Text of Sarah Palin's Gridiron Dinner speech
American Thinker Political Correspondent Rich Baehr sends along a link to the text of Sarah Palin's speech on Saturday to the prestigious Gridiron Club.
Looks like no video will be forthcoming but this is the next best thing. It comes to us via the website To the Point.
An excerpt that I didn't see in any media reports of the speech:
It's a privilege to be here tonight at the Washington DC Barnes & Noble. Tonight, I'll be reading excerpts from my new book. Perhaps you've heard of it? "Going Rogue."
Yukon wasn't sure if I'd go with that title and somebody suggested I follow the East Coast self-help trend and go with, "How To Look Like A Million Bucks...For Only 150 Grand."
Todd liked, "The Audacity of North Slope." [She nods to him as he's at the head table]
Hey, I considered not having a title at all. I've said it before, but you Beltway types just don't seem to get it. You don't need a title to make an impact. But anyway, let's get started.
Truth and humor - a potent combination.
