Sarah Palin: "...what my position is on homosexuality and you can pray it away..."
Holy moly.

"But what you're talking about, I think, value here, what my position is on homosexuality and you can pray it away, because I think that was the title that was listed on that bulletin, and you know, I don't know what prayers are worthy of being prayed, I don't know what's prayers are going to be asked and answered. But as for homosexuality, I am not going to judge Americans and the decisions that they make in their adult personal relationships. I have one of my absolute best friends for the last 30 years happens to be gay, and I love her dearly and she is not my "gay friend," she is one of my best friends, who happens to have made a choice that isn't a choice that I have made, but I am not going to judge people." - Sarah Palin

2. While all you gays are at it, could you pray for some help with my student loans?
Since you'll be on the phone with the almighty anyway...

6. She's a dingbat who has a major problem articulating her ideas.
It's as if she doesn't care enough to think things out just a little bit before opening her mouth.. she just goes ahead and blathers on regardless of whether her ideas are coherent at all.

I cannot WAIT for the debates!

12. I wonder if her friend says, "But one of my best friends is a theocratic nutcase....
who believes dinosaurs and humans drank from the same waterholes?"

15. It is scary that every time I see one her quotes, I have to check the source to make sure it is real
and it normally is. That sounds like parody.

17. Well, I prayed away the straight, and look at me now!
(I still wouldn't do Palin with a 10 foot strap on, but that's a reasonable choice, methinks.)

18. I just read the article and did you notice that the entire thing was
centered around all the hot button issues where past Plain comments have caused great controversy?

Almost as if this interview was designed to give moderated answers?

20. Soooooo, Sarah. How many women did you sleep with before
you CHOSE to be straight? And how long did it take you to pray your gay away? Enquiring minds want to know.

:popcorn:
