Thank God for the Disdainful Mouthiness of the Left

Snarling out of the Left sides of their mouths, again, the MSM (main stream media) and cable-lib commentators, having heaped derision on Sarah Palin for her gender and mothering choices, causing the McCain-Palin poll numbers to bounce hugely in her favor, have now begun to attack her for her religion. Last June, Governor Palin advised people in her church to pray for our country about the war in Iraq , that we would act in a manner consistent with the will of God. The thought that God’s will could possibly condone a war that the Left opposes has sent them into a theological humanistic dither of apoplectic proportions.

"There is no God, to have a will, to favor a war, to free the oppressed — and all of the biblical prophets to the contrary be damned," they have pontificated. (Author’s free translation.)

Others have suggested that the real problem is not that they do not believe in God, but that they believe that they are god, the media gods, that their Creation myth pronouncements of "Let there be President Barack Obama, and it was so" and "they saw President Obama, and it was very good," are the words of god, that all people must bow down before them and worship the one-eyed glowing idol in their living rooms upon which they appear, and that all other beliefs — such as the heretical McCain-Palin interlopers, who believe in that other God – are abominations.

I’m sure that the female, working, Catholic and other religiously-oriented and socially conscious voters in the heartland states (i.e., the swing states in this election) will find it in their hearts to forgive the media attacks on their faith and their belief in the will of God for a better world, but having forgiven their oppressors they are being driven to vote McCain-Palin.

Well, at least the Left still have their irreligion and anti-gun moral superiority to cling to.
