What's Your Reaction?

Sarah Palin sat down with Fox News' Greta van Susteren to discuss the 2008 campaign and her political future. The wide-ranging interview covered such familiar topics as the $150,000 spent on Palin's wardrobe for the campaign, as well as the report that she was unable to name all the countries in North America and did not understand that Africa is a continent rather than a nation. Palin denied any knowledge of the RNC's extravagant clothing bills, going so far as to say that she's never set foot in a Neiman Marcus (one of the upscale stores where the RNC racked up a $75,000 bill). Palin also denied the report that she was unaware Africa is a continent.

The governor also lashed out at bloggers "sitting in their parents' basement, wearing their pajamas" for some of the questions that were raised about her record and credibility. She was particularly incensed at the questions that were floated about whether or not she was the mother of her youngest son, Trig.

Palin refused to say whether she was planning a run for the White House in 2012, but the devoutly faithful governor said she would wait for a sign from God, and that she is confident God would show the way to the White House.

Faith is a very big part of my life. And putting my life in my creator's hands - this is what I always do. I'm like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I'm like, don't let me miss the open door. Show me where the open door is. Even if it's cracked up a little bit, maybe I'll plow right on through that and maybe prematurely plow through it, but don't let me miss an open door. And if there is an open door in (20)12 or four years later, and if it is something that is going to be good for my family, for my state, for my nation, an opportunity for me, then I'll plow through that door.

It wasn't Harry Potter that she wanted banned. It was a children's book that discussed gay relationships.... typical how dishonest she is...

Guess she didn't want to listen when God showed her the last door---the one with an EXIT clearly marked above it...

Just what the country needs, a revisit of George Bush's "God told me to run for the presidency." We do not need Palin or anyone else who thinks that they get their instruction from God. God must be far to busy undoing the republican damage to encourage more of it.

Right...and if elected there is a slippery slope to...God told me to push the button to nuke The Iraq Such As...

Since when did hearing voices in your head not mean there was something wrong with your mind?

Someone posted this last night; it let me start my day off with a good laugh and I thought others might enjoy it: "Quotable: Sarah Palin's Top 10 Bloopers". The article is posted on http://politicalnewsconnection.com/ .

Hey, Sarah - God just showed you the way back to Alaska. Please stay there.

GOD, Please make sure the door is firmly bolted when Sarah Palin is around.

If this woman really wants God's help, perhaps he can grant her the ability to speak in complete sentences. Then perhaps He can give her the gift of intellectual curiousity, followed by humility and compassion. Honesty would be nice--also.

Now...Now...Now... people....stop complaining and judging and making fun of S. Palin.

God can hear you.....

After all, what do you think a 7 yr. old would say about school work.
Most of them don't even like to study very much anyway so any amount of
school work they have to do would seem like a mountain to them.

I hope God would answer her prayer---

AND BUILD A DOOR ON THE SIDE OF A CLIFF---SO SHE CAN PLOW THROUGH IT.

Oh....does God give you directions too......

I guess the new slogan for Alaska should read, -- Sarah Palin, only in Alaska (Senator Stevens too). You Betcha.
02:11 AM on 11/12/2008
Don't laugh too much.....S. Palin might just be Senator of Alaska one of these days....
