Political Jules for Love, Life & the Pursuit of Politics

It is hard to express my pride and admiration for Sarah Palin. There is so much to be thankful for, and electronic words sometimes lack the passion of true emotions. One thing that Palin has done for me is especially close to my heart. While having an advocate for special needs in the White House will be a big plus in my book, Sarah has brought back a much needed pride in conservatism.

For many years I was the quiet conservative never really speaking out in mixed company for fear of an unhealthy confrontation. Specially about heated items like abortion. I also believed in the family, with the mom and the dad having very different roles that work together seamlessly. I believed in God, not just some higher power, and I believed God’s rules were the final ’say-so’ no matter how much you tried to debate any issue. Not only that, but I believed those rules came from God. Not just because some republican told me to believe it. However, I was fairly quiet about it.

Enter Sarah Palin. Who holds her head high, and never makes apologies about her conservative values. She is proud of them and darnit, so am I!

The other awesome thing about her, is that SHE’S NOT PERFECT, but she’s allot closer to perfect than the proclaimed Messiah on the other side. All the slams, all the smears, and all the failed attempts to wreck her character, have only served to make us like her even more. I love the way she takes on each accusation as if to say, “ok, are you done now? Can we get back to the issues at hand?” That is COOL.

So, I am proud to wear my conservative values on the outside. I am proud to proclaim myself to be pro-life. You can argue your pro-abortion/pro-choice position until you are blue in the face, but I don’t answer to you, I answer to God. I am not a radical Christian, by any means, but SO WHAT IF I AM? Christianity is not something to be trashed upon, at any level of commitment. Christian values are based on sound rules and actions for the betterment of ALL people. What’s so horrible about that?

This is not to say I would not welcome any religion into our great United States. Because we all have a place here, for many faiths. The motto is, ‘freedom of religion,’ not ‘freedom FROM religion!’

However, if your religious beliefs lead you into hate and destruction, than there is no place for you here, and in my humble opinion, is not a religion at all. Christian values are not about race or labels, it is about human beings learning to love each other.

So that is just a brief view into my heart of hearts admiration for Sarah Palin. She is my hero.
