Original article: Your daily Palin

You left out right wing radical christian nut job

If Palin dares to run for president in 2012, I guarantee Hilliary will run again. That is an election competition I would love to see.

@ ChrisVH

"In Vain" could also mean speaking on God's behalf. No one on this earth has the right to speak on God's behalf. People who do so are called false prophets in the bible. I fear those who follow self-appointed religious leaders such at Ms. Porter, Pat Robinson, Jerry Fallwell, and James Dobson are following them straight to hell. I guess I will see them there since I voted for Obama as well. :)

How Obama will win Ohio?

By moderate Rebublicans like my husband and I who are fed up with the vile and disgusting tatics AND LIES of the GOP and of the "Christian" Right Wing that has infiltrated and infected the party like a bad case of herpes. Christian: Now that is a word that is used waaaayyy too loosely in today's society.

We voted for Obama (via absentee ballot)a few days ago. I just got done watching his interview on the Rachel Maddow show and I was VERY impressed with Obama's responses to Rachel's questions. I loved how he said he didn't agree with the Right Wing's ideology (hint: right wing Christian nut jobs - like Sarah Palin, maybe???). I also love how he wouldn't diss the Republican party as a whole. He understands that doing so would not further any of the goals he wants to achieve if he (hopefully) is elected president. He refuses to lower himself down into the gutter where the GOP is bathing in their own blood and guts as they eat their young like the cannibals they are.

And one other thing: Has it occured to anyone that maybe Obama's alleged "ties" to the "radicals" were a result of a quest for knowledge and opinions from people who have a different view of American and its current foreign policies under the Republican reign? It's refreshing to know that he doesn't think like the typical white Christian male (Bush) that believes American can do no wrong. America has a lot of serious flaws that need addressed and fixed. Some of them have been rearing their ugly heads at the McCain/Palin rallies. I can proudly say, coming from a small town of 1,000 in central Ohio, that I broke free from the small-minded, racial bigotry that I was taught growing up. Any one of those idiots spewing hate-filled comments could be any member of my family. My family is ready to disown me over this election but I don't care. I am taking a stand for what is right and what is good. I am proud to be a Buckeye. But I am even more proud to be an Obama Voter!!

The Towel Incident and the Clothing Buying Spree

is from a Newsweek article that has been written. I believe I read the article regarding this on Huffingtonpost.com. It turns out she spent MORE than 150k. Some rich person said /he/she would pay for her clothes. She ended up spending a ton of money not only on her but her family too. The person who footed the bill was shocked as to how much she spent. Link to article is below:

She is such an embarrasment to all women. I hope she never comes back. There are way too many soundbites and videos that could be used against in her a campaign.

In my opinion:

"A pardon is an admission of guilt," noted Donald Kettl, a political science professor at the University of Pennsylvania. Bush has argued for years that his interrogation program was perfectly legal. With a pardon, Kettl said, Bush is essentially saying, "Gee, maybe we did not do the right thing."

He WOULD be admitting to the whole world that he is guilty along with his thugs. Does her really want to do that? Either way, I hope they do investigate and show the world whatever they find.

@ kuhnigget

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! Now can we do an article on why non-believers fear Religion? Can I start with how they love to kill those who do not believe what they believe? They start endless wars over ancient books that are not only ridiculous but barbaric?

I personally don't want to go back to the Dark Ages but there are many who would love nothing more.

Why don't people just worry about what goes on in their house and QUIT WORRYING ABOUT WHAT GOES ON IN THEIR NEIGHBOR'S!!!

Oh, and lets be honest here. The only reason why Christians want everyone else to be like them is they are FEARFUL of SINNING. If they can get rid of porn, gays, prostitution, strip clubs, etc., then the temptation to engage in homosexuality, viewing porn, paying for sex and/or a lap dance would greatly diminish. So this is not about their fears for the future of the American Family. It's their fear of sinning. This is the same reason why the women in the Middle East have to wear Burkas. Out of sight, out of mind.
