Backpedaling? Yeah, there's some backpedalling going on alright, but it's not by Sarah Palin. It's by the AP and folks who distorted that prayer and took Sarah Palin's position out of context. Guess what, when Arriana Huffington herself is more fair and balanced than you are, you're probably grotesquely underinformed. Huffington actually provides the WHOLE prayer:

Quote:
“Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God,” she exhorted the congregants. “That’s what we have to make sure that we’re praying for: that there is a plan and that that plan is God’s plan.”
The amateur dKos hatchetjob that AP and Charlie Gibson referred to said this:

Quote:
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told ministry students at her former church that the United States sent troops to fight in the Iraq war on a “task that is from God.”…

“Our national leaders are sending them out on a task that is from God,” she said. “That’s what we have to make sure that we’re praying for, that there is a plan and that plan is God’s plan.”
What did they cut out? Oh that's right, the actual part that proves that Palin was paraphrasing Lincoln when she prayed that "our leaders" are on the same side as divine providence.

It was a stretch of an attack to begin with, but why use something so transparently out-of-context when you could cite her not-so-conservative fiscal record? Oh yeah, because they're ridiculous amateurs and more than a little desperate.

And yet you're prepared to vote for a condescending college professor whose only manifest proof of ability was how thoroughly he milked his elected position to funnel contracts to convicted arab powerbrokers? LMAO.
