While we were fuming over the McCain hijacking of the Troopergate investigation, she got a call from MSNBC. They asked if she'd come on Keith Olbermann's show tonight to talk about the witch hunter'. The witch hunter, aka Pastor Muthee, was the guest pastor from Kenya that appeared at Palin's church, The Wasilla Assembly of God, and "prayed over" Sarah to help her become governor. Muthee began his life in ministry in Africa by hunting down a local woman named Mama Jane after proclaiming her a witch.
According to the Christian Science Monitor, six months of fervent prayer and research identified the source of the witchcraft as a local woman called Mama Jane, who ran a "divination" centre called the Emmanuel Clinic. Her alleged involvement in fortune-telling and the fact that she lived near the site of a number of fatal car accidents led Pastor Muthee to publicly declare her a witch responsible for the town's ills, and order her to offer up her soul for salvation or leave Kiambu.
declared Mama Jane a witch, the townspeople became suspicious and began to turn on her, demanding that she be stoned. Public outrage eventually led the police to raid her home, where they fired gunshots, killing a pet python which they believed to be a demon. After the witch hunting incident, Muthee founded the World Faith Church, also known as the "Prayer Cave." The Prayer cave has birthed more than 400 churches across Africa - in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Sudan and Rwanda. While Palin was mayor of Wasilla, Muthee came to speak at her church. Here's what Sarah Palin has to say about the experience, captured on video taken in the church. Keep in mind, this quote didn't come from her long ago past. "As I was mayor and Pastor Muthee was here and he was praying over me, and you know how he speaks and he's so bold. "And I'm thinking, this guy's really bold, he doesn't even know what I'm going to do, he doesn't know what my plans are. And he's praying not "oh Lord if it be your will may she become governor," no, he just prayed for it. "So, again, very very powerful, coming from this church." Muthee has spoken at the Wasilla Assembly of God church no less than 10 times, including the time he prayed over then Mayor Sarah Palin, giving her the divine shortcut to governorship. He is scheduled for multiple speaking engagements in Wasilla this week. Touching lives for total community transformation, thereby taking cities and nations. Most of us would like our cities and nation to stay just where they are, thankyouverymuch. When Shannyn was talking in a serious, businesslike way about coordinating with a major media outlet to discuss the witch hunter', it struck me how absurd this is. Our governor believes in the power of a guy who believes that demons live in pythons, and witches cause traffic accidents. She believes that a Kenyan witch-hunter prayed her into office. Ladies and Gentlemen, behold the Republican candidate for Vice President of the United States of America, and tell me what that says about the Presidential candidate who nominated her.
Meanwhile, grab a beer, or some popcorn, and tune in to Keith Olbermann's show tonight, hear the conversation with Shannyn, and marvel at the frightening absurdity that we've come to know as Sarah Palin.
Sarah Palin 392 responses to "Witch Hunter that Prayed Palin into Office is Coming Backto Wasilla!" I am sorry to see the forum start up because I did enjoy all the comments and now, it looks as though all the responses must be on the forum. There have been 25 comments in just the last 15 or 20 minutes, so I wouldn't worry just yet. AKM 19 09 2008 MJC (15:35:35) : What channel is Keith Oberman on? Has anyone else but me read Margaret Atwood's "The Handmaid's Tale"? If people vote these people in after the last couple of weeks of watching and listening to their antics. Someone posted a link to all of the television stations - now out there in the kazillion comments - could you please post it again. Surely there are provisions for requiring an emergency session of the legislature! " I don't believe there is the political will in Alaska for an emergency session. However, it's looking like the investigation will continue with what information they have. AKM 19 09 2008 The Watcher (15:41:16) : This is REALLY scary. Or maybe this is the "base" they are trying to cater to?
Mad Skillz, son (15:42:15) : At least we know she's isn't racist. "Oh, Sarah believes all people have the right to believe what they want, so she was just being open and hospitable to him."

I'm actually willing to believe that if her and McCain make it into office that God doesn't exist. Let's hope the nation can have a good laugh and move on as well. People's religous views and practices really do no t bear on their qualifications for a job, unless it leads them to be dangerous. It smells a bit of bigotry, and it will diminish this blog to go down this road. Her incompetence and meglomania in her public life should by all means be discussed, but this topic is a distraction. I thought about this, and did not post on the witch hunter when it first came to my attention. I do so now because, a: it is being picked up by the MSM and is going to become part of the national conversation. b: because I do believe, as you say, that it may lead her "to be dangerous". This isn't just an issue of her personal faith, this is an alarm bell for how her personal faith informs her world view, her mindset and her decision making ability. AKM 19 09 2008 Engine Nighthawk Palin (15:49:55) : Sorry, typo in my last statement. this woman is an endless source of motivation to get Obama elected!
Shout it with me: Sarah Palin can never sleep in the White House because ... Have her tell Pastor Muthee to pray away the financial crisis! That way, McCain won't have to remember what SEC stands for, and Sarah will have a solid accomplishment under her belt for her next grilling from Sean Hardball' Hannity. While he is at it, maybe Muthee could also pray away the subpoenas.
html 19 09 2008 Susie in Jersey a/k/a "A Blizzard of Words" Palin (15:53:26) : Mikeylikesit2 are you from F/T? If the Witch Hunter prays Palin into the Whitehouse, does this mean that Billy Graham will not be the official Pastor called upon to the Whitehouse anymore? Her incompetence and meglomania are equally as dangerous. The three together in a VP candidate are unacceptable as a leader of this nation.

If she believes god put her in the governor's mansion, that is relevant. Her religious fervor would certainly color her decisions. hold up Mad Skillz, I wouldn't be so sure about that yet. But, the GOP doesn't have the best record on diversity as of the late. There is no doubt in my mind that those views will go into the white house with her. I do believe that the public has a right to know when a republican nominee believes in a minister who chases demons out of snakes and little old ladies. I do believe we have the right to be worried when she believes that war in Iraq is a task from God. I for one am just venting because I am so sick of the hypocrisy of the Repubs. Stocks surge as Feds act Wall Street rallies as the government moves to stem the financial market crisis. The Dow jumps almost 780 points in two sessions - the best run since 2000.
I am sure the interview will be posted on YouTube or HuffingtonPost or here or somewhere so you can see it for free. This is not my blog, and I respect the right of free speech for others to post entries here that are not in agreement with my own views.
Alaska Real, written by "a 20-something Tlingit/Athabascan woman" known as Writing Raven, tackles this one head-on today. com, where it is an editor's pick in the Open Salon, it's called "Todd Palin's bloodlines." After background on variations of what , 1/16 or 1/8 Native blood can mean, the writer gets to her point. To be very clear - I absolutely do not believe tha...
