Huffington Post reports that on June 8, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) addressed the graduating class of commission students at the Wasilla Assembly of God church. During that address, Palin portrayed the Iraq was as a quest decreed by God, and said that U.S. soldiers were carrying out “God’s plan”:
Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God. That’s what we have to make sure that we’re praying for, that there is a plan and that that plan is God’s plan.
During that speech, Palin also promoted a $30-billion natural gas pipeline project, stating, “God’s will has to be done in unifying people and companies to get that gas line built.”

Gramm: Unlike The Rest Of Americans, McCain Supporters Aren’t ‘Economically Illiterate’ ‘Whiners’
Yesterday, Gramm stood by his comments that America was a nation of whiners, but made an exception for McCain supporters. From his remarks to supporters at a Financial Services Roundtable in Minnesota:

If you’re sitting here today, you’re not economically illiterate and you’re not a whiner, so I’m not worried about who you’re going to vote for.
Rove: Bush Had Foreign Policy Experience Because Texas Is Near Mexico
In recent days, conservatives have tried to justify the choice of Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) as Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) running mate by arguing that she has foreign policy experience for no other reason than that her state is close to Russia. In fact, Washington Times columnist Frank Gaffney today argued that Palin knows foreign policy “by osmosis“:

In fact, Washington Times columnist Frank Gaffney today argued that Palin knows foreign policy “by osmosis“:
Speaking of geography, Alaskan territory is also along the trajectory of ballistic missiles launched eastward out of Stalinist North Korea. For that reason, among others, Alaska’s Fort Greely was selected as the site for the principal U.S. ground-based defense against such missiles.
As that state’s governor, Sarah Palin would know more by osmosis – if nothing else – about the necessity for U.S. anti-missile systems than either Messrs. Obama or Biden.

Yesterday on Fox’s Hannity and Colmes, Karl Rove took this argument a step further, claiming that President Bush was qualified to be commander-in-chief for a similar reason: because Texas was close to Mexico:
COLMES: And Obama has more foreign policy experience than George Bush had when Bush…
ROVE: Alan, no, no, no. George Bush — George Bush was Governor and he dealt with the Mexican border.
COLMES: He didn’t know the general — general of Pakistan.
Whiplash!: Pat Buchanan flip-flops on Palin in record time
Early Friday morning, when Sarah Palin’s name was floated as a possible VP pick, Pat Buchanan and Joe Scarborough couldn’t have been any more against it: Scarborough compares Palin to Harriet Miers, saying it would be “condescending” towards women and a huge “political faux pas,” while Pat Buchanan says the pick could be spell potential “disaster.”

“I will say this, and let’s just be really blunt about it, if John McCain’s campaign thinks that by simply appointing a woman they are going to get Hillary Clinton’s voters, that is condescending and insulting to women and it is a terrible terrible political faux pas. This will be a mistake.” […]
“You know, it sounds, and I know I’m going to get blasted for this, it sounds like a Harriet Miers decision, ‘let’s get a woman, whether she’s experienced or not’…”
