>> May all the PDS heads explode.

Dang it you beat me to it.

She is not the second coming.

You should really read the Book of Esther.

Dang it you beat me to it.

Wow. Finally I was in first. I know what it feels like.

Will God turn His back on America in response to our lack of faith . . . will He send us a deliverer who can restore this country’s greatness . . . or will He give us a choice: Sarah or more Obama. My money is on the choice, and I pray daily that we will choose wisely.

Look, I found your first post about Palin on FR, back in 2009:

Palin has no chance. Outside of FR, she is a joke, quit the governorship, and has too little experience. I like her and think there is a role for her, but she is not going to be president in 2012 or probably ever.

I like Pence. If he is interested, it will be interesting to see how he plays nationally without the name recognition.

DeMint would be ideal, but has no charisma. Unfortunatley, in a superficial world, that puts a nail in the coffin.

McDonnell ran a great campaign, but let’s see if he produces any results before annointing him. Virginia is in quite a mess and McDonnell still hasn’t talked about cutting spending.

I don’t know much about Thune other than that he is good looking and has good hair. Unfortunately, that is a qualifier.

I get exactly what you’re saying, time4good.

The passage in Esther says: “And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”

It is natural verse to cite when thinking of a woman assuming a role in the leadership of a nation.

It has nothing to do with Sarah wanting to go to war with Iran to save the Jews.

Esther is a prominent example in the bible of a woman leader. If Sarah becomes the first female US President, she would of course be compared to Esther and to Debra.

[FourPeas]

Perchance do you mean Deborah?

[garjog]

Her too.

Post #18 sums it up well wolfman. Not that Palin is the second coming, but many of us Christians believe that we have a “calling” to do something, and that God has a plan for us if we chose to follow it. And I think the tendency to look back on history for examples is normal, and gives a person hope. Whether it be an Old Testament example or like I keep reminding myself - Reagan after Carter!

What is not to like?
* Pro-Life
* Fiscal Conservative
* Pro-business/free market
* Tough on Crime
* Pro-gun - "plenty of room for all God's animals, next to the mashed potatoes"
* Strong Energy stance
* Strong environment stance
* Free-Trade advocate
* Downsize government
* Free market / Open competition for health care
* No amnesty for illegal aliens
* Principled with strong conviction in her view of values
I am sure there are more...but what is not to like about a person with these views.
Contrast that with Mitt Romney who believes that open sodomy should be condoned by our military, who thinks it is ok to kill babies etc etc.

Thanks for exposing Wolfman as nothing more than a Palin basher.
