It turns out that Sarah Palin ALSO has a minister.

The internet is crackling with the latest Sarah Palin story.  She's a member of the Wasilla Assemblies of God where the pastor, Ed Kalnis, not only believes that God had a hand in the election of Governor Palin, but that the almighty has special plans for the state of Alaska:

TAPE:  

Governor Palin was on stage with him that day -- in fact, in her own speech she talked about that natural gas pipeline she's been pushing for and God's role in getting it built:

TAPE:... Gods will be done here."

Now this story is being peddled by some web sites as just as ominous as Barack Obama's preacher railing against historic injustice in America.

Except that Republicans will point out that in Sarah Palin's church, at least God is WITH America -- not against America.

I say we see how well that pipeline project goes before we pass judgement.

In any case, now know why she doesn't need earmarks.

Now this.
