Palin's Prayer Leader Hinted Terrorist Attack Could Make Her President
Daily Kos - Troutfishing's diary ::

In the final weeks of the 2008 presidential election, one of the religious leaders closest to Sarah Palin hinted that the Alaska governor might soon get an unexpected career boost... from a terrorist attack.
<snip>
In June, Schmidt warned that if Palin were nominated as the 2012 GOP presidential candidate the result would be "catastrophic."

Fueling Schmidt's obvious hostility may be an astonishing but little noticed September 2008 "prophecy" from Palin's prayer group leader of almost two decades, Alaska evangelist Mary Glazier, that seemed to envision John McCain winning the 2008 election but then being killed soon thereafter, tragically, in a terrorist attack that would leave Palin to succeed McCain as president.
<snip>
On September 22, with the 2008 presidential election little more than five weeks away, Glazier sent a prophetic "Warning of Imminent Attack" out through her prayer network . Glazier later released a slightly sanitized version but her original "warning" concerned an "imminent" terrorist attack that could leave American in mourning with Sarah Palin "stepping into an office that she was mantled for."

Sarah Palin has been close to Mary Glazier throughout the entire course of Palin's political career.
<snip>
Mary Glazier is one of two religious leaders (along with Thomas Muthee) associated with Sarah Palin who claim to have successfully fought witches. Glazier has described a campaign of "prayer warfare" which she says her prayer group used to drive a woman, whom Glazier claimed was a witch, out of the state of Alaska. As Glazier told the Christian magazine SpiritLed Woman, for a 2003 article, "As we continued to pray against the spirit of witchcraft, her incense altar caught on fire, her car engine blew up, she went blind in her left eye, and she was diagnosed with cancer."

Glazier is an apostle in C. Peter Wagner's International Coalition of Apostles. Her fellow apostles include retired Col. Jim Ammerman, who controls 6-8 percent of the chaplains in the US military and the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, President of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, who has helped shape the Democratic "Third Way" platform on culture war issues such as abortion. The NHCLC has just formed a strategic alliance with John Hagee's Christians United For Israel. Mary Glazier also serves on the elite Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders, and is credited with having brought the movement to Alaska.

That last paragraph should give everyone the willies! (Much more in the article with links.)

You better believe Palin still follows prophecies from Glazier that probably predict she will make her way into the Presidency.

5. I doubt it.
The MSM missed or ignored this the first time around.

The last paragraph is scary because there are a lot of little known connections to that religious group.

7. Yep. Like...
"the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, President of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, who has helped shape the Democratic "Third Way" platform on culture war issues such as abortion."




"...the Karl Rove of Latino evangelical strategy."

8. Thanks!
I love troutfishing's diaries. He and dogemperor compiled a lot of interesting primary source material on Mary Glazier and her merry band of dominionists back in '08. None of it got much play then, but hopefully, without the distraction of the primary season, this will seep into consciousness.

9. The MSM really needs to be picking up on these Palin behind-the-scenes associations
If the wingnut frenzy over Palin's book is considered news, then this has to be considered just as important.
