A Note from LibertyRocks

Yesterday, in this section I revealed my plans for a Palin Activists' Resource website. I'm happy to announce that several people have already volunteered to help put the site together. If you would like to assist - especially with the "TruthFiles" section of the site, please let me know. A hearty thanks to FReeper "Toki" who will be helping with the design of the site itself!

I have rushed this issue as well as yesterday's due to the Convention events -- I want to watch all the speeches too! LOL Starting tomorrow we'll be able to "settle in" a little and I will be able to add a lot more regarding articles and such. I will also be able to start concentrating on getting down to business and fighting back against some of these smears against Palin & McCain.

Please also remember to keep using those keywords here at FReerepublic. It helps me to go through the hundreds of articles that are put up everyday here. Without the help of FReepers pinging me to articles and posts this would be a LOT harder -- so thank you to those who have pinged me to various posts, I really appreciate it.

Enjoy McCain's speech tonight everyone! We've got the media and the liberals' heads spinning! With everyone's assistance in various ways - whatever way you personally can help - we can make sure that this momentum keeps going all the way till November! Let's do everything we can personally to help McCain & Palin win this election - our Country is counting on us all!!!

God bless you & yours,
LibertyRocks

Looking forward to John McCain's speech tonight! Listening to Mrs. McCain speaking right now, and after watching the video of her to the convention - wow, I didn't know a lot about her, and I'm impressed with the kind of person she is.

Take care everyone! Have a wonderful night, and GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

As the day has passed and I have considered the events and Governor Sarah Palin's outstanding, all-American speech last night...I am more and more convinced that this good woman has in fact been preserved there in Alaska...quietly (to the rest of us here in the lower 48, or as they say up there us here in the "outside") respondiong to the promptings of her own heart to get involved and accomplishing much in her own right as she was prepared to be there to come to America's aid when John McCain made this inspired call...and I believe McCain was inspired in this choice.

Amazing. Despite all the planning, the positioning, the buying of influence, the pedaling of influence, and the rock star blitz of the other side...we are seeing that, IMHO, the good Lord can prepare something off to the side that wholly undoes all of that wrangling.

That's what we are seeing here IMHO.

HOW THE PALIN PICK TRUMPS OBAMA-BIDEN

[LibertyRocks]

I couldn't agree with you more, Jeff! The Lord indeed works in mysterious ways. If we, as Christians (and even agnostics, or atheists can see the paralell here if they are willing to admit it) - if we take a step back and look this election is a lesson to us...

First, it warns us how easy it will be when a False Prophet, or the Anti-Christ himself comes on the scene to get so many people be swept up in rhetoric, and good feelings - fleeting things that do nothing to make them better people, and indeed end up hurting the very people they think they are helping. Evil builds upon people's hate, and that is definitely something the "Left" is "rich" in right now... Hate with no clearly defined definition - they don't even KNOW what they're angry about, but they've picked their scapegoat(s).

Second, with Sarah Palin now on the scene it proves to us that God is STILL with us. He is speaking to the hearts and minds of Americans (and others around the world) like Sarah Palin. He fills us with the strength and courage to stand up - sometimes against remarkable odds. Even if McCain and Palin DON'T win in November (which doesn't seem likely now...), I think Christians, and particularly Christian Women will be much more likely to stand up against the "Death-embracing" left. With God on our side, we cannot fail. The "good guys" ALWAYS win in the end!

FYI - Here are two version of the bumper sticker thought up by Grey_Whiskers, by this very thing we are discussing...
