Sarah Palin was in God's Country last night, preaching "revolution" to the Arkansas GOP in exchange for $100,000 or so. The party also gave her an engraved .44-magnum rifle. So that's what you get the quitter who has everything.
The Arkansas Republican Party was happy to allow press coverage of Palin's speech, but she overruled them, so the only accounts we have are from reporters' notes. The Arkansas Times took a statistical approach:
Number of African-Americans in attendance: 4.
Mentions of President Obama: 1.
Times Palin mentioned the Republican Party in her speech: 1.
Wal-Mart: 7.
We have no idea what that means—maybe Palin hopes Wal-Mart stores will serve as supply depots for partisans in the coming revolution. From local station KTHV:
"I think our country is ready for another revolution and this one can take place at the ballot box in 2010 in a town near you," Palin told a crowd of about 5,000 people at Verizon Arena in downtown North Little Rock.
And if the ballot box fails, the Arkansas GOP got Plan B rolling by presenting Palin with a $2,000 .44-magnum rifle engraved with her name. (Though in an unforgivable faux pax, the party picked a gun that was manufactured in New Jersey, a known outpost of fake America.)
The event raised $400,000 for the state Republican Party. Palin's fee wasn't disclosed, but her going rate is $100,000 per appearance.

He likely gets this amount from the ‘fee’ supposedly paid her at the Tea Party event, which she acknowledged returning back to the Tea Party.
So he applies this to the GOP event, which he has no confirmation of; just his own useless speculation. This is worthless, IMO.
Gee, I just saw ONE African-American on this jerk’s webpage.
I guess that is the new criterion of merit from the looney left.
Sounds more like he’s constipated and just had to ‘express’ in some way. What a petty little piece and it all could have been avoided by taking a laxative.
She isn’t saying anything Judge Napolitano’s hasn’t already said:

Which make and model is the .44?
gawk gawk all you want ... Who runs this idiots site, a moron?
I suppose he got a warm feeling running down his leg as well. I just hope he changed his diaper fast.
A firearm, made anywhere, in this country is a reaffirmation of the 2nd Amendment and laudable. I have bought several guns, ammunition and other supplies from 'Yankee' territory. It is the one exception in my rule of NO CASH FOR BLUE....
The extreme left keep working this story line: Birthers, teabaggers, right-wing conspiracy, segregation, armed revolt, racism, christian theocracy, and the rest of the bullshit they say.
The bottom line is that the Democrats ran as more conservative than John McCain and conservative democrats and independents leaning right believed it. Meanwhile conservative Republicans refused to vote. Obama wins and threw away the mask of conservatism. Now the natural conservatives and moderates regret their reckless choice and are uncontrollably pissed that radical socialism has seized their country.
The left will never learn who, what, where, and why americans despise them.
Cool.
Henry rifles are made in Brooklyn, NY IIRC.

My mistake and I thank you for the correction. Sweet rifle, that one.
Damn a friend of mine has an early Ruger 44 mag carbine, kind of a stepped up 10/22, nice piece of machinery.
