"Our national leaders are sending them [troops] out on a task that is from God," she said. "That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that plan is God's plan."

Right. So God has the responsibility to generate the plan for war.  How's that coming God?  You seem be missing some of these vague milestones, God?  Do you have all the resources you need, God?  I'd like to send you out on some skill-enhancement training for improved project management, God, I think it iwill help the world.   

Palin told graduating students of the church's School of Ministry, "What I need to do is strike a deal with you guys." As they preached the love of Jesus throughout Alaska, she said, she'd work to implement God's will from the governor's office, including creating jobs by building a pipeline to bring North Slope natural gas to North American markets.

"God's will has to be done in unifying people and companies to get that gas line built, so pray for that," she said.
 

Right.  So her job is to realize God's will through building an oil pipeline.  The coicidence she's a Republican aand her husband works on oil rigs--a mere coincidence. Got it.
 

"I can do my job there in developing our natural resources and doing things like getting the roads paved and making sure our troopers have their cop cars and their uniforms and their guns, and making sure our public schools are funded," she added. "But really all of that stuff doesn't do any good if the people of Alaska's heart isn't right with God."
 

So.  She'll work to serve the people.  But only the people who subscribe to her god.  Great.  Good idea.

Does anyone watch the tv show Mad Men on AMC? It's a drama about 1960's ad men. The theme music is RJ2D but during the show they normally they stick to Dean Martin and Rosemary Clooney type stuff. During the opening scene of tonight's show they played The Infanta. I thought it kind of strange.
