Religious Left theologian Susan Thistlewaite at the Center for American Progress, writing for The Washington Post’s religion blog, has formulated the ultimate reason why Sarah Palin must not become Vice President. Belonging to an evangelical denomination, Palin must believe in the biblical injunction: “Wives be subject to your husbands, as unto the Lord.” How can she serve in office while submitting to her husband, the Rev Thistlewaite querulously wondered. Must not Mr. Palin also be politically vetted, since clearly he is the master of his submissive wife?
