When Bishop Thomas Muthee returned to Wasilla Assembly of God this September, I was there. Though Sarah Palin's friend, Pastor Ed Kalnins, had banned all recording devices from the church, I managed to capture Muthee's violent invocations against "The Enemy" with a hidden camera. Then, I headed down to McCain-Palin headquarters in Anchorage to ask Palin's spokespeople about her extreme religious beliefs. I also interviewed Rev. Howard Bess, a local pastor mercilessly persecuted by Palin and her allies, for more insight into the theology behind the VP pick's right-wing politics.
