STFU, Conservatives
goodreasonnews: Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has turned her attention to an issue fusing together food, religion, travel and her home state. Palin spoke out on Thursday against Alaska Airlines’ decision to stop including prayer cards with its meal trays. The airline announced the move a day earlier, ending the tradition that lasted for 30 years. “Some customers were comforted by the cards and some didn’t feel religion was appropriate on the plane and preferred not to receive one,” Alaska Airlines spokeswoman Bobbie Egan told the Associated Press. Palin was one of those comforted customers, voicing her frustration to millions of Facebook followers. In a note entitled “Alaska Airlines’ Prayer Cards; It’s hip to be offended?”, the former Alaska governor expressed her distaste toward the move. “It feels so odd that some may be offended by a little card with an encouraging non-denominational verse from the Psalms, but how often do we hear complaints about tawdry ads or billboard images flashing at us everywhere we turn?,” Palin wrote. “People of faith and common decency just shrug and move on from the constant assault on their sensibilities; we don’t call for censorship — at least I don’t.” Duh, Alaska Airlines, didn’t you know if some people like being preached at EVERYONE should have to put up with it, even if it’s not in the company’s best interest? Fuck! Because no one has been oppressed by someone else’s righteous belief in One For Money starring Kathering Heigl… yet. -Joe

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has turned her attention to an issue fusing together food, religion, travel and her home state.

Palin spoke out on Thursday against Alaska Airlines’ decision to stop including prayer cards with its meal trays. The airline announced the move a day earlier, ending the tradition that lasted for 30 years.

“Some customers were comforted by the cards and some didn’t feel religion was appropriate on the plane and preferred not to receive one,” Alaska Airlines spokeswoman Bobbie Egan told the Associated Press.

Palin was one of those comforted customers, voicing her frustration to millions of Facebook followers. In a note entitled “Alaska Airlines’ Prayer Cards; It’s hip to be offended?”, the former Alaska governor expressed her distaste toward the move.

“It feels so odd that some may be offended by a little card with an encouraging non-denominational verse from the Psalms, but how often do we hear complaints about tawdry ads or billboard images flashing at us everywhere we turn?,” Palin wrote. “People of faith and common decency just shrug and move on from the constant assault on their sensibilities; we don’t call for censorship — at least I don’t.”

Duh, Alaska Airlines, didn’t you know if some people like being preached at EVERYONE should have to put up with it, even if it’s not in the company’s best interest? Fuck!

Because no one has been oppressed by someone else’s righteous belief in One For Money starring Kathering Heigl… yet.

    Umm.. hey, Sarah, this is a Catholic speaking. Anything out of the Book of Psalms is pretty denominational. Just sayin’.
