Christine O'Donnell is being audited on her campaign spending, as well she should. She made a devil's deal, sold the remaining fragments of her soul on a bet that she could become a Congress-critter. The Korporate Kampaign-fund Kartel fronted her undisclosed amounts of bread. But she didn't follow their rules. There's a quotation from Shakespeare, from the funeral of Falstaff "this huge hill of flesh, this breaker of horses backs, ... he was never, yet, a breaker of promises, he will give the devil his due." She's not given the devil his due. Devil says, look, all you have to do is occasionally chant "9-11!" or "Tax and Spend Liberals" and we'll do the rest, for lack-of-gods-sake don't try to write your own speeches or ad lib anything, because you're a moron." Did she listen? No, she did NOT listen. There's another quotation from a drill sergeant, "it's impossible for the ears and the mouth to work at the same time, you're either listening or running your head." Woman couldn't possibly shut the hell up long enough to listen. So, now she's being audited on her spending. And says it's Thug Tactics This from a woman who is paired up with a party that has as a big plank in its platform "English Only". As in using government power and other publicly owned resources to compel people to only speak English in public places, commerce, and in the wildest dreams of the Extremists who are pushing it, in private conversations in the home. (Because supposedly raising a child in a multilingual environment (even though people who actually study linguistics say otherwise) have difficulty learning the English language in school.) Now, English is my first language. I'm not an accomplished Linguist yet, that takes fluency in at least 5 languages. But I am adept in English. And I can positively say that the Tea Party, of whom Ms O'Donnell is a member, really don't speak English. They rail against Public Education for a reason, several more sinister reasons but the one I laugh about the most is because they don't want Public School elementary students outshining their own Hoam Skewel and Private Academy students. And they're not really good at speaking English. Or writing English. Before the squealing whines of "Elitism!" come cascading from the Far Right, I should point out that it's THEIR elitist notion that teaching and learning and speaking and writing Only One Language is somehow superior to being able to speak and read and write several. Because the English language, and the English RACE, are ever so superior to the Peasants who make up the rest of the world. Now, Thug, Thuggish, Thuggery, all stem from not an English word but an Urdu word, for a cult in India and Pakistan who sacrifice randomly selected people to their gods. Investigations into ones financial malfeasance (alleged) aren't "thug tactics". Let's see if, in the interest of education, we can provide Ms O'Donnell and her Demented Demonic Disciples with a few examples of Thug-like behavior, Strangling
