Sarah Palin is the reason I cast a vote in the 2008 election. I am no fan of John McCain for many of the reasons most conservatives are not. But when he chose Sarah Palin and she hit the stage delivering that mind blowing speech at the RNC Convention, my belief in the Republican party was resuscitated.
Several weeks later I had the memorable experience of seeing Sarah Palin in person. She came to speak in my town and I was not going to miss it. I was less than 20 feet from the stage which meant I got there EARLY. It was an incredibly long, hot day on a wide open dustbin of a field. I was with my mom, my two eldest daughters and about 50 thousand of my closest conservative friends. Granted, we stood thirsty and hungry for 6+ hours to hear a 20 minute speech but to this day, I still get inspired when I think about how energizing Sarah Palin was. There is no doubt about the fact that Sarah Palin is electric. Electricity can make things run and it can also cause destruction.
Our country is in tatters in many ways, but especially ideologically. There are tiffs, rifts and mile wide chasms within the Democratic party. The Leftist fringe is attempting to hold moderate and conservative Democrats hostage just long enough to re-elect Obama in 2012. (Word to Manchin: jump ship now because all hostages will be executed December, 2012 if Obama takes a 2nd term).
Following the recent election victories, the Republican party is riding the happy bus for the next two more minutes or so but already the ultimatums, backstabbing and name calling can be heard from the back of this bus tour. There are the predictable power struggles amongst Tea Party groups not to mention the obvious odds between the Republican establishment and conservative groups in general.
Don't get me wrong, all this bickering is ultimately good for a flushing of ideas and message. Now is the time solutions and tactics are being formed, adopted or pitched to the side. At the end of the day our country can only succeed on the battleground of ideas. Ultimately, the idea we choose must be one that most Americans can relate to and rally behind together while retaining distinct ideologies and beliefs. This is the hallmark of the U.S.A. and what makes us the authentic, successful example of freedom.
Having said this, allow me to resort to a thoroughly American analogy, football. For the game to exist, there must be opposing teams, each with a coach that understands the talents within that particular team and can stir up the passion, drive and ultimate execution needed for that team to be victorious. Coach Mike Ditka and his Chicago Bears stirs the image of one sort of football team; a collection of raw talent, serious heft, grit and some limited finesse led by a loud and proud personification all these traits. On the other end of the field is another sort of outfit, the Miami Dolphins headed by Don Shula, master strategist and tactical chameleon. Both men have a personality taylor-made to focus their teams on the mission and bring home victory. These men thrive on competition and shine brightest when opposition is greatest.
This is the description of Sarah Palin. She is, in essence, a winning football coach. She knows the strengths of her team's message. She will provide the tough love to those on the team who stray from the purpose. She keeps the players stoked and the hometown crowd not only cheering but buying season tickets, a hot dog and a cold one to boot. This is what the Republican Party needs. This is the role Sarah Palin can and, in my opinion, the role she should play...a winning coach...not a league commissioner.
In the last Presidential election the American people made the grave mistake of hiring a first round draft pick as Commissioner of the League. Obama barely played the game let alone being equipped to oversee the welfare of all players, coaches and fans! Obama's allegiance is to his slime-ball agent, one Gyorgy Soros Schwartz and Soros alone. Though I believe Coach Palin would make good decisions for the league (country), I know the fans of the opposition conference would never ever, ever hear her out long enough to consider her ideas.
The President of the United States, like the Commissioner of the League, must make decisions for the good of all the teams of both conferences. He or she must be able to articulate the rationale of policies so that most of the players, coaches and fans can at least relate to the cause if not whole heartily support it. I believe the next President of the United States should be a committed conservative but this person must possess a demeanor of calm determination and confident clarity. The conservative pick for president must be able to make the argument without the trademark red meat rhetoric that was so greatly needed in anemic conservative circles of the LAST two election cycles.
Though the conservative team is now fortified with protein, there is no doubt we will always need a hard-nosed coach to direct and set up the touchdown. Sarah Palin would be the "winning est" coach in the CFC ( Conservative Political Conference), no doubt. But putting her up to be commissioner of the entire league? No. Not a winning strategy.
I have high hopes for a couple of her star players, Marco Rubio and Kristi Noem. These are two individuals possessing the right temperament for our conflict-weary country. Both believe, live and deliver the message without the vitriol. 2012 may be too soon for either of them to be considered but their personalities exemplify the calm clarity and reserved confidence a UNITED States of America could quiet down for, listen to, look at and finally recognize our shared goal of a successful, flourishing, land of freedom.
Politics is a game of personality and timing. After 8 years of Bush, the country was willing to believe in a fairytale and unfortunately, we did. We've woken up and are ready for reality. Palin may have good, common sense ideas but her delivery will always sound like a locker room speech to "Team Right Wing". Conservatives have to put forth a candidate that doesn't compromise ideals while still being able to put the electorate at ease long enough to allow them to absorb the concepts and if not make these ideals their own at least see the logic behind them.
A single team can win a single game by brute force however, the success of the league comes from all teams agreeing to the goals of the league together. The conservative candidate for League Commissioner is yet to be found but it is clear our Head Coach position has been successfully filled. I just hope Coach Palin has signed the long term contract and not the two year one.

