Christine O’Donnell: If I Was Still Into Witchcraft “Karl Rove Would Be A Supporter”

video
» 81 comments

Apparently the midterm elections have boiled down to a fight between Karl Rove and Sarah Palin acolyte Christine O’Donnell.

Filling in for an absentee O’Donnell this morning, Rove told Fox News Sunday‘s Chris Wallace that O’Donnell couldn’t not respond to her now-famous witchcraft remarks but had to “deal with it, and explain it, and put it in it’s most sympathetic light and move on.”

Later this afternoon O’Donnell, who was attending a local picnic, responded thusly: “I was in high school, how many of you didn’t hang out with questionable folks in high school? But no, There’s been no witchcraft since, if there was, Karl Rove would be a supporter.”

Perhaps the only thing more surprising than the fact the national political dialogue has devolved into a debate over “witchcraft” is the fact that, in the words of Maureen Dowd, an “anti-abortion, anti-masturbation, anti-premarital-sex, anti-stem-cells, anti-gay-marriage, dubious-about-evolution Christian conservative” who once admitted to “dabbling in witchcraft” on an unaired Bill Maher show in 1999 is the person who has sent Karl Rove scrambling to prove his party loyalty. SNL is going to have to work double-time when it returns to be able to do this election cycle justice. Watch O’Donnell below.

    ““anti-abortion, anti-masturbation, anti-premarital-sex, anti-stem-cells, anti-gay-marriage, dubious-about-evolution Christian conservative””

    That along with “anti-deficits” sums up the platform of the Tea Party.

    You go, Christine!!!

    Karl isn’t the boss of you.

  • Big Eddie

    Christine is charming enough to whisk away the dirt that is shoved her way . Every dame is a little wacky , especially when they’re young . The Delaware voter can sort out the positions each candidate takes . It looks like Coons may have more issues than National Geographic . Delaware will sort it out ,see ?

  • Fox News: We proudly pander to Teabaggers

    I hate these concern-trolls who are so befuddled and bewildered about the interest of the media in a race that is to be decidedly exclusively by the Delaware voters.

    What about the million plus dollars of out-of-state money raised by the tea party to influence the outcome of the Delaware race? Where is your fu******** concern for that..

  • AngelPeters

    This Rove-Palin-O’Donnell side show is completely entertaining. She is taking on the GOP bull dog. Great for ratings

  • Big_F-ing_Deal

    ““I was in high school, how many of you didn’t hang out with questionable folks in high school?”

    I’m sure that’s exactly what those witches are saying about you now.

    They are probably pretty embarrassed they ever knew you and are relegating it to youthful folly.

  • felixw

    O’Donnell is taking the right approach here. If the accusation is no better than a joke, respond with a joke. On the other hand, if opponents want to debate issues — which seems to be the one thing the mainstream media doesn’t want to do in during this campaign season — then (even better) debate the issues.

    If the media wasn’t corrupt and biased, this election would allow us to have a public dialogue on the role and scope of government. But all indications are that CNN, CBS, MSNBC, ABC, the New York Times, the Washington Post, etc. are determined to avoid any substantive discussion of key issues during this campaign. Instead we get to talk about witchcraft and masturbation…..So O’Donnell is right to laugh off these diversionary tactics.

  • ganymede

    I’m really trying to get a handle on what’s happening with the Republican/Teabagger movement. Since there is a little bit of intelligent dialogue on this website, I’d like to throw out this question. How on earth can you support such backward people? We already have enough dunderheads in Congress. People like Imhofe who can’t understand the obvious situation with global warming; people like Boehner who would destroy America in order to carry out the ‘conservative’ agenda; people like Bachmann, Demint and, possibly, Palin and Gingrich and dozens of others, mostly Republicans, who either don’t believe in any government outside of the military and highways, and have no smarts or common sense asides from skills at grabing power. And now we have O’Donnell with her screwy sense of morality and personal finances, and great need for fame and fortune. On a personal level she, like Geo Bush might be a very nice person, but she is not qualified to be in any position of power. Is your hatred or dislike of Obama and all he stands for so great that you are taking leave of your senses in supporting these characters and what they stand for. What do they stand for? The Free Enterprise System which we all support since it is the only system that works, but it has to be regulated and run fairly. As far as having a thought out program about what needs to be done the Republicans don’t have a clue asides from scaling down social security and health care and lower and lower taxes and being belligerant and angry with the world. We live in a very complex society and we desperately need good government run by people who know what’s happening in the world and know how to conduct themselves in it. Your rightwing politicos for the most part don’t have a clue and if Bush and the current crop are any examples, you still want to take us backwards. We already are falling behind many other nations, but I understand your fear and anger-it’s tough times for most of us. I’m 73 and I’d like to say, especially to older people that this is a time to think things through and not take, childish, selfish actions.

    As long as she votes to stop the progressives, nothing else matters.

