If we're gonna play THAT game: I'm 100% sure that MOST states have their list of "weird" politicians both Dem and Repub.

I live in Arizona and am a non practicing Catholic, let that "lady" TELL me to go to church, I'd laugh.

She wasn't elected through votes. Her predecessor apparently fell off a horse and died. She was put in office as a result.

Gimme a break!

Every country in the world has been conquered at some point in their history. Hey, Mom, I know! You can plan a world tour where you visit the graves of all the conquerors and yell at them!

The lefties don't want to actually read the story, understand what was said and have to think. It is much easier to take 10 words out of context than to have to actually discuss the context in a respectful discussion.

She was not seriously thinking it could be done as law.

She's still a nutter, though, because she was serious about sincerely wishing for it.

No, it wasn't a goofy thing to say it would be nice if we didn't have to resort to allowing people to carry concealed weapons because so many people don't have a moral compass, which was the gist of what she said.

So one Senator's musings, not a proposal mind you, but musings and hyperbole to make a point because an AZ GOP platform item?

Why is the left so intellectually lazy?

She isn't going to force anyone to do anything. She didn't even propose forcing anyone to do anything.

But I doubt you read her full comments because that might be hard.

She didn't suggest mandatory church attendance.

This woman is right, I agree with her wholeheartedly.

Her point was that if people today had a better moral grounding, they wouldn't need guns to protect themselves and their families.

That is a lie, not one single church has or will be forced to marry anyone they choose not to. What purpose do you have to lie about this?
