Christine O'Donnell goes beyond conservatism into a land of

[Green_Lantern]

Extremely archaic viewpoints. She is a supporter of traditional values, if by traditional you mean Mary, Queen of Scots.

Her biggest crusade has become preaching abstinence until marriage to young women. 

"Not only because I think I'm right," she said in 2004. "I know what it's like to live a life without principle." 

But although she believes in no sex before marriage, she has also said time and again that what she strives for is not abstinence, not virginity, but chastity. 

"I don't encourage anyone to seek 'abstinence.' I cringe at terms like 'secondary virginity' or 'recycled virgin.' One of my goals is to get the body of Christ to stop proclaiming these words. I would rejoice if I never heard 'abstinence' from a pulpit again," O'Donnell wrote in Cultural Dissident in 1998. "As Christians, virginity is not even our goal. Purity and holiness are our calling in Christ."

O'Donnell was approached by anti-abortion activists who asked her to run for Senate. 

"Originally I said no," she said. "I never wanted to run for office. I was an outspoken advocate, and if you run you have to water it down. But as someone who prays about every decision I make, I felt like God was leading me in the other direction." 

"During the primary, I heard the audible voice of God," she said. "He said, 'Credibility.' It wasn't a thought in my head. I thought it meant I was going to win. But after the primary, I got credibility." 

She ran, lost the primary to Jan Ting and ran as a write-in candidate. She lost again.

CREDIBILITY

2. I heard the audible voice of God

No, you were hallucinating Christine. Let's hope that "the audible voice of God" never tells her to bludgeon anyone with an axe.

And I'm sorry, but anyone who starts an answer to a question with, "The Bible says..." as often as she does does not belong in a political office. She belongs in a church somewhere.

3. Christine needs to let the whole "master of her domain" thing go.

It would do her a world of good.

4. Jesus Christ himself

would be embarrassed by this woman, and all tea baggers for that matter.

6. I doubt that Jesus would be party to any political movement...

Tea party may not like him though. They think he looks like a white guy with long hair when he really looks like the Muslim men they fear.

5. Jeez, someone post a picture of Joan of Arc.
