Christine O'Donnell walks out on CNN's Piers Morgan

Who said it was "fine" for Jimmeh to be an idiot, Dixtard?


He was lambasted then for his wacko views, just as the Prayer Witch Project is a laughingstock now.

No, he was never lambasted from the left, he was elected to the presidency. I don't think O'Donnell is anywhere near being elected president. In fact, I don't even think she is running for political office, is she? And if it's "fair game" to raise issues about her "wacko religious views" then it should be equally okay to compare them with the religious views of a man you people nominated and elected the President of the United States.

No, actually, the upper 51% pay 100% of all taxes. The wealthy don't pay their "fair" share, they pay an extremely "unfair" share... they pay their share and someone elses share, and the people who aren't paying their fair share, are those who pay no income tax at all.... 49% of us. Now, we agreed to this arrangement long ago, and the wealthy people didn't have a problem pitching in a little more to cover those who couldn't afford to pay, but over the years, those who aren't paying ANYTHING, have increasingly ordered more and more from the menu, and the bill has become ridiculous. Now the wealthy are complaining they can't continue to do this, and you are bitching that they aren't paying their "fair share." They are the only ones paying a share...and someone else's share too!

Actually, as I pointed out, Carter's religious view took it one step further into 'wackoville' than O'Donnell. I think both views are based on the same scripture, but Carter contended in Playboy that it was 'adulterous' to lust for other women in your heart... that doesn't even involve masturbation... just the act of THINKING about another woman in that context, is a sin. But we don't hear relentless obsessive posts going on and on and on and on... about Carter's wacko religious views. Nope, we won't hear a goddamn word about Carter, because he is a Liberal, and they can have whatever wacky views they please, that's fine... they are LIBERALS!

But he was talking personally - within the context of his own marriage.

O'Donnell was talking about masturbation....

She was talking personally as well! Neither of them were discussing public policy or making a law. Both were articulating their personal religious beliefs. The difference is, O'Donnell is a conservative with an R beside her name, and Carter is a liberal with a D beside his name.... oh, and Carter's view is even more restrictive than O'Donnell's. Where O'Donnell thinks it's sinful to masturbate to the thoughts of another woman, Carter thinks it's sinful just to have that thought. Yet, you pinheads lined up to nominate him and elect him president.

You're missing the point. Carter was saying it's a sin for married people like himself to have lust in their heart for another person.

O'Donnell was saying it's a sin to have lust period, talking about masturbation. It's an interesting view, which is why Piers was asking about it.

You're spinning to try to create equivalency - which is sad, since Carter was Prez about 40 years ago at this point. But let's call it for what it is: spin.

I don't have to "create" equivalence, they are already equivalent views, and you've not demonstrated how that isn't the case. Both people are talking about their personal religious views regarding adultery. Both are talking about married people, else O'Donnell's masturbation can't be defined as adulterous, even by her own criteria. Adultery is cheating on your spouse, if you don't have a spouse, you can't commit adultery, whether you masturbate or not. It appears O'Donnell thinks it's adulterous to masturbate while thinking of another woman, other than your wife... Carter thinks it's adulterous just thinking, you don't even have to masturbate. Now, you can think both views are wacky if you want, but there really isn't a way to justify Carter's view as non-wacky and O'Donnell's as nutso. If what she said is crazy, what Carter said is even MORE crazy!
 
You didn't see O'Donnell's comments, did you?

She was talking about younger people & masturbation. She wasn't talking about marriage, married couples & adultery.

Not even a nice try, Dix. No equivalency.

Yes, I've read her comments, and I didn't say her and Carter were talking about the exact same thing or making the exact same point. They are both articulating a Christian religious view, which is based on specific scripture. I'm not a theologian or advocate of scriptural meanings, I have no idea which view, if either, is accurate or correct, they are both the views of the individuals in question and they would have to answer for themselves on that. The fact remains, it is still an equivalent comparison of two politicians expressing their religious view. One is okay with you, justified, condoned.. you elected the man president. The other is radical and extreme and wacko, because it comes from someone who identifies as a Republican conservative. You have been exposed, and you don't like that... so you now claim that I am 'spinning' something.
 
Dixtard is failing. Maybe he's not using enough CAPS, exclamation points, and references to "pinheads".

Because Carter is talking about lusting after another woman while he's married. O'Donnell is talking about having lust while masturbating.

Big difference.
 
Meanwhile, if Dixtard will allow me, I'd like to return to the topic of the thread: the stupidity of the Teabagger witch.


While she's still making news headlines, her book, released on Tuesday, isn't selling any better.

Friday morning, Troublemaker was ranked 3,105 on Amazon's Bestsellers Rank, a drop from the previous day when news broke that she had walked off Morgan's show.

Readers have given her book a two star out of a possible five star rating in 27 reviews at Amazon.

numbers from inventory at Ingram, the largest wholesaler to bookstores, indicate that O'Donnell's book is barely selling at all.

On Monday, Ingram's four warehouses spread across the country had 925 units in total on hand -- the most being 429 at the company's Pennsylvania warehouse.

By Friday morning, almost two days after the publicity, Ingram warehouses still had a total of 895 on hand.

The Ingram warehouse number is typically an indicator of book demand since many independent stores and even some chain stores order initial stock from the company, and also reorder books with high demand from Ingram.

Teatards like Yurt, Damocles, and Dix are desperately dancing to deflect attention from the vapidity of their heroine.


How many talk shows did Jimmy Carter run out on?

They are both religiously-based Christian personal views. Where is there any difference in that?

And how do you get O'Donnell equating masturbation with adultery, if marriage isn't involved? Adultery is cheating on your spouse. If masturbation equals adultery, it could only be if you are married, that's the only way it could be adulterous. So either you don't know what O'Donnell said, or she doesn't know what adultery is. I'm not here to defend anything she said, or anything Carter said... just to point out that people on both sides often articulate their personal religious viewpoints. When someone on the left does it, you have no problem with it, and it doesn't matter how crazy or radical extreme it might be, they are liberals, and it's their personal business and no one else. When it's someone on the right, you light the torches and get the pitchforks out, they have to be lynched as extremist radical wackos!

So if I'm single, and I have an affair with a married woman, am I committing adultery?
 
Since Dixie feels the need to go back sveral decades in his desperate deflection dance, this is for him:

Who brought Carter into a thread discussing O'Donnell's flee-bagging an interview?


You said Carter also held wacko views on sex. I agreed.


You claimed liberals gave Carter a pass - without providing any evidence.


Maybe they did, although a) I'm not a liberal, so I don't care, b) you failed to prove they gave him a pass, and 3) it's irrelevant to the topic.


Now, apropos of the thread topic, did Jimmy Carter ever walk out of an interview like Christine O'Donnell did?

Yes, or, no?
