The most important thing O’Donnell will ever do in the Senate is occupy that chair on November 3 and block Harry Reid and his pet Coons from pushing anything nefarious through the lame duck session.
Unlike everyone else in the Nov 2 election,
Christine ODonnell will be seated immediately
if she wins.
The GOP elite want failure. They want delay.
They want the GOP to LOSE in Nov. 2010 .... for Romney.
This contempt for we, the people is not limited to elected officials. Here in Delaware, the perfect example is the Dept of Transportation (DELDOT). Their arrogance is best exemplified in the communty focus groups, where citizens give their input as to how they would like to be done, mess around for a year or two, and then do what they damn well please.
That is probably true everywhere. The arrogant “officials” do these sham meeting everywhere. In Montgomery County Freak State Maryland they limit you to just a couple minutes at any public meeting and will toss you if you are adamant and against what they want to do. I guess “they” know better than the unwashed.
Although unfortunately presented inarticulately, Ms. ODonnell is correct that “separation of church and state” does not appear in the Constitution, nor is it a correct interpretation of the Establishment clause. The sole meaning of the Establishment clause was to prohibit the federal government from preferring one faith as a national religion. The 20th century Supreme Court rulings expanding that clause to incorporate the bigoted 19th century anti-Catholic concept of “separation of church and state” are an unconstitutional exercise of judicial overreach, as well as creating a jurisprudence which even pro-separationists acknowledge is incoherent. We need to amend the first amendment to restore the original meaning of its establishment clause, which is non-preference among denominations, not secular hostility to faith in general.

Fascinating view. It makes excellent sense.
Amen! I believe O’Donnell is going to win this!
You’ve been here long enough to know that at FreeRepublic, some people read the comments, not just the story. Breadcrumbs might not interest you, but some people like them.
Another one who would be seated immediately would be Joe DioGuardi (NY special vs. Gillibrand.)
O’Donnell is an admitted long shot but DE is a small state and ANYTHING can happen. My sister (who lives in DE) actually turned me on to O’D, which is amazing since she (my sister) previously was a closeted lib. She changed when she lost her job and had to scramble to find a new one. Amazing how that works.
perception is reality
Man oh man, have I heard that one a lot.
It’s really just “the truth is what I say it is.”
Well, the Truth is apparently something a great many people can’t handle.
Not your bird droppings. And what does that have to do with your whining about repeat post that was posted ten hours later? Your trolling on O'Donnell threads because you have some bug up your arse about her is as transparent as can be.
