Latest Palin folly – Pledge of Allegiance

Per information she provided on a 2006 Alaskan gubernatorial candidates’ questionnaire, she thinks:

The Founding Fathers wrote the Pledge of Allegiance.
11. Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?
SP: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.

And, I’m sure Peter and Paul spoke in the King’s English and wrote the King James Version, too.

Beyond that, it’s interesting to note that on many of the questions, she’s the only one who bothered to even reply!

Anal-ness? High suck-up level even for a Religious Righters?

To me, it's another sign she is over her head as governor, let alone vice presidential nominee. Nobody else was so anal as to be minutely worried about all those questions, despite the number people competing in a packed race.

Oh, and somebody better alert her boyfriend John McCain. She opposes the extension of gambling.
