Sarah Palin Madness Republican Goddess or False Prophet
Erick Erickson writes this on the Redstate website:

“…The reaction people have to Sarah Palin is very much the reaction many people have to Jesus — both offend and disgust the secular values of some and with others failing to embrace either sends you straight to hell.”
We know that far right conservatives are usually fundamentalist Christians, but you can’t put Sarah Palin in the category of apostle. You can’t place Jesus and Palin together in an article dealing with politics. Conservatives mix politics and religion and the result is heresy. I resent this juxtaposition.
“…I’ve also added repeated …that with Obama, most people are coming away disappointed in that who he actually is quite a bit different from the hopey-changey vessel of good tidings people assumed he was. With Palin, a lot of people got it right — she’s a solid Christian, a real agent of change, a threat to the secular left and feminist movement because she can carry a baby and think at the same time, etc. That’s the benefit of being an honest Alaskan instead of a Manchurian candidate.”
I’m not disappointed in Obama. It’s no surprise that he can’t get anything done. Few presidents can. He tried, and that’s all you can ask for. Moreover, he was thwarted by Republicans. The party of NO! is to blame for his policy failures.
“Unfortunately, given the nature of some of the people who are going to read this, I have to stop here and say I’m a big Palin fan. I like her a lot. I’d gladly support her. I want her in federal office of some kind. And I think John McCain could have picked no finer person to be his running mate. Frankly, the results of 2008 might have been different had the positions been reversed.”
Nobody hates Palin. She’s just not qualified to hold federal office. It was irresponsible for McCain to put her in a position where she could have ended up as president. We witnessed the amount of damage an incompetent president can cause during the time of the Bush administration. That lesson has been learned, but not by Palin supporters. Conservatives may have preferred Palin to McCain, but the results would have been the same. Republicans had to pay for the disaster they brought about.
For the life of me I don’t understand the Palin worship. How can you possibly refer to Palin as an “agent of change”? It takes a special degree of derangement to come up with that line. What we need right now are solutions and action. Palin’s only talent is repeating time worn republican slogans that Bush proved that if followed are a sure path to disaster.
Find another goddess to worship. This one will only disappoint you in the end.
