Sex is something sacred and should never take place outside the holy bounds of matrimony. I think masturbators should be shot on sight. Or maybe have their peckers cut off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Asked about her qualifications for office, Governor Palin stated, &#8220;I learned a whole lot, let me tell you, in the last election. I think it was a mistake for me to run on Senator McCain&#8217;s ticket. If it had been me and Chrissie together then, it&#8217;d be a different story now &#8211; no Muslim in the White House now, let me tell you.&#8221; She went on to add, &#8220;John&#8217;s a nice guy but he&#8217;s kinda weak kneed and he caved to all those godless liberals that want to turn our country into a socialist state. That was a mistake, and it&#8217;s one I aim to correct.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;America needs strong leadership. Strong Christian, leadership, and that&#8217;s what Chrissie and I will bring to the table. We&#8217;ll put this great country back on the path to righteousness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Masturbation is the devil&#8217;s work,&#8221; added Ms O&#8217;Donnell, &#8220;and we must punish these sinners.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked about her response to the high US unemployment rate, Governor Palin said, &#8220;Perhaps if everyone will just tighten their belts and pray, we&#8217;ll get better.
