Palin Describes Witch-Hunting Minister As “Awesome”
The problem with Sarah Palen, from a punditry point of view is that she is addictive, she is just SO diss-able. Are we for instance supposed to take seriously someone who, according to the Times Online says that a pastor that “founded his ministry with a witchhunt against a Kenyan woman who he accused of causing car accidents through demonic spells” was influential in helping her become governor of Alaska?
“At a speech at the Wasilla Assembly of God on June 8 this year, Mrs Palin described how Thomas Muthee had laid his hands on her when he visited the church as a guest preacher in late 2005, prior to her successful gubernatorial bid.”
And who exactly is Thomas Muthee?
“Pastor Muthee founded the Prayer Cave in 1989 in Kiambu, Kenya after “God spoke” to him and his late wife Margaret and called him to the country, according to the church’s website.
The pastor speaks of his offensive against a demonic presence in the town in a trailer for the evangelical video “Transformations”, made by Sentinel Group, a Christian research and information agency.
“We prayed, we fasted, the Lord showed us a spirit of witchcraft resting over the place,” Pastor Muthee says.
After the spirit was broken, the crime rate dropped to almost zero and there was “explosive church growth” while almost every bar in the town closed down, the video says.”
“According to accounts of the witchhunt circulated on evangelical websites such as Prayer Links Ministries, after Pastor Muthee declared Mama Jane a witch, the townspeople became suspicious and began to turn on her, demanding that she be stoned. Public outrage eventually led the police to raid her home, where they fired gunshots, killing a pet python which they believed to be a demon.
After Mama Jane was questioned by police – and released – she decided it was time to leave town, the account says.”
While it’s not clear how a misogynist Kenyan minister ended up in Wasilla, AK, he apparently did and delivered 10 sermons at Sister Sarah’s church.
“It was during that these sermons that Mrs Palin, who was then preparing for her gubernatorial run, was anointed by Pastor Muthee. His intercession, she says, was “awesome”.”
It’s enough to set the rest of us to praying. Or you could go check out the Hockey Moms For Obama petition on Troopergate here.

This is a great article! Thanks for ending your article with a link to the Troopergate petition. This is really heating up here in Alaska. The McCain machine is here and they have one of their Truth Doctors speaking on behalf of Sarah. They are attacking Monegan and Hollis French and anyone involved in the Troopergate investigation. Sarah has turned her back on Alaska. She didn’t finish the job here as Governor before running after the next job. She’s not qualified for Governor of Alaska and even less qualified for VP of the US. People around our nation need to wake up and do the right thing–VOTE FOR OBAMA/BIDEN!
