Last Sunday, Sarah Palin stood before the huge crowd at the 2014 National Rifle Association annual meeting and condemned liberals for coddling terrorists. She loaded her speech with religious metaphors, claiming that true leaders would put "the fear of God in our enemies." She said, "They obviously have information on plots to carry out jihad. Oh, but you can't offend them, can't make them feel uncomfortable, not even a smidgen. Well, if I were in charge, they would know that waterboarding is how we baptize terrorists."
Palin's invocation of forced baptism shocked both conservatives and liberals, inspiring few defenders. Christian commentators, in particular, focused on her link between torture and baptism.
On Wednesday, the National Religious Campaign against Torture released a powerful condemnation of the speech. To Palin, the organization's executive director wrote, "Your statements play into a false narrative conveying that somehow, the conflict between the United States and the terrorist cells is a conflict between Christianity and Islam, or Islam and 'the West.'"(continued)

Hours later he was buried in the local cemetery, but on the next day, the Muslims took his body and dragged it through the streets and mutilated him. Most bizarrely they did this three times a day, in a very demonic and diabolical ritual.
Wasn’t McVeigh an atheist?
Someone send Professor Perry a quarter so he can buy a sense of humor.
I think McVeigh was an atheist, but deep thinkers such as Whoopi will not let facts get in the way of scoring cheap political points.
I believe the guy is a homo...but he’s not “man enough” to come out of the closet completely.
Riiiiight. Go Sarah.
For lefties Palin “goes too far” when she lives another day.
No, she didn’t even START, as far as I’m concerned.
She went too far - only if she wants to be POTUS someday. If she wants to be a talk show host and celebrity figure (ala Rush or Ann Coulter), she is doing it right.
And that screechy voice...
This is the type of vehicle to give losers like this some notoriety. That’s all it is.
Whoa, some leftist faggot released a powerful condemnation, did he? What a joke.
And once again she will be proven correct.
I am waiting for the condemnation of people who have really gone too far, such as most MSNBC talking heads, and a majority at ABC, NBC, CNN, etc.

She’s not just living rent-free in their heads, she has a 10 year lease!
Oh, wow! You hit the trifecta, today :)
You managed to get the “she went too far”, “talk show host meme” AND the screechy voice slams all in one post. I am so impressed...not.
David M. Perry is an associate professor of history at Dominican University in Illinois. He has also written for CNN.com and The Chronicle of Higher Education.
Do I have to come out and say it?
I am so glad that Sarah is true and is still Sarah. She reminds me of the President Truman quote I have in my signature: " I never did give anyone hell. I just told the truth and they thought it was hell."
Libs refuse to admit waterboarding saves lives!!
Poor little Marxist got his panties bunched. GO Sarah GO!
Pray America wakes up
