I can’t say that I blame her. Politics these days is not family friendly. Power in Washington has become so desired that it’s become like methamphetamine for progressives, whose ideology of central planning of society all depends on holding power, and the more of it they have the more they will do anything to hold onto it.

Nobody should have to pay this kind of price for being involved in politics. Her family obviously doesn’t have unlimited resources for paying attorneys to defend her against spurious ethics charges. Nor should it have to.

I hope that she returns to public life after her children are grown, because she has a lot of charisma and common sense.

I’m not so sure that America deserves good leadership, if we don’t rise up to condemn the kind of hatchet work that has been done to destroy Mrs. Palin. Imagine what the reaction would be if the kind of things that have been published about her, both true and untrue, had been splashed around about Barack Obama’s family.
