Silly Sarah Palin-U.S. Law Best Based on Bible (Video)
Sarah Palin was on the O’Reilly Factor last night talking about the National Day of Prayer, but she went a bit further than her usual party line of calling America a Christian nation. “I think we should keep this clean, keep it simple, go back to what our founders and our founding documents meant,” she said. “They’re quite clear that we would create law based on the God of the Bible and the 10 commandments, it’s pretty simple.”
What would she say to non-believers who were brought up in a different culture, O’Reilly wondered. “Yay, welcome to America, where we are tolerant and you have a freedom to express whatever faith, you can participate peacefully in whatever religion that you choose, that’s what America is all about,” she said, but added that our courts should respect “what the Judeo-Christian beliefs are, too. It’s mutual tolerance.”

The notion that this is a Christian nation would cause our founding fathers to gasp in horror or laugh out loud. We are a secular nation of laws, and that is that.
I’d read they were mostly Deists, which I think is an anagram for Agnostic?
Anyway you’re right. We’re a secular nation.
I disagree. The fact is that 88% of us are “Christians.” That is about 80% too many for me. I live in the heart of darkness, the Deep South. A place guaranteed to fill your soul with a sad and most lazy despair. There is a church on every corner and a cross in every other yard. Everything shuts down on Sunday and the sale or possession of The New York Times is a felony. This is a Christian nation. The governments of Europe shake their head in wonder at the religious fanaticism that grips our country and our government. They are quite happy in their quiet secularism. I envy them.
OK, you guys! From now on, there will be no cooking, turning on a light, or travel more than a block from home from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday.
Also, if you’re gay, you get to get stoned.
Stoned? Praise Jesus! Do anyone know a good stone vendor? I prefer a one-pounder that is flat on one side but has some good sharp edges.
Such a deal I Have for you, even!
LOL! Very Jewish TC 🙂
As was my mother.
Palin is a perfect example of what you get when you combine ignorance and unrelenting partisanship. In a nation-wide general election, I doubt that she could even crack 40%. Still, though, I would like to see the lady naked.
OK! OK! I guess I would like to see her naked also but only if forced to look 🙂
“I think we should keep this clean, keep it simple, go back to what our founders and our founding documents meant,” she said. “They’re quite clear that we would create law based on the God of the Bible and the 10 commandments, it’s pretty simple.”
No, Sarah, you’re pretty simple. There is nothing in our founding documents that says our laws are based on the God of the Bible and the 10 commandments. Our laws are based on the US Constitution, which preamble begins with “We the People…” not “I, the Lord.”
Again, this dunce obviously has no knowledge of American history or the Founding Fathers. She just flaps her purty little lips, and the fringe slobbers over every uninformed word that flops out.
If she looked like Rudy Giuliani in drag, no one would have paid any attention to the poor, confused ninny.

How true that is! In the alternative if she looked like Joe Liebermann (although I hear Gwen is hot for him) no one would have paid attention to this quavering queef.
Law based on the Decalogue? Like the first 3 or 4 Commandments that tell us to grovel before the Sky God? Or that one that makes it a sin to *think* of how we’d like to have our neighbour’s wife or some other property of his? America should just say no to that.
Just say No to The Palin!!!!!
@1:20: government respects freedom of religion PLUS government tells us all to pray. Nope, no contradiction there.
Here I am with my fancy pageant walking answer, Well, I would like to welcome you to America, we will tolerate you but only if you believe that Jesus will wash your sins away like me. How in any way is this any kind of tolerance for anyone else, no need to answer, it’s a pageant answer. Can this woman not tell time or something? It is way beyond time on her 15 damn minutes.
If this squeaking squatter says “world view” one more time I think I might be sick.
I have to mute the tee vee when the harpy comes on. She makes my cats yowl with her voice.
Would you rather she said ‘weltanschauung’?
Stimpson, I would rather she just keep her mouth shut and be away for good from everyone.
Yet again Palin forgets that she cut history class in high school/college. Too busy prepping for the beauty contest I guess.
How many colleges did she attend in five years? Was it six? What an empty vessel she is, albeit a very rich one. Somehow there is something wrong with that….
