In Her Own Words: Christine O'Donnell 2006 U.S. Senate Radio Commercial

You be the judge.



Transcript:

My name is Christine O'Donnell, write-in candidate for U.S. Senate.

The biblical first fruits principle proves that, as the first state of our nation, Delaware has a unique responsibility to elect godly leaders.

There are two issues facing America next year that could force lawsuits on churches who refuse to ordain or marry homosexuals.

Neither of my opponents are pledging to protect the church body.

There's legislation that would make Delaware the global hub of embryonic stem cell research.

This expands our state's abortion tolerance and opens the door to human cloning in our backyards.

My opponent also wants to surrender our sovereignty to the United Nations.

The Washington Post once described Christians as poor, uneducated and easy to command when it comes to elections.

By writing me in on November 7th the body of Christ would come together and reclaim the authority we are given in government.

Delaware can elect a God-fearing U.S. Senator.

And everything she says there is entirely consistent with libertarian beliefs. Just because someone is a committed Christian, does not mean they cannot also be a libertarian. She has said time and time again, even when addressing the Kent County Libertarian Party last June, that she may be personally a social conservative, she does not wish to use the power of government to enforce morality.

Really Tyler. It's a shame that you and other Mike Castle backers are not getting on board with her. Those of us Libertarian Republicans who were backing her over Castle, said explicitly before the primary, that if Castle won, we'd be enthusiastic backers of his campaign.

What's up with your side?

OK, so this wasn't the result you were hoping for, but consider the alternative...

or, now that your preferred candidate is out of the race, you could support Libertarian Jim Rash instead.

A Libertarian Martin Luther King Jr. Day post

In which we travel into interesting waters . . . (for a fairly long trip, so be prepared) Dr. King's 1968 book, Where do we go from here:  chaos or community? , is profound in that it criticizes anti-poverty programs for their piecemeal approach, as John Schlosberg of the Center for a Stateless Society  [C4SS] observes: King noted that the antipoverty programs of the time “proceeded from a premise that poverty is a consequence of multiple evils,” with separate programs each dedicated to individual issues such as education and housing. Though in his view “none of these remedies in itself is unsound,” they “all have a fatal disadvantage” of being “piecemeal,” with their implementation having “fluctuated at the whims of legislative bodies” or been “entangled in bureaucratic stalling.”   The result is that “fragmentary and spasmodic reforms have failed to reach down to the profoundest needs of the poor.” Such single-issue approaches also have “another common failing — ...

A reply to Salon's R. J. Eskrow, and his 11 stupid questions about Libertarians

Posts here have been in short supply as I have been living life and trying to get a campaign off the ground. But "11 questions to see if Libertarians are hypocrites" by R. J. Eskrow, picked up at Salon , was just so freaking lame that I spent half an hour answering them. In the end (but I'll leave it to your judgment), it is not that Libertarians or Libertarian theory looks hypocritical, but that the best that can be said for Mr. Eskrow is that he doesn't have the faintest clue what he's talking about. That's ok, because even ill-informed attacks by people like this make an important point:  Libertarian ideas (as opposed to Conservative ideas, which are completely different) are making a comeback as the dynamic counterpoint to "politics as usual," and so every hack you can imagine must be dragged out to refute them. Ergo:  Mr. Eskrow's 11 questions, with answers: 1.       Are unions, political parties, elections, and ...

More of This, Please

Or perhaps I should say, "Less of this one, please." Or how about just, "None of them. Ever again. Please....For the Love of God." Sunshine State Poll: Grayson In Trouble The latest Sunshine State/VSS poll shows controversial Democratic incumbent Alan Grayson trailing former state Senator Dan Webster by seven points, 43 percent to 36 percent. A majority of respondents -- 51 percent -- disapprove of the job that Grayson is doing. Independents have an unfavorable view of him as well, by a 36/47 margin. Grayson has ignored the conventional wisdom that a freshman should be a quiet member who carefully tends to the home fires. The latest controversy involves his " Taliban Dan " advertisement, where he explicitly compares his opponent to the Taliban, and shows a clip of Webster paraphrasing Ephesians 5:22 -- "wives, submit to your husbands." An unedited version of the clip shows that Webster was actually suggesting that husba...
