She's back. Delaware Tea Party candidate Christine O'Donnell isn't letting her lop-sided loss November 2 get to her. We hear that she is expanding her spokeswoman role for the Tea Party movement.

Her first stop: the Northern Virginia Tea Party annual banquet set, appropriately, for Pearl Harbor Day, December 7. Northern Virginia Tea Party spokesman Daniel Cortez tells us that while she is filling in for overbooked state Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, who's made headlines for challenging President Obama's healthcare plan, she is working to cement her role as a Tea Party spokesperson.

"I will take your word for it that there are 6,885,933,182 people on Earth. I believe that virtually all have at one point engaged in self-love and God will slew every one of them. They will all die my friend. All of them."

I provided a source link in my previous comment. It's still an estimated value based on what the US Census Bureau calculated at the time it was posted. Regardless, I don't disagree that we are all fated to die at some point. Again, peace my FRiend, we are not - nor should we be - at odds and I respect your right to have an opinion, always.

“The Tea Party needs to proceed as if O’Donnell and Paladino never existed. Strapping either of these embarrassing albatrosses around their necks is a move toward irrelevancy.”

I agree 100%. Suckers gave a fortune to that inexperienced woman who lacked any chance of winning and some of that money could have gone to people who A). had a chance and B). were prepared to execute the job they were running four.

So unless a woman is married she cannot run for office, WIDEAWAKE?

Not at all.

My point is that when a woman runs for office and she has been out of the workforce for, say, eight years - well the usual reason is because she has been involved in another kind of demanding full-time job. That is, being a mother to her child or children.

In the case of O'Donnell, she actually has been doing nothing except running for office all that time.

It's kind of sad.

WIDEAWAKE, just because you personally don’t know Christine O’Donnell’s work history does not mean you are qualified to comment.

Christine O’Donnell has extensive work experience, including at the Republican National Committee.

The only person embarrassed on this topic is you. You don’t do your homework before spouting off.

Either O'Donnell was telling the IRS the truth and she honestly did not earn enough income during these years to be liable for federal taxes, or she was lying and doing extensive, high-level consulting work.

I don't believe that she lied to the IRS or cheated on her taxes. I take her at her word and agree with her that she did as little work as she represented to the IRS.

Onan died for disobedience.

WHICH years, moron?

Christine O’Donnell reported income and paid taxes.

In 2010, her income taxes were re-calculated as having an additional $1,100 due of taxes

Wow, you really know nothing SLEEPWALKER, do you?

You haven’t got clue #1

He disobeyed God by spilling his seed. He needed a lecture from Christine to cut it out.

WIDEAWAKE makes us laugh again with: Moseley: In other words, you have been an employee of Christine O'Donnell for some time

Wrong again, sleepy boy. In 2008 I volunteered to run Christine O'Donnell's primary campaign -- for which I was never paid any salary or fee (I did advance campaign expenses on my credit card and those were paid by the campaign eventually).

I am an attorney in Virginia.

NOW, the question is how is it that you cannot think "Wideawake?" How is it that you just make things up in front of our very eyes, and weave drunkenly around stumbling over concepts, ideas, and logic? Why did you just invent out of thin air the quote you stated above?

When O'Donnell manages to hold a single elected office, hold down a single real job

Christine has held down a great many jobs. She helped Haley Barbour with the marketing strategy that took over the US House for the Republicans in 1994. The fact that you haven't done your homework is your problem, not hers.

Looks like it was PALLADIN, who posted another vulgar comment the moderator deleted.

I reported #21 as well

He disobeyed God by spilling his seed. He needed a lecture from Christine to cut it out.

I might be flogging a dead horse; but I'll post the entire passage, Genesis 38:6-26. Although I'm really pulling for your edification in Biblical literacy; I don't intend to pound away at this subject all night and risk looking like a great big jerk. Even though I suspect you're just yanking our chains, I hope that if you saw farmer jack trapped on the barn roof, you'd help farmer Jack off.

Genesis 38:6-26

Judah got a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar. But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the LORD’s sight; so the LORD put him to death.

