PRAY AWAY THE GAY THEN RUN AWAY

Oh, dear, I guess this cements it. That's Palin above with her kill. She IS a monster and not a gay-lovin' one. From Newsminer:

"Gov. Sarah Palin’s church is promoting a conference that promises to convert gays into heterosexuals through the power of prayer.

“You’ll be encouraged by the power of God’s love and His desire to transform the lives of those impacted by homosexuality,” according to the insert in the bulletin of the Wasilla Bible Church, where Palin has worshipped for about six years.

Palin’s conservative Christian views have energized that part of the GOP electorate, which was lukewarm to John McCain’s candidacy before he named her as his vice presidential choice. She is staunchly anti-abortion, even in cases of rape and incest, and opposes gay marriage and spousal rights for gay couples."

I've been impacted by homosexuality and I found praying does nothing to help. HaHa.
This is NOT going to attract those gays that love Hillary. What a frightening mother this woman is. . .someone rape and impregnate her gay son fast!

As Andrew Sullivan points out, now Palin is in hiding:

"Ferraro was being interviewed within four days of being announced. Dan Quayle gave an interview one day after being selected. We are now on Day Nine for Palin and are told to expect another thirteen before she's ready. This is a pitbull with lipstick? More like a cowering chihuahua. . .

The sexism that implies that someone cannot stand up to reporters because she is a woman is appalling. This entire pick, of course, is incredibly sexist, and the handling of her in the last week the most sexist double standard I have ever seen in American politics. Can you imagine Hillary Clinton saying she wasn't going to answer questions for two weeks? Or Margaret Thatcher? Or Kay Bailey Hutchison? Or Elizabeth Dole? And none of these women were ever as close to global power as Sarah Palin now is. This is getting to Manchurian Candidate levels of creepiness. It's deeply sinister and slightly terrifying."

She follows in the right footsteps. Decide then hide. Typical.

TANGERINE DREAMS



Let the backlash begin. Everyone loved her last night. How's Maureen Dowd this morning, a little cranky?

Here's Andrew Sullivan:

"She started out a little dull and a little self-obsessed. But then she rallied - a little. "No Way. No How. No McCain" was a good line. And the Twin Cities analogy was a great little riff on Bush and McCain. But I have to say her speaking style, although much improved over even a year ago, is still a little flat. When she's passionate, she has little inflection. When she's quieter, she's a little drony. The "keep going" theme, moreover, was a little unnerving. A thinly veiled threat?"

Well if that was a threat it wasn't very 'thinly veiled'. And what sort of threat is that exactly? That she has a rifle in her pants? Well she does but not a real one.

Sullivan has nothing more to say though, "But actually, I don't have much more to say."

Except this: "The response on television from the crowd seems to have been everything Obama would have wanted. To my mind, however, it was an average performance, not a slashing attack on the Bush-Cheney record, nor a rousing rallying cry for Obama, nor a very insightful analysis of the country's problems. There was virtually nothing about foreign policy. She did what she had to do, tell her voters to back Obama. But she gave nothing more."

What a little bitch he is, what is she supposed to bleed all over the convention floor?

"So far, only Michelle Obama has rescued this convention from being dreary and distracted."


I agree it's been dreary, but isn't everything before the Messiah comes?
