Report: Palin Asked Rick Warren For Advice

GOP VP nominee Sarah Palin called influential pastor Rick Warren earlier this week to ask for advice on how to handle the criticism that has come her way, The Hill reports.

In a California radio interview, Warren said that Palin had called him to seek help in dealing with the "unfair, unjust" attacks she said she believes had been launched at her since being tapped as John McCain's running mate. Warren recounted the conversation, saying he responded by saying, "the question I asked her was 'how can I pray for you?'"

Warren said Palin asked him to "send her some bible verses on how do you deal with the unfair, unjust attacks and the mean-spirited criticism that comes in."

(1) should a pastor, a religious person really be stating on the airways when someone calls and asks them for help? (2) if she needed some spiritual guidance why didn''t she ask the head of her own church where she is known?

A cynical me wonders if she wanted this to get out into the airways.

Amazing how people will attack this woman because she wants guidance from God, notice that she ask for %u201Csend her some Bible verses", she is looking to God for answers, which by the way is the best place to go to for any answer! And one more thing, these same people that are attacking her are the same people that can justify the murder of 4,000 little children day in, day out for the last 20 years. What a track record to run on!

Scary Sarah is not a woman who should be a heartbeat away from the presidency. Would she ask Rick Warren or God before starting WWIII?

According to CNN''s average of national polls, John McCain currently holds a 1-point lead over Obama, 46-45 percent.

The poll of polls, released Thursday afternoon, is composed of the following five national general election surveys: Fox News/Opinion Dynamics (September 8-9), NBC/Wall Street Journal (September 6-8), American Research Group (September 6-8), Gallup (September 8-10), and Diageo/Hotline (September 8-10). It does not have a sampling error.

If Palin can take the heat, she needs to get back in the kitchen.

She is the ultimate hypocrite. She offered nothing but cheap shots and insults directed at Obama for the last two weeks.

Now that he punches back she starts crying like a girl.

She is not presidential or vp material.

Maybe when she grows up and learn how to have a substantative conversation she will be seriously considered.

Everyone should be able to support the candidate and the views they want. But the nastiness about Palin and her Church by some in these BLOGS is beyond nasty.

It has been learned that Sarah "Hockey Mom" Palin is upset with the "attacks" on her by the evil, cowardly Whimpo-crats, the evil, liberal press, and nasty, evil Progressives everywhere!

She has asked her pastor to send her some Bible verses to help her contend with these supposed evil attacks.

Considering the "lie, deceit, smear" campaign being waged by the neocon Fascist Nazi Republicans, it might be best to send the McCain campaign some Bible verses too, among them:

"Blessed are the MEEK, for they shall inherit the earth."
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall attain peace."
"It is easier for a camel to fit thru the eye of a needle, than for a RICH man enter heaven."
"Thou shalt NOT bear FALSE WITNESS!"

SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!!
sig heil, WHICH HOUSE ARE WE SLEEPING IN TONIGHT, McCain!!!!
sig heil, YOU GOTTA HAVE FAITH!!!, Palin!!!!
