You don't have a single thread of evidence that she will do any of those .. so why are you so paranoid? Give me a single scrap of evidence that I can hang my hat on ... so that I can agree with you. Don't tell me what you think ... prove it.

Or, tell me why she just scares the daylights out of you.
All one has to do is know her beliefs, she's a Christain soldier on a mission from God, just ask her.

Doesn't sound right, now, does it?
You know --- you make a good point.

Clearly, the job performance of a meth addict would be affected. He wouldn't be able to perform at the level required.

As for Ms Palin and her faith ... has she ever injected it into her decision making? Is there a single instance? How is her job being affected? All I need is a single example ... a legitimate instance in which she allowed her faith to override the will of the people.

It's not that hard .. if you're afraid of her, tell me why.

And, what does that have to do with her ability to serve as VP?

Are you telling me that a person of faith is incapable of separating his/her personal beliefs from their professional performance?

Can you give me a single example of Ms Palin having allowed her religious convictions to override her decisions?

Just one ...

If not, are you afraid that she MIGHT let it impact a decision? Is that the problem? Should we have a litmus test in which ALL candidates must be atheists?

Why does she scare you so much?

You have not heard her speak? You have not heard what she says?

That's a good question. To answer it, I'd have to know: What single important decision has she ever made?

Didn't she pray for an oil pipeline? Why is she wasting time and energy praying and asking constiuents to pray with her? Who is she to suspend reality for an indulgence in her fantasy?

How about her veto of the anti-abortion bill in Alaska? Do you think she let her religion influence THAT decision?

But, you make a VERY valid point ... you have no idea. You don't have a clue. You don't know whether or not her religion would play a factor in her decision. But, it scares you to death that it might ... so, we need to pass a new constitutional amendment ... all candidates must be atheists, and must not have attended church in the past 20 years. How's that? That solve the problem for you?

Are you talking about the infamous discussion in her church? That's suspending reality? That's indulging her fantasy?

John McCain says he prays every day .. Barak Obama says that he looks to God for guidance. Joe Biden said that it was his faith that carried him thru the period after his first wife's death. We should remove them, too?

You're really stretching .. and still you haven't provided me any proof that she allows her religion to override her logical decision making.

Honest INJUN Spare religion doesn't really bother me. I hopw she has a great faith in everything. If she keeps it out of the political forum she can nail herself to a board every night if it makes her happy. Just keep god and politics apart.
