Palin is a religious fanatic

This morning on MSNBC's Morning Joe, they showed complete disdain toward Sarah Palin (as they usually do) over her quote describing her nomination as "God's plan". It's as if they have never heard the expression "well, it's in God's hands now", or "it's just part of God's plan", or were completely unfamiliar with the idea that people put in incredibly difficult and unfamiliar situations might try to poise themselves with some help from above.

My guess is that they probably have heard those expressions before, even in the cocoon of the Washington/New york corridor, but describing her quote in that context wouldn't fit into the "Sarah Palin is a religious fanatic" narrative.
