Sarah Palin makes us long for the days of Larry Craig when "GOP" meant that the worst the hypocritical Grand and Gay Old Party could do was offer us Senators who innocently cruise airport bathrooms for blowjobs. Oh, but those were the good old days...
Tongues are wagging as the Wall Street Journal scoops the low-down on Sarah Palin’s penchant for speaking in tongues. Click on the above youtube video for a very special glimpse into what the fundamental future of this nation might look like with a McCain/Palin presidency.
Here is an excerpt from the WSJ article:
"At the Pentecostal church where Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin worshipped for more than two decades, congregants speak in tongues and are part of a faith that believes humanity is in its "end times" -- the days preceding a world-ending cataclysm bringing Christian redemption and the second coming of Jesus.
The Rev. Ed Kalnins, pastor of the Pentecostal church, Wasilla Assembly of God, says he has told church members that God put President George W. Bush in office...At Mr. Kalnins's invitation, Gov. Palin appeared on stage in June before a youth group at Wassila Assembly of God, where she reminisced fondly about getting baptized there, before asking the young people to pray for a proposed natural-gas pipeline in Alaska ..."

I always hate to bring religion into politics, but when a politician belongs to a faith where they believe the will of God so strongly determines a government's course of action, then religion BECOMES a part of politics and becomes fair game.
Another way to put it is, if my religious faith totally governs my actions while I'm acting as a public servant, then the public would have a right to question me at length about my religious beliefs. And, yes, the public would have a right to reject me because of my faith.
CC,
Indeed, so much for separation of church and state. Whenever religion is introduced into public policy, it is for personal and political gain.
But here is red flag, that demonstrates the ultimate sleazy and manipulative side of Miz Sarah:
"At Mr. Kalnins's invitation, Gov. Palin appeared on stage in June before a youth group at Wassila Assembly of God, where she reminisced fondly about getting baptized there, before asking the young people to pray for a proposed natural-gas pipeline in Alaska ...."
BEFORE ASKING THE YOUNG PEOPLE TO PRAY FOR A PROPOSED NATURAL PIPELINE IN ALASKA...."
Oh, what a combustible mix, Miz Sarah's holy roller camp and her BP overlords...I shudder to think.
