Jewish Voters Might Want to Take a Closer Look at Palin

Sarah Palin may have some pastor problems like Obama. In all fairness, we can't be certain that she shares the views of her pastor or those who speak at her church. That being said, it's important to note that just two weeks ago, she attended a service where her pastor introduced a somewhat controversial speaker, to put it mildly. Jewish voters might want to take a closer look at Palin's core beliefs before they go into the voting booth. Here's an excerpt from the full article at: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0908/13098.html if you don't want to read the whole story

Palin’s pastor, Larry Kroon, introduced Brickner on Aug. 17, according to a transcript of the sermon on the church’s website.

“He’s a leader of Jews for Jesus, a ministry that is out on the leading edge in a pressing, demanding area of witnessing and evangelism,” Kroon said.

Brickner then explained that Jesus and his disciples were themselves Jewish.

“The Jewish community, in particular, has a difficult time understanding this reality,” he said.
Brickner’s mission has drawn wide criticism from the organized Jewish community, and the Anti-Defamation League accused them in a report of “targeting Jews for conversion with subterfuge and deception.”

Brickner also described terrorist attacks on Israelis as God's "judgment of unbelief" of Jews who haven't embraced Christianity.

"Judgment is very real and we see it played out on the pages of the newspapers and on the television. It's very real. When [Brickner's son] was in Jerusalem he was there to witness some of that judgment, some of that conflict, when a Palestinian from East Jerusalem took a bulldozer and went plowing through a score of cars, killing numbers of people. Judgment — you can't miss it."

Palin was in church that day, Kroon said, though he cautioned against attributing Brickner’s views to her.


There are many who atribute all of Reverend Wright's views to Obama, so it's only fair that we hold her to the same scrutiny, Don't forget that one of the things that made McCain run away from John Hagee was his comment that God sent Katrina to New Orleans because they were planning a Gay Pride parade that day.

We report - You decide!