Then Judah said to Onan, “Sleep with your brother’s wife and fulfill your duty to her as a brother-in-law to raise up offspring for your brother.” But Onan knew that the child would not be his; so whenever he slept with his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground to keep from providing offspring for his brother. What he did was wicked in the LORD’s sight; so the LORD put him to death also.

Judah then said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father’s household until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “He may die too, just like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s household.

After a long time Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had recovered from his grief, he went up to Timnah, to the men who were shearing his sheep, and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went with him.

When Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is on his way to Timnah to shear his sheep,” she took off her widow’s clothes, covered herself with a veil to disguise herself, and then sat down at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah. For she saw that, though Shelah had now grown up, she had not been given to him as his wife.

When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face. Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her by the roadside and said, “Come now, let me sleep with you.”

“And what will you give me to sleep with you?” she asked.

“I’ll send you a young goat from my flock,” he said.

“Will you give me something as a pledge until you send it?” she asked.

He said, “What pledge should I give you?”

“Your seal and its cord, and the staff in your hand,” she answered. So he gave them to her and slept with her, and she became pregnant by him. After she left, she took off her veil and put on her widow’s clothes again.

Meanwhile Judah sent the young goat by his friend the Adullamite in order to get his pledge back from the woman, but he did not find her. He asked the men who lived there, “Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?”

“There hasn’t been any shrine prostitute here,” they said.

So he went back to Judah and said, “I didn’t find her. Besides, the men who lived there said, ‘There hasn’t been any shrine prostitute here.’”

Then Judah said, “Let her keep what she has, or we will become a laughingstock. After all, I did send her this young goat, but you didn’t find her.”

About three months later Judah was told, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar is guilty of prostitution, and as a result she is now pregnant.”

Judah said, “Bring her out and have her burned to death!”

As she was being brought out, she sent a message to her father-in-law. “I am pregnant by the man who owns these,” she said. And she added, “See if you recognize whose seal and cord and staff these are.”

Judah recognized them and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I wouldn’t give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not sleep with her again.

Yes, apparently Palladin forms his opinions from both Gawker and “Playboy Forum.” Occasional bathroom walls.

WIDEAWAKE gets his news and views from the Huffington Post.

WIDEAWAKE shoudl tell us how much income tax Christine O’Donnell earned in each of the years from 1993 to 2010, since WIDEAWAKE just assumes that Christine has never worked. If tehre were any factual basis, then surely W can tell us the amount of income tax Christine paid in each of the years 1933 to 2010.

So I guess WIDEAWAKE is slightly better than PALLIDN, but not by much.

I might be flogging a dead horse;

I am always in favor of studying the Bible, but since Christine mentioned ONE TIME in an interview in 1996 on MTV what the Christian Church has taught for 2,000 years, and never mentioned it again in the last 14 years, I think it is a bit off the target.

I do agree that Onan was punished for DISOBEDIENCE to God and the morality of his culture. The Bible does not support the idea that spilling seed is a sin.

However, Jesus explicitly said, point blank, what Christine mentioned in passing 14 years ago -- ONE TIME: That to lust after someone is the same as committing adultery in your heart. And the Church has taught that it is unrealistic to masturbate without lust.

But since even Christine was simply making an off-hand comment IN SUPPORT OF what the youth pastor in a group had taught, and has never considered it remotely important herself, it is a bit off track.

The worst part of the whole O’Donnel issue was how many so-called conservatives gloated when she lost.

I was very disappointed when the idiots in the GOP allowed the eneMedia to foist McCain on us. Of course, I held my nose and voted for him (Incidently, I voted with a provisional ballot since my absentee ballot never showed. Although I’m sure a vote was made in my name...).

I couldn’t imagine gloating about Obama defeating McCain. However, a lot of mouth breathing half-wits cheered O’Donnell’s loss.

It’s a bit odd that those three vanished when I posted Bible verses.

You quoted wideawakes words back to me. I was defending Christine O’Donnell by pointing out that she didn’t lose, that she defeated the GOP establishment in the primary. IMO, the party lost that election by not vigorously fighting in support of O’Donnell. Her message was fine, totally in sync with the conservative movement. She could have used party support to help in keeping the focus on the the issues. The GOP establishment wanted her to lose so they could say “I told you so”. The party elites are nothing but a bunch of selfish, power hungry bastards.
