Почитав постинги и комментарии некоторых лжеюзеров по поводу известных политических событий, я подозреваю, что скоро начнутся перебои с фольгой, ЕВПОЧЯ. Ссылок приводить не буду, ибо "если ты долго смотришь в бездну, то ..."
You do understand, do you, that under the criteria you use, the only political agenda Sarah Palin could have was preparation for the Second Coming of the Jesus Christ?
1) Doesn't the fact that Palin's church (witch-hunting, tongue-speaking, apocalypse-preparing, blaming Jews for the Palestinian terror and speaking against separation of church and states) was anything but mainstream change anything. 2) Hm, I wonder, were there in 20th century any effective examples of the dangers of the Islamic theocracy before the Islamic revolution in Iran?
1. She was a Pentecostal not long ago. Her being a Pentecostal is much closer to the current moment than Obama hanging out with Marxists and feminists.
2. So. The fact that something never happened doesn't mean that something can't happen.
Again, I'm not seriously claiming that Palin would try to bring in Apocalypse, I merely say that the idea that she would try to do this has about as much basis in reality as the idea that Obama would try to destroy democracy in USA.
1. Not if you count the good Reverend God Damn America.
2. I'm looking at probabilities. My concern that something is gonna happen is directly proportional to its probability. Precedent is a major indicator.
1. Is Rev. Wright a Marxist or a feminist? And what's the point about "God Damn America" anyway? Is not the Bible full of prophets disparaging Israel?
2. Well, good for you. How probable is somebody not knowing that Africa is not a country running for VP? Not very, but this is what happened. How probable is this woman, were she to become a president, freaking out and pushing the Red Button? Not very? Why?
You have your bias, great. But to claim that the righty conspiracy theories are sane, while the lefty ones are crazy is just pathetic. After all, Bush did a lot of things that were deemed unimaginable before they turned out to be true.
1. Reverend Wright is a radical with a mishmash of post-Marxist views.
2. I very much doubt that Palin did not know that Africa was not a continent.
3. The leftist conspiracy theories have been shown to be crazy by the last 8 years. We'll see about the rightist ones. I don't know of anything Bush did that was "deemed unimaginable."

2) If the 20th century was full of examples of apocalyptic christians acquiring power and brutally suppressing dissent, I would worry about Palin.
