Get Fucked, Christine O’Donnell. No, Seriously, Get Fucked.

Christine O’Donnell is the Republican candidate for the United States Senate from Delaware.  In many ways, she is an east coast Sarah Palin.  She is popular with the tea party folks.  She was endorsed by Palin.  She is, like Palin, a very attractive woman.  (I think she looks a bit like Sally Field.  I like Sally Field.  Very much.)  And she is nuttier than a pecan pie.

She reckons that condoms are a bad thing because they promote promiscuity and that if gay people get AIDS, well, tough luck, that’s the life style they chose.  She is opposed to Universal Health Care on the grounds that “God may or may not choose to cure your cancer, but he doesn’t have to pay your medical bills.”  (I may not have the quote exactly right, but that was the gist of it)  When the Republican National Committee threatened to not fund her campaign, on account of she’s too weird even for them, she said God would foot the bill.

The weirdest part of all, though, is that she’s big on the whole abstinence before marriage thing.  She even said that masturbation is wrong, because that’s not part of the whole holy matrimony for the purpose of procreation thingie.  This wouldn’t t be too surprising coming from Sarah Palin, who is married and has a brood of kids.  It is really weird, however, coming from a 41 year old woman who is not, and has never been, married.

Is Christine O’Donnell really a 41 year old virgin?  I doubt it.  Republicans don’t necessarily feel any need to practice the morals they preach, and the crowd that votes for them never seems to care.

It might explain some of her whackier positions, though.  Everybody has sexual urges, a certain level of sexual drive coursing through their body.  Deliberately suppressing that is a good way to drive yourself nuts.  So, do yourself and the rest of the world a favor, Christine O’Donnell.  Get fucked.
