Okie doke. I just recall that no one gets thrown under the bus faster than republicans with liberal friends. I do enjoy visiting their site, thought.

Oh yes. You’re right about that. I sort of monitor those guys. I’ve found them to be different. I can’t find where they advocate a gay agenda and that alone sets them apart from all the others. Thus far, they’re solid Sarah supporters and vow that they’ll never vote democrat again. Yeehaw!

McGinnis has left Alaska as far as I know, something about a lease agreement. And Wasilla is particularly close in its social life, I have seen the same faces at my local pub for 16 years, sometimes we lose one and we gain a few but in Wasilla a newcomer sticks out as if he were dropped in day glow paint, its impossible to just “blend in” to be an Alaskan. It takes years to get that crazed cabin fever look or thousand yard stare.

I see many tells from first off the clothing, I have two pairs of pants, my work pants and my dress pants, they are both black double knee Carharts (work and casual clothing heavier than jeans) the dress ones are still new.

Alaska is also about 10 years behind when it comes to slogans and speech syntax, no we don’t still wear platform shoes and have discos up here, that was last year, but when new people come here, well they just look “new” and we automatically sense them.
And there are a few and they may not be reporters like McGinnis or writers, I think they are lone wolfs with either a passive or other personal image type of fan ideology with her, what I mean is there are stalkers of her here locally, I think any of them could be dangerous if so motivated by enough hate, I also don’t think they are from any organized group.
If there were to be any attempt upon her safety I would say it will happen here, security is something I won’t comment about because well, she is my neighbor you know. The more hate being stirred up against her the more people will look at her inner strength and resolved, Sarah Palin faces challenges, her whole life has been to face an opponent, let them build it up, it only makes her stronger.

Yep, that McGuiness has departed with a cheap shot at Sarah. I guess he expected Sarah and Todd to welcome him with open arms and windows.

He goes on to say that other folks in Wasilla were kind to him and that several don't like her, so I guess we can expect to hear them quoted “anonymously” in his hit piece book, but this other low-life has already written such a filthy piece that whatever McGuiness planned to write, it can't go lower than Gross’s chum.

John Sexton’s synopsis touches on Michael Gross’ motivations. However, it does not go far enough. Let’s say that Michael Gross is Sarah Palin’s ideological counterpart. We have seen that Gross is willing to distort the truth and fall on the sword (with legal problems of slander) to further a deeper entrenchment of the homosexual subculture in the world. I think his main target is the Catholic Church. I would expect that Gross, with his seminary background, would want a deeper entrenchment of the gay culture in the Catholic Church. I am sure that such would force such changes as gay marriage in the Church and priests (and nuns) able to marry their gay partners.

I am sure that as Sarah Palin’s ideological counterpart, Michael Gross has struck many of us as another of the many revolting characters we have seen come from the Left. His name says it all: Michael Gross, you gross us out!

Let's see if I can articulate this. Mr. Gross' seminary background and the fact that he is homosexual explains a lot. When one is raised and trained in the church and is rejected by the church, there is no hatred any greater than what that person feels. His vendetta is not with Sarah, it's with God and the Church, and she is the symbol of his rejection. Her faith convicts him of his own sins.

This is not hard for me to understand, because I know what it's like to hate the very thing that you desire. He want's Christ, but he wants his sin more. So he compounds his sins by attacking everything that symbolizes the good and acceptable to the church. Sorry if that only makes sense to me.

Spot on! I wanted to take the time to say what you so well explained. I was on the same page but time did not enable me to phrase it as well as you did.

It is the spiritual sickness that Michael Gross manifests that has taken over so many on the Left. It is their rejection of moral absolutes and God that motivates so much of their conduct. It is this blind spot in their virtue that put them on a pursuit of power that is itself a god unto them. And it is that pursuit that is so dangerous to those who they seek to control.

I occasionally hear Catholics use it now because it is so very descriptive.

It's called prayer circles in the Catholic faith..

Well, yes!

Actually, the Homo element came through the article, in spite of his desire to supress it. Its something that they cannot hide.

You are confused!

The heresy is in denying the battle that Paul and many prophets before him described.

The battle is the essence of our lives, and we engage it minute by minute.

It’s best to have solid evidence, right?

That is certainly true if you are going to expand on it; its not smart to “know” things that aren’t true ;o)
