Why didn't Sarah Palin walk out of her church?
David Brickner, the executive director of Jews for Jesus was at her church, Palin was there. Brickner was talking about God's judgment on the Jews who didn't accept Jesus. He said that God punished those Jews who didn't accept Jesus through various means, one of those means being terrorism. While Palin was sitting in the pew, he said the following:

“Judgment is very real, and we see it played out on the pages of the newspapers and on the television,” said Brickner, according to a transcript posted on the church’s Web site. “It’s very real. When Isaac was in Jerusalem he was there to witness some of that judgment—some of that conflict—when a Palestinian from East Jerusalem took a bulldozer and went plowing through a score of cars, killing numbers of people. Judgment—you can’t miss it.”

The McCain campaign said that Palin didn't know he was going to be there and didn't agree with what was said though Brickner has been there before.

Now, why doesn't she just walk out? Walk away from that church then? Isn't that the question always asked about Obama?

4. Every day for about three straight weeks, if you really wanted to even up the score.
I'll never forgive the MSM for that endless assault.

7. Rachael was talking to some preacher from Texas on this
he basically said that it shouldn't be an issue because Sarah can't control who the guest speaker is at her church. NO, she can't control the church scheduling of speakers, however, she could get her butt up out of her chair (they are chairs and not pews) and walk out if she didn't buy into it.

according to the MSM who attacked him continuously for 3 weeks.

Hey have we heard any audio from this church like they did to Wright? What? No! You are kidding!:sarcasm:

10. Radical AGO / Pentecostal cults are a true world danger
The media has so far scratched the surface.
