It’s FR. It takes 3 attempts to beat the white screen of oops.

"Says the Monitor, 'Muthee held a crusade that “brought about 200 people to Christ'.”

And the problem is.............?

[oprahstheantichrist]

Is it just me or does anyone else find it amazing that, taken at face value, it now appears that BOTH Obama and Sarah have spiritual "roots" if you will, originating from Kenya?

Uh, what are the odds of that?

OMG...she told a personal anectdote about a visiting pastor to a church audience!!!! And she has a tanning bed in her house!!!!!!!

Meanwhile, BHO is FRIENDS with a terrorist who tried to blow people up.

I think you got it a little mixed up. It was as two degrees of separation type of thing.

When the visiting Preacher at her church was a missionary in Kenya, he found that he was competing for his congregants against a local witch (kizee). He therefore asked the church to pray to fight against her influence. Imagine that, a church praying against ignorant local superstition.

Apparently in desperation it becomes one more attempt to disparage Gov. Palin.

[Quicksilver]

Yeah, especially since it was Pelosi who said that Øbama was a gift from God.

I would much rather have this guy pray over me than to have Pelosi's proclamation!

[Riodacat]

Hopefully she’ll use him to advise her on domestic and foreign policy as well.. ;)

Fascinating . . .

that they are on

OPPOSITE SIDES

OF THE GOOD/EVIL

thing . . . even there.

[JavaJumpy]

Oh, it’s ‘out there’ all right - and HuffPo claims to have video.

[possumdawg]

How to twist meanings? This article tries to somehow connect Gov. Plain with a man that appears to be crazy based on our Western Worldview, but in Kenya and other countries, the belief in witchcraft common place.

I may have missed something here, but I see Gov. Palin just being moved by this man and his ministry. Did I really miss something?

I don’t see this as being a big deal. I’ve been prayed for by various pastors, guest speakers, and others in the course of my life. I can express thanks for their prayers without knowing every single detail of their lives or performing a background check. In turn, I’ve prayed for other people who may not necessarily endorse my every opinion and action.

If anyone wants to hear Palin’s words on this, it’s around the 9:40 mark in the same video where the media erroneously claimed she said Iraq was a task from God. All these words were spoken in a church, not proclaimed during an official press conference or anything. And alarmingly, a local pastor actually prays for her later in the video as well! ;)
