God, how much do I want to go to Eastern Standard and drink nummy classic cocktails.

I approve of this plan.

If I found her endearing, I'd say she was Ralph Wiggum.

Water. Coming out of my nose.

Have you seen Amych's Flickr set?

Oh, yes! It's just that, the more she talks, the more she doesn't *need* the Ralph-isms on those pictures; her own quotes work just fine.

From the transcript on the CBS website:

Couric: Your church sponsored a conference that claimed to be able to convert gays into heterosexuals through prayer. Do you think that gays can be converted, governor?

Palin: Well, you're absolutely wrong, again, on the facts. My church, I don't have a church, I'm not a member of any church. I get to visit a couple of churches in Alaska when I'm home, including one, Wasilla Bible Church, and that's the one that you're talking about.

It would be interesting to see when she last was a member of a church.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

This is on a par with Shrub, darling of the fundamentalists, who doesn't attend church.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, the witch-hunter video was from the church she grew up in, but apparently she's not currently a member there; and anyway he's not the regular pastor there -- he's a traveling speaker/evangelist type.

Neither of those things makes the whole scene any less creepy, but I always have this annoying need to get factcheck-y.

(Actually, I have a whole bunch of other thoughts about Palin's religiosity, but they're not in a making-sense place, and anyway are probably fairly boring.)

HOW can fundies support someone who doesn't even have a church home? How is is possible to manipulate such a literalist community while not walking the talk?

I strongly suspect that any physical records that deem him fit to be Commander in Chief have been doctored.

No need; there are thousands of pages of them and they allowed reporters access for something like three hours with no note-taking allowed.

He goes to church now, right? We were discussing this here in the last month and I think he does attend somewhere regularly.

No.no. I really appreciate the correctness. If I'm going to rant, I want to have at least a glancing relationship with the truth.
