^^ It is being twisted, intentionally or not, and folks repeat it without checking it.
Her actual quotes:
"I'm like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I'm like, don't let me miss the open door."
"If there is an open door in 2012 or four years later, and if it is something that is going to be good for my family, for my state, for my nation, an opportunity for me, then I'll plough through that door,"
Bit of a difference between believing god will do something for you, and praying that god will guide you to what is best. One of them is creepy and the other is just being hopeful/optimistic and is something millions of people do in this country every day.
But then we look at the headlines and its no wonder people think this:
-"Palin: 'God' will show me the way"
-"Palin: God will show me the way"
-"Sarah Palin: God will show me a door to the White House in 2012"
-"God will 'show me the way' to the White House, Palin prays"
-"Palin: God will show me White House door"
-"Palin: 'God' will show me the way to White House "
Those are just the articles from the first page of a google web search on "palin god show", the phrase "god will show me" makes an entrance in every article despite her never uttering the words.
So tell me, am I just imagining this?
edit: If anyone is interested the quotes in question start at 5:45 in the 3rd video:
