Crazy Candidate of the Day

Bloggers rejoice, our jobs just got a little easier. Sharron Angle is running for Congress!



 If you don't feel like sitting through the video, the announcement goes something like this:

People are talking about losing their homes, unemployment and making ends meet. Fortunately, the solution to all those problems can be found in the Second Amendment.

I'm most concerned with the debt we are passing on to our children. For some reason, it took me eight years to realize that debt was bad. But if we just go back to the Constitution, poof! Debt disappears!

The 2010 election was bittersweet. Conservatives won some victories, just not as many as they would have won had nutjobs like me and Christine O'Donnell not gotten nominated.

But we still face obstacles from Democrats, although technically, since we are the minority party, we are actually the obstacles, but why quibble when look how scary Nancy Pelosi's giant head is! Sure, she no longer has any power, but still!

The Obama administration has made it clear that it intends to pursue the very scary healthcare reform which already passed last year. Also job-killing policies. I'm not sure which policies those are, but just look at this pink slip. Obviously, something killed that job, and since Obama's face is next to the pink slip, well you do the math. 'Cause I sure can't.

And the Democrats for some reason have agreed to go along with the leader of their party! Especially Barney Frank. He's the biggest member of Congress, he dwarfs Harry Reid, so obviously Democrats = Gay!

So today I am announcing that I am running for Congress. Because if I couldn't win maybe the most winnable seat in the Senate, I'm sure that running for Congress will be just as successful--wait, no. That's not it. Um, God wants me to run? 

Beauty Tips from Sharron Angle -- Wait, Who?

You're invited to. . .

An evening with Joni Rogers-Kante, Founder & CEO of SeneGence International, featuring Makeup & Skincare Experts Jeri Taylor-Swade & Amber London and special guest Sharron Angle, former candidate for US Senate

.
Special guest Sharron who, now?

Do you mean Sharon STONE?



Or Sharon Ferguson?




Or, Hell, even Sharon Tate?



No, apparently, they really mean Sharron Angle.

Sharron will be sharing her beauty and makeup challenges during the campaign and how she overcame them!

 She had confidence that she would look great with 14 -16 hour days & with numerous appearances daily... so can you!

 Wow, so Sharron Angle finally found a challenge without a Second Amendment Solution? Maybe if she had spent less time overcoming the cosmetics challenges and more time working on the batshit insanity challenge, she might have. . . you know what, never mind. It's better that she devote her time to the hair and makeup challenges of the world.

P.S. Sorry, I just realized that the picture of Ms Stone is, shall we say, a bit risque'. I hope no one was offended. I would change out the picture, but then the terrorists will have won.

Sharron Angle's Handlers Still Letting Her Speak in Public

From the Las Vegas Sun:

Here is Sharron Angle speaking to a group of Hispanic students:

"So that’s what we want is a secure and sovereign nation and, you know, I don’t know that all of you are Latino. Some of you look a little more Asian to me. I don’t know that. [Note: it's the Hispanic Student Union. The whole room is Hispanic teenagers.]

Because if you want to win over a group of minorities, your best bet is to go with some variation of "Ah, I can't tell any of you apart!"

What we know, what we know about ourselves is that we are a melting pot in this country. My grandchildren are evidence of that. I’m evidence of that. I’ve been called the first Asian legislator in our Nevada State Assembly."

Yeah, I don't think anyone has ever called you that, Ma'am. I think maybe you heard wrong. Maybe they said you were the first Aging masturbator in the State Assembly. Maybe they said you were the first Crustacean in the State Assembly. Maybe someone said that you were the biggest frustration in the State Assembly.

UPDATE: The Angle campaign says she made that remark about being the first Asian legislator because "a reporter thought she looked Asian."

Has no one in Nevada ever seen an Asian person?

It's not that difficult. Check it out:



Asian Man



Hispanic Man



Asian Lady



White Lady



Crazy Asian Lady



Crazy White Lady


I suppose at this point, Angle should get points for not pulling at the corners of her eyes and chanting "Ching chong, me love you long time!"



UPDATE: Crooks & Liars has the video:



She's even stupider than I thought!

