Tea Party: dangerous or stupid?

Republican Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell of Delaware is questioning whether the U.S. Constitution prohibits the government from establishing religion.

In a debate at Widener University Law School, O'Donnell criticized Democratic nominee Chris Coons' position that teaching creationism in public school would violate the First Amendment by promoting religious doctrine.

O'Donnell asked where the Constitution calls for the separation of church and state. When Coons responded that the First Amendment bars Congress from making laws respecting the establishment of religion, O'Donnell asked: "You're telling me that's in the First Amendment?"

The exchange Tuesday aired on radio station WDEL generated a buzz among law professors and students in the audience.

These goddamned ignorant motherfucking shitheads claim to be the only true protectors of our precious American Constitution, yet their fucking poster child can't even be arsed to know what the fuck the fucking thing says.

I mean, it's right fucking here on the internet! And I'll even reproduce the entirety of the First Amendment right here on my internet journal!

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Americans: if you vote Tea Party, you're voting for ignorant bullshit. Oh, sure, they mouth the Libertarian paradise words "lower taxes" and "smaller government," but really they're the fucking Gingrich-Pat Robertson-Ralph Reed axis back in the spotlight.

And fuck them, and fuck YOU if you vote for them.
