Following is the complete transcript of Governor Palin's Facebook Note
on exercising leadership and winning wars, specifically the war in
Afghanistan:
As
Thanksgiving festivities wind down we contemplate all we have to be
thankful for as free Americans! We head into the Christmas season
wishing for leadership in Washington that reflects our commitment to
the values and ideals that have built the freest and most prosperous
and generous nation on earth.
Heading into December and Tuesday’s announcement of our nation’s
strategy in Afghanistan, I ask the President to reassure us that the
administration is in this War on Terror to win.
And I’ll pass along the following from Harold B. Estes,
a 95-year-old member of the Greatest Generation: “I realize you never
served in the military and never had to defend your country with your
life, but you’re the Commander-in-Chief now, son. Do your job. When
your battle-hardened field General asks you for 40,000 more troops to
complete the mission, give them to him. But if you’re not in this fight
to win, then get out.”
Thank you, Mr. President. Please tell us on Tuesday that America is in it to win.
