You’re right about the whisper/slander campaign, but I’m not so sure about her masturbation position, so to speak.
Have you seen the MTV video clip from the 90s? She says that it is impossible to masturbate without having lust in your heart and that the bible says that lusting in your heart is a sin (as Jimmy Carter so famously recalled). Further, the pitch was that men and women were meant to please each other sexually in a marital relationship, and for a guy to otherwise know how to please himself would spoil that specialness. She was advocating for ‘purity’ at that level, as far as I could tell.
But again, who cares? Unless she advocates introducing a law to make it a federal crime, I just don’t see how it matters.

Regardless of what you believe about her personal beliefs about moral purity, it should give comfort regardless that she takes her faith that seriously. At least she is not attending a church where the preacher is famous for saying "God Damn America"
A guy once said essentially the same thing in a speech known as the Sermon on the Mount. Was that guy also a crazy, weird kook?
Morning joe was playing a clip from a Bill Maher “Politically Incorrect” show she was on.
From what was said, she appeared on Maher’s show MORE THAN ONCE, so expect more Maher VS Christine videos.
The premise was something like:
Bill asked her if Hitler came to the door and asked if she was hiding any Jews, and she was, would she (against her Christian faith) LIE to Adolf.
Typical strawman Maher arguement.
Joe let out of a segment with a snarly, anti-Christine in tone, comment about it that almost made me punch the screen.
Yeah, who cares, I think her anti masturbation schtick is kind of cute. On the other hand (ahem..), she was only in her 20’s at the time, still very young.
ALL that matters is that she votes conservative, and she will.
