Former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is wrapping up a three-hour book signing by thanking soldiers and shaking their hands at a North Carolina Army base.

Palin did not give a speech during her stop Monday at Fort Bragg, home of the Army's 82nd Airborne Division and Green Berets. The former Alaska governor promised to limit her enthusiasm after the Army worried Palin's appearance would prompt political grandstanding against President Barack Obama.

Army officials said more than 1,200 people lined up outside a Fort Bragg store where Palin signed copies of her new memoir. She waved and greeted some supporters before walking inside.

Several military personnel craned to take photos of Palin as she arrived.

Qualifications for President of US in 2012; anyone, but Obama. We can all sing koom bi ya around the 55 gallon drums filled with burning paper for heat. All because Lavon voted for Obama and his overspending addiction. Don't worry about the gas lines, no one will be able to afford cars or gas!

I'd bet hat Ft Bragg got their orders from "the one" to not let Palin speak since it might cause people to protest the "one". If you don't worship him, your voice will not be allowed to speak. Hmmmm..... The only consulation is that all the Lavon's in this country are going to live with the ones mess too. He's not going to help you either dude. I bet he'd turn on Pelosi in a second once he no longer needs her.
