I am really just stunned by this. It is amazing that people are so scared of this woman that they are literally grasping at anything that provides even the slightest hope of destroying her.
Glenn Beck puts it very well on his CNN.com Commentary: The Sarah Palin smear-fest:
“Sarah Palin believes God told her to go to war with Iraq!”
There has been some hard-core journalistic malpractice on this one. The Associated Press ran this headline about a speech she gave at her church: “Palin: Iraq war ‘a task that is from God’”
In the story, they omit the first part of the sentence they’re quoting along with the entire previous sentence for good measure.
Here are her actual words: “Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending them out on a task that is from God. That’s what we have to make sure that we’re praying for, that there is a plan and that that plan is God’s plan.”
Palin is clearly praying that we’re doing the right thing in Iraq, something sensible for an introspective woman of faith concerned about the lives of our troops to do. She’s not saying that she just received a text message from heaven’s BlackBerry ordering her to launch missiles. Sorry to disappoint you.
And for those of you who think politicians asking God for guidance is offensive, might I remind you of this famous politician’s prayer:
“Give me the wisdom to do what is right and just. And make me an instrument of your will.” –Barack Obama

God’s plan of redemption is and always has been to put down evil. Some wave their finger at God and ask “How can you let these things happen?” I believe he looks on us and says “How can YOU let these things happen?”

Shockingly her religious holy war reference isn’t what’s so scary. I believe the scariest part of this interview was in part one where she displays a complete ambivalence to very important things like ATTACKING RUSSIA.Attacking Russia would be the end of the USA. If you care at all about this country’s future you will not vote for her.

It scares me that Palin was the most qualified woman the Republicans could find. Good looking and aggressive to hide the low grade of intelligence.Worse is that lots of women think she is great. Just because she is a woman?Please, wake up and use the brains you have.
