11. Great quotes
When the Second Continental Congress adopted a resolution which offered prayer for the troops, and specifically mentioned Jesus in the prayer, Washington did convey the message of prayer to his troops, but purposely omitted any mention of Jesus when doing so. Not all of his troops were Christian, and he felt it wasn't his business (nor the Congress's) to push Jesus on them. I suppose one could tell Palin this, but like other brainwashed ignorant twits, it would be dismissed.
