Here She Comes

Late this afternoon my wife & I witnessed the transition of power from Alaska's most famous daughter to newly sworn in Sean Parnell in downtown Fairbanks. I can think of zero other people in my thirty something years of room & board on this big blue marble that evoke such intensely polarizing emotions as Governor Sarah Palin. I also continue to be astounded at the relentless calculated attacks on this woman & her family.

Beyond shameful & inexcuseable.

Good people will always disagree with one another on the issue of politics. No surprise there. Most however, (granted, not all, but most) will criticize a politician on their platform, NOT their latest irrelevant hairstyle, equally irrelevant wardrobe, or worst & most disturbing of all, sacred offspring.

A wise psychologist from the Amarillo, TX region once told me "People can't help but tell on themselves." So when these classless snipers continue to verbally as well as legally assault this brave woman & her children I cannot help but be reminded of the fact that no military commander would EVER use a highly mobile M1 Abrams tank to take out a mosquito. Translation: If she were genuinely no threat, the opposition wouldn't be wasting its time.

End of an era? Think again. Hell hath no furry like a provoked momma grizzly.

Act II: Scene II: "The Reckoning."

Here she comes.
