This article pretty much sums up my thoughts, and highlights some of the especially stupid remarks in the interview.

I'm absolutely amazed (though I suppose mass stupidity isn't particularly surprising) that McCain and Palin still have strong support after that interview.

She's hideous. In some line she was talking about Islamic terrorists and said "those who would seek to destroy America and it's allies". I was like wtf? Bush? Is that you?

And great to see they're still riding the god wagon so hard.

"We're on a mission from God" [Referring to Iraq]


Are you FUCKING kiddding me? How can you expect a person to hold a responsible foreign policy in a position notorious for corruption if she believes that every military action is a direct demand from God.


Arabs think God wants them to kill Christians. Christians think God wants them to kill Arabs. At the very least ONE group is fucking wrong.

And you know the only social aspect these people agree with? That the peaceful atheists are the worst of all.





Human beings are paving the way towards their own destruction and I've lost all sympathy.

Yeah I know what you mean, she totally reminds me of bush. She refers to Alaska's Aboriginal people as "Arctic Arabs" and "f**king Eskimo's.
I wonder what she thinks of blacks and Mexicans?
You can see the interview here.

That's completely out of context. She said she prayed that the War in Iraq is her doing God's will. There's a big fucking difference between her stating she's doing God's will, and her saying she hopes she'd doing God's will. Of course she hopes she's doing what God would want her to, anyone who believes in God hopes that.

"Pray that we're on a task from God" isn't much less idiotic.

Of course it's less idiotic. If you did believe in God, of course you wouldn't pray that you're not doing what he'd want you to do. It's only logical to pray that you're on a task from God, if you believe in God.

in Charlies mind: "JUST ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTION. YES OR NO?!"

No it's not?

When Gibson asked her about Iraq, she said We're on a mission from god....

And because you realize the blunt stupidity of her opinions and how you support them you refuse to admit it in fear of lowering self-esteem.

There is NOT a big fucking difference.

Praying that WHAT YOU ARE CURRENTLY DOING OR WANT TO DO is God's will, suggests that you have some measure of faith that what you are doing is God's will.

THAT IS PRETTY FUCKING SELF EVIDENT.

Futhermore, when dealing with religious extremists, it is very important to LEAVE YOUR OWN RELIGION out of it...regardless of what your religion is...but if it in opposition of what the aforementioned extremists believe...it is just common fucking sense mandate to do so.

The only reasons I can think of to invoke your own religion when dealing with extremists are:

1) You are too fucking stupid to realize basic communication 101.
2) You WISH to further antagonize them.
3) You are a religious extremist yourself.

Anyone of those (I think it is a little of all three) should completely invalidate someone as serviing in any kind of statesmen capacity in the minds of intellgent voters.
