Sarah Palin. Sarah. The woman is now a celebrity known by her first name only like - well ... you fill it in. John McCain is beaming at their every appearance, like a kid with a brand new toy.
There is no denying her charm and charisma, just observe the folks falling at her feet in Rapture! There is also no denying her ruthlessness, cunning and political acumen. No "Hockey Mom" wakes up Governor of a State by accident, there is no such thing as, "Opps, how did that happen?"
It amazes me that people are so attracted to the next "new" thing with nary a thought in their heads, like birds pecking at a shinny object. Do they even hear the words that this woman says? I get that folks who inhabit the far Right would feel simpatico with her – but how could anyone else even tolerate listening to that flat toned voice, knowing what words will pour forth? It is like water torture – drip, drip drip - in your mind. Moreover, there are the lies she spews forth, need I even talk about the lies? Or do we assume, if her lips are moving she is lying?
I have nothing against Christian Fundamentalists, however, it is scary to hear from a politician, Governor, proposed Vice President's mouth, that they believe that God is giving them the right to implement their agenda. That is crossing the line. A person’s religious faith does not belong in Government. It makes me crazy when I hear people say this is a "Christian" Country. This country does not have a national religion, or a religious "test". Sarah Palin is dangerous for our Country for this reason. It is appears she will base every decision on what "God" tells her. Hmmm, I am sorry but that is just another way of never taking any responsibility for your actions or decisions. This Palin woman will be as much as a warmonger as Bush and McCain if not more. Think about it. She probably wants to "Free" the Holy Land for Christians! After all God will have told her to...
