Getting Roles Reversed

I saw an article on Yahoo this morning that said what I've been thinking for some time now. After hearing Gov. Palin last night (and not being impressed) the article talks about how she sees what we're doing in Iraq as "a task from God."

The quote comes from a spokesman from Americans United for Separation of Church and State:

I miss the days when pastors delivered sermons and politicians delivered political speeches," he said. "The United States is increasingly diverse religiously. The job of a president is to unify all those different people and bring them together around policy goals, not to act as a kind of national pastor and bring people to God.

I agree wholeheartedly and it looks as though Gov. Palin is continuing that line of thinking that we've seen in the Bush Administration.
