Some of Palin's remarks that I quoted earlier....

...our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] 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.
...
"I think God's will has to be done in unifying people and companies to get that gas line built."

ABC tonight released an early transcript of parts of an interview with Palin...

GIBSON: You said recently, in your old church, "Our national leaders are sending U.S. soldiers on a task that is from God." Are we fighting a holy war?

PALIN: You know, I don't know if that was my exact quote.

GIBSON: Exact words.

PALIN: But the reference there is a repeat of Abraham Lincoln's words when he said -- first, he suggested never presume to know what God's will is, and I would never presume to know God's will or to speak God's words.

Let me just break here and say hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Ok, continue....

...but what Abraham Lincoln had said, and that's a repeat in my comments, was let us not pray that God is on our side in a war or any other time, but let us pray that we are on God's side.

That's what that comment was all about, Charlie. //

GIBSON: I take your point about Lincoln's words, but you went on and said, "There is a plan and it is God's plan."

PALIN: I believe that there is a plan for this world and that plan for this world is for good. I believe that there is great hope and great potential for every country to be able to live and be protected with inalienable rights that I believe are God-given, Charlie, and I believe that those are the rights to life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

That, in my world view, is a grand -- the grand plan.

GIBSON: But then are you sending your son on a task that is from God?

PALIN: I don't know if the task is from God, Charlie. What I know is that my son has made a decision. I am so proud of his independent and strong decision he has made, what he decided to do and serving for the right reasons and serving something greater than himself and not choosing a real easy path where he could be more comfortable and certainly safer.

Thou shalt tie thyself up in knots....

take Palin's answers with Charlie Gibson, and then listen to McCain's interview here:


then picture in your mind that there are people out there that will say "they hit it out of the park" with these answers and...whoa i just a felt a chill go down my spine.........

Just got done watching the first part of the interview, and holy fuck, now I just hope she doesn't become VP or President because if I have to hear her speak for any length of time, I'll jam pencils into my ears. I'm not talking about the way she bends and contorts around the questions but her fucking voice. At least Dubya is sorta entertaining when he talks.

Here's a good article in Time Magazine outlining the investigation into "trooper-gate" - Palin's possibly unethical firing of cops based on a family divorce rather than job performance.
