Yeah - they reinforce the base. And I suppose they help demoralized the other side. I guess that will have to do - for now.

When Palin invokes religion in an argument to be humble, hopeful, and help others... to make a sacrifice for the greater good in the way Lincoln, FDR, and even Bill Clinton have asked, that's some kind of abomination?
Gibson was lying about Palin's 'exact words', but he was also lying to himself. He knows that religion invoked in this way is a wonderful thing. Anyone who thinks realizes this, even athiests. He's just lying to himself.

Good, but a little disjointed.
I guess invoking the #1 socialist is fine, not for me, he was a lying dick, who would say about anything, oh, sorry, FDR=asshole.
I thought Kennedy was great, HE fought for his country. Where would he be today in his party?
The Lincoln clip was a stretch.
I understand the effort, but there is a lot more history to be told.
Er, Washington's prayers to the troops, er , Jefferson.
Oh, I forgot no one knows who these people are, but if Martin Luther King said something, I guess it would be important.

The question was simple: Why are the Democrats so afraid of Palin and her popularity?
The answer was astonishing.
You got to be kind to the disabled, Rangel said.
Thats right. The chairman of the powerful House Ways & Means Committee called Palin disabled even when CBS 2 HD called him on it.

The video also shows how Gov Palin corrected Gibson on her quote and explained it was about praying that we on God's side, not the other way around.

Charley Gibson asks Sarah Palin: Are we in a holy war?
Then the video plays her entire quote from the church in context.
Then plays video or audio "prayers for our troops" from various Democrat presidents over the last 75 years.

Not merely asking questions as they so righteously proclaim. They make a disingenuous charge through the question. Expertly crafted really not to ask the question "Are we in a holy war?" but rather to impugn, condemn with spicy condescension, "You say we are in a holy war..." even though the "exact words" were inexact, clipped mid-sentence.
You, Sir Gibson, are a fraud.
But we've known that for years. It's just the wantonness of it all that sometimes makes us gasp.

It's a stretch to credit Gibson with any depth of thought, but if by "Holy War" he meant a war to advance a particular religion, then the answer is yes, we are fighting in a Holy War: al Qaeda's holy war against us.
The difference between our sides is stark: We pray that we are on God's side by advancing the cause of freedom, which, as the Declaration of Independence states, is God's precious gift to all humankind. On the other hand, al Qaeda is certain that God is with them, and wants them to extend and deepen their tyranny. There is no escaping the fact that this is a theological conflict, in which two visions of human nature and man's relationship with God are in direct, inescapable conflict.
So, yes, we are in a holy war. Not one of our making, but in it nevertheless.
So, Charlie, which side are you on?

Charlie Gibson and the MSM disgust me. There was a time in America when Christian morality was not just accepted but was encouraged and demanded of in our leaders. Somewhere in the 60's and 70's America's the Democrat Party, academia and the MSM sold their souls to the State - their utopian, secularist god. Today, the Left is almost as rabid in their anti-Christian faith in the State as any Jihadist is in Allah. Gibson wanted to humiliate and destroy Palin because she rejects his god.

