Sarah Palin rolled into Arizona last week with message of government responsibility and Republican victories. She left with an extra pair of underwear.
Tough-on-immigration Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who appeared with Palin at a speaking engagement, apparently gave Palin his infamous “prisoner treatment,” which means a pair of pink underwear.
He boasted about it on his Twitter account:
The gift pokes fun at Arpaio’s reputation. He is known for his unconventional treatment of prisoners, and according to Talking Points Memo, sometimes makes convicts dress in all pink, which includes their underwear.

A new side bite, headline, lead story that holds no value but can be made into a huge deal in the media…just in time for the elections. And with so many who vote but do not do full independent research, who count on this stuff for their education…he may have just swayed a ton of “on the fence” votes, back to the the Dems.

Posted on October 26, 2010 at 5:06pmYou think you’ve been the one infiltrating The Blaze & that’s some big deal. I have infiltrated & participated in calls for Media Matters, Move On, Center for American Progress & other’s. We have millions more just like me that have done the same thing. We even get information from the White House that isn’t supposed to be known to the general public. I‘ve seen memo’s from very influential people in the progressive camp that expose so much about the President & his staff including the coordination with liberal mouthpieces. You put a message on the Blaze. Wow. Most of us are talking about other things right now because we’ve already gone & voted early. You think we are being led to the slaughter when we actually are just warming up. If you think this is the beginning & end come Nov. 2nd you have another thing coming. You come across as more of a militia tyoe of person when you send a message. Just so you know the Dems from what I’ve seen first hand are scared to the core about the Tea Party. One memo equated the Tea Party to the GOP as unions are to the progressive left, dems whatever they call themselves nowadays. They will never say it but they are in full out damage control. They know it‘s bad but they can’t figure how bad it will really be so they are making preparations for the worst. Obama knows it & that’s why the next major fight will be the lame duck session. Watch & see.

Posted on October 25, 2010 at 1:27pmIts an honor to get pink underwear from Arpaio. He is one of the bioggest fighter for the right in our country. He is personally being sued by Department of Justice right now because of his stand on illegal immigrants in Arizona.
There is a real battle in this state for the hearts and minds of conservatives. This is a swing state where we can defeat on of the worst Progressive radicals in the house; Grijalva.

Posted on October 25, 2010 at 3:04pmYes, I actually do donate to races because I think it matters, especially in a race that is neck & neck and all she is trying to get is $100,000 and it is against Raul Grijalva.You may recall he is the guy from AZ who gave professors tenure for developing GPS devices for illegal aliens.
I even donated to Angel and O’Donnell. I donate because this country has given me so much and these races really matter.
I say that if you are a TEA PARTY member who wanted O’Donnell & Angel you MUST donate to their campaigns, because they were elected in place of Republicans who were shoe-in winners. If they lose that seat it is because of YOU. So, if you do not back up your vote with a donation (as I have done) then I have no respect for the Tea Party. This is me donating to your candidates. You must do the same.
Stand by your convictions – give to these campaigns. It is not hard, you go to the website and type in your credit card number. Even if it is just $10 – DO IT!
