I agree with that 100%. I am no creationist.

But still the fact that no missing link was found cannot be blamed on them.
They are not omnipresent all powerful super beings after all.
They just jump over holes in science as evidence of their position.
But Intelligent design is not “creationism”. Einstein, Newton and Voltaire believed it, so do the Masons, the Jews and many others.

Still not proven but neither is the other theory.

I can live with questions without battering those who pretend to have found answers.

What do you expect a politician would say at the Assembly of God church?

Obama stated at AIPAC that Jerusalem was the undivided and indivisible capital of Israel. Like that wasn’t “one for the crowd”.

Watch the Kouric interview, all of it not just what made it on TV and there it was. She stated what I quoted above.
Its silly.
Face it. There is a mad fanaticism among some atheists just like among the religious.

Her dad views are different and Palin admits them, so you are throwing a red herring in this.

“I bumped into her once after my band played at a graduation ceremony at the Assembly of God. I said, ‘Sarah, how can you believe in creationism — your father’s a science teacher.’ And she said, ‘We don’t have to agree on everything.’

Her dad was a Bio teacher. She never said she denied evolution and stated in that famous Kouric interview that only Evolution should be thought in bio classes.

Many people mis-understand the religious view regarding creation.
Of course there are also the morons who take things in their literal meaning and end up believing nonsense.

I once asked an orthodox Jew MD how he dealt with the differing views regarding creation/life etc.

He said that G-d created many worlds, parallel and consecutive to ours. Hence the figures of 6000 years or so for biblical creation while not negating the fact that dinosaurs existed in “other worlds”.

Also do not forget that evolution has not yet fully explained human development. There is still no “missing link”.
Does that prove G-d? Of course not. But surely proves nothing is 100% true or full proof.

If the answer is “Yes” she’s a nutjob and should be nowhere near the top job.

The earth is about 4.5 billion years old give or take, and anyone who seriously doubts this needs looking at.

Remember Reagan, he won largely because of Unionized democrats unhappy with their economic situation. Hence the cliche “Reagan democrats”.

Palin has blue collar appeal. But I am not 100% convinced she will run.

When/where did I say she did?

Her husband was, until recently, a Union member working at a blue collar job.

Is this the new canard? “Palin the union buster”?
Like some Henry Ford reborn?

Come on….

Love her or hate her, this woman is the most honest politician I have seen since…well, ever seen actually.

This whole belief that somehow she is some demonic bigot and evil witch is slander by the media and her opponents who, according to an old nasty American tradition, wanted to burn her like the witch of Salem.

Now she is back telling her side of the story. Some will care, most will not.
But one thing for sure, she is no dunce as if she were, the media and the Left would not obsess about her like this.

Face it. She is the anti-Obama. And by that I mean, she is just like him in many ways. A movement candidate. If she does succeed in becoming president, she will owe a lot to the methods and tactics of the Obama 08 team.

At any rate, she is now the voice of a large section of the country. Larger than most think. And her scorn for both parties for their elitism is to be admired no matter where one stands on issues.
Before her there was Perot, Nader and Paul. All looked silly and out of place. They lacked the grace and presence of a real candidate.
Sarah doesn’t. This will make a difference. She brings a certain freshness to the debate and will contribute to it whether she wins or loses.

This woman is an ordinary person who rose higher than any would have predicted. And her ability to come back after the battering she took and the demonization she faced should be inspiration to all women who somehow hold back on their ambitions because they worry too much about what others think of them. Instead of being jealous of her for beating this fear, they should (and many will) stand with her in her comeback. This is what scares the Left. And this is why they try to pre-empt any of her efforts by calling her a liar again and parading that Levi Johnson character as if his weight would be equal to hers.

Seeing supposedly serous reporters and journalists juxtaposing the main characters of some story they concocted between a governor and the loser who knocked up her daughter as if that mattered at all shows how low journalism has gotten in America. Sarah P, puts up a mirror to that and they don’t like it. No surprise there of course.

I always liked underdogs. This is why I was happy Obama beat Hilary for the nomination. And this is why I will support Sarah P. to go all the way because as she stands now, she has nothing to lose. And it is hard to stop those who have nothing to lose.

What more can they throw at her? Pretty much the whole kitchen sink and the toilet has been dumped on her in 2008. Even since then they didn’t relent. After the election they still pursued her and wanted to destroy her.
Politics is a dirty game but I was shocked how silent the “feminists” were when Letterman made a joke about raping Palins 14 year old daughter.
Then again they also remained silent about the FGM and stoning of women forced to cover up in niqabs.

Good for Sarah. She will turn heads and will turn many things on their heads.

The same people who claim racism is behind opposition to health care did not shy away from persecuting and slandering a woman and her children with the most outlandish of allegations.
What does that make them?
And do they not realize how some people may have also noticed?

At this stage she will turn all that mud into gold and build strength from what was designed to demolish her.

Adding to that the fact that many compare her to Reagan. Perhaps too immature at this stage but Obama is starting to look like Carter more by the day. As there could have been no Reagan without Carter, Obama will have a lot to do with who he will face in 2012.

Oh yeah, he lost all credibility when he propagated the sick lie that Palin wasn’t the mother of her son Trig.

This is akin to those lunatics who propagated that Obama was an Islamic militant born in Kenya

Ok, here is evidence from residents and a local pastor and an interview from a Palin supporter in Waslia that admits that while the story is overblown, Palin did “inquire” about the library policy of removing books.
