Tea-party takeover: witches and satan are back in the conversation!

The exciting, excited, and terminally cute Republican Delaware Senate candidate Christine McDonnell has inspired another important national discussion: witchcraft.

A 1999 tape from "Politically Incorrect," in which she acknowledged that she had "dabbled into witchcraft" but "never joined a coven." O'Donnell, a media-savvy evangelical Catholic, loved to shoot off her pretty little mouth on PI ...and she did so, many, many times.

She's a lulu, as our dad would say.

PI host, Bill Maher says he'll release one of these tapes every week until his old friend O'Donnell appears on his Friday night HBO talk show

O'Donnell immediately distanced herself from the quote, asking whether it was fair to hold candidates responsible for the "questionable folks" they hung out with in high school.

Meanwhile Wiccans and the politically sensitive pagans have joined pro-masturbation forces, the Frottage League, and the Put the Lust Back In Your Heart lobby to oppose O'Donnell and her Tea-Party allies. No word from satanists, yet, but they're rumored to be seeking a coalition with vampires which could be very potent with younger voters.

So it's OK to dabble in witchcraft, but admitting to smoking pot in your college days is political careericide?

[saintrudy]

Do we really want these republican dingbat women involved in running our nation? KS,PS and some of you other Conservanuts better be careful what you wish for, you might get it!

[timmy]

Strudy is right, we want candidates like Joe Lieberman, right tommy.

[jesus]

Is Edwards running for something? and is that really our choice -- this proudly ignorant, fundamentally dishonest fundamentalist or john friggin edwards?!

[Andrew]

question: what makes a "tea party candidate" a "tea party candidate"?

Is Obama considering that 100,000 acre plot of land in Paraguay. By the distressed supporters of his it looks like it might be a good investment.

"I'm one of your middle class Americans. And quite frankly I'm exhausted. I'm exhausted of defending you, defending your administration, defending the mantle of change I voted for, and deeply disappointed with where we are right now,"

"I represent the Wall Street community," said one man who runs a hedge fund. "We have felt like a pinata. Maybe you don't feel like you're whacking us with a stick, but we certainly feel like we've been whacked with a stick."

"I need you to help us understand how you can regain the political center, because you're losing the war of sound bites. You're losing the media cycles," said a small business owner from Pennsylvania.

Can't wait for November.

So she is a wiccan, or at the least practiced it once in her lifetime. We have a Kenyan muslim as president. A dollt for a VP, and a beeatch for Speaker. One wiccan cant be that bad.

My buddy said this.

Karl Rove, political mastermind for former President Bush, said Sunday that Christine O'Donnell, the Tea Party insurgent who won an upset victory in Delaware for the GOP Senate nomination, "can't simply ignore" the controversy stirred over the disclosure that she "dabbled in witchcraft" and has to find a way to "explain it and put it in its most sympathetic light and move on."

[Belsebub]

I knew her way back when...

[jimmy]

She should be sprayed with witch away

[joanie]

Who cares about something that is ten years old and been out for a week?

[Belsebub]

Sooooo, the teabaggers have condemned the President as the Devil. Does this mean O'Donnell worshiped him in her youth?

[Chucks]

I smoked weed with surfers when I was in high school. I smoked pot with hippies when I was in high school. I smoked mary j with the low riders when I was in high school.
I played with an Ouija board when I was in high school.
You have a fucking Frottage League? How do you keep score? Who wins? That's gross beyond joannie even.

[Chucks]

Oh well, at least it's not that protein Slurpee you were promoting the other night.
That was about as gross as anything ever.

[Belsebub]

She lies on her taxes, she lives off the contributions of well meaning people and now she’s a witch. Good luck teabaggers, you’ll need it.

[Tommy008]

Medced likes her , thinks she's a great candidate, and has a good chance of winnning. He was puttting down Rove, too. This kind of crap os why i never listen to his show anymore, among other things.

[Chucks]

"She lies on her taxes, she lives off of the contributions of well meaning people and now she's a witch...."
You can count on the Obama administration to start their recruitment efforts any day now. She meets all of the basic qualifications and would fit right in.
