The wonders of Yarrow

Yarrow is an herb that can be found growing in the fields of the mountain ranges. It's a simple flower, but a woman's best friend. As we age, it's no secret women have "women troubles". A few cups of yarrow tea everyday can change your life for the better, you may even be able to dodge having surgery.
Do the research, google yarrow, and decide for yourself. For every ailment there is an herbal treatment.

Sarah Palin, wow!

Last night I watched the much anticipated speech of Gov. Sarah Palin, and was not disappointed. After all the vicious media attacks on her and her family she appeared on the platform with dignity and spoke as well as Barack Obama. It's not only what she said, it's what she did.

Palin has a record, she has made decisions, good ones by the way. She hates government waste and is not afraid to do something about it. We need someone like that on a national level.The so called snarky remarks, that's what the Vice Presidential candidate is supposed to do. Joe Biden did it, so did Al Gore and Dick Cheney. If she didn't go after Obama she would have been criticized as well. As far as experience goes, Rudy Giuliani said it best, "she had more executive experience than both of them, (Obama and Biden),on her first day as mayor, twice as much on her second day".
Ask Ed Pawlowski how easy it is to be mayor. Being mayor was such a task that he had to appoint others to do much of the job. Palin did no such thing, she made decisions and owned them.
As far as her teenage daughter is concerned, she should have been off limits. I was shocked by the news coverage of her pregnancy. The pit bull comment from her speech, I get that, no one messes with the kids of any mom worth her salt. More than that, her family owned up to the situation, and took a responsible path. It was refreshing to see.
My husband and I also preached abstinence to our children, along with a clear education of where babies come from, and the multiple choices there are in the birth control department. That's all any parent can do, I'm sure the Palin's did the same. Raise your hand if you are in your 40's and your parents had to get married. It happened enough that many of us can relate. Not trying to justify the situation, but things happen in life.

It's plain to see no matter what this woman does she will be verbally bruised by most of the main stream media. It's a double standard and I hope it back fires.
