The link you included provided the context that explained her statement. She erroneously said that they had developed mice with human brains when the truth was that they developed mice with human brain cells. An embarrassing error to be sure, but hardly serious.

And to the best of my knowledge, she's stepped back from many of her statements, particularly those about sexuality.
O'Donnell's past statements of mice and men and witchcraft speak not only of her lack of intelligence but her character. She's made a career of going on Bill Mahr to make stupid statements and running for office and so now that she is running for office again, to say her past is unimportant is disingenious and intellectually dishonest especially since she refuses to give interviews and we are left to define her for ourselves.

What I find interesting is your double standard of not criticizing the candidates on the right and trying to turn this thread into another criticizm of the left for not doing what you yourself don't do. Look at how many politicians on the right who run on family values and end up being child molestors and sex offenders....
Republican Values Create Child Molesters

But does that stop the right from voting for them? No. Case in point, David Vitter. But surely you've noticed the constant barrage of attacks on Obama for the last two years over trivial if not phoney accounts from his past. The double standard of the right is nauseating.

Here is my list of objections to O'Donnell....

Her lack of fiscal responsiblity is appalling and she has no credibilty in demanding budget and spending cuts for the rest of us.
Her opinion that women should be subserviant to men is disgusting especially considering she had a very lurid sexual history of her own and isn't even married. She also probably had several abortions, since she doesn't have children, which makes her opinion on abortion hypocritical.
Her opinion that women shouldn't be in the military is stupid and embarrassing.
Her opinions on science are stupid and her being a YEC makes her even more stupid.

The woman is a complete and utter idiot and the only reason she's even made it this far in the election is because the Koch's are funding her campaign.
 
She said she is not a witch and if she was Karl Rove would be supporting her.
By the way, everytime they run that clip on TV I want to scream. Right there it is time stamped Oct. 29, 1999. No one ever mentions
Halloween. Don't they think maybe there is a connection? At least mention that maybe that's why she was talking about witches in the first place.

If she were a witch, it would be a point in her favor.

Do the actions of Obama/Hillary/Biden speak to their lack of character? Why do you keep on dodging this question?

Look, it's pretty clear that you think that anything bad in a Republican candidate's past proves that they're a terrible person, while anything bad in a Democratic candidate's past was just a youthful indiscretion. Why can't you just admit this?

What I find interesting is your double standard of not criticizing the candidates on the right and trying to turn this thread into another criticizm of the left for not doing what you yourself don't do.

You're missing the point. Badly.

It's one thing to say "Well, this candidate did something bad, so that excuses the fact that that candidate did something bad."

It's another thing to say "You're arguing that this candidate did something bad, but that action was similar to that of another candidate. Would you say that that candidate also did something bad, or do you evaluate the two differently? If so, why?

Are you familiar with the term non sequitur?

But does that stop the right from voting for them? No. Case in point, David Vitter. But surely you've noticed the constant barrage of attacks on Obama for the last two years over trivial if not phoney accounts from his past. The double standard of the right is nauseating.

And the bulk of those objections have been dumb too. See how that works?

Here is my list of objections to O'Donnell....

Okay.



Her opinion that women should be subserviant to men is disgusting especially considering she had a very lurid sexual history of her own and isn't even married.

link?

She also probably had several abortions, since she doesn't have children, which makes her opinion on abortion hypocritical.

lolololol

Did you know that Chris Coons probably RAPED AND KILLED OVER 500 PUPPIES when he was a kid? It must be true, since he doesn't have any dogs now.


Her opinion that women shouldn't be in the military is stupid and embarrassing.

Another statement from 1995. Don't you find it interesting that the vast majority of **** that you can dig up to throw at this woman is 10-15 years old?

Her opinions on science are stupid and her being a YEC makes her even more stupid.

Okay.

The woman is a complete and utter idiot and the only reason she's even made it this far in the election is because the Koch's are funding her campaign.

Again with the Koch brothers. Don't you ever get tired of tilting at that windmill? What next, are you going to accuse her of being a "Bircher"?

What you call youthful indiscrections, O'Donnell made a career of. I think it's pretty clear that the right has a double standard. When I see you and others on the right give an honest criticism of O'Donnell instead of excusing her, then you can tell the left to criticize their own.

You're missing the point. Badly.

That's not what I'm arguing, that is what you are arguing. The left doesn't use family values and religious morality to get elected like the right does. So when the right fails to live up their own standards, the right doesn't hold them accountable. But they expect the left to adhere to those same values and when they don't they persecute them. That is the double standard I am talking about and the point you miss....badly.

Are you familiar with hypocricy?

Yes, I see how it works and unfortunately it works.

Okay.

Kinda like Obama is a Muslim, socialist, communist who hates white people and the ghost of his Kenyan grandfather is running the country? It would be funny if the people saying it weren't given so much credibilty by the right.

Here is the link.....

Christine O'Donnell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Another statement from 1995. Don't you find it interesting that the vast majority of **** that you can dig up to throw at this woman is 10-15 years old?
So what? She was an adult not a teenager. She made a career of going on Bill Mahr and blabbing about her so called "youthful indiscretions" and pretending that gave her the moral authority to judge others. And again you fail to hold those on the right accountable for what you and the right accuse the left of.

Okay.
Again with the Koch brothers. Don't you ever get tired of tilting at that windmill? What next, are you going to accuse her of being a "Bircher"?
No more tired than those on the right get tired of promoting the tea party. So you might as well as get used to hearing about the Koch's, because as long as they're funding and organizing the tea party in an attempt to destroy our country, then I think it only right and fair that I should be able to speak out about them.

