“Apparently we need someone sinless and perfect like you.”

LOL!

Next you'll claim you're a “Christian”, right?

If you were a genuine Christian, you would not be making such an idiotic statement. For a Christian, the premise is that we all ALL, including the Pope with sin.

WOW! Using YOUR logic, that MUST mean that we ALL have a LICENSE to SIN and still be haughty about it, right? Like YOU? No. We are to be humble but recognize sin and hypocrisy for what it is and avoid it - not crow about it as YOU are doing to RATIONALIZE it away.

What we DO NEED are strong leaders that lead a moral life. A leader that takes FAMILY seriously. A leader that SHOWS this in their OWN FAMILY.

Titus 1:4-9

[4] To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.

[5] For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:

[6] If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.

[7] For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;

[8] But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;

[9] Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.

Hmm that is how Christ wants a leader in a church to measure up. Yes, I know Sarah isn't itching to be a Christian leader of any sort but I dare ask you, don't you want the SAME attributes in a SECULAR leader? I do!

I don't find Sarah Palin having the proper attributes as a leader. Nor is her family serve as a proper example to others. We already have enough dysfunctional families and “single moms”. Heck, Sarah Palin was almost a “single mom” but Tod and her eloped to camouflage the pregnancy. Yes, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Perhaps for you, Sarah Palin is the example of what is right that YOU look up to. You may LOWER your standards and be as arrogant and haughty as you wish, but do NOT even try to impose your lowly standards on me.
