The Horror: Al Graudian Learns That Palin Sought Divine Guidance
2011-06-12
The Guardian's voyeuristic obsessive just plain sick breathless search of Palin's emails produces a smoking gun: not only does she believe in God (gasp!) but prays for divine guidance before making important decisions.
Sarah Palin ought advice from an unusual source when she was deliberating over how to frame the Alaskan state budget in 2008 -- she called on God for guidance,
And all right-thinking people know that you're supposed to call on Paul Krugman for guidance instead. Even though you know what that guidance is going to be.
Praying to God is 'unusual'. Tells you their mindset right there.
In an email written in March 2008 she said that she had been praying for direction over the financial negotiations. "I have been praying for wisdom on this ... God will have to show me what to do on the people's budget because I don't yet know the right path ... He will show me though."

in that it was sent from Palin's private yahoo account just five months before she was thrown into the national and international limelight.
Chill out, Guardian guys. She is not currently the President.
