It's funny how Al Qaeda and the Muslim extremists think their mission is the "will of God" as well, but we call them terrorists extremists........

Charlie Gibson is getting fat. Palin was very elusive during that interview, almost scripted. Not surprised.

Wow, what a huge scandal! She actually sounds very Presidential. This famous speech is but a drop in the bucket of politicians(D&R) calling on The Almighty to bless our military and mission:
My Fellow Americans:
Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our Allies were crossing the Channel in another and greater operation. It has come to pass with success thus far.
And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join with me in prayer:
Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity.
Lead them straight and true; give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith.
They will need Thy blessings. Their road will be long and hard. For the enemy is strong. He may hurl back our forces. Success may not come with rushing speed, but we shall return again and again; and we know that by Thy grace, and by the righteousness of our cause, our sons will triumph.
They will be sore tried, by night and by day, without rest -- until the victory is won. The darkness will be rent by noise and flame. Men's souls will be shaken with the violences of war.
For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace. They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate. They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and goodwill among all Thy people. They yearn but for the end of battle, for their return to the haven of home.
Some will never return. Embrace these, Father, and receive them, Thy heroic servants, into Thy kingdom.
And for us at home -- fathers, mothers, children, wives, sisters, and brothers of brave men overseas, whose thoughts and prayers are ever with them -- help us, Almighty God, to rededicate ourselves in renewed faith in Thee in this hour of great sacrifice.
Many people have urged that I call the nation into a single day of special prayer. But because the road is long and the desire is great, I ask that our people devote themselves in a continuance of prayer. As we rise to each new day, and again when each day is spent, let words of prayer be on our lips, invoking Thy help to our efforts.
Give us strength, too -- strength in our daily tasks, to redouble the contributions we make in the physical and the material support of our armed forces.
And let our hearts be stout, to wait out the long travail, to bear sorrows that may come, to impart our courage unto our sons wheresoever they may be.
And, O Lord, give us faith. Give us faith in Thee; faith in our sons; faith in each other; faith in our united crusade. Let not the keeness of our spirit ever be dulled. Let not the impacts of temporary events, of temporal matters of but fleeting moment -- let not these deter us in our unconquerable purpose.
With Thy blessing, we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy. Help us to conquer the apostles of greed and racial arrogances. Lead us to the saving of our country, and with our sister nations into a world unity that will spell a sure peace -- a peace invulnerable to the schemings of unworthy men. And a peace that will let all of men live in freedom, reaping the just rewards of their honest toil.
Thy will be done, Almighty God.
Amen.

Franklin D. Roosevelt - June 6, 1944Great post, it really frames the desperation of the obama supporters in correct light. Kind of like posting a link to the state of Alaska's appropriation requests, pointless. Every states appropriation lists are going to be huge, any one who would be convinced by such nonsense is not smart enough to check a box, and therefor are unable to vote. |

Every states appropriation lists are going to be huge, any one who would be convinced by such nonsense is not smart enough to check a box, and therefor are unable to vote. Are you really trying to equate Palin's "speech" in front of a megachurch... where she half-heartedly touches on the sacrifices of troops in Iraq & the need for a gas pipeline --- with Roosevelt's speech about D-Day??? Should we also follow your lead - that the Jerry Springer Show & "Cops" are jockeying for the title of Apex of human culture? Really? Have you debased your mind & beliefs so much that you honestly think this? Part 1: Part2: (Yes... very symbolic of the Roosevelt D-Day speech) I especially liked the inclusion of "RED HEADED Sasquatch for JESUS!!!" part... It spoke directly to the honor and sacrifice for our troops. |

Dude, come on...
Palan is a social conservative, which is often anti-constitution. Of course I'm going to disagree with her.
I don't even want to take the time to watch, state of the nations is about to start.
As to FDR, how do you think I feel about anyone or anything that would subvert the SCOTUS.
I'm just pointing the inconsistency of the previous argument with regards to religious rhetoric.
I made a vow earlier not to bash mccain until the blatant unconstitutional socialist is put down, and while I've slipped occasionally, I need to just close my eyes when the repubs type and close my ears when the speak.
You know Obama's views on constitutional interpretation, I can not condone his support.

You know Obama's views on constitutional interpretation, I can not condone his support. While it appears you're trying to back yourself away from the precipice, you didn't improve (or prove) your original argument at all. How is a solemn speech about an invasion given to the nation... where the speech giver knew he was sending thousands (and by pre-invasion forecasts many tens of thousands) of soldiers under his command - to their deaths*** ---- in any way similar to the cavalier attitude and comments by a then governor speaking in front of teens at a MegaChurch Jesus Camp? Does the fact we both converse in English mean we are both (simultaneously) Shakespeare and John Simon Ritchie? ***This completely disregards the cavalier attitude of this administration & other Republicans to the deaths in Iraq to many more soldiers than died on D-Day. How do statements like "Bring 'em On" and "Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran..." fit into your algorithm when determining the real world repercussions vs. your hypothesis on strict adherence to the constitution? Seriously. I'd like to understand how someone could justify forsaking almost every other American tenet, and rationalize how a fractional difference in an action he views as unconstitutional (giving to the people vs. giving to the corporations) merits supporting the candidate(s) that are proven to be against those American tenets & will be equally - if not more - "unconstitutional" in the end. |

Are you outraged at this as well? To be honest, I don't think Palin is qualified but I don't give a shit because, like HawkStock, I'll be caravaning Republican voters to the booth on election day because of the horrible alternative. |

Who the hell cares? She is simply a distraction, and she's not running for president. McCain is. She is a tactic, not a VP. If there was ever any chance at having a national dialogue about substantive issues, it went completely out the window with the hockeymom pageant honey being nominated out of nowhere. This is all we'll be talking about now. Personal shit.

You're correct, she was picked for tactical reasons. Most, if not all VP candidates, are chosen for tactical reasons. Biden was selected to give foreign policy credibility to Obama and to shore up white, working class voters in swing states(who Obama did poorly with in the primary). It is the Obama campaign's and the media's fault that were talking about the personal stuff. They don't have much policy dirt to dig up so they use personal stuff or nothingness like the "God's task" comment or her membership with the AIP(proven false of course). Which Bush Doctrine was Gibson refering to in his question? There's more than one. |

If I were a Nazi in power, and I governed by Nazi believes (my backbone relief), you'd proably have a problem with as you should. This lady has basically stated that the war in the Middle East is a holy war. Yes, she is only the VP, but let's be honest: JM is not young, and there's a small chance that Palin could become our leader. Do I want her to consult the Bible for her decisions? This goes beyond personal issues. Sometimes personal issues can bleed over to political beliefs. |