Sharron Angle Just Keeps Getting Crazier

I don't even have a comment on this story:

Angle: Muslim law taking hold in parts of US

By CRISTINA SILVA, Associated Press Writer Cristina Silva, Associated Press Writer – 35 mins ago

LAS VEGAS – U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle told a crowd of supporters that the country needs to address a "militant terrorist situation" that has allowed Islamic religious law to take hold in some American cities.
In a recording of the rally provided to The Associated Press by the Mesquite Local News, a man is heard asking Angle : "I keep hearing about Muslims wanting to take over the United States ... on a TV program just last night, I saw that they are taking over a city in Michigan and the residents of the city, they want them out. They want them out. So, I want to hear your thoughts about that."

(Okay, one comment. The residents of Dearborn, MI and the Muslims "taking over" that city are the same people. There is a very large Muslim population there. They are "taking over" Dearborn in the same way that German immigrants "took over" much of Minnesota and Italian immigrants "took over" North Beach in SF, by moving there in large numbers. There's nothing nefarious going on there.)

Angle responds that "we're talking about a militant terrorist situation, which I believe it isn't a widespread thing, but it is enough that we need to address, and we have been addressing it."

"My thoughts are these, first of all, Dearborn, Michigan, and Frankford, Texas are on American soil, and under constitutional law. Not Sharia law. And I don't know how that happened in the United States," she said. "It seems to me there is something fundamentally wrong with allowing a foreign system of law to even take hold in any municipality or government situation in our United States."

Dearborn, Mich., has a thriving Muslim community. It was not immediately clear why Angle singled out Frankford, Texas, a former town that was annexed into Dallas around 1975.

Angle is in a dead-heat race against Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid

Crazy Candidate of the Day

May I have the envelope, please?

Today's winner is. . .

Oh, my God! It's Sharron Angle again!



What did Sharron Angle do now? Well, it's really what she did back in 1991.

I remember it like it was yesterday. . . . . . . .


(via the Parumph Valley Times)

The heart of the story starts in 1991 and, perhaps surprisingly, with the Tonopah High School football team.

Mired in a dismal season, the Muckers traveled to Laughlin that fall. To nearly everyone’s surprise, the relatively-new Clark County school defeated Tonopah. It was Laughlin’s first-ever football win.

Tonopah coach Randy Jones was so incensed that he told his team in the locker room following the game it was the blackest day in Mucker history.

Springing ahead, Jones came up with an innovative idea to fire up his charges for their 1992 homecoming game against Laughlin. Utilizing the “darkest day” theme, he suggested the Muckers could wear black jerseys to remember the previous year’s debacle.

Okay, so far, pretty innocuous story about a local high school football team, right?

WRONG!

. . . opposing the black jerseys was another group including Angle, a member, if not its leader.

They argued against our charges wearing black on religious grounds.

Religious, um. . .what now? What religious principle was violated by the team wearing different colored jerseys?

I cannot quote scripture as they did to justify their point but the gist of their argument was that black as a color was thoroughly evil, invoking the supernatural and especially the devil.

So, Angle was freaked out because the kids' jerseys were the color of evil?

You know, I could see a parent maybe being bothered by their son playing for, say, the "Blue Devils"

or maybe the "Blue Demons"

Or the "Sun Devils."

I could see where that might offend someone's religious sensibilities. But the color black? The color black is too evil to wear on a jersey? Don't most ministers wear black?

Anyway, in the world of football, everyone knows the color of evil is powder blue!

So, I guess the point is that Sharron angle is an irrational nut who has no business seeking any position of responsibility. And she may pull off the seemingly impossible. She may save Harry Reid's job.

Crazy Candidate of the Day: Our first back-to-back winner!

Nevada's Sharron Angle just continues to top herself!
You kinda have to admire the dedication and commitment to utter insanity it takes to produce a track record like hers. Here's the latest:
(from the Las Vegas Sun)

Angle: “What’s happening (in America)..is a violation of the 1st Commandment,” entitlements “make government our God.”

You know, when I fired at the headline, I thought she said "First Amendment." Which seemed pretty nutty, but not up to her usual standards. But no, she says America is violating the First Commandment. And I'm pretty sure she's serious.

That's what Sharron Angle, the GOP nominee for the U.S. Senate, said in an April 21 interview with TruNews Christian Radio's Rick Wiles. I have obtained audio of the interview, previously unnoticed, which contains some startling rhetoric from the candidate who has said running for office was a calling from God.

