Sarah Palin: Do Wall Street Journal Reporters Read the Wall Street Journal?
C4P/FACEBOOK ^ | 08 NOVEMBER 2010 | GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN

Posted on 11/08/2010 5:00:33 PM PST by Extremely Extreme Extremist

Ever since 2008, people seem inordinately interested in my reading habits. Among various newspapers, magazines, and local Alaskan papers, I read the Wall Street Journal.

So, imagine my dismay when I read an article by Sudeep Reddy in today’s Wall Street Journal criticizing the fact that I mentioned inflation in my comments about QE2 in a speech this morning before a trade-association. Here’s what I said: “everyone who ever goes out shopping for groceries knows that prices have risen significantly over the past year or so. Pump priming would push them even higher.”

Mr. Reddy takes aim at this. He writes: “Grocery prices haven’t risen all that significantly, in fact.” Really? That’s odd, because just last Thursday, November 4, I read an article in Mr. Reddy’s own Wall Street Journal titled “Food Sellers Grit Teeth, Raise Prices: Packagers and Supermarkets Pressured to Pass Along Rising Costs, Even as Consumers Pinch Pennies.”

The article noted that “an inflationary tide is beginning to ripple through America's supermarkets and restaurants…Prices of staples including milk, beef, coffee, cocoa and sugar have risen sharply in recent months.”

Now I realize I’m just a former governor and current housewife from Alaska, but even humble folks like me can read the newspaper. I’m surprised a prestigious reporter for the Wall Street Journal doesn’t.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and a grizzly bear? The grizzly leaves some bits left over after he mauls you.

While other Republicans are sitting around still pointing fingers over the “loss” of the mid-terms, Governor Palin has taken the next step and is always a step ahead of her competitors.

Still the WSJ is the best daily periodical. Not perfect, but best choice we have.

OUCH that is gonna leave a mark. I guess the most logical question to Mr. Reddy is “What do YOU read?”

Gov. Palin is the only politician of any stripe dealing with reality and saying what needs to be said. All the rest are-—————————politicing.

Thank you Sarah Palin.

Oh, and to all you arrogantly elitist libertarians and oh so superior RINOs out there I say go to hell.

We’ve got our leader and she demonstrates every day why she deserves to be our leader. The rest of the so-called presidential contenders are more afraid to fail than they are of succeeding. Unlike them authentic leaders are not afraid to take risks, do not compromise principle and are not afraid to tell you what they believe.

I defy any of Palins detractors to prove me wrong.

I’ll be back to see if you have any takers. So far I see the Palin detractors strangely quiet.
