Glossolalia, Alaska

Max Blumenthal visited Sarah Palin's church last weekend, where Kenyan evangelist Thomas "Witch Fighter" Muthee was holding forth.
On the first night of services, Muthee implored his audience to wage “spiritual warfare” against “the enemy.” As I filmed, a nervous church staffer approached from behind and told me to put my camera away. I acceded to his demand, but as Muthee urged the church to crush “the python spirit” of the unbeliever enemies by stomping on their necks, I pulled out a smaller camera and filmed from a more discreet position. Now, church members were in deep prayer, speaking in tongues and raising their hands. Muthee exclaimed, “We come against the spirit of witchcraft! We come against the python spirits!” Then, a local pastor took the mic from Muthee and added, “We stomp on the heads of the enemy!”
Yep, just the people you want with their fingers on the button. You can see Muthee casting demons or whatever out of Palin in a clip further down on the blog. Blumenthal will post his own video next week.
