Donation prompts hand-written Palin thank you

When Alaskan Mark Bowers made his donation to the Alaska Fund Trust, he didn't expect to receive a hand-written thank-you note from Gov. Sarah Palin. But the governor so appreciated his gift to the legal defense fund that she sent him a very personal note of thanks. Sarah's Web Brigade has the full story.

Have you made your donation yet? Remember that each frivolous, politically-motivated "ethics" complaint filed by her enemies costs Sarah and her family thousands of dollars in legal fees, yet the Alaska Fund Trust can accept no donation larger than $150. That means that to fight the below-the-belt tactics employed by Gov. Palin's enemies, large numbers of her supporters must respond with their relatively small donations to beat these low-lifes at their own game.

Each $150 contribution to the Alaska Fund Trust allows the Governor, her family and her colleagues to retire their legal debt at no cost to them or Alaskan taxpayers. More importantly, it sends a loud and clear message to her opponents that we cannot and will not let them get away with their practice of the politics by character assassination.

If you have not donated the maximum amount of $150 to the Alaska Fund Trust, I urge you to do so right now. You can make your contribution here.

Update: As our commenters have reported, Gov. Palin is apparently hand-writing thank-you notes to many, if not all, donors to the legal defense fund. All the more reason to make your $150 contribution now. Someday you can show your grandkids that the first woman to be elected president of the U.S. sent you a personal message "back when."
