As a small business owner for the past twenty years, my attitude and optimism never waved nor floundered. Though I started my business during the S&L crisis in 1988, I've had growth in sales consistently up until this year. Since October of 2008 sales have decreased and are staying down simply because of fear. The consuming public has had there net worth decreased by 40% or more, There homes devalued, There banks won't give them credit, and there government says that they have to sacrifice more by wanting to increase there taxes and lower the standard living that they have been accustom to. Simply put there security has been shaken and fear of tomorrow has set in.
When fear replaces confidence is like a speeding car on a crowded superhighway suddenly slamming on its breaks. The chain reaction is devastating because your helpless to avoid the collisions that ensue. My question along with everyone else I meet is Why? Why has this been allowed to happen the way that it has? Why were any of the warning signs so disguised that we were not allowed to react if we choose to? Were we conspired against so that we would be forced to change our ways? Is the lifestyle of the United States such an obstacle to achieving one world order that it is required to be destroyed? These are questions that wacko conspiracy theorists say not normal citizens that live their lives and mind their own business. None of this makes any sense for logic and reason has been abandoned and now fear resides.

Get Out of the Way, I'll Do It
The initial appearance of this political season so far is looking like a bad dream that is rapidly turning into a nightmare. President Obama has set his sights on changing the American culture as we know it to his vision of redistributing the wealth to who he perceives to be the rightful owners. If the Constitution gets in the way it is to be ignored or it has to evolve to adjust to the times. This world wind of change has got many people talking and searching for alternatives that can return this country to some element of common sense.
In my search for direction I came upon blog www.conservatives4palin.com that appears to be a very pleasant surprise. As the title states this site is devoted to Sarah Palin. One of the prominent posts is titled " Who is Sarah Palin " by R.A. Mansour, whom I made the mistaken presumption was a man. Ms Mansour is a freelance writer that has taken the time to research and find out information that gives her readers a sense of who Governor Palin is. She goes into the Governors childhood, how she was raised, the influences that effected her life and judgment, and how she handles adversity.
Within this article RAM ( Ms Mansour) points out two phrases that are somewhat important to Sarah Palin they are " Get out of my way, I'll do it" and her reason for public Service " To participate and to make a difference." What I have found interesting about these two phrases are that they not only apply to the Governor but rather to the writers and editors of this wonderful blog. The team members of this blog are Hal, Daniel Terrapin, Sinistar, The Aged P, Rob Harrison, Joshua Livestro, Adam Brickley, RA Mansour, IA Crowther, The editors, Dave C, Videmus Omnia, J Smith, Joseph Russo and K Carpenter. Though there many hundreds of Blogs supporting Sarah Palin This particular group is in total sync with rapid fire response to negative press by both the left leaning media and the moderate republicans that have set there sight into destroying the destined political future of Sarah Palin.
This group is reminiscent of Bill Clinton's War Room crowd that consisted of James Carville and George Stephaopoulos along with the help of Paul Begala, Rahm Emmanuel and Dee Dee Meyers. However, let me make a clear distinction between C4P and the War Room, which is the War Room crowd's goal was to destroy that person they went after, C4P on the other hand only counters with facts and truth and most important is that it is all volunteer effort. From what I can see C4P follows " To participate and To make a difference " phrase and a word of caution to the established media persona " Get out of the way, C4P will do it"
For all those that have not gone to www.conservatives4palin.com do so and see for yourself how this group of excellent writers have Sarah Palin's back covered.
Thank you C4P for a job well done!

The Essence of Mrs Palin
The old adage a picture is worth a thousand words, well these pictures of Sarah Palin provides anyone a glimpse of her inner being.No amount of posing nor photo shop can capture eyes so captivated by the specialness that she sees.
The gentle touch of a hand caressing a precious human being that others would tend to ignore.
An ever attentive smile of acknowledgment while listening to a child's comments.
The display of sheer joy in knowing that this encounter was worth the long journey and possible crass remarks of those that have envy in there hearts rather than love in there soul.
Words are not enough for these two pictures show the essence of Mrs Sarah Palin.
