    I consider all of those Calvanist churches (Assembly of God) to be hate groups... so yes.

    They're not christian at all - they're whole religion is set up around hating gay people... that's it.

    The Westboro Baptists and the Assembly of God are pretty much the same thing...

    And you know all of those abortion clinic bombers think she is the best thing since sliced moose meat...

    Yes indeed.

    What attention has been paid in the mass media to this political connection( Alaska party) has centered largely on the “Alaska first” motto of the party, which stands in formal contradiction to the McCain campaign’s slogan of “country first.” Far more significant, however, is the fact that the AIP is the Alaskan affiliate of the Constitution Party, an ultra- rightist electoral party that emerged out of the militia movement, anti-tax extremism and the Christian fundamentalist right.

    The Constitution Party puts forward a program that can be accurately described as theocratic fascism. Its commits the party “to restore American jurisprudence to its original Biblical common-law foundations.” This is the program commonly identified with a movement known as “dominion theology,” which demands the subordination of every government and institution to Christian fundamentalism, not only in the US but all over the world, together with the outlawing of all other religions and the suppression of atheism.

    In addition to establishing severe criminal penalties, including death, for homosexuals, doctors who perform abortions and adulterers, the believers in this Biblical state also propose a social agenda that dovetails completely with the aims of the most reactionary sections of big business. It calls for the elimination of virtually every social reform instituted over more than a century, including minimum-wage laws, Social Security, environmental and health and safety regulations, public education and virtually any form of public assistance.

    There is little doubt that Palin is extremely close to these elements. Revelations that have surfaced in recent weeks include the fact that she ran for mayor of Wasilla, a town of barely 5,000, on a right-wing Christian agenda opposing abortion and promoting gun rights, while including in her literature the promise that her victory meant the town “will have our first Christian mayor.”

    A fascist movement could not win a significant popular base in America by marching under swastika banners or peddling Nordic racial myths. It will have its own peculiar national character, utilizing Christian fundamentalism as well as racism and nativism. But if the external trappings will differ from that of the German Nazis or the movements of Mussolini in Italy and Franco in Spain, the historical significance of fascism is the same: it represents the effort of the ruling class, under conditions where the old bourgeois-democratic methods of rule have broken down, to defend its property and power by whipping up a mass movement and hurling it against the democratic rights and organized resistance of the working class.

    I don't think the AIP is a hate group. Let's not stoop to the level of our adversaries.

    Your fly fishing trying to snag something Aron. I've know her types all my life. Your not going to come up with anything significant bud. Nothing that will sink her in the eyes of others anyway.

    Her husband was part of a group that wanted Alaska to leave America. That isn't exactly showing love for the country.

    If you are just listening to anyone, isn't it better if you research the fact on your own? It was her husband who use to be associated with them and not Sarah! How about Obama, who did you heard who he associated with? Don't you think it's time for you to research about him before you vote?
