A short but very telling commentary of the current life that is Ken "Worst GOP Defeat Ever" Blackwell:
Where's Ken Blackwell?
The 2006 Republican gubernatorial candidate and former secretary of state is not with the Ohio Republican delegation in any capacity, according to the party's communications director, John McClelland.
When asked if Blackwell was invited to join his own state party's delegation, McClelland said he didn't know.
"I have nothing to do with Ken Blackwell," McClelland said.
Ouch!
Is Palin's pastor any better than Obama's ex-pastor?
Clips from a July 2008 sermon given by Palin's pastor.
"What if...right now, God chose to respond to our nation, God chose to respond to our moral slippage, our persistent moral slippage? ....What if God responded to our pervasive, our pervasive personal and national pride? What if God responded to our persistent self-absorption? That in any circumstance and any situation we'll say 'me-first', no matter what it does to our family, no matter what it does to our friends, no matter what it does to our community? .......It's so very possible that God, instead of responding by granting spiritual renewal and sustained prosperity, He could just as easily...it's conceivable that He could just as easily, for example, raise up a revived, prosperous and powerful Communist Russia with a web of alliances across the Middle East. And our gas pumps would go dry. The dollar would collapse. And the markets would crash. And do not think that God has ever guaranteed it would not. And don't think that God would not. If He was willing to raise up the Chaldeans in ancient Israel, He's willing to go to any extreme. ... That could happen, and it could be God's doing. "
So I'm confused- people should NOT be self-absorbed and care more about themselves than their family? I thought the Republicans believe in family first, and that's what I think this sermon says, but I think Sarah Palin missed this particular sermon since she was so busy campaigning, so we can't hold her responsible for not knowing that family comes first. I'm confused about the rest of the sermon though. I thought the Republicans decided that America is God's chosen land.......and now God is an angry extremist who may help out the communists and wipe out America?
