.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is planning to attend the joint House-Senate fundraising dinner tonight, according to sources familiar with her schedule, ending a back and forth between the vice presidential nominee and the two congressional campaign committees that goes back for months.

Palin was initially invited to keynote tonight’s gathering, which will benefit the National Republican Congressional Committee and the National Republican Senatorial Committee, as the keynote speaker.

Depending on whom you believe, Palin either accepted and then reneged or never accepted in the first place. Either way, the two congressional committees moved on — inviting former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (Ga.) to stand in for Palin.

Then came word — via Politico’s Jonathan Martin — that Palin had been re-invited to the event and asked to speak only to have that invite reneged when concerns were raised that she would overshadow Gingrich.

Palin’s appearance is one of several stops she will make while in the nation’s capital. “In DC, will meet w AK’s Washington office (John Katz) re: natural gas pipeline & readying AK for good movement on huge project for us & U.S.’s,” Palin tweeted minutes ago.

She has also taped an interview with Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity that is set to run this evening. In excerpts obtained by the Drudge Report Palin says “we told ya so” when asked about the direction President Obama has taken the nation, adding: “If Americans aren’t paying attention, unfortunately our country could evolve into something that we do not even recognize.”

George Soros, The Bully Behind The Sarah Palin Wardrobe Flap

| Posted in Sarah Palin News Articles, sarah palin 2012 |

George Soros

George Soros

Below, you will read a story that I found online at Digital Journal.

George Soros is a leftist Marxist criminal. He also loves President Barack Obama and backed him. No surprise there.

The left wing media was so biased against Sarah Palin from the moment she was announced as John McCain’s pick for Vice President.

Sarah Palin’s children were attacked, she was attacked, she was lied about, and she was generally treated like trash. She did nothing to deserve any of that.

The feminist organizations like NOW never came to her defense, even though Sarah Palin is a female who has managed to make it in the politics of a mans world.

Sarah Palin was the FIRST female to become a Governor of Alaska and she was also the FIRST female to become a Republican Party nominee for Vice President. But was she hailed as a female who has made history? NO! Instead she was bullied, made fun of, and even had her little baby, Trigg, made fun of. Trigg has Down’s Syndrome. How cruel and pathetic is it that left wing liberals would make fun of a baby that was born with Down’s Syndrome???

See the story below: (I was NOT shocked, not at all!)

I’m shocked, shocked I tell you!

Remember the flap Governor Sarah Palin had to endure during the election cycle over her wardrobe? Did you ever wonder how such a non-story was turned into a big deal?
Let’s review the facts: Governor Palin was vetted for months as a potential running mate for Senator McCain, however, the decision to choose her came very late in the campaign – almost on the eve on the Republican National Convention.

While Sarah and Todd Palin make a nice living, they are not wealthy by any stretch of the imagination; this is a middle class family. When one considers that Alaska’s climate and culture is a tad different than the lower 48, it makes sense that some new duds, fit for the campaign, and her position in it, were certainly required.

Constructing a wardrobe and assembling a team to prepare a political candidate for the national spotlight is not uncommon, in fact, it is ‘business as usual’ in every campaign, with virtually every politician for national office. The media ignored that fact and focused on Michelle Obama’s frugal clothing expenditures (a public relations stunt that the media endorsed and supported) and, at the same time, needlessly and shamelessly attacked Governor Palin.

This is what happened: The GOP and a man named Jeff Larson, who is a longtime Republican advisor, and was the chief executive of the host committee for the convention, decided the wardrobe was a good idea. It was Jeff Larson who bought and paid for the clothes. Campaign finance laws, of course, dictated that the GOP reimburse Larson for his expenditure, and they did.

Unknown

Vote up this image!
What the critics of Governor Palin missed is the fact that most of the wardrobe purchased was actually sent back almost immediately, because they were the wrong size, indicating the Governor didn’t do the shopping. Most people know what sizes they wear.

But why was this even a story, let alone a 24/7 circus?

Two words, George Soros!

For those who don’t know who George Soros is, think Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the super villain from the James Bond movies, or if you will, a less endearing version of Mike Meyer’s “Dr Evil”.

Soros is an Eastern European socialist who made billions of dollars through currency and commodities speculation. He is credited with the serious devaluation of the British pound note back in 1992. He is said to be the man who “broke the Bank of England.”

In 2002, Soros was convicted of insider trading in France, a felony, and fined $2.3 million.

Recently, Soros was quoted as being very pleased with the current economic situation in America. Could it be that he is speculating on the American dollar?

What does this mean?

Well, politically, George Soros is an extreme leftist. He, of course, is a huge supporter of President Barack Obama.

