Gov. Palin’s Finest Hour of 2010

Her Finest Hour of 2010: Gov. Palin kneels and comforts a diaper-clad infant suffering from cholera.

Governor Palin could have easily made a foreign trip to bolster her political aspirations, like some haters are ridiculously alleging she did by going to Haiti. As the 2012 Presidential campaigns will start to spool up over the next two months, a visit to Margaret Thatcher and/or Bibi Netanyahu would have been the vehicle to build her foreign policy credentials. Last week, rumors were swirling that Gov. Palin was visiting the former British Prime Minister. We, at US for Palin hope that she will in the early part of next year visit both Margaret Thatcher and Bibi Netanyahu.

Gov. Palin is in Haiti, helping bring, aid supplies, and simple joy to victims of a cholera outbreak. This is not the first time, Gov. Palin has extended her generosity to Haiti. In March 2010, she donated $1750 to the Red Cross. On January 14, 2010, she asked supporters via Facebook Note and Tweets to donate $10 to Haiti relief efforts by texting a number to the Red Cross.

The Palin Airlift of 2009

In 2009, Gov. Palin’s finest hour was that moment when she knelt before a small Eskimo girl and took her in her arms. Gov. Palin sacrificed the CPAC annual meeting and instead organized an airlift with Samaritan’s Purse bringing food and supplies to distressed villages in remote sections of Alaska. She personally distributed supply packages, stopping only when every villager had one.

    Palin stated today, Sunday Dec. 12, at a noon conference that she found "conditions in Haiti to be much harsher than she anticipated".

    Palin is a news contributor at Fox. If she watched CNN she would know the condition of Haiti. Fox airs the news its audience want to see. Bash the President.

      Number of visits our so-called President made to Haiti: 0.
      Number of lavish vacations at tax-payer's expense taken by our so-called President: In the course of all the excitement, I kind of lost track.
      Amount of money donated by our so-called President to the Red Cross for Haiti: $0.00.
      Efforts undertaken by our so-called President to gin up donations for Haiti: 0.

      Fox News has liberal and conservative commentators.
      CNN is all liberal.
      If you don't like either, you have a remote control. Learn how to use it, and be thankful you live in a country where you can choose Fox or CNN, or MS-LSD. In many places, you take what the state gives you – comrade.

      When Sarah is President from 2012 – 2020, I'm sure you'll be bashing her. She's been my President since the tragic night of November 4, 2008.

    Chris, I watch Fox and I watch CNN. Both channels informed their viewers that NOTHING they could show was a substitute for reality in Haiti. A picture may be worth a 1,000 words, but showing up in person is priceless! Bush was trashed for his reaction to Katrina, every single media outlet gave Obama a pass for his miserable failure in his response to Haiti. He offered no leadership, as he has offered no leadership here in the US during the floods in Tennessee and he used the floods in North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota to expand AmeriCorps and other government programs, without providing any actual aid to the devastated areas.
