The Palin Scandal in The Living Room
By Bruce Wilson

In the aftermath of Barack Obama's substantial victory over John McCain in the 2008 US Presidential Election Obama's supporters are justifiably aglow and proud of their efforts, the Democratic Party's management of the election and the strength and sophistication of the Obama campaigns ground game. There remains one peculiar, systemic failure in the election that might seem minor in context of the Democratic Party's triumphal return to the White House and its consolidated control of both branches of Congress, but Sarah Palin's religious beliefs and associations should have provoked a national scandal given the possibility that remained, even as of yesterday, that Palin might become, as a vice president, a heartbeat away from the United States presidency.

The lack of scandal is itself scandalous.

Below, in a new 10 minute documentary video, I examine, in the context of its heavily anti-Semitic undertone, the New Apostolic Reformation's recently launched program encouraging and equipping Christians to begin taking control of business and finance: "The Seven Mountains Mandate" (or "7M Mandate").

High level leaders in that movement directly tied to vice presidential candidate Palin were on public record urging Christians to 'infiltrate' key sectors of society such as government and business and proposing a program of religious and social cleansing in which entire population groups would convert to the form of Christianity espoused by the New Apostolic Reformation or else be 'displaced', driven from 'the land'.

Thank you for putting it together. Very disturbing. They do all share the same abnormal phrases.

6. take a swastika and change it into a cross and you have the same

7. Here's what I find creepy
It's amazing how much their plan resembles the antichrist system that the evangelicals live in such fear of.

Reminds me- I'll have to make a point of watching Impy Jack (my favorite religious snake oil salesman) this week. I can't wait to hear his take on the mooslem getting elected President (if he even mentions it- he didn't mention it when Katrina wiped out New Orleans)