  • AFM

    So far both quitter Palin and her little munchin have shown how much they hate men. Now being a feminist myself I don’t think I ever hated men and wouldn’t insult them just to win an election. Mr. Rove is a poor excuse for a human being but I wonder if she talked to him the way Palin and O’Cracker tells them to buck up and put your man pants on what would people do if he turned around and said something sexist to those two. Palin has been a cancer on this country and now it is spread. Let’s all hope that smarter heads will prevail in Delware. People need to wake up and realize this isn’t just a movement to get conservatives in. It is also a movement to get the religious right to have a foot hold and take over the party. The republicans have allowed this to happen and lets home some smart republicans will clean their mess up. The republicans hated Obama more than they hated the country and now the country is paying for it. Shame on McCain and the republican party for allowing it to get this far. You knew exactly what they were doing. You let the monster out of the bag. Sarah wasn’t happy enough to destroy Wallisa leaving them a debt now she wants more power. Watch out for what you pray for.

  • BlackWidow

    These Republican women are real sweethearts. As far as you men go I can understand why you like Palin and her latest whack-job. Both attractive and personable. I have not heard any of you name any specific qualifications for either one.

    I love it that Republicans wants women all to stay in the dark ages. Especially you “old” white guys that don’t want women to do anything but cook,clean and take care of kids. OUR BODIES ARE NOT OUR OWN and you like it that way. Oh my goodness the thought of women being ok with masterbation and not even needing a man for an organism. How terrible.

    Now you all can jump on me lor better just ignore me. Either way I have said how I see things. The Dems don’t have the answer to many things either but at least they let people make up their own minds. To me that is freedom.

  • The Real Royal King

    You notice O’Donald says she went to high school, not that she graduated. If it weren’t for her opposition to pre-marital sex, she’d be close enough to the Drop Out Governor to be her daughter.

    That is a real sick way to look at. Anyone even a r\total whack-job will do. What in the world do you think these people are going tro get done when they get tro DC??? Do you really think McConnel and the “Boner” will let them take over. Ain’t gonna happen. You betcha. O’Donnell will have to resort to her witchcraft on those to. One thing I can say ks that kt will make great fun to watch. Come on SNL.

  • chucken

    O’Donnell could care less about actually winning a Senate seat.It’s what her former campaign staff said that a TV gig and making money is issue #1.She will lose and lose badly.That she is turning into a national joke is unimportant because enough stupid fucking teabaggers will part with there money just as they did for Palin,Gingrich and Beck to listen to another rightwing wackjob.Stupid sells.

    Many intelligent people dabbled in leftist politics when they were in college. It is largely positive. It reaffirms the value of capitalism by questioning it. When you reach that inevitable conclusion that there is some tie between free markets and individual freedoms, you have the zeal of a convert, but it is an informed belief. Much stronger than blockheads who never question, or worse, are fearful of questioning. That’s the rub, isn’t it? People who never question are expressing a fear that the system they blindly espose cannot stand up to scrutiny. It diminishes the system.

    Of course, O’Donald only “went” to college, so she never had the opportunity for this epiphany.

    As for witchcraft, it is merely an indicia of nuttiness. I frankly don’t much care, but I do think there is something whacky about a teen who has finds masturbation a great evil, and witchcraft sort of thrilling. If O’Donald were a guy, I’d lock up “my” women.

    On the whole, I think our Republic could withstand an uneducated frigid witch, but I think it could also do better.

    I suspect you’re correct. Beckerhead, the Drop Out Governor and the Non-Masturbating Witch believe in nothing but themselves.

If there are 293,000 registered Democrats in Deleware and 183,000 registered Republicans, and O’Donnell got a total of 30,000 votes to beat Mike Castle, does anyone here really think she’s going to beat Coons? And what happened to the other 153,000 registered Republicans who didn’t vote for her in the Primary?

    O’Donnell’s Spending ‘Illegal’

    The spotlight is now on Christine O’Donnell, the 41-year-old Sarah Palin-endorsed upset winner of Delaware’s GOP Senate primary, and from the looks of it, it ain’t pretty. O’Donnell is currently being targeted by a watchdog group claiming the Tea Partier abused campaign funds for personal use and made false statements on forms she filed with the Federal Elections Commission. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which earlier in the year scrutinized Charlie Rangel, filed a complaint to the U.S. Attorney’s office in Delaware and the Federal Elections Commission alleging that O’Donnell illegally spent more than $20,000 in 2009 and 2010. “It turns out Miss O’Donnell has treated her campaign funds like they are her very own personal piggy bank,” said Melanie Sloan, the group’s executive director. “She’s used that money to pay for things like her rent, for gas, meals, and even a bowling outing. And that’s just flat-out illegal.” Much of these campaign expenses were made in 2009, when O’Donnell was not a candidate for anything. Representatives for O’Donnell could not be reached for comment. The Daily Beast’s Benjy Sarlin reported earlier this week that O’Donnell paid her mother $3,500 for consulting on her last campaign.

