Yes, Sarah
Palin and I are sisters in the Lord, and I believe she is an
extremely intelligent lady, with a huge heart for our nation. But
somewhere along the way, she checked true wisdom at the door and
failed in the "good judgment" category. She said in a recent speech
that we need to have courage to do what is right. So here
goes.
Found at the Drudge Report online, is a link to
a Boston Herald article that quotes Sarah as having said,
"Sounds pretty good," in response to being asked about running
with Mitt Romney in 2012. She then confirmed her statement,
when questioned later by the news source, saying, "I have a lot of
respect for Mitt." Click Here
Mitt Romney, the father of
homosexual marriage in Massachusetts, is who pushed that state
into state ran health care, as well as having
furthered abortion in the state while governor there.
He is a huge Rhino.
Listen, we have all seen what happened
with Scott Brown. The fact is, no good conservative is going to be
voted into the Governor's office, by the majority of Massachusetts
voters. It is no different than the situation with California's
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. Why would we, as a conservative
people, want for the office of the presidency, a liberal state's
has-been! And why would the darling of the conservatives, Sarah
Palin, throw her support behind such a liberal Republican? I don't
get it.
And ya know what, I don't have to get it. And neither
do you. We don't have to get inside of Sarah's head and figure out
why she is doing this. We simply have to recognize it and be better
than our liberal neighbors and say "NO" to liberal supporters,
even when the supporter is someone who we love and admire and
have supported so strongly.
God has a lot to say about
hypocrisy. If we continue to support Sarah, while she supports
liberalism, via Mitt Romney, then we are guilty of hypocrisy. By
this I mean that we all spoke up against the people who blindly
followed Obama. Fact is, we would be no better if we blindly
follow Sarah, no matter what she does. The Lord also speaks agaisnt
the "Give us a king" (or queen in Sarah's case) mentality. Those who
voted Obama in, did so because they lacked faith in God and wanted a
king to save them from this, that and the other thing. Well, we are
to have our faith in the Lord, not in a mere human being. And we
are not to elevate anyone to such a place that we cannot walk
away from the person, if he or she goes way
off-course.
Fact is the Sarah ship has gone way off-course
and I have now jumped ship. God loves her and I do too, but I am no
longer on board with Sarah Palin. I will be the first one back on
deck, should she retract her statement. But this is just too serious
of a mess-up for me to continue my support of her. We must stand on
the side of truth, where our Lord wants us to always
be.