Since the MSM is fond of rhetorical questions that presume guilt, here's a few they can ask the next time they're genuflecting in Barry's presence:
Would you salute a flag if the flag was a hammer and sickle, or a crescent and star?
Why did you fail to report campaign contributions from ACORN?
You have a long relationship with ACORN, a far-left group. Is that because of, or despite, their history of vote fraud?
How much of the $100 million dollar Chicago Annenberg Challenge money was spent directly on the schools? How much of it was spent on groups like ACORN?
In Dreams From My Father you wrote about your mentor, Frank Marshall Davis. Davis was a communist, a member of the Communist Party USA, how did his hard-earned knowledge and advice affect your own beliefs? Davis also urged coalition politics, is that why you became a community organizer?
Are you comfortable with communists because your parents were too?
Your Global Poverty Act would yearly transfer billions to the United Nations.
Under your plan, at what point would this massive transfer of wealth end? Is it your intent to make the US subordinate to the UN?
You voted against reform that would have prevented the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac collapses. Was that because you were bought, or because crippling the U.S. economy is part of a plan to further Communist or Muslim interests?
Two of your economic advisers are Franklin Raines and Jim Johnson. Both of them served as CEOs of Fannie Mae. They made millions. How is it good judgment to have them on your team?
Was pushing for looser loan requirements your way of funneling more money to ACORN, or was that just a way to transfer wealth to irresponsible people who were also eager to gorge at the government trough and support you?
If elected President, and both houses of Congress have Democrat majorities, on what issues would you reach across the aisle? On what issues would you seek compromise?
Considering your involvement with communists, radicals, and racists, and your desire to prevent further drilling, coal use, or nuclear power, as President of the United States, would it be your intent to lead this country down the path of destruction?
You can recite the muslim call to prayer in perfect Arabic, what Christian Bible verses have you memorized?
Okay, that was too long. I need to get a life. Or maybe play some Sudoku.

So you go get my exact words, you show me what it is you're quoting from, and when we can agree on what my 'exact words' were, then we'll talk about what I said, okay, Charlie? That seems fair to me."
It's only a fantasy, but still.
Also, I would like Gov. Palin to be grabbing Charlie at his crotch and squeezing very hard while she says all that. BUT I am reasonable and I can accept the forestated without said grabbing and squeezing.

I take issue when someone starts referring to the "war" in iraq as a "task from god." Church and state folks. Clinton was praying for protection and guidance. Thats fine! JFK said that our rights aren't state mandates, they inalienable rights that are our birthright as humans. FDR was leading the nation in prayer, and Lincoln was saying it's foolish to think you could bend God's plan to your plan.
Sarah Palin's religious views are only in question because the words "task from God" came out of her mouth. Chuck already knew the answer was going to be no, and was likely only saying that to try to fluster Sarah Palin, but whether or not she meant the war in Iraq is God's will (doubtful) or not is irrelavant. The reason I'm nervous about that kind of talk is because that is the EXACT philosophy that extremist muslims used to justify flying planes into the twin towers, and scuicide bombing job markets in THEIR OWN COUNTRY. It was their God's will, and they answer to a higher power. We can't afford that kind of shit. Here in the United States, you answer to the People, not God. It doesn't matter what God's plan is, here the People VOTE for our country's plan of action. It's not handed down by clerics. That's why its so great!
I don't know why I bothered posting this comments, and it seems like I'm raising my hand to try to speak to an angry crowd. I came here thinking it would be a page about the history of Motorhead's Ace of Spades. I hope this explained a little bit of what the other half are thinking

I applaud this pushback against the sneering media Eloi.
While the FDR section was the section which had me tearing up, the JFK section was the most thought-provoking. JFK was Catholic when it wasn't cool. When he referred to religion, he had to be worried that most people of this Protestant nation might think, at the back of their minds, that he was going to bust out with the Latin and rosary and Mary and various saints. But he didn't. He didn't even cite the baby Jesus. He went straight to One Who would represent all Americans: even Jews, Mormons, and Muslims.

Your problem, Donald, is that you're just assuming what Gibson said was true without looking at the evidence. Because if you had looked at the evidence, you would already know that what Gibson said was NOT true.
Your entire post makes no sense, not because we poor benighted conservatives are insensate, but because you're acting on your assumptions without checking the facts.
The part where you compared Palin to a suicide bomber - that was just you being an ignorant asshole.

DonaldMattah, if all lefties treated us righties with the respect you have just displayed, there would be a lot more productive discussion on both sides. Unfortunately most lefties who come in here aren't nearly as thoughtful.
Thing to remember about Christians: they care more about Jesus and making Him happy than they care about politics. Or work. Or even their own personal happiness! But they figure that Jesus gives them the purpose to life which makes them happier, better workers, and (where I'll probably lose you) more considered voters.
I do agree with the Left that the sort of people who are most vocal about "religion in the public square" / "Christians in public life" / what-have-you are more interested in the politics than they are in the Jesus. I too would like them to leave us alone. However consider all the moral crusades the Left would conscript us into: stop-racism this, global-warming that, the UN for everything else. I submit that all of this is just as based on faith as is a Christian's belief in the living God.