    While you ponder that and try to figure out the math in my first coment, I’m going to bed!

    “Donors to CREW include such liberal groups as George Soros’ Open Society Institute, Democracy Alliance, Service Employees International Union, the Arca Foundation, and the Gill Foundation.[6][12][13] The Roll Call article also stated that the CREW mission statement had changed since 2005, when it read that CREW “differs from other good government groups in that it sues offending politicians directly” and that it “aims to counterbalance the conservative legal watchdog groups that made such a strong impact over the past decade.”"

    Well, since the 11 year old had to go to bed, here is the answer…. this watchdog group – just happens to be a George Soros front. Gee, do you think they might be biased and not worth a piece of crap? How about they go after their friends like Maxine Waters or that pillar of honesty, just re-elected Charley Rangel? by the way, do you thing Charley Rangel just might have committed some really criminal things for big, big bucks? yet, he is going to be re-elected…. on purely racial reasons… so, which is the racist group?

    From a wag at The Agitator:

    Since when did making crazy, nonsensical public statements in the heat of a political campaign become a disqualification for a Senate seat held by Joe Biden for three decades?

    Aside from the fact that the O’Donnell statements are much older than this campaign, that could be the best final word on the topic. It won’t be, of course, but it could.

    The contrast between the two parties couldn’t be more pronounced.

What a striking contrast!

    The ignorance swirls about her. She makes money. The country descends and no one with a voice cares – or are worse unheard. We all fall like stars from the sky. Palin and Beck are millionaires.

    Yeah, the MSM sure did run with the reverend Wright thing, didn’t they buddy?

  • zumpano

    Yeah, Pap Smear. I remember that non-story being exploited on the news during the election.

    If you’re implying that the MSM didn’t cover it; then why did Obama need to come out and give his now-classic speech on Race?

    Also, if Fox is #1; they’re the MSM.

    On Hannity & Limbaugh? The only MSM coverage were diversions and mocking conservatives for wanting to make it a big deal. Furthermore, do you think that the Wright thing was not a big deal? Tell you what, I’d trust a person who played witch as a teenager long before I’d trust a person who, as an adult, sat in a racist, anti-American liberation theology church for twenty years.

  • zumpano

    Yeeeeah, Obama had to address the matter in a MAJOR speech only because Hannity and Limbaugh were talking about it.

    WHATEVER

    LOLS ABOUND

    FOX IS MSM or LSM as you put it

  • Mr.Papshmer

    You kids crack me up. Liberals own nine tenths of the news media, practically all of the entertainment industry, and most of what kids sponge up into their little noggins in public schools and universities. Yet Obama had to come out and denounce his “mentor” and lie about his church beliefs because Hannity was talking about it. Yes, that’s correct, Hannity and LImbaugh drove most of that. An example of how impotent the MSM has become. No one trusts them anymore. Those of us who pay taxes, anyway, something you might have to do someday, junior.

    Whoa, settle down pal, you’re going to have an aneurysm or sumpin… :)

    And by the way, I have every right to decide if Obama’s lying, and I have decided that, when faced with the fact that he attended a racist, anti-American church for twenty years without flinching, there are three possibilities:

    1) He’s so stupid that he didn’t know what his “mentor” was preaching. This isn’t remotely likely.

    2) He’s a racist, anti-American pig, and attended that church for that reason. This is quite likely.

    3) He sat in that church because it was politically prudent to endear himself to a bunch of racist, anti-American minorities in Chicago’s south side. This is also quite likely

    Obama sat in this church for twenty years with zero problem, and whether the answer is #2 or #3, or more likely a mix of the two, he is still an anti-American racist.

    Summary: I’m right, you know I’m right, but being a not-so-bright progressive who can see the writing on the wall, you stomp your feet and and resort to the “racist” thing, what a hoot! Sorry junior, you progressives have rendered the term “racist” so meaningless that it’s sort of a badge. It means you lose.

  • timcajun

    I feel bad that I lost. Thanks for the judgement. I really didn’t know what to do before you pointed that out! By the way you used racist four times, what does that mean! I wouldn’t understand, I’m a not so bright progressive. Junior has to get ready for bed now.

  • Mr.Papshmer

    I’ll explain: Since you’re a progressive, you use the term as a way to admit losing a debate. When I call Obama a racist, it’s because he’s a racist.

  • timcajun

    Wow, you really do believe you are right all the time! Let me understand this, whatever you say is right because you say so! By those rules you can’t lose. Well done!

  • Mr.Papshmer

    Thing is, when you’re debating a progressive, it’s pretty hard to be wrong! :)

  • timcajun

    Again, you really do believe you are right all the time,not by facts, but by “hey its you”! Since you need this , you are great, you are wonderful, boy are you are correct on all subjects, with no mistakes. Hows that?
