Thy will be done

Thou shalt not take the name of Yahweh thy God in Vain.


"I think God's will has to be done"
said Sarah Palin. Was this in reference to taking care of the helpless? She certainly wasn't advocating for helping unwed teenage mothers or any such liberalmarxistfarleftcommie stuff. She's talking about the Gas God. His name is greed, his name is selfish, his name is vanity itself.

"I think God's will has to be done in unifying people and companies to get that gas line built, so pray for that,"
she said to her pentecostal church.

No matter what the media pretends to advocate, Sarah Palin's religious views are not off limits because Sarah Palin's religious views are the reason for her being raised up to the big time arena of religious crusades the American political theater is played in. She's McCain's sellout to the religious crazies, the insurgents, the theocrats and Dominionists who think freedom itself is an insult to God.

Not only Does the will of Sarah's God include sending teen mothers out in the cold with their infants so that the sinners will be punished along with the innocent, his will includes the uprooting of our constitution to be replaced with whatever dogma her church believes in at the moment. Sarah's God really wants the energy companies to have a pipeline and Sarah's God will have his will done in Iraq:
"a task that is from God."
Naturally Sarah's God hates birth control and especially teaching about it to those most vulnerable to unwanted pregnancy - as with most Republican tyrants, her God would rather have an infant suffer the consequences of having an indigent mother and a child father because that creates the kind of squalor and hopelessness that RepubliGod thrives in. Sarah, speaking for God of course, would rather have a woman die screaming than to abort a foetus the size of a pinhead or even a fertilized egg.

We quibble about her experience. We pretend she's intelligent and honest and moral. We pretend the press which never asks embarrassing questions or investigates any claim is giving her a hard time - because they're liberal.

I no longer ask how insane things have to get before anybody notices. I no longer ask how a democracy gives its consent to tyranny. I know the answer, we're living the answer.
