Stumble ThisThree months before she was thrust into the national political spotlight, Gov. Sarah Palin was asked to handle a much smaller task: addressing the graduating class of commission students at her one-time church, Wasilla Assembly of God.
Her speech in June provides as much insight into her policy leanings as anything uncovered since she was asked to be John McCain's running mate.
Speaking before the Pentecostal church, Palin painted the current war in Iraq as a messianic affair in which the United States could act out the will of the Lord.
"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."

...anything that is virtuous or good or a noble cause, is considered God's will.
She didn't say that they are on God's errand, she basically said: Pray so that they will do good, and that our leaders will send them to Iraq for a good reason.
cheezits and rice this video scares the crap out of me.
...anything that is virtuous or good or a noble cause, is considered God's will.
And what does that have to do with our invasion of Iraq?

She's praying that our leaders and soldiers have noble intentions and virtuous actions.
Then she's clearly not praying for a Republican.
