Well, I have to say that if Sarah isn’t laying the groundwork for a Presidential run, with this bus tour, I am sadly mistaken.
Watching this short video, it is so obvious that Sarah, expresses much of what most everyday working American citizens believe and hold dear.
This alone is why the Elitists of both parties hold her in such contempt.
They much prefer to tell us what is best for us and then pass laws and provisions, to force us to follow their dictates.
Those of us, who were fortunate enough to attend school when they actually taught the History of this Country, and how a Democratic Government is actually supposed to operate, see very clearly what is currently happening with the Leadership of this Country. For this reason alone, we need people like Sarah, Michelle Bachmann, Lt. Col. West, and other voices of true Conservative values.
The elitists keep throwing out names like Romney, Gingrich, and others. They do not want to lose their control.
What the American People need to realize that the type of Government that the RINOS and “Moderates”, propose. is what has gotten us to this point, and that if things do not change, the once powerful Nation, will become just another country, struggling to survive, led by quasi-royalty.
Some Democrat from Washington, wants her investigated for spending too much money on her bus tour and taking advantage of the Park Service.
With a 14.3 Trillion dollar debt, You’d think there is more going on than Sarah Palins bus tour. No they don’t care about the debt just trivial things.
“It seems everyone wants a piece of Palin these days. Some are fans, some are hostile foes. But regardless, we just can’t stop talking about her. Will there ever be a time when we decide that we’ve figured her out and there’s nothing else to say ?
And then it hit me. The reason Palin has become such a lightening rod, a kingmaker and a punching bag, a celebrity and a power player, is simple. It’s because she’s so gosh darn happy. For her fans, like the ones I had the pleasure of meeting in Chicago, she’s refreshingly upbeat and resilient, the bubbly friend from childhood who was always great at cheering you up and cheerleading you on.
But for her detractors, nothing raises the ire of cynical liberals more than a happy-go-lucky, totally unburdened, freethinking and self-assured conservative woman who has everything she wants and then some. And without anyone’s help.
Sure, she’ll tell you that Todd, her parents and her children are an invaluable support system. But after eight years of hearing that George W. Bush was a nepotism experiment gone wrong, Sarah Palin has made it here (wherever this is) on her own. John McCain’s imprimatur certainly launched her into the national spotlight, but she became the youngest and first female governor of Alaska all on her own.
How dare she ?
Liberalism, after all, needs to imagine an unhappy populace. Passing sweeping entitlement programs and convincing voters that big government is the answer only works if people are frustrated with their stations in life.
Thus Palin is a real threat to front-office operations.
And Sarah Palin, more than almost any other public political figure, represents the “can do” rugged individualism and self-reliance that liberals fear most. She’s not just running her household. She ran her state! And in her new documentary series, we see that independent streak clear as glacier water. Whether she’s casting for salmon or scaling the rock face at Denali, she’s smiling – and just won’t quit.
It isn’t the angry, antiquated feminism of a Barbara Boxer. Or the pushy defiance of a Nancy Pelosi who refuses to go quietly into that dark night. Or even the brash “I can make you regret being born” argumentativeness of an Ann Coulter.
It’s the kind of ambition that comes from confidence in her convictions and the security of knowing that no matter what happens to her in the press, she’s got a happy home life and everything she needs to survive in the wild – the Washington wild, that is.
If Palin’s critics really want her to go away, they don’t have to worry about her politics, her faith or her folksy rhetoric. They need to worry about her boundless happiness which, like her favorite hunting weapon, is poised to be a warm gun for anyone who dares cross her path.”

Mark, thanks for the information. My gosh these peoople are sick and like you said with debt and growing because of obama how dare they even open their mouths about what the bus tour is costing.
