VIDEO: Praying alone is no fun! Plus bonus "Sarah stiffs Alaska legislature" story!

By GottaLaff

Let us pray for Grabby McEarmarks, who just doesn't seem to have a clue about, well, anything. Whazzat? Mixing religion and politics is not a good and healthy thing? My bad. If only Grabby knew that. (see video) But while we're waiting for her to catch on, let's take another peeky-weeky into Grabby World:
Gov. Sarah Palin (R-Alaska) backed out a scheduled meeting Thursday with state legislative leaders who have publicly criticized her plan to turn down a portion of the state’s federal stimulus funds.

We had a meeting scheduled with the governor today and her legislative liaison told us that she wasn’t there and that we could meet with the staff,” said Gary Stevens, the state’s Republican Senate President, at an afternoon press conference. “We’re here, we’re available, and unfortunately she is not.
She was out looking for a new Prayer Partner.
Palin fired back in a statement released during the press conference, claiming that the lawmakers cancelled the meeting with her so that they could “host their own press conference.”

Stevens said Palin’s account of events “is absolutely false.”

To say that we cancelled the meeting to have a press conference is absolutely untrue and somebody should be brought to task on that,” he said.
God will smite her for lying. And yes, I just wanted to use the word "smite".
Stevens said the lawmakers turned down the offer because Palin’s staff “often has trouble answering questions.
So does Palin herself.
The meeting was scheduled to negotiate a solution to the conflict between lawmakers and Palin over the 31 percent of federal stimulus package funds the governor said she plans to turn down. [...]

I can't predict how much or what funds legislators might add to my request, and we haven't heard all the public testimony yet,” Palin said. “To say now what might happen with an unknown bill would be premature.
With that, Grabby walked into a wall and kept right on going.