Merovign: He did compare Palin to a suicide bomber, didn't he? I should have read the paragraph more closely...
DonaldMattah: You lose points for that. Oh do you ever lose points for that. The soldier who sacrifices his life for a cause greater than himself is NOT, NOT, NOT the same as the suicide bomber who sacrifices his life to kill off a few more innocent Jews. While there are commonalities (besides religion, the thought of earning an honourable name among his friends also figures) the soldier has comrades whom he loves more than he loves himself; the terrorist is motivated by the people he wants to kill, whom he hates more than he loves himself.

It's funny how the left is angry with that Islamic fundamentalism because of its religion - but that "destroy America by killing Americans" part they are okay with and never seem to complain about.
I'd be happy if Gibson simply admitted that we are at war - much less a holy one - 'cause if the Obummer gets elected we're back to treating those thousands lost in terrorist attacks as police actions. Did anybody dig old Atta's pulverized bones out of Ground Zero so we could prosecute him?

This response is to Barbelle's post -
I wouldn't know about atheism, but speaking as a secularist: yes, we give a rip. Our reasons for being for or against the war aside; what about tactics? What about logistics? We want people in charge who know how to win a war, which is a practical field - a science, in short. We don't want people in charge who we suspect are getting their ideas from God. We can't, after all, cross-examine God, or his understudy the Archangel Michael, as to how best to ford the Euphrates at this point or how best to deliver supplies to Kirkuk.
If we suspect that the war effort is being led by a mad(wo)man, then we will go from "support the war aim" to "support the war aim but not under these idiots". That last can easily slide into "support the other guy just so these idiots won't get our soldiers needlessly killed".
But that's just a temporary failure. We secularists are more interested in the long game of keeping America from sliding into a notionally-Christian version of Saudi Arabia. If an outspokenly Christian government should intervene in secular policy under explicitly Christian terms, and by chance should succeed, then that gives prestige to that government. We are thinking of Constantine, here. Only two generations after Constantine was the battle of Edirne in 378 AD, and a fatal anarchy in the West.

Even if I believed you I wouldn't care, Dog Lover. The military has had it shares of cowards too. Now go polish your Section 8; you'll find it under your stack or Article 15s.
Did I say "bitch"? My bad, I meant "bigot."
You bet, and I'll continue to look down on all canine sodomists.

"The reason I'm nervous about that kind of talk is because that is the EXACT philosophy that extremist muslims used to justify flying planes into the twin towers, and scuicide bombing job markets in THEIR OWN COUNTRY. It was their God's will, and they answer to a higher power. "
okay, and when was the last time a pack of evangelicals hijacked a plane and ran it into a mosque? Your illustration/equivalency is ample evidence you know nothing of Christianity. Nothing.

To clarify here, most people have no problem with praying to god for protection over our troops. That isn't what we "left wing nutjobs" are concerned with.
But that's exactly what she did so it's not a big deal.
Someone, somewhere said we all say "God forbid" or "God willing" (well maybe not the extreme "in your face" atheists who would rather eat their own liver first). That's all she was effectively saying using more words.
Gibson made it seem like she is going to be bringing a Burning Bush into the Oval Office (or Oral Office when Slick Willie was the Pres) to consult on matters of foreign policy. It was EXTREMELY dishonest and misleading.
I figured the McCain capaign would be demanding an apology/retraction but it probably makes sense not to as they would look whiney.
If ABC had any honor they would clarify what Palin really said. But they don't, so they won't.

I clicked the video because I thought the headline said "Holy shit."
But then halfway through Kennedy's speech I figured out it was just "Holy shit."
In which case, not interested.

