Get this. On October 19, tea party sweetheart, Delaware Republican senatorial candidate Christine O’Donnell in her debate with Democratic opponent Chris Coons, showed not only her true colors, but also the brilliant intellectualism that is systemic of the tea party movement.
O’Donnell asks Coons, “Where in the Constitution is the separation of church and state?” To his credit, Coons did not respond, “Uh-duh da, First Amendment, dipstick.” With quick and clever wit, O’Donnell responds, “Let me clarify. You’re telling me that separation of church and state is in the First Amendment?”
Coons responds, “Government shall make no establishment of religion.” O’Donnell: “That’s in the First Amendment?”
Seriously? No, seriously?
Sometimes when I want to feel good about myself, like to think I’m creative and imaginative, I let me tell you that I can’t make this stuff up. I guess this really is the tea party of change.