Out here in the wild wooley west where I was born and raised, things are a lot different than in NYC and until you understand what has been going on out here the last couple of years, you really haven't a clue what you're talking about. The Mormons who are extreme in their own right have renewed their interest in the JBS thanks to their new convert, Glenn Beck spreading Cleon Skousen's extremist ideology to a gullible and ignorant audience on FoxNews.

Yes, I am admittedly very concerned what is going on like I have never been before, cuz I see what has been transpiring before my very eyes, so therefore I think I know whereof I speak. So unless you like living in theological state with greed and self interest having all the say, then you best wake up before it's too late.

Where are you getting this ****? Where have I said that O'Donnell was a good candidate or that she was not rightly being criticized for several actual issues?

So you're saying the left is pro-cocaine, pro-plagiarism, and pro-seance? :lol:

No, but I'm familiar with hypocrisy. You're demonstrating it right now.

Right, that's about what I expected from you.

I know, don't you just hate idiotic fearmongering?

Better invest in a bunker, it sounds like things are crazy out there. :lol:
 
What does Christine O'Donnell do besides run for political and use the donated funds for her personal use. Does she have are REAL job?

FWIW, a Delaware Republican voter called a liberal talk show today and said he voted for O'Donnell because he thought Castle was in politics too long and Delaware need a change and he knew if Castle won, he would win the general. He said he's voting for Coons in Nov.

Your silence speaks volumes.

uh huh. :roll:

Those things are also dumb. Why is it that you have such a hard time admitting that both sides can be dumb?
Alright, both sides are dumb. Are you happy now?

Right, that's about what I expected from you.
<sigh> Well, what do you expect if she too cowardly to give interviews?

I know, don't you just hate idiotic fearmongering?
Yeah, look at this fear mongering piece of ****......
America At Risk - Newt and Callista Gingrich - Citizens United Productions

So how would you phrase it when SCOTUS rules that the corporations can use unlimited funding to usurp the democratic process and not disclose where the money came from?

Donor Names Remain Secret as Rules Shift
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/21/us/politics/21money.html?_r=1&partner=rss&emc=rss

Inspite of the secrecy, O'Donnell has Koch funding written all over her.

Better invest in a bunker, it sounds like things are crazy out there. :lol:
Don't worry, I was raised around Mormons and so my pantry is well stocked with canned goods, bottled peaches and lots of ammo. LOL
 
Those things [Obama rumors] are also dumb. Why is it that you have such a hard time admitting that both sides can be dumb?

The problem with this is that Obama is a very conventional, normal guy, albeit with an unusual upbringing. He comports- and always has comported- himself much like any other college-educated professional.
There's nothing "weird" about him.

The outlandish rumors about him are therefore far "dumber" than the ones about O'Donnell, who is, you must admit, pretty "out there". Pretty fringe-y and outside the mainstream in her beliefs and conduct.

Liberal talk radio is always a reliable source for what actual republicans are thinking.

Your silence speaks volumes.

What the **** are you talking about? I've made it clear from the beginning that I don't think she's a good candidate, that I would have preferred that Mike Castle win, and that I find most of her old statements objectionable.

No, are you?

No, I'm not. You truly don't appear to get the point.

Yeah, look at this fear mongering piece of ****......

That's certainly true, at least in regard to her past statements. I'm not trying to say that the criticisms of her are even close to the birther-level idiocy that Obama has faced, but merely that the position advanced by moot and pbrauer (Her past actions conclusively determine what type of person she is today, but the past actions of the aforementioned democrats do no such thing) is absurd.
 
Don't worry, I was raised around Mormons and so my pantry is well stocked with canned goods, bottled peaches and lots of ammo. LOL
and lots of toilet paper as well, right?:2razz:
 
If either Sarah or Christine run for President or Vice President, I will vote for Obama...
After GB, I have had enough of air heads.
 
I just discovered that she believes homosexuality is a personality disorder(2007 comment). Considering the level of ignorance in that, I think everything on the list in this poll is trivial.
 
She is a prime example of what happens when people stick to a very narrow perspective in life. If you live at either end of the political bell curve, associating only with like minded people, you end up embarrassing yourself in public. Worse, you don't even know it, you THINK you are mainstream, that your ideas are shared by many, but in fact, you are just another small fraction of the population best described as idiots.
 
I'm most concerned by the fact that it seems most people in Delaware don't think she is qualified to be a Senator.

Regardless of how you plan to vote, do you think Christine O'Donnell is qualified to be a U.S. Senator?

33% Yes

60% No

And hell, that is from a FOX Poll.

The Plum Line - Christine O'Donnell is toxic and hurting GOP

Although it troubles me twice as much that 6% would vote for someone they don't feel is qualified to be a Senator.

yeah a community activist is a real job i Guess?
 
I guess I agree with you. Community activist is not a real job. I just didn't expect you to say that about O'Donnell.

she isn't president and not likely to be a senator

sadly Obama is and was

TD, you do know that Kermit is a liberal, right? Think about it, he's a green amphibian, has an ongoing questionable relationship with a pink pig (totally different species), and is in the entertainment business. There is also the rumor that he likes having someone's hand up his butt..:2razz:
 
Where is the "that people give a **** about her either way" option? I mean COME ON people it's Delaware.
 
I'm going to out on a limb

And nothing you said is relevant. Nothing you argued is even remotely analogous to my concern. Not understanding how a fridge works is hardly the same as holding a belief that requires you to deny testable principles of water. But that is what YEC holds.

You people that dislike O'Donnell dislike her not solely because of her religion, but because she's credible when she says she's going to uphold the Constitution, and you don't want Constitutionalists in the government.

Actually, we dislike her because she's friends with Michael Jordan and we're not. Get a grip dude.
