Sarah Palin had to deal with a heckler while she was speaking to a huge crowd in Florida earlier today. Read about it below and see a video of her remarks to the heckler.
Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin is drawing huge crowds everywhere she goes. The crowds love her. She’s a strong woman we can relate to. She has the fearlessness, integrity and patriotism that we, as Americans, relate with BEING American.
She also knows how to shut down a heckler apparently. When she was at a campaign stop in Florida earlier today she had the opportunity to do just that. A man who was close to the stage was hurling insults at her as she spoke. Finally, she turned to him and said:
“Bless your heart sir, my son is in Iraq fighting for your right to protest.”
Bless your heart, indeed!!
The crowd went wild and roared their approval.
HOOAH!!!!

I wonder how Gov. Palin would have reacted if the man had been a gold-star parent and had replied to her, “Well ma’m, my son/daughter died in Iraq.”
Well, Chris Jordan, being the great lady that she is, I’m sure Gov. Palin would have offered her condolences to the grieving father.
She would have shared her pride in a bravery of an american son giving his life to bring freedom to the Iraqis, who are literally begging us to stay and help them.
She would have thanked him (and his father) for his sacrifice, and she would have truly meant it with all her heart.
Well said, TracyLynn!
