Has Mooselini "Crossed" A Line???

[KharmaTrain]

I couldn't help notice that the former governor of Alaska took to the stage in a major political rally wearing a large crucifix.



I'm curious if anyone can recall a prominant political figure who wore a religious item at a major political rally

Discuss...

4. Can't Find A Good Pic Link...

This was at the "rally" the other day...I'll keep looking...but the Pic on the WAPO story should have a video cap pic.

2. madonna was fashionable about twenty years ago.

Sarah must be watching reruns of American Bandstand circa 1985.

13. I immediately thought of Madonna too

[beac]

16. LOL. Me too.

My guess is she stole the outfit from the wardrobe department of from her upcoming movie "Desperately Seeking Suckers". She likes them free clothes, you betcha!

3. Mooselini crossed the line so long ago

She can't even see it from her house anymore.

8. Duzy....

...:rofl:

9. GOOD ONE! That was my thought. She crossed it looooong ago! n/t

5. Next, she's bring a couple of 2X4s and nail herself to them.

Her zombie-followers would love it.

6. This Jesus crap is beyond ridiculous.

If Jesus was running for office, they would burn him in effigy. Please, a long-haired hippy talking about taking from the rich and giving to the poor? After all, that is socialism.

That whore makes me sick. If reincarnation exists, I hope to hell she comes back as a wolf in Alaska.

10. Don't forget also, that this Jesus guy was a Jew all his life.

How does that square with these right-wing loonies?

21. Yes.....A Radical Rabbi !

7. The thing to remember is, There is no line.

There is no line she can cross. We've given her complete carte blanche to do and say whatever she wants, anytime she wants.

11. All I know is....

If the public ever votes this ditz into national office I want the ramifications of her term in office stamped directly onto McCain's personal history.

If it hadn't been for the "maverick" cravenly caving in to the religious right Palin would have remained a footnote in Alaskan politics and that's it.

12. As an Agnostic, speaking for myself only, I don't see an issue.

If a Jewish politician wants to wear a necklace with the Star of David, that is fine. If I want to wear a Darwin Fish pin and a Flying Spaghetti Monster charm on a necklace while running for office, I can't be offended by her wearing the cross. I think her personal motivations are questionable, but she can wear it all she wants, regardless of how I feel about her questionable fashion sense (long necklaces and a pin... not so much.)

However, for her to be intellectually honest, she really needs to wrap a big 'ole American flag around that cross.

The real horror is seeing these two in a picture together. Talk about an Intergalactic Black Hole of Intelligence. I bet those two together really sucked the oxygen out of the room. :scared:

17. Well,

I do have a problem with office-holders - or candidates - who believe in fairy tales. I long for the day that religious belief is negative, not a positive, in politics - as it is in most Europeans countries.

[Kerrytravelers]

19. I second that!

[fishwax]

14. is it a crucifix or just a cross?

I can't tell from the picture, but it looks to me like a cross. Still a religious symbol, of course--I'm just clarifying.

[Fumesucker]

20. I saw a bigger picture yesterday, it's a cross, not a crucifix... n/t

[MilesColtrane]

15. She's got something even bigger planned for 2012.

"Father, forgive 'em for they don't know what they're doin'...you betcha! *wink*"

18. Fucking Latte spew all over my keyboard!

:rofl:

22. The thing about that cross is this

the most unchristian people always push "their" so called religious views out front. The more evil they are the more they cover them selves with religious icons.
