Sarah Palin joined Fox News's Bill O'Reilly recently to condemn the critics of the National Day of Prayer, saying that the Judeo-Christian belief was the basis for American law and should continue to be used as a guiding force for creating future legislation. According to Palin, the recent backlash against the National Day of Prayer is proof that some people are trying to enact a "fundamental transformation of America" and to "revisit and rewrite history" in order to shift the Christian nation away from its spiritual roots. Palins's advice: "Go back to what our founders and our founding documents meant -- they're quite clear -- that we would create law based on the God of the bible and the ten commandments. "What in hell scares people about talking about America's foundation of faith?" Palin continued. "It is that world view that involves some people being afraid of being able to discuss our foundation, being able to discuss God in the public square, that's the only thing I can attribute it to." Palin also criticized the decision to dis-invite the Rev. Franklin Graham from a Pentagon prayer service over concerns about his past inflammatory rhetoric about Islam, saying it was driven by a desire to be overly politically correct.

And who gets to be the final arbitrator on the proper procedure for keeping the sabbath day holy?
I think Sarah's Pentecostal church would be the ultimate authority.
So, you're telling me that if I spent my sabbath at a Catholic church (which is how I spent them until about the age of 22) or on the golf course or watching ESPN (which is how I spend them now), either way I am guilty of a federal crime?
Stupidity isn't a crime. If it were, many of the posters here on LF could be charged!