Apparently, God has a sense of humor. "Hey, Saint Peter. Check it out, I'm going to tell that crazy lady to run for the Senate! pffft! Oh, man, she's really gonna do it! This is going to to be classic!"

But in this interview, she goes much further:

"And these programs that you mentioned -- that Obama has going with Reid and Pelosi pushing them forward -- are all entitlement programs built to make government our God. And that’s really what’s happening in this country is a violation of the First Commandment. We have become a country entrenched in idolatry, and that idolatry is the dependency upon our government. We’re supposed to depend upon God for our protection and our provision and for our daily bread, not for our government."

Right. She makes a good point. Back when this nation still had good values, we didn't need a police department. We just relied on God to protect us from criminals. And an army? Ha! That would have been a waste, what with God keeping the Russians from invading.

We should totally go back to that, but why stop there? Let's just ask God to build us roads and bridges. And if your house catches on fire, just pray for rain! Oh, we're going to save so much money! Matter of fact, why should I rely on my employer to provide me with a paycheck? That sounds pretty idolatrous! I'm going to quit my job and just wait for manna to fall from the sky to provide me with my daily bread.

"And I knew that all along when I started praying over a year ago over it. And this just seemed to be the battle that I needed to go to war with. And I need warriors to stand beside me. You know, this is a war of ideology, a war of thoughts and of faith. And we need people to really stand for faith and trust, not hope and change."

Yeah, fuck you, hope!

Also, one does not go to battlewith a war. That's like going against a baseball game with an inning. It just makes no sense. But hey, it's so great that you see our Nation as a battleground for your religious crusade. Especially when you talk about "Second Amendment remedies" And "taking out Harry Reid." That sort of violent rhetoric can only lead to positive results!

We all have plans, but at the end of the day we need to be content with that thought that God has ordered this day and that he will work it to get it for our good according to Romans 8:28. And also those things in the Old Testament where he says the world means it for bad, but God means it for good.

So then what's your fucking problem? If you believe that God will turn these "bad" things (like healthcare reform) into "good"( like, I guess, no healthcare for anyone?) then why bother to run for Reid's seat at all? Why not let him put his nefarious schemes into practice and trust that God will make them turn out for the good? Maybe these "bad" things are part of God's plan and He might take umbrage at your interfering with them.

Hey, if God "called you" to run for office, did it ever occur to you that Mormon God might have called Harry Reid to do the same? Maybe Harry Reid being the majority leader was Mormon God's plan. I'm pretty sure you don't want to tick off Mormon God!

Angle: We’re at war in this country – for our freedom, our culture, for our liberty, our Constitution, and we need a true, battle-tested, proven, Constitutional conservative to take out Harry Reid. It isn’t just about anybody but Harry.

Really? It's not about the betterment of our nation? It's just about sticking it to Harry? Really?

When he says that he’s voted seven times against partial-birth abortion, we need someone who can say, “And I have a better pro-life record than you, Harry Reid, and we don’t like the way you confirm our Supreme Court judges, who are all pro-choice.

All of them? Really? Who has Harry confirmed? Let's see, there's John Roberts (Catholic, pro-life) Samuel Alito (Catholic, pro-life) and Sonia Sotomayor who can't necessarily be counted on either side of the divide--as Black Christian News.com says of her: "she has reached outcomes in some cases that were favorable to abortion opponents. Now, some abortion rights advocates are quietly expressing unease that Judge Sotomayor may not be a reliable vote to uphold Roe v. Wade. . ."

So who are all these pro-choice justices he's been secretly confirming?

The same thing stands for those who love our Second Amendment. Harry Reid now has the NRA saying, “Thank Harry Reid for all his pro-gun votes.” Well, I have the GOA endorsement and we know that once again those Supreme Court judges would take away our right to keep and bear arms.

Okay, I don't know anything about the GOA (Gun Owners of America) but how could they possibly be any more pro-gun-nut than the NRA. And which judges have ever shown any evidence that they would take away your right to keep and bear arms? That's only taking place in your imagination! Would the NRA seriously throw their support behind Reid if any of this were true? Do you really think you know more about the battle over the 2nd Amendment than the N.R. Freakin-A?

Angle: We’re right to that point in the graph where it says, “government dependency.” And we know that once we have a majority that are dependent upon the government, we will lose our freedom; it says we go into bondage.

