Isn't Palin the 'Governor of Alaska' and not the 'Alaskan' governor' After all, she's isn't an Alaska native having been born in Idaho.

Would you say that Arnold Schwarzenegger is the 'Californian Governor?' Of course not.

Pray baby pray! Maybe we should go back to the ways of our forefathers, and get back to the foundations that made us such a great nation. We are tolerant of all of the things that are tearing us down. We where a Christian, prayerful nation then, and as we become more atheist, agnostic, homosexual, muslim, socialist, and addicted to everything from drugs to sex, money and cars, lipstick and gas, we are beginning to lose everything that our forefathers worked so hard to gain for us. We felt blessed back then, and we are feeling cursed now. I am glad that we have somebody that is running for office that seems in touch with the values that are the foundation of our country.

um, excuse me brum, but not ALL christian or spiritual people are right wing wingnuts.

I'm a Christian and I'm a huge Obama supporter - I wish the Democratic Party was more like the Social Democrats in Europe, that's how liberal I am. Anyway, I may not agree with Gov. Palin's political views, but I did find it sweet and touching that her emails seem pretty down to earth....prayer requests, baby photos...who knows, maybe they leaked them intentionally lol.

It all seems overly perfect to me.
Yeah, I think they intentionally leaked the emails too.

Especially the part about 'Taxes' doesn't reflect their agenda.

Anyways, She's not good to be anything close to a respectable leader.
Everybody knows this now.

So 'activists' hacked her account? Isn't that illegal, as in 'criminals' hacked her account?

What's next - some heroic 'activists' have murdered Palin?

To Conservative Wing Nut: Our forefathers very wisely demanded a separation of church and state. BTW, how do you know how 'blessed' 'we' felt back then? It was over 200 years ago. I doubt that African American people felt very 'blessed' at the time, nor did Native American people. You view of the world sounds conveniently idealistic and delusional. Have a 'blessed' day. Jesus loves you as do the rest of that period's Pagan deities. See Dionysus for a comparative reference (he too was born in a manger, followed by wise men on camels and rose from the dead).

To Real:

The separation of church and state was specifically so that no religion was affliated directly with the Government. Furthermore, in the United States, we have freedom OF religion, not freedom FROM religion.

You are right, Jesus does love everyone. However, I am missing one thing. I missed the book about Dionysus, his virgin mother, the miracles he performed, and his resurrection.

Palin is simply being used by McCain. Smart move on his part though to turn his lemons into lemonade. Once Hillary lost the Democratic nomination, McCain partners up with a woman. No other way to go head to head with Obama, look at the neck and neck race he had with Hillary. McCain couldnt get Hillary on his ticket for the obvious reasons, so he got the next best thing to take the fight to Obama. I can't wait to see what other sneaky tactics he has in store if he wins the election.

Yay religion arguments, about the most pointless thing to argue. Ita great that you have found something to believe in no matter how ridiculous it is. You can take your same book with Jesus and change the word Jesus to Dionysus or whatever else you want and have your own little religious book. The book is just a big game of telephone with so much crap in it anyhow.

Religion is nothing more than a way to explain the unexplainable. To find that niche that makes you sleep at night or feel better about bad times and that shoulder for you to cry on because you are that weak to buy into that crap. Its just mind control and the power of belief, be weak if you want to.

Think about it for a second, maybe theres that one situation you were in, down and out and you pray to anyone, anything that will listen to you. As time goes on, because it always does things gradually improve and you're no longer in this bad situation and things are looking better and the bad times are in the past. Now the thanks all go to god, jesus, and whomever but in actuality it was no more than you doing whatever you had to do to get by and eventually you figured it out and got the ball moving in the right direction for yourself. Thank yourself. Yeah maybe you had some help along the way from friends or people who really cared about you, thank them too. Now apply the same situation but just pray and wait for something to get done about your issues is just insane.

I must go and pray now to the flying spaghetti monster.
