Christine is right and Coons is a typical liberal atheist asshat.
FYI
However, this is not an issue that is going to win over DE independents. On this issue, she is only speaking to the conservative Delawareans who are already willing to crawl over broken glass to vote for her.
She needs to forget about this distracting argument and focus on the fact that Coons spent all his time in local DE office either raising taxes, trying to raise taxes more or helping his cronies line their pockets with fat pensions paid for by the DE taxpayer.
They really are not smart enough to realize how stupid they are.
Reminds me of a quote:
"The difference between genius and stupidity is genius has limits"
Christine O’Donnell was awesome on the matter of the First Amendment. It is staggering idiocy among the orthodoxy that they churn out little apparatchik law students by the dozens who are clueless. When they graduate and can’t find a job in Coons’ workers paradise maybe they’ll get a clue.
In the interim, as an old timer, it’s encouraging for me personally to know that there are younger people who do have a clue, like Christine. No matter how this plays out, I hope she sticks around in politics. She and Sarah and Rand and Michele and Marco and LtCol West and all the other tea party patriots have got the right stuff.
But for this post, God bless Christine for standing tall and proud and telling these nitwit lefties what’s what. But for people like Christine O’Donnell we’d all be living in the gulag.
Michael Medved spent several minutes - till I turned him off - declaring that Christine is dumb as rocks on this issue. He is the idiot and this is one more reason I skip his show.
It’s called Article 3.
“I am hoping Obama is so upset he smokes 5 packs of cigs and wheezes himself to sleep at 5 am.”
LOL,pburgh01!
Excellent comments, PaleoBob.
Tagline officially stolen ... lol
Sure it does. It provides for a supreme, unaccountable judiciary empowered to interpret the Constitution, whose opinions carry the full force of Constitutional law, without appeal.

That's true. She fell right into a trap. And she didn't even do a good job of it. Maybe had she said, "Where are THE WORDS 'separation of church and state' in the Constitution." But even then, as you say, she's preaching to the very small choir of DE conservatives, and showing her hand to moderates who won't understand or like the point she was ineptly trying to make. And she's ignoring Article 3. She might have tried making it an argument about judges, but that's tired at this point.

It's too late. She's so done.
She just muddled it some more. The first amendment prohibts the U.S. Congress from establishing religion, not “government.” Essentially, she has shifted to the postion outlined by Coons.
Awesome? In the debate she accurately said that the Constitution does not prohbit “government” from establishing religion, not she says that it does.
As I was channel surfing last night it seemed all the usual sudpects in the LSM were having a field day declaring how stupid Christine is. I’d bet a paycheck that she knows more than any of them overall about the Constitution.
I can remember being at the Md. State Fair in the summer of 1964, a 13 year-old pie-eyed volunteer selling cans of “Goldwater” for 25 cent contributions—but I don’t think I was ever prouder to be a conservative American than I was when I heard Christine stand up and speak to truth to the Marxist orthodoxy yesterday. I just loved it.
Since she is only down 5-8% I wouldn’t count her out by any stretch. Polls are useless until 24 hrs prior to the vote and even then this year is impossible to predict.
Pray for America
Same here! I SO hope she wins, just so I can call his show and rub it in his face! With ‘friends’ like Medved, who needs enemies?
