The Lord has anointed Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin has been despised by her opponents, die-hard Democrat fans and detractors. They considered her as a narrow-minded and know-nothing person, weak, poor, a liar and with no experience. This is unfair unto the eyes of God. Did you know that the Almighty God has chosen and called Sarah Palin from His flocks to be the running mate of John McCain? God called her to confound the wise, to confound the things and those people who considered themselves mighty, and base things of the world, and things which are despised, and things which are not, yea to bring to nought things that are. (I Corinthians 1:26-28).

Palin who left won't come home

In a few weeks Governor Palin will return to Alaska. Fans, however, should not expect to receive the same old person. What we will get is a brainwashed Bush Republican in the shadow of John McCain, the innocence gone; transparency in government forever vanished. What we will get back is more war-mongering, closed doors, secret mail accounts, public smear tactics like we see from Megan what's-her-name and her "truth squad" baloney of absolute political desperation.

Alaska has been invaded, the party has blown a bundle and Palin will have to pay for her ride. Alaska will prevail, as always. But the honeymoon is over. We have learned our governor lies a lot. The faith is shattered. We deserve better than what we are going to get.

1. Anointed?

Oh wow

[TACstrat]

2. I'm definitely "confounded" by her.

[lumpy]

3. I hope to God that the majority of Alaskans have more common

sense than Ron Tomines has. I find it difficult these days to even admit that I was a sourdough born of homesteaders in that great state.

4. Don't worry, Lumpy, we do.

The second letter much more accurately represents how most of the people I know, at least, see Palin these days. The luster has definitely been scuffed up.
