I can't watch you tube because of dial up, but I have seen the speech on TV..
You ask what kind of heathen pinko would argue with God's will.  I suppose it 
all depends on who is saying that something is God's will as to who will 
argue.  There are Arabs who declare that, Allah Willing, Obama will be the 
next president..  There are plenty, PLENTY of Christians and Jews who believe 
it is God's will that a black man become POTUS...who is to argue that?  
And Ray, Don, et al, here is an even more radical thought.  What if God is 
the same as Allah and he doesn't give a shit as to what we think his will 
is...lol..mankind and womankind use religion as a tool to motivate people to 
change.  Palin did it with her speech, Obama did it too.  From Wiki:

In the book(Audacity of Hope), Obama explains how, through working with black 
churches
as a community organizer while in his twenties, he came to understand
"the power of the African-American religious tradition to spur social
change." 

 Palin and Obama are close to the same age, same generation.  Each has used 
their personal beliefs to achieve their own ends.  In the eyes of some, Palin 
may be a member of an extremist church(I believe extremist was the term Don 
used, if not, sorry), but the same can be said for Obama.  I have no clue as 
to what McCain's beliefs are, but I did read that Biden is in trouble with 
the Catholic church because of his liberal Democratic beliefs.  Like most, he 
is probably Catholic when it serves his need, and tosses the catechism when 
it isn't popular.  I probably shouldn't have said that because I don't know, 
but I think most politicians use religion when they think it will make a 
difference and get them elected or give them more power.

Palin was the one who brought religion into it. She asked people to pray 
to achieve "God's will" and get the pipeline built. The Iraq war
is "a 
task from God". Well gosh...what kind of heathen pinko would argue 
against "God's will"? You can hear the words come from her own
mouth:

Put down the paperback, Bob, take a deep breath and give reality a try.
Knoxville is 145 miles from here.  Nashville more than twice that far.

Now, in a world short of fuel and food (if they had fuel and food, they'd be
staying in Knoxville and Nashville) the alluded to marauding hordes head this
way.  They can make maybe 12 to 15 miles a day if they were in good shape and
used to the rigors of a 150 mile hike.  But almost no one is.  But we will
continue with your paperback story ... what is it you are proposing that they 
are
eating the 15 days it takes them to get here?  Or a month or more out of
Nashville?

Fine, let the hordes come and be exhausted and from fasting and fatique.  I
can handle the survivors, what few there would be.

It's only in paperbacks and sci-fi movies that you find people fighting over
the last rat to eat or last pint of water, and yet they are in perfect
physical shape and ready to fight tooth and nail for 20 hours without 
stopping.  In
the real world by the time those people even had the impetus to leave 
Knoxville
and Nashville, they'd be ematiated skeletons.