"Are we fighting a holy war?"
Difficult question to be sure and not to be taken lightly as the mere metion of a task from God sends the left into a headpounding frenzy of insecurity. I think of it this way. When a group , a church, town ,city , state or nation pray for the saftey of its people. They are asking God for deliverance of sorts. Its up to God to decide how to help them. In biblical times God would answer the prayer by sending a holy host of angels to smite the offender. Not so different here in this case in the war on terror. I have never personally wittnessed a holy host of angels sent to the rescue unless you consider the tools that God has readily available. When God answers the prayers of deliverance from the war on terror he chose this time to send the US freaking military and the faithful coalition that joined with us to say "Hell No! You won't be blowing up our people and thowing a party"
Are we fighting a holy war? No. Is it a task from God? Yes it is.

Oh Yeah! I can hear some lefty head exploding with this question right now!
lefty: WHY ON EARTH WOULD GOD SEND THE US FREAKING MILITARY?
me: Because God knows that we can win this thing

I also agree with you that Charlie Gibson was being a raging asshole when he crossed his legs and took off his glasses to ask about a holy war, when it was CLEAR that she was praying for God's blessing, which is perfectly acceptable. Maybe I didn't get that across clear enough either. The public had heard of the sound byte of Palin saying "task from god" without the rest of the context, and any interviewer worth his salt would ask for a clarification. Gibson however used the question to put Palin on the defensive. Shameful.
With all that being said, I think Sarah Palin is GROSSLY under qualified to be vice president, mostly having to do with her inexperience. To be fair, I don't think Obama has a lot of experience either, but I find his morals and ideals mesh with many (but not nearly all) of my own, and those ideals just might cause a tiny paradigm shift in Washington. Add to that Joe Biden as a VP, and the fact that I think that if McCain were elected president, America would continue on the path it is on now, which is turning the world against us. He also strikes me as a deceitful and dishonest person and politician, and I am disgusted with the campaign he is running. I'm not here to change your minds, I'm just trying to communicate to you what "the other half" think, and why. I'm also here to learn about you guys, to see why the left and right hate each other so badly, and how to reconcile the differences.
"when was the last time a pack of evangelicals hijacked a plane and ran it into a mosque"
The twin towers were not churches, and Evangelical's don't need to hijack planes. Also take a look at how many mosques have been firebombed here in America. Granted, many were directly after 9-11 when many of us were feeling angry, impotent and powerless, and some people predictably took it out that frustration on the nearest thing they associated with the attackers.
What would you fly a plane into anyway? Mohamed's ancestral house? Maybe the Burj Dubai tower that's being built by the money we put in to our gas tanks?
Just like the Saudi Cleric who just deemed it OK to kill people who draw cartoons about Mohamed, Evangelicals have people like Glen Beck, Bill O'Riley and Rush Limbaugh. They spend hours each day spewing out the most hateful, misinformed, ignorant, and damaging messages I have ever heard come out of a television or radio. I try so hard not to hate these people, but every time I hear one of them talk, my blood boils in anger at just absolutely hateful things the things they are saying, and asking their listeners to do. I haven't heard anybody on the left wing say anything nearly as shockingly offensive. It seems like all they want is Legalized Abortion, Gay Marraige, and want to address Global Warming before the planet's environment becomes hostile to human life. The Right seems to want to deport anyone living in america who isn't a white christian, and then forcefully convert every other country to a Christian run Democracy. Maybe I just haven't heard enough left wing talk shows, but I try to steer clear of hate speech no matter what the source.
My biggest concern that has risen out of this election is the fear that this country is going to be so divided by being Democrat or Republican that we will have another civil war. I lean left, but am actually pretty moderate. It feels like the left and right wings are tearing this country in half. Maybe next election there will be a decent Libertarian movement.

You've never ever listened to Glenn Beck one time in your shabby lying life, and are a douchebag. Good day to you, sirrah.