Soros' One World Order...A 2nd Rate Petting Zoo
As a kid I remember watching Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and getting upset when Marlon Perkins would step aside, allowing nature to take its course. It seemed wrong to let those baby tigers fend for themselves or the gazelle get taken down by the lion. Marlon was standing right there! He could have stopped all the suffering and carnage but instead, he simply filmed for us so we could see the sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes frightening reality of life in the wild.
Why would such a sweet, kind, knowledgeable man, which Marlon seemed to be, not step in and make all the episodes happy, save all the animals in danger? My father explained to me that if man gets involved in the process of these animals' survival, he would create far more suffering and destruction than what occurs naturally. Animals fair best when left alone to find their own food, solve their own dilemmas, stake out their own territory. Wild animals are happiest minus man's intervention. I would soon learn this holds true for all of God's creatures.
How many times have we all heard "do not feed the bears"? Why not? Because if the bears become dependent on food from humans they lose their hunting instincts, their diets become poor and they actually develop a taste for processed food over the more nutritious wild game. If a bear does become addicted and dependent, they are more likely to seek out humans, causing danger to people and the bear alike.
This scenario of dependence holds true for human beings as well. Think of the riots today in England as well as the ones that happened in Greece and France where people are dependent on the government for their livelihood from cradle to grave. When 20 somethings are protesting about working till the age of 62, that's a pathetic example of humans with zero self-reliance. What has become of young people when they beg for authority to provide them their dreams? Someone has been feeding the bears for far too long. Now that the tourists have exceeded their limits on their credit cards and have to pack up and go home, the junk food is gobbled and gone, leaving the cubs, hungry, clawing and clueless.
Europe has been plagued with this "all-providing government" mentality for centuries compared to America who has only sipped from the cesspool of dependency at certain points in our short history. However, as Europe toys with the idea of checking into rehab, America is full steam ahead, morphing into the big government dependency nightmare our forefathers drafted the Constitution to specifically avoid.
Enter George Soros, aka, Gyorgy Schwartz. This man has a track record of taking down financial systems for the purpose of personally profiting as well as positioning himself to gain control of the markets he prompted to fail. He's made no secret about his desire to bring on a One World government that he would control and provide the conscience for. In some warped way, he rationalizes his vision as fair and just, providing all humans on the earth an equal existence. He's plowed more money than we'll ever know into political campaigns, media outlets, academia and social outreach throughout the world to bring his dream to fruition.
The last piece in his puzzle is the destruction of the United States of America. He finally managed to get a circus bear into the White House. He's cracked the whip at the Fed, who obediently flooded the markets with dollars. And his media pool of trained seals are regurgitating the script he provides on a daily basis. Does Mr. Schwartz (that translates to "Mr. Black" in English) really want the people of the world to be happy? No. His reality of equality for all the humans of the world is no better than the existence of pitiful animals found in a petting zoo.
Since the beginning of time societies have formed with the authority of the masses in the hands of an unelected few. Some rulers in this scenario are intelligent, honest men bringing prosperity to that particular society...for a while. But inevitably in human existence, power is handed off to a jerk or worse, an egotistical madman. Sure, the dependent masses are treated equally under such a ruler, equally poor. It's the same old story, one step forward under a good ruler, two steps back under a putz. The only constant is the fact that the masses are kept like caged animals, with little to no ability to determine their own destiny.
Fast forward to the creation of the United States of America. With its conception, the gates of the petting zoo were flung open. All of the animals determined to fend for themselves, hoping to thrive or at least die with dignity, flooded this new land of freedom. It was the first time in history that man was an individual, not a serf. The ideal was to leave success and failure up to the individual, resulting in a country more amazing than anyone ever imagined. America became the number one destination for any human with self-confidence and a dream. Fortunes were made and fortunes were lost but the successes far outweighed the losses. No where was the standard of living for the majority of the populace this high and growing.
So why wouldn't the rest of the world want to take on freedoms like the United States and offer all of their citizens the opportunity to be a self-sufficient individual member of society? Because the old entrenched systems of authority knew handing that sort of power over to the masses would mean an end to their cushy positions. They too would be flung into the race to fend for themselves, no longer riding the backs of the men they owned.
You see, our founding fathers were the first Marlon Perkins. They respected, revered and had total faith in the abilities of man to survive without a keeper. Not only did they believe man would survive in the atmosphere of freedom, they imagined man would thrive. Freedom provides the ability to succeed and fail on one's own, two of the most precious experiences any human can have. These are the very two experiences a person like George "Sorrows" Black wants to take away from us all. He has no faith in the individual to conduct their own lives in a free society. He much prefers us all to reside in his crumby little petting zoo where he can watch us, feed us at prescribed times, keeping him amused and fulfilled, knowing he rules over all the dumb, incompetent creatures of the Big Schwartz Sorosful Kingdom.
Time will tell if Mr. Sorrows will corral the people of the United States. He's got quite a few eating from his trough already but I believe the wild independent animals still outnumber the dependent progressive menagerie of pets Schwartzie has in his pen.
Word to the herd...bite this hand that feeds you!