It says? What says we go into bondage? This graph you refer to? Some crazy book you read? What says we go into bondage?

No! Never mind. False alarm!

Our Founders warned against this. They said don’t… that your liberty is only as secure as the people are. Because once they, um, get the ability to vote themselves entitlements from the largesse of the government, liberty is done; freedom is over with.

Okay, it wasn't "The Founders" who said that. It was a fairly obscure Scottish professor named Alexander Tyler. And here is what he actually said:

"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a
permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until
the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from
the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for
the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury,
with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose
fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship."

And there's no reason to think he was right about this. How many democracies had existed at the time he wrote this (1787)? What models did he have to base this on? The Roman Republic, and the Golden Age of Athens? I don't know how much relevance those examples had in 1787, let alone in the 21st Century.

I’ve also been endorsed by a PAC out of Washington D.C. and the name of that PAC is Government is not God. And I thought that that was so appropriate because that is really what’s happening in our society and we need to take our country back.

Vote for me! I've been endorsed by a PAC of lunatics!

Crazy Candidate Of The Day: our first two-time winner!

Today's Crazy Candidate is for the second time, Nevada's Sharron Angle!

Here's what Ms. Angle had to say during one of her super-rare appearances on the TV:
(with friendly FOX "news" guy Carl Cameron)

SHARRON ANGLE: We needed to have the press be our friend.

CAMERON: That sounds naive.

ANGLE: Well, no. We wanted them to ask the questions we want to answer so that they report the news the way we want it to be reported.

Wow! Do you really not get how this works? Do you honestly think that the press is supposed to be PR hacks for your campaign? I know that's what you're used to getting from FOX, but in the real world, reporters are supposed to ask the questions they think are important, not the ones you think you might help your campaign. The press is there to help us, not you. And by us, I mean the American public, the voters, your potential constituents. It is not their job to put softballs up on a tee for you. This isn't the Tonight Show, you're supposed to be able to handle tough questions. What are you, channeling Sarah Palin?



And legitimate reporters are sure as hell not supposed to let you solicit donations on the air.

I guess this explains why Sharron Angle won't talk to any press but FOX.

Hell, she won't even take questions at her own media events



Oh, and here's what happens when Angle does get legitimate questions:



How this woman is considered a legitimate candidate for the US Senate is beyond me.

Crazy Candidate of the Day

Today's Crazy Candidate:

Nevada's Sharon Angle!



Seriously insane Nevada Tea Partier Sharron Angle is running against Harry Reid for the US Senate.

And if she can't beat him in the voting booth, well there's always another option:

“I hope that’s not where we’re going, but, you know, if this Congress keeps going the way it is, people are really looking toward those Second Amendment remedies and saying, ‘my goodness what can we do to turn this country around?’ I’ll tell you the first thing we need to do is take Harry Reid out.”

Yep, like the old saying goes, if you can't beat him, call openly for his assassination!


And she knows what to do about the oil disaster in the Gulf:

QUESTION: You have been in support of onshore drilling in the United States as well as offshore drilling, are you rethinking that policy with what is going on in Louisiana?

ANGLE: No. I think that what happened in Louisiana was an accident. They're cleaning it up. We need to go forward and talk about prevention and not about whether we keep it out all together. We know that lot of the problems that have been caused for us with foreign policy and even with our own gas prices here domestically going up is our dependence upon foreign oil.

We have oil reserves and petroleum reserves that we should tap into. And that's a policy that we really need to look at as a nation. How do we deregulate enough to invite our industries to come back into the United States and quit outsourcing their business? (source)

Also, she believes that God has a plan for everyone. Unfortunately, that plan may include your being raped and impregnated,(audio) but you can't win 'em all!


And she understands about families. She has a well-though-out stance on family issues:

"Right now, we say in a traditional home one parent stays home with the children and the other provides the financial support for that family," she said. "That is the acceptable and right thing to do. If we begin to expand that, not only do we dilute the resources that are available, we begin to dilute things like health care, retirement, all the things offered to families that help them be a family."(huffpo)

Sure, it's incoherent, but what has Harry Reid ever done about the dilution of resources? Hmm?

So when you go to the polls this election season, and you live in Nevada, consider Sharron Angle for US Senate! Then hold your nose and vote for Harry Reid.
