Last night Sarah Palin spoke at Wisconsin Right to Life. Fellow
C4Per,
K. Carpenter, was there and has provided a detailed report of what the
governor spoke about. I expected her words to be passionate,
heart-felt, and rooted in love for God and life. That's exactly what
they were.

Governor
Palin then began to tell a story of a conversation she and one of her
friends in Alaska had a few weeks ago. Her friend had picked up a
couple of the relatively new $1 dollar gold colored coins. They were
discussing what was missing off of the front of the coins. Those four
little words that have gotten America through her most troubling
moments, “In God we trust”. As she observed; those four little words
have been pushed off to the side of the coin. No longer prominently
displayed on the face of the coin but those words have now been hidden
on the outer edge of the coin. As she observed, this is kind of where
we, as a Nation, have shoved God in our own lives. She even stated that
she had kind of done that with her own pro life movement. Yes, she was
always pro-life but it was not really something she prominently
displayed until she became pregnant with Trig.
Oh boy, when she
talks about Trig, her entire persona just lights up. You can tell this
woman is completely in love with that little boy. Governor Palin
admitted that she was afraid before Trig was born on how she would
handle a little boy with special needs. She also mentioned how she and
Todd chose to work through the problems together.
The governor
also spoke briefly about Bristol and the choices she had to make and
the love and joy that Tripp has brought to their lives. Clearly,
Governor Palin is very proud of her daughter and her grandson that is
almost a year old. Governor Palin stated that people make mistakes but
a beautiful child came as a result of that mistake. A mistake is no
reason to take a life.
Please go over to
Conservatives4Palin and read the entire article.
While
there are many isssues on which individuals can agree to disagree, life
is not one of them. It's too valuable, too precious, too fragile. I
could rattle off a list of why I respect Sarah Palin as a leader and as
a person. At the top of that list is her appreciation for life and
refusal to compromise that position. She's not afraid to take a stand.
Our nation needs this, and our unborn certainly do.
K. Carpenter ends her
article with this:
Governor Palin left us with these words: "Don’t ever let anyone tell you to sit down and shut up”!
Don't worry, Gov, not sitting down, not shutting up, just getting started--like you.
