Cynthia, in the perfect America that you and Palin conjure up in your minds, would Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, atheist, agnostics, basically anyone that is non Christian be allowed to flourish or even participate in governmental policy making since none of them were “founding fathers”? Would “your” God be shoved down the throats of all the unwashed? Would laws be determined according to the Bible?

And why should Palin be God blessed for being able to use a fire arm?

Yes, I was born before the 60s. What is it that you miss? Perhaps segregated drinking fountians…hmmm.

Palin and you (as constituency) in power is some scary shit.

Suggesting that Governor Sarah Palin be euthanized is a very effective way of rebutting her beliefs and ideology.

The petty hypocrisy behind Palin’s wardrobe would be amusing if it were not so desperate. I’d love to see a single article written about the cost of Mrs. Clinton’s pant suits. Or the wardrobe of any other American liberal. Do such articles exist?

As for Palin’s intelligence, she’s quite sharp. On the other hand, utter stupidity was most often displayed from Democrat v-p nominee Senator Joe Biden (and occasionally from Senator Barack Obama himself). So prone to mindless statements, Biden has been muzzled for several weeks now. Yet, in a manner that defines the word “projection,” it is the conservative who gets smeared for intelligence failures because she failed trivia questions.

The same people whose understanding of events is led strictly by emotion have the gall to criticize the intelligence of others. And what is the evidence? Hatchet-job interviews conducted with the sole intent of making Palin look bad.

You are free to dislike Palin, but this list is an embarrassing justification for it.

Cynthia, Lincoln was not one of our founding fathers.

Yes, Obama has made some mistakes. You can easily find them on factcheck.org – however, Obama’s mistakes are not nearly as bad as McCain’s.

Let me ask everyone a question. Are you happy living under the facist regime we presently have in the US?

Be nice. What side of the bed did you get out on today??

And for the record, Sarah at least doesn’t seem to dislike Pitt bulls.

I don’t know what school you went to but obviously you only got part of the story.

The founding fathers trusted in God to get them here, survive the elements, disease and attack. Don’t you think for one minute that they didn’t. If you read my earlier messages carefully I stated that they made mistakes along the way, and yes, they did come here for their freedom. No one disputes that and they fought to keep it.

As a Veteran of the Armed forces myself I can appreciate that. There is nothing about Obama that I have said that “falls short”.

And as for your personal knowledge regarding our nation’s history, President Lincoln was a praying, and God-fearing man, as were many others in leadership. In God We Trust.

I am not ashamed of the gospel. And I believe not only in Jesus Christ, but in our duty to protect Israel. For decades we have reaped many many blessings in this country. In my own heart, I can’t help but wonder if that is one reason we have, in the past been so blessed, because we chose to protect that nation.

Little by little though, our country has changed. I don’t know how old you are, but I am 52. I have lived in 4 countries, served in the military, given birth and am a nurse, author and grandmother. My own life experience has allowed me to see perhaps more than anyone has in a lifetime. Some of it I am sorry to have witnessed. One of those things is the deterioration of my government, our morals and our backbone.

Sarah, I believe has a grip of what I speak.

Anyone who has been born before the 1960s knows what I mean. Most of the comments I hear on the media and read online appear to come from those who are much younger than myself who have never been exposed to the world in which I grew up and cannot see the change that has taken place. I am not speaking only of the last 8 years, My Friend.

Everything from allowing prayer in schools to disciplining a child has been challenged and much of it to the absurd extreme. Shirking responsibility for one’s actions and pleading “victimization” was the fashion, particularly in the 80s. The talk shows were filled with it. I knew then we were in trouble.

As I stated before, you are entitled to your feelings and opinions and ideals. I am not your judge. Neither am I going to ignore what you have said, but chose to disagree. That’s ok though. It is what makes conversations such as these interesting.

Oh, by the way, God bless you and you too, Brad Larsen!!

Time to let the cat out and make coffee…ymmmm
