Palin Headlines Conservative Events

Ex-AK Gov. Sarah Palin (R) is set to headline several events that will attract conservative activists over the coming months, her first public appearances following a widely successful book tour.

Palin will keynote the first National Tea Party Convention at the Opryland Hotel in Nashville, TN, on Feb. 6, following 2 other prominent conservative women, Reps. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN).

In April, she will address the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, an annual gathering that attracts anyone who wants to run for the WH (And, by the way, an event sponsored by Villere's Florist, owned by LA GOP chair Roger Villere). Later that month, she stops by Women of Joy, an evangelical Christian organization that hosts a major meeting in Louisville, KY.

But Palin is skipping the Conservative Political Action Conference, another annual affair that features a widely-reported straw poll. Palin aides told Politico the decision to skip the stop came after CPAC organizer David Keene asked FedEx for a massive contribution in exchange for support on a legislative matter.

Grassroots Movement = Tea Party = for the people by the people

Tea Party Convention =Sarah Palin as main speaker= quit as Governor= tickets to the event are $549 each???!!!???

It seems the two statements should have nothing to do with each other...

The real members of the Tea Party Movement are not quitters...We don't abandon our elected posts, our jobs, or responsibilities. This movement was born out of sheer frustration with Washington, the Big Brother Police State, and taxation without representation. Now the Tea Party Movement has been infiltrated, watered down, and Sarah Palin has been elected Rogue Queen of the Movement. What a crock! And $549 for 1 ticket!!! That's highway robbery! Compare this with the upcoming Campaign for Liberty Convention in Atlanta GA 1/15-1/17/2010..Ron Paul is the main speaker who has voted Constitutionally and said no to bigger government, unnecessary war, and higher taxes... and the price to attend his Convention? 65$!!!

When are so-called 'Conservatives' and 'Republicans' going to learn? Perhaps, they don't want to truly experience liberty and America the way our Founding Fathers intended it to be. Perhaps, having FOX (FAUX) NEWS spoon feed them their new opinions on Obama, Endless War, and Al Quaeda is what they settle for...Mike Huckabee, Glenn Beck, and Sean Hannity validate their existence and entertain the fake 'Conservatives' all the while they bash True conservatives and Americans like Ron Paul.

Evidence of insult and discrimination against True Conservatives and Constitutionalists by FOX (FAUX) NEWS and their Underlings:

Glenn Beck calls Ron Paul supporters 'terrorists':

Hannity insults/discredits Ron Paul and his supporters:
Ron Paul Florida Post Debate w/ Hannity & Colmes 10-21-07
Hannity tries to discount the poll results but Ron Paul forces Hannity to affront the audience, insult FOX News, or admit Ron Paul won. In all, a great interview and surprisingly civil.

Huckabee attempting to debate Ron Paul and showing his ignorance on foreign policy:

An old post of mine explaining Huckabee's flawed logic, his past failures and non conservative voting record, and his discrediting of a Constitutional Conservative Tea Party or Third Party:

Which one of the above events could the average American more likely attend? Especially during these times of rising unemployment and financial uncertainty?

Please examine what I have presented and decide which kind of Conservative or Constitutionalist you are!!!

Do you want lower taxes, limited federal government, and the freedom to exercise your Constitutional Rights?

Or do you want bigger more bloated Federal Govt, more Endless War, more pork barrel projects, and more bills like the Patriot Act (brought to you by the Neo-Conservative George W Bush)?

In Truth and Liberty,

That maybe a smart move on Palin's part. The Tea Party is where it's at.

$549 a ticket is to no doubt cover Palin speaking fees.
