Saint Sarah To white evangelical women, Sarah Palin is a modern-day prophet, preaching God, flag, and familywhile remaking the religious right in her own image.
Another memoirist might prefer to keep such matters private, but Sarah Palin is not another memoirist. In Going Rogue: An American Life, Palin describes, perhaps for the first time in the history of political autobiography, a furtive trip to an out-of-state drugstore to obtain a do-it-yourself pregnancy test. This was in the fall of 2007, when the 43-year-old mother of four was governor of Alaska and began to notice some peculiar yet familiar physical symptoms, like the smell of cigarettes making me feel more nauseated than usual. So, while on business in New Orleansat a time and in a place where her anonymity was still possiblePalin procured the kit. In the privacy of her hotel room, she followed the instructions on the...box. Slowly a pink image materialized on the stick.
Bill Pugliano Sarah Palin's pro-woman rallying cry is poised to transform the Christian right into a women's movement. View a photo gallery of how her following has become big business. Cult of Palin Holy geez!

It takes two to tango.
That’s my take on it. I’m in no way endorsing Huckabee, because I do have major differences with him. He’s still nowhere near a McCain level traitor to our cause.
As with any RINO, give them enough time and they'll give you enough reasons.
I disagree. I've asked the question “Do you believe Palin has been chosen by God to lead the US and the world at this specific point in time and history” only to get either (crickets) or non sequiter answers.
You need to take a hard look at the people surrounding you...and their beliefs.
Well, that’s the sign to back off so I will.
Yep it does.
However, over the last 4 months, I have been called
an Obama-Lover
A Socialist
A Romneyite
A Paulite
A Communist
And 90% of the time, it was when I complained about Palin’s unrelenting campaigning for McCain.
McCain ass kissing is an ugly sight. But you’re no ass kisser. You’d have to pull your head out first.
Go JD!! Retire that that tired old warhorse out to pasture before he can do any more damage to our once great Republic!
You are saying people in AZ are stupid.
To blame Palin if JD sinks is the same as
Obma Blaming Bush for every situatioin.
Another straw.
But there's also a fair bit of name calling tossed Palin supporters way, too. I know two wrongs don't make a right, but still... :)
I hate clowns.
” Thats my take on it. Im in no way endorsing Huckabee, because I do have major differences with him. Hes still nowhere near a McCain level traitor to our cause.”
McCain is 10 times more deadly than Huckabee. McCain has 4 terms as Senator, has made alliances with the devil in the Democrat Party, and moreover, he is a rich and powerful man.
Pure evil, pure danger to America.
Rintense, I think we do ourselves a disfavor by making some claims. We reduce the serious nature of some people’s actions by comparing them to others, or others to them.
McCain is without a doubt the worst example of selling out our cause I seen in my lifetime. I have documented only part of what he has been up to. A lot of it isn’t even available for us to source any longer. I am aware of some things I can’t even put on that list any longer, because the documents I have reviewed that reference them have since been pulled from the internet.
On the other hand, we have a guy that has done some things you don’t like, that give you pause, reason for concern. You have stated that if given time he would do just what McCain has. We don’t know that. His activity has caused you concern, but he hasn’t done those things. McCain actually has.
Are they on an equal footing? Of course not.
Teenagers and even adults make mistakes, poor choices, unacceptable acts. That doesn’t mean that each of them will turn into John McCain (if you will).
I have said I don’t want to support Huckabee. I mean it. I still can’t reasonably extrapolate out that he would be what McCain is.
McCain exceeds that level of broad unsupported assumption.
” To blame Palin if JD sinks is the same as
Obma Blaming Bush for every situatioin. “
You aren’t very bright, are you?
You may have that mixed up with the LDS thinking Mitt is Navuoo or Zion or you name it for their belief.
Thank you for your civilized debate.
I disagree with several of McCain’s views, not my fav. in the senate but will give credit where do.
I don’t speak for anyone but myself. My experience has been that when I criticize Palins ACTIONS, NOT OPINION, ACTIONS I get flamed. Also, when a Palin supporter posts something to me which is an obvious bare-faced lie, I tend to get unsettled as well ;-)
One is apt to get a trifle pissed at this after a while.
Thanks for a fairly civil exchange. I appreciate it.
McCain-Feingold, McCain-Kennedy, McCain-Lieberman, gang of 14, etc. McCain is a traitor. Yeah, and Benedict Arnold was a war hero before turning traitor too.
>> To blame Palin if JD sinks ...
The AZ voters should be wise to the circumstances, but no doubt votes will swing in McCain’s direction for the generous endorsement Palin donated to the McCain camp.
I’ve been a fan of JD long before this standoff. I hope AZ makes the right decision and selects JD for November.
just...wow. I'm so shocked that you say that but not one word to the Palin haters.
There is not one single Palin thread that doesn't deteriorate into this sort of ugliness.
What a waste. The rest of the conservative part of the nation likes Palin..all but this forum.
