Christine O’Donnell: What Are You Thinking?
October 23, 2010 1 Comment
I was not going to post anything about Christine O’Donnell, but every time I hear news about her it makes me more and more worried that she will get elected. I hope Delaware is smarter than that.
Below is a video in which Christine O’Donnell claims that Separation of Church and State is not in the first amendment. While that exact phrase is not in the amendment, who hasn’t heard it before? And is that not what everyone understands it to mean (including the U.S. Supreme Court)? Anderson Cooper’s comments that follow are very true – and Christine O’Donnell’s comments are very worrying. This is especially true for someone who claims to be a “constitutional expert” – based on a seven day fellowship with a conservative foundation.
Vodpod videos no longer available.
Hopefully, you’ve seen Christine O’Donnell’s ad claiming that she is not a witch, rather “I’m You.”
Seriously? Christine, you are not me or anyone I know – and likely no one in Delaware, I’m sure. If nothing else, none of us has to deny being a witch (A ridiculous claim in itself, mind you, that no one should have brought up as a serious issue for any candidate.).
SNL does a good job with this ad though:
Why worry? You have your degree, good job waiting for you, what’s there to worry? O’Donnell pulling this off, in a blue state? Obama and Biden made sure that didn’t happen. Don’t you worry now. You’re oversea business will always do great as long as things go the way they’ve been going, say the last 15 years. Just don’t start a business in this country. You’ll be in for a rude awakening.
