Is Palin Just an Opportunistic Woman? … No

Started by Randy · 10 months ago

Have you heard enough about her already? Are you *done* with the blahbitty blah blah banter concerning her chances for Vice President? Well … get over it because I am about to add another chorus to the wall of sound. ::: laugh ::: But, first, here is a video of th ... Continue reading »

    If you have time in between running, green smoothies and taking care of the cutest baby in Boston, I would love to hear more from your perspective as a woman and living in the Northeast.

    I'm with you all the way on her speech... it was fantastic. And honestly, I'm enjoying watching the Left choke on their own hypocrisy as they attempt to attack her with sexist rhetoric and cracks about her "inexperience," when anybody and everybody can tell she has more than Obama.

    Another thing that just struck me about the [Worship] Us magazine photo you posted... the headline for Palin: "Babies, Lies & Scandal." It's like they think the word "babies" somehow fits into the same category as the other two. Is it another manifestation of the Death Culture mentality?

    I didn't catch that but I think you might be on to something. They definitely reduced babies to a scandalous "issue" and not respecting human life. Fox News just reported that around 10,000 people have canceled their subscriptions and more have decided to boycott the advertisers in US magazine.

    Oh ... and I am amazed, but ultimately not surprised, at watching the far left scramble and manifest the behavior they pride themselves of not being a part of. I never read Daily Kos but I checked the other day and they (not all) are simply some of the meanest people I have ever come across in the blogosphere.

    Plus, she is a natural leader/speaker like he is. McCain did very well.

    My thought (of course) was....why oh why didn't I approach her about doing a book a year ago? Perhaps because I hadn't heard of her then. Still, can you imagine if a savvy publisher had been on the ball and recognized that this woman has a national future....

    I think I need to go lay down for awhile.

    I hear that Palins church is hosting a Love Won Out Conference.

    She's speaking like a true Republican!

    Now if only, The Republican's can speak more for Social Justice. It still sounds like The Republicans are about business and making the rich richer instead of helping to improve living conditions for the poor and making room for low income housing.

    If only there were a party that cared for Social Justitce issues as well as influencing the Nation with Judeo-Christian moral values...which Social Justice is huge on God's agenda.

    All throughout the bible we see that one of the prime mandates for God's people is to take care of the orphan and the widow in their distress. In the book of Ezekial it also mentions that the iniquity of Sodom was not just the sexual immorality but also not taking care of the poor, having too full of a stomach and laziness.

    And so, while many Republican's will support and Orphan through ministries like World Vision, that takes care of the needs of children in underdeveloped countries but what about America? What about North America? What about North American Orphans? What about the many growing up in less than ideal circumstances?

    Yes, the church is suppose to meet these needs and The Republican's for whatever reason are to the world the face of Christianity. But sometimes it seems to me that some people are more into the idea of winning a moral debate over the heart of the person who is on the other side.

    For me, I've always had in mind to cultivate a relationship with others in the same way that Jesus has cultivated a relationship with me.

    I would like some debates to end and the beginning of having practical needs being met.

    I am more into meeting the needs of the less fortunate instead of building up the Oil and Gas Industries.

    Just thoughts.
