Palin to God: Show me a door to the White House
Ed Harris11 Nov 2008
SARAH PALIN today said she will seek guidance from a higher authority over whether to run for the White House in 2012.
The defeated Republican vice-presidential candidate told how she hoped God would "show her the way" on any bid for the presidency in four years.
But the Alaska governor, who has been promoted as a possible candidate in some Republican quarters, has not yet decided to mount a campaign.
She said: "I'm like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I'm like, don't let me miss the open door. Show me where the open door is." In characteristically breathless style, the 44-year-old added: "And if there is an open door in 2012 or four years later, and if it is something that is going to be good for my family, for my state, for my nation, an opportunity for me, then I'll plough through that door."
On Fox News, the mother-of-five admitted occasionally departing from the party line: "If I went off script once in a while, I can't for the life of me remember any one time where it would have harmed [John McCain], or the ticket."
She also said she neither wanted, nor asked for, the $150,000 wardrobe that the Republican Party bankrolled for her.
"I would have been happy to have worn my own clothes from day one," she said.

It can't be her own fault now can it?

I wonder if God showed her what door to choose for her son?? Since he was caught with drugs, and was given a choice; Jail or Military service. She managed to sweep that one under the nearest rug.
Also she did the same with Trooper-gate, that was sweept far away.
So Sarah would have happily worn her own clothes from her local Thrift/Consigment shop??? I would like to go shopping there. She is now trying desperately to make the whole clothing problem disappear.
Dear God please show her a door and please let it slam on her mid way in. God help the world if she ever gets anywhere near the White House. If I were Sarah Palin, I would stick to playing the flute and killing wild animals. I would also learn to speak proper English!

It would be amusing is it wasn't so sad.
People actually believe the nonstop drivel that has been leveled at Palin from word go; from the very moment she was named - even before anyone knew anything about her.
Its called WANTING to believe the worst - then anything lesser is easier to accept.
I may be a chauvinist in my own way, but the unrelenting stream of nonsensical and, dare I say it, moronic mud-slinging only highlights the the unlikely combination of mysogyny and socialist extremist accuser's mental deficiencies rather than her own faults.
I doubt if anyone even knows what her real faults are, isolated blades of grass hidden in the weed strewn lawn that has marked her advent to the world stage.

Alright alright- I'm not a fan of her either. The wardrobe thing is tiring though. The same thing happens with other candidates and it's bogus there too, if it's not directed to the practice of funding abuse as a whole and calling out more than one person...In this case a person becomes the face of a larger problem and public thinking embraces the idea that if you can scold one person the problem will be eradicated.

God to Palin: every woman is given the key to the gates of heaven. The same key opens the gates of hell.

Bush mentions God and was demonized for it.
Palin mentions God and is demonized for it.
Obama mentions God and is called the new messiah.
Bias?
And you UK folks, who is elected her is not your problem. YOUR problem is the criminal class that is ruling your own country. Soon it will be against' their 'human rights' to even be arrested.

Door marked "exit stage right" - would that be the one?

If there is a god, perhaps the Republican party's failure to get elected again is evidence of divine intervention. Take a hint, Palin.

I'm like OK...God picked me, you know, to like show me the door....I'll run right through and rid the world of phony chosen people like Sarah. I mean, I can see the sky from my yard in the winter, and that puts me real close to heaven all of the time. In Alaska it's dark now for a reason, you know. It's like God doesn't want Sarah to see heaven....that's why she also needs glasses.

Perhaps she can see Heaven from her porch too?

She continues to attempt to lie her way out. Still denies the clothes issue and when she was running for office she praised the republican stance over the past 8 years. Whjat a creep a liar and a has been.
