The hardcore fundamentalist Christians have a tendency to get around that problem by claiming that the assembly/translation of the KJV was divinely guided/inspired and thus inerrant. Seriously. A handful even believe that the KJV is a new revelation and thus supersedes the original texts. I wish I were making this up.

Oh, I believe it--there's some crazy stuff in there.

Personally, I'm waiting for the day we realize it was some crazy cave-hermit's unfinished novel.

She's a fucking idiot and her politics are contemptible nonsense. It's bad enough that you are defending her at all, but defending her from accusations nobody actually made? lol@u

O'Donnell looks creepily like Sarah Palin, only somewhat younger.
And she's dabbled in witchcraft. LOL. Does she keep voodoo dolls of her political opponents?

She's nuttier than a squirrel's pantry.
Kinect? KIN NOT.

How did you manage to find my reply if you didn't read the thread? For instance, read neorichieb1971's replies. I liked how you were so quick to jump at the sign of any post that wasn't completely outraged at her, though. "Defending" is not quite the word I would use, seeing as I don't know a damn thing about her aside from Red Eye making fun of her (which basically covered all the same important topics this thread did), and quite honestly couldn't really give a shit. The mention of witchcraft pretty much automatically makes her a dumbass in my mind. I was just reassuring our lovely forum members that nobody is actually trying to outlaw their favorite pasttime.

Try to be less angry next time, k?

Reserve the (non-PM) insults for the personalities being discussed and not each other, please.

"Nothing left out!" Classic.

Apparently O'Donnell was the target of many a joke on the season opener of SNL. Didn't watch it yet. Contemplating the DL. And I like your sum-up of Reagan, BL.
