Todd & Sarah Palin attended the Indianapolis 500 today as the guests of Parnelli Jones, winner of the 1963 Indy 500. Palin has shared the following three photos on her Facebook page.

Todd and I at the #Indy500 today. What an epic all-American event!
Breitbart has a really great write-up on the Palin's experience at the Indy 500.
Former Alaska governor and Republican vice presidential nominee
Sarah Palin won over racing fans this weekend at the Indianapolis 500,
again showing how well she resonates with people because she genuinely
loves retail politics and meeting them.
As was observed, that genuineness--and patience--cannot be faked.
Palin met with people in the lobby of the hotel she was staying at on
Saturday night, and those who observed her noticed how patient she was
with everyone as they asked for her time. It is worth noting that those
who do not even have as many speaking engagements and television
appearances as requests Palin has had to deny often find interacting
with supporters to be a burden. Not Palin.
Palin also encountered Breitbart News and Breitbart Sports writer
extraordinaire Mary Chastain, an avid racing fan who was at the Indy 500
this weekend, as can be seen in photo below.
Parnelli Jones, the 1963 Indy 500 champ, invited the Palins this weekend. More

It's truly not a coincidence that on the very day President Obama speaks at a Planned Parenthood fundraiser that you will find Governor Sarah Palin speaking at a dinner to people who advocate for life. God's perfect timing? I think so.
Governor Palin shared the following on her Facebook page prior to her speech:
There’s no such thing as a coincidence. Today
I’m looking forward to speaking at a pro-life women’s resource center in
Nevada. I intend again to remind women that we are strong enough and
capable enough to choose life and work together to create
a culture that empowers everyone to live to the fullest. How ironic
that on this same day President Obama will be headlining a gala event
for the highly controversial and repeatedly discredited organization
Planned Parenthood. He's the first sitting president to speak to them,
but then again he’s also the first president who is so radically
pro-abortion that as a state senator he refused three times to vote in
favor of legislation that would simply provide medical attention to
babies born alive from botched abortions. Considering the role Planned
Parenthood has played in looking the other way while the mass murdering
abortion doctor Gosnell butchered babies born alive from his horrific
infanticide procedures and abused his women patients, it’s perhaps not
surprising that this same president sees nothing wrong with allowing his
name to be so openly associated with this organization.
Please take a look at the following excerpt from Jonah Goldberg’s book
“Liberal Fascism” for information about the racist and eugenicist
origins of Planned Parenthood, then ask yourself again why in the world
our president would “bless” the cruel underlying efforts of an
organization like this. Do you want him to spend your family’s hard
earned tax dollars funding this culture of death? Surely there are
people of good conscience within Planned Parenthood and other
pro-abortion centers who will feel the imperative within themselves to
find other ways to help women in their time of need. There are so many
better answers than merely eliminating the most precious, promising
ingredient we have on earth – innocent human life. May efforts to cull
the defenseless and vulnerable not be “blessed,” instead may God bless
those who decide that respecting a culture of life in America is the
only way to get us out of the mess we’re in.

Palin then shared this link with her Facebook followers:
Margaret Sanger, whose American Birth
Control League became Planned Parenthood, was the founding mother of the
birth-control movement. She is today considered a liberal saint, a
founder of modern feminism, and one of the leading lights of the
Progressive pantheon. Gloria Feldt of Planned Parenthood proclaims, “I
stand by Margaret Sanger’s side,” leading “the organization that carries
on Sanger’s legacy.” Planned Parenthood’s first black president, Faye
Wattleton — Ms. magazine’s “Woman of the Year” in 1989 — said
that she was “proud” to be “walking in the footsteps of Margaret
Sanger.” Planned Parenthood gives out annual Maggie Awards to
individuals and organizations who advance Sanger’s cause. Recipients are
a Who’s Who of liberal icons, from the novelist John Irving to the
producers of NBC’s West Wing. What Sanger’s liberal admirers
are eager to downplay is that she was a thoroughgoing racist who
subscribed completely to the views of E. A. Ross and other
“raceologists.” Indeed, she made many of them seem tame.
Sanger was born into a poor family of eleven children in Corning, New
York, in 1879. In 1902 she received her degree as a registered nurse.
In 1911 she moved to New York City, where she fell in with the
transatlantic bohemian avant-garde of the burgeoning fascist moment.
“Our living-room,” she wrote in her autobiography, “became a gathering
place where liberals, anarchists, Socialists and I.W.W.’s could meet.” A
member of the Women’s Committee of the New York Socialist Party, she
participated in all the usual protests and demonstrations. In 1912 she
started writing what amounted to a sex-advice column for the New York Call, dubbed “What Every Girl Should Know.” The overriding theme of her columns was the importance of contraception. More
Someone attending the dinner was able to capture over two minutes of Palin's inspiring speech.
Additional photos of the event can be viewed here.
Breitbart also published an article on Palin's remarks in which author William Bigelow noted the following:
"In the battle for the culture of life, the dauntless, fearless Palin is a leading warrior."
In response to a comment from Tucker Carlson during an interview with Greta Van Susteren, Palin supporters set Twitter "on fire" with #SarahPalinDoes. As usual, Twitchy did a great job in featuring some of the best tweets here.
Mr. Carlson, in his infinite wisdom (or his complete ineptness) uttered, during Van Susteren's interview, that he was "not clear what Sarah Palin does". In my opinion, Carlson is simply part of the main stream (lame stream) media whose agenda is to tear down the most powerful and influential voice for grassroots Conservatives. I'm going to go out on and limb and guess that Mr. Carlson is not familiar with the following: It is often said in Alaska that “the Alaskan political landscape is littered with the bodies of those who underestimated Sarah Palin.”
In response to tweets with hashtag #SarahPalinDoes, Sarah Palin tweeted the following message of thanks:
#SarahPalinDoes appreciate support from those who are in it for a reason, not a season.
Earlier today a New York state judge blocked Mayor Bloomberg's decision to ban the sale of sugary drinks over 16 ounces. Judge Milton Tingling cited the law as "fraught with arbitrary and capricious consequences." Tony Lee over at Brietbart News has an excellent article with more of the details.
In response to this decision, Sarah Palin tweeted the following:
Victory in NYC for liberty-loving soda drinkers. To politicians with too
much time on their hands we say: Govt, stay out of my refrigerator!
Sarah Palin knows the importance of winning the culture war and in a new book is taking on the subject of Christmas.
According to The Washington Post, “A Happy Holiday IS a Merry Christmas" is due to be released by HarperCollins in November.
A search on Amazon does not yield any results yet; however, as soon as a cover is released we'll be sure to share this information with our readers.
From The Washington Post:
NEW YORK — Sarah Palin has a new book coming, this time about Christmas.
The former Republican vice presidential candidate and Alaska
governor has a deal with HarperCollins for “A Happy Holiday IS a Merry
Christmas,” scheduled for November. HarperCollins announced Monday that
the book will criticize the “over-commercialism” and “homogenization” of
Christmas and call for a renewed emphasis on the religious importance.
“Amidst the fragility of this politically correct era, it is imperative
that we stand up for our beliefs before the element of faith in a
glorious and traditional holiday like Christmas is marginalized and
ignored,” Palin said in a statement released through her publisher.
“This will be a fun, festive, thought provoking book, which will
encourage all to see what is possible when we unite in defense of our
faith and ignore the politically correct Scrooges who would rather take
Christ out of Christmas.” More
