Religious sincerity

It’s amusing to read the oh-so-troubled quotes from the seculars who get their panties in a twist whenever someone appeals to the Supreme Being, particularly when they link soldiers and deity in the same sentence. 

Mrs. Palin does it in a church youth fellowship video the establishment media thugs at MSNBC have scarfed up for their next round of Sarah-bashing. These people really are running scared. They prove it by not reading their own polls, which show that three-quarters of Americans are believers whether they attend services or not.

So urging the believing youngsters to pray "that our leaders — that our national leaders — are sending [soldiers] out on a task that is from God,” as Sarah apparently says in the video, is just common sense. Unless you’re a secular media heavy who gets all squirmey at the thought of anyone believing in a higher power than you.

Even Baby Barry prays to be "an instrument of God’s will," though his church bashes whitey.

Reagan in high heels?

Now there’s a thought. I will say that Sarah could, most definitely, give Hillary a run for her money.

UPDATE: Now, even Michael Reagan thinks his dad has been reincarnated as a woman from Alaska.

Excerpts from Sarah’s speech

"Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown. And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a ‘community organizer,’ except that you have actual responsibilities."

Heh. Double heh. Should be well worth the watch tonight at 9:30 p.m. CDT.

UPDATE:  I thought she was great. The anti-Hillary. But, then, I’d seen her speeches before, on YouTube, from Alaska politics, so I knew she would do well. Her material was better this time. She’ll obviously have no trouble with blowhard Biden. Or "no experience" Barry, either. As long as she can keep her cool with the establishment media thugs, she’ll do fine. Our next vice president!

The Left goes mad

The loonatic day of the Lefties, and their ally the MSM, continues:

"The lofty intellectuals and putative friends of the common man are having a field day. Debates are raging among the champions of the proletariat, about whether to call the Palins ‘poor white trash,’ ‘Alaska rednecks,’ (not PC) or ‘trailer trash’ (non-racial and therefore more PC)."

Mac and Sarah are going to whoop their butts in November, and won’t it be fun to watch. Get ready for four years of McCain Derangement Syndrome.

Via Simply Jews.

The Common Touch

Newt Gingrich on Sarah: "Palin will make mistakes. The news media and the Obama researchers will find things to attack. But if she stays relaxed and continues to be authentically who she has been for 44 years, the country is going to love her…" Except, maybe, the Left, which is terrified of her. And now, in her own words.

The Hostess With The Moosest

The incomparable Mark Steyn weighs in on the relative "experience" of Baby Barry vs Gov. Palin:

"Sarah Palin and Barack Obama are more or less the same age, but Governor Palin has run a state and a town and a commercial fishing operation, whereas (to reprise a famous line on the Rev Jackson) Senator Obama ain’t run nothin’ but his mouth. She’s done the stuff he’s merely a poseur about."

Read it and weep, Dems. Your historic moment done come and gone. Just like in ’04. Heh. 

Sarah’s already a commander-in-chief

One job she’ll have to give up when she’s vice president: commander of the Alaska National Guard. Which, with the permanently-active, round-the-clock 49th Missile Defense Battalion, is a heckuva lot more important than you might imagine–especially since Russian has resumed bomber patrols.

UPDATE:  Good background here on pdf, on missile defense operations, thanks to BlackFive.
