Maybe God is the One positioning her for His Glory-- but I don't think that is the case here. I don't believe her to be an Esther. She's a non-entity.

So was Esther until God positioned her for greatness.

good point, but we'll see the end of this.

if she ain't saved, why is she so special?

oh I know, God will use her to deliver our country and then, upon death, if she isn't Apostolic by then, with all her pants suits trashed, make up washed off and her television set destroyed, she'll still die and go to hell.

Pure trash talk.

Of course she is saved. But to assume unsaved people are of less value is faulty at the core. Christ DIED for unsaved humanity!

Is it really faulty? How so?

Palin Proved Formidable in Alaska Debates

ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- There are two things people here remember about Sarah Palin's debating style during her race for governor two years ago.

One is the stack of color-coded cue cards she took to the podium for help whenever she was asked a policy question. The other is how quickly she was able to shuck those props, master the thrust-and-parry of jousting with her opponents and inquisitors, and project confidence to an audience of television viewers watching from home.

"That's the Sarah Palin I remember from the 2006 debates: positive, confident and upbeat," recalls Libby Casey, an Alaska public-radio reporter who served as a debate moderator on two occasions that year.

That's a contrast from the image projected by Gov. Palin in recent TV interviews in which she has seemed shaky on basic facts -- performances that have made even many of her fellow Republicans nervous about the vice-presidential debate scheduled for Thursday.

Thanks for the article! I found this clip of the Alaskan Gubernatorial race. I loved the question posed to her, toward the end, about high school drops outs. Her plan will work. It was something implemented when I was in High School, but I've seen it go by the wayside, at least, in our area.

Then, again if one has followed my posts, you know that I don't believe that God is as shallow as all that.

Sometimes sarcasm can be quite effective, and even quite humorous at times. ... Or sometimes it can be just distasteful.

In this case, that was just distasteful.

Next time I'll try to be a little tastier.
