Palin Teams Up With Right Wing Holy Warrior For "Tribute to the Troops"

If you are a regular reader of this blog, you are not doubt familiar with Jerry Boykin(link is external), the former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence under Donald Rumsfeld who retired after video emerged of him explaining that we were engaged in a spiritual war against Islam that the US would eventually win because our God was bigger than their God.

Since leaving the military, Boykin has joined up with self-proclaimed prophet Rick Joyner(link is external) and become the Religious Right's resident "expert"(link is external) on all(link is external) things Islam(link is external) and a leading member of the Religious Right's Spartan-like army.(link is external) He is also the man who exposed the fact(link is external) that President Obama is a Marxist who intends to use the health care reform legislation to build an army of Brownshirts loyal only to him:

So it only stands to reason that next month, Sarah Palin would share the stage(link is external) with him at a "Tribute to the Troops(link is external)" rally in Colorado:

Palin will be keynote speaker at "Tribute to the Troops with Sarah Palin" at the university in Lakewood.
