Not My Will But Thine

Charlie Gibson, glasses perched on the end of his nose, stares down Sarah Palin and asks “Are we fighting a holy war”. The reference is to a Plain quote, clipped and out of context where she prays that we are fighting a war that is God’s will. Newt Gingrich has assembled a most amazing series of clips by past Presidents who prayed the same prayer. Perhaps Charlie should watch it. My guess is he won’t.

Here’s the Newt’s wewb page with the video too.

    My first thought – he was talking down to her the entire time. More like an inquisition than an interview.

    It appears Charlie became a bit flustered when Palin invoked the words of Abraham Lincoln, who by most accounts is the greatest President in our nation’s history. I often wonder why left leaning media types possess so much condescending vitriol towards regular Americans such as Sarah Palin. I guess it is bad business to support an upwardly mobile government reformer and middle class hockey mom of five, who has shattered the metaphorical glass ceiling that the Democrats have so desperately relied on for decades. Sexism is on display and in full effect courtesy of the DNC attack machine, as the whole world watches.