The way Soros works, in my opinion, is a bit nefarious – at best. Rather than be out front and advocate his socialist policies, Soros funds dozens of far-left front groups; some with innocent enough sounding names, but, based on my research, these groups promote left-leaning schemes, nonetheless.

These groups and foundations support everything from open borders, to the legalization of most drugs, to abortion on demand. George Soros’ funded “programs” also promote the liberal agenda being taught in schools.

Some of Mr. Soros’ endeavors include: MoveOn.org, The Open Society Institute, USAction, Center For American Progress, Americans United For Change, and many more, including Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).

CREW is the group who filed the clothes complaint against Governor Palin, and, in conjunction with Soros’ many activist organizations, as well as “friends” in the media, kept the story going well past its normal shelf life.

CREW is a shadowy group. Depending on the source, you will find that CREW was either founded in 2001 by left-wing activists Norm Eisen (an attorney) and Louis Mayberg (a prominent Democrat donor, and co-founder of the Maryland-based mutual fund management firm ProFund Advisors LLC).

Or…

CREW was founded by Melanie Sloan, in 2003. Ms. Sloan is listed as the Executive Director on CREW’s website. As you see, she references 2003. “CREW was founded in 2003 by Melanie Sloan, a former U.S. Attorney.”

Confusing at best.

CREW’s “Form 990″ IRS filing for 2001 lists Mr. Mayberg as one of its three Founding Directors; the other two are Daniel Berger (a high-profile Democrat donor who in 2004 made a $100,000 contribution to America Coming Together, another Soros-funded entity) and Mark Penn (a fellow at the New Politics Institute, yet another Soros foundation, and a top Democrat strategist and pollster who not only played a key role in Bill Clinton’s 1996 presidential campaign, but also served as head of “message and strategy” for Hillary Clinton’s 2000 Senate campaign)

Although CREW denies any ties to George Soros, they indeed receive funds from the Democracy Alliance, the Tides Foundation, as well as the Open Society Institute – all Soros front groups.

CREW seeks to construe itself as “non-partisan,” however, most of their efforts target Republicans.

This group is not exempt from its own ethical quagmires: One issue involves an ethics complaint filed against The Center for Union Facts, an anti-union group, and its sister organization, the Center for Consumer Freedom, which CREW claimed are “front organizations for for-profit industry entities.”

The problem is that it appears this effort was funded by the Service Employees International Union; a group with heavy. ties to ACORN and to Soros himself in the form of contributions amounting to $75,000.

Perhaps CREW should take a good look inside its closet before filing unwarranted claims about someone else’s wardrobe.

Back to the issue at hand: like every other resolved ethics complaint filed by the unruly left against Governor Palin, this clothing ethics complaint filed with the FEC by CREW was shot down: the FEC ruled that no laws were broken.

Upon investigation, it appears that CREW prefers filing ethics complaints over actually litigating them. In fact, CREW actually changed its mission statement several times, pointedly de-emphasizing litigation.

CREW’s main purpose seems to be to file ethics complaints against a prominent, high profile target with the primary intention of seeking negative media exposure as opposed to pursuing real issues.

The “target” is marked for attack; CREW gains its destructive publicity, and then moves on to the next target. What is the purpose of this strategy if there is no successful prosecution of claims? CREW knows that the charges will be plastered on the front page of every newspaper and will be the lead story on every news channel, coast to coast, for days or even months. Of course, when the charges are thrown out, that little bit of news gets buried in a tiny blurb, deep in the newspaper, on page A18.

This has most certainly been the strategy used against Governor Palin. Numerous phony, and, sometimes, almost comical “ethics complaints” have been filed against Governor Palin since she has become a national figure and the front runner for the 2012 Republican nomination for President.

The filing of these nonsensical complaints (13 of which have been thrown out), made huge headlines nationwide, and yet little, if any, news coverage has been devoted to their resolutions.

Finally, it’s been established that George Soros is a committed socialist. It is very troubling that such a rich man can use his wealth for such un-American activities; and it is even more troubling to see many Americans either unaware or unconcerned while these anti-American actions take place.

Americans can and should hold public officials accountable for their actions. However, it’s unethical (and an oxymoron) for groups like CREW to use a valid legal procedure to damage careers and harass their political targets with phony ethics charges and feigned outrage.

Is this the America you want to live in?

Do you want an America where a far left socialist has access to the highest offices in the country and the ability to get his anti-American agenda enacted?

Well, sadly, with George Soros, that’s exactly what you have right now.

The question is, what are you willing to do about it?

Now is a time for choosing.
