Piper Palin is officially having the best vacation ever
Yahoo! News' The Ticket ^ | June 2, 2011 | Holly Bailey

Sarah Palin's East Coast tour may be a dry run for her potential presidential campaign, but the real star of the show this week has been the former governor's 10-year-old daughter, Piper.

The youngest Palin daughter, sporting an impressive collection of oversize sunglasses, has been at her mom's side all this week during the ex-governor's tour of historical sites—sometimes playing tourist, other times perfecting the fine art of giving the stink eye to reporters.

Piper has even seemed to play the role of her mom's bodyguard, physically blocking a reporter who tried to talk to the ex-governor during a visit to Philadelphia this week. You can watch the video here, courtesy Philadelphia's Fox 29.

Palin has described her jaunt this week as a "family vacation," and Piper has had a starring role in her mother's diary from the road. "He was a commercial fisherman from DC?!" Palin quoted her daughter saying of George Washington during their visit to Mount Vernon.

But in this case, the old adage proves correct: The pictures really do say a thousand words. Here's a few highlights of Piper Palin's trip, so far:

Would the de facto first family even get this much coverage if they boarded a bus and followed the same route?

Interesting - Notice what Sarah is wearing on her necklace... is that a jab at Obummer's speech throwing Israel under the bus? Maybe a sign of support for Israel?

The Obamas would never be able to take a trip with the express purpose of honoring US historical landmarks. They would become terminally ill on day one.

Nah, because everything would go through an editor to conform to the Narrative and the media would be busy cleaning up any faux pas.

Admirable.

But regarding the election, that stalwart show of support might allow hercapture of the Jewish vote to soar all the way up to 19%.

Piper seems like a sweet kid with a wonderful family. Would love to hang out with all the Palins.

Either Sarah is a genius or she has some great advisers. The Star of David was priceless

She wore that on the 44th anniversary of the reunification of Jerusalem.

Looks like support to me. The many of us are paying for Israel...I got a Star of David paper weight to remind me to pause and send up prayers.

Thanks. I think I’ll contact SarahPAC to see if they are available somewhere. They are a great tie to the WW movie coming out, which I think might be “on purpose”.

"Maybe a sign of support for Israel? "

She regularly wears a pin which features the U.S. flag and the flag of Israel.

See, the press will put this under “10 Year old RESENTS doing the Pledge of Allegiance, so NOONE should do it!” or some other bs, rather than, “10 year old gives stink eye to the press”

'Best vacation ever' - Paid for from citizens' donations to a Political Action Committee which ensured donors that their money would be going to support conservative candidates to elected office.

What she is doing may be perfectly legal, but is it ethical? Especially for a self-professed Christian who happens to be a multimillionaire. She herself has stated this tour is nonpolitical, and not a campaign. Then why siphon money from her PAC to finance it?

This country has had in its history four Presidents who were honorable, before, during; after they assumed that post. One was Reagan, and the other three were born in the 19 c.
From the looks of things, that number, four, will not be changing at any time in my lifetime.
