I Think The Tea Party People Are Idiots

Sara Palin and her views on religion.

Sarah Palin has long been a bete noir of the left, but she has always been able to count support from grass-roots conservatives. At least, until now.

During a speech to members of the National Rifle Association this weekend, Ms Palin cracked a joke that - while being well-received by the crowd - didn't go over as well with many Christian commentators, many of whom considered her an ally.

"They obviously have information on plots to carry out jihad," she said, referring to muslim prisoners. "Oh, but you can't offend them, can't make them feel uncomfortable, not even a smidgen. Well, if I were in charge, they would know that waterboarding is how we baptise terrorists."

Ooops!

She doesn't seem to realise how offensive that is to the Christian Right.

It's offensive to a lot of people for a lot of reasons...

Seems like Redredred thinks it was funny......
zyffdog
To each their own...different people see things different ways...there are probably as many people thinking it's funny as there are offended by it...
Redredred
It is funny; you're simply humor-impaired, not the largest intellectual deficit you possess.

Wow.....call me some more names , cowboy.
Redredred
What name did I call you?
Mikemcneil · 61-69, M
Did you just tell me to "grow up"?

Aren't we the intelligent one....?
Redredred
Yeah, you really should but that's not name calling. You seem to need a lot of basic information explained to you.

she says things just to keep her name in the media... she knows if she says stupid stuff she will see her name on the morning news!!

she is a gluten for punishment.

i often wonder where she makes her money? I guess they pay her big bucks to speak .

Like what baptism means? It appears you have a real blind spot there.

I think the MRA movement probably give her some of Jack's money lol.

She would go to the opening of an envelope if it got her a paycheck.
