Sarah Palin's resignation

My first reaction to Palin's resignation was a deep disappointment that she would abandon her duties before her term of office had expired. After several days of reflection I had to ask myself if I would endure, or alternately, allow my family to endure the pummeling that she has taken from the loony left along with their facilitators in the MSM.

The craven witch hunt that ensued after her nomination for VP ranks as one of the most despicable in modern politics and demonstrates what the left considers discourse in today's world of internet innuendo. If Obama had been subjected to one tenth the vetting that Palin had he would never had become president. Can you imagine how our thin skinned president would have reacted to his family being treated the way Palin's family has been treated? But remember, his family was "off limits". Nice of him to extend the same protections to Sarah and Todd's family.

Of course Sarah's resignation is a gift the left could only hope for in their wildest dreams. She represented everything that they did not and she scared the bejezzus out of them because she held up to the light the perversity of their thought and the dishonesty of their actions. This was never about ideology, it was about power, pure and simple, and any people who allow their liberties to be slowly eroded by a political class who think they know what is best for everyone (from seat belts to second hand smoke), deserve exactly what they have coming.

One last thought, what would have been your reaction if you and your family were being attacked daily? Has the left finally broken the barracuda? I don't know, but in the end if she did this soley to remove her family from the polluted spotlight of the national media so that they might have a normal life, then I salute her. God's speed Sarah!
