Sarah Palin is a liar. Want evidence? See below.

Sarah Palin on God:

GIBSON: You said recently, in your old church, "Our national leaders are sending U.S. soldiers on a task that is from God." Are we fighting a holy war?

PALIN: You know, I don't know if that was my exact quote.

GIBSON: Exact words.

PALIN: But the reference there is a repeat of Abraham Lincoln's words when he said -- first, he suggested never presume to know what God's will is, and I would never presume to know God's will or to speak God's words.

But what Abraham Lincoln had said, and that's a repeat in my comments, was let us not pray that God is on our side in a war or any other time, but let us pray that we are on God's side.

That's what that comment was all about, Charlie. And I do believe, though, that this war against extreme Islamic terrorists is the right thing. It's an unfortunate thing, because war is hell and I hate war, and, Charlie, today is the day that I send my first born, my son, my teenage son overseas with his Stryker brigade, 4,000 other wonderful American men and women, to fight for our country, for democracy, for our freedoms.

Charlie, those are freedoms that too many of us just take for granted. I hate war and I want to see war ended. We end war when we see victory, and we do see victory in sight in Iraq.

1. One Lincoln had it right - "Cocky wacko" - that was Lincoln Chafee, though.

2. I have no doubt God would agree with that.

And I'm an atheist!

:patriot:

3. I love how she blatantly contradicts herself...

"I would never presume to know God's will or to speak God's words" doesn't quite gel with the PRESUMPTION that "U.S. soldiers (are) on a task that is from God."

4. And she does it in full view of the American people

with no shame, no fear.

And she may become vice-president to a 72-year-old three-time cancer survivor because it's very possible--even probable--that enough Americans don't care about being lied to like this.
