Sharron Angle On Her Campaign: 'God Has Been In This From The Beginning'

[ccharles000]

The Tea Party movement is better-known for its alignment with libertarian, anti-Washington sentiment than for its ties to social conservatism. But in an effort to build as broad a coalition as possible in her effort to unseat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), Tea Party favorite Sharron Angle is checking all the boxes.

Over the weekend, Angle participated in an interview with Ralph Reed, the longtime conservative activist, founder of the Christian Coalition, and the man once deemed the "right hand of god" by Time Magazine. And in the course of answering a question about her rise from relative obscurity, the Nevada Republican made a rather bold declaration. Her path to victory, she said, was God's plan.

"How do you explain all this? You're now a national story, are you kind of overwhelmed by it all?" asked Reed.

"I believe that God has been in this from the beginning and because of that when he has a plan and a purpose for your life and you fit into that, what he calls you to he always equipped you for," Angle replied.

1. Good thing I don't believe in God or I would be really pissed at

the Supreme Being.

[RC]

2. It seems to me someone else thought that also.

Ran for president -Lost in a land slide.
When are we going to start getting these people into treatment that hear voices in their heads telling them what to do?
We have enough insane people in our government already.

3. God is not a citizen of this country...How dare Angle accept aid...

from a being that can not show proof of birth in this nation.

4. Good lord don't bring that up or the nit wits might decide to pass an amendment

to grant god citizenship, a BC and everything else including citizenship for Jeebus.

5. I had not of that.

What an idea for a short story.

6. Considering the vastness of the universe, one would think the Almighty had more pressing

matters to deal with than to be interceding in a partisan election in a sparsely populated state in a country whose population is only about 5% of a tiny planet we call earth, one of the innumerable planets in the universe possibly capable of supporting intelligent life. :P

7. There are Billions of other stars with planetary systems like us

therefor there has to be millions of other planets supporting life.

God is indeed very busy looking after all those living beings.

8. Yeah, just like all of Ralphie Reed's wheeling and dealing for Abramoff was part of God's plan.

:eyes:

9. to negate the "god" talk...the dems should say god is with them also

just out god them (IMO)

10. God provides good examples as well as horrible warnings

They both serve the same purpose.
