Sarah Palin: Coin Controversy?
Sarah Palin's Facebook Notes ^ | November 11, 2009 | Sarah Palin

Posted on 11/11/2009 4:29:47 PM PST by Virginia Ridgerunner

It is stunning to read and hear about this “coin controversy.” At a recent speech in Milwaukee I discussed the troubling fact that we too often move God to the side in our public life, and gave as an example the shift of the words “In God We Trust” to the edge of the dollar coin. My comments were not about this President or this Congress – this change predated them. I was merely making a point about a disturbing trend in our country, after which I moved on to discuss some encouraging trends. People who try to read more into such straightforward comments are working hard to find a controversy where there is none.

It’s a real shame how she can’t even say anything anymore without the media making a fuss out of nothing. The media shows me more and more everyday who they are terrified can beat Obama. I don’t give a rats behind about polls, I look at FACTS. Show me anyone else besides Sarah that receives this amount of scrutiny

Is it wise to keep God on edge?

God is back in front, where He belongs.

Should I feel bad because I don’t see this as a big deal?

These are well-known titles of W. C. Fields movies. Errr, kind of well-known.
