You're right, she doesn't say anything specific about mind control. But she does believes the government is using chemtrails to manipulate us, which is Conspiracy Theory 101.
"Plus we just don't want to believe that our government would do anything terrible to us. Well, just a few examples, the IRS attack on the Tea Party, Benghazi, wire taping, Fast and Furious just to name a few and we think that they would not manipulate our weather?"
Why she said it is immaterial. She believes it's something that we should consider:
"I believe what's happening to our country is that there's a moral erosion of the soul of America," she said. "It's the soul that is corrupt. How we get back to a moral rebirth I don't know. Since we are slowly eroding religion at every opportunity we have. Probably we should be debating a bill requiring every American to attend a church of their choice on Sunday to see if we can get back to having a moral rebirth."
There's no need to "smear" her. She explains her positions well enough all by herself.
Why she said it is context.
The meaning of what she said depends on why she said it.
I highly doubt the state of education could be any worse in this country, even with people like this overseeing it.
If you read your link, they do no provide any proof that she believes the earth is 6000 years old, or that the U.S. government regularly sprays its citizens with mind-controlling chemtrails. In fact they show her quote about chemtrails, and she never mentioned that the government was involved, or that chemtrails are for are mind-control. Also, she talked about legislation to require people to go to church, as a means to squash anti-gun legislation that was being pushed.
Your link is a complete fail. This woman may be unqualified to lead the Senate education committee, but this smear job is nothing less than pathetic.
Whatever else the case(s) may be, is this person a young earth creationist? if so, they have no business having anything to do with education.
Remember, boys and girls: When it's a Conservative, context suddenly becomes relevant.
Yep, just like context mattered when the president said "you didn't build that."
Oh, wait...
