The Katherine Harris Freakshow

Saturday, August 26, 2006

It gets more painful by the day to hear anything out of the mouth by Florida U.S. Senate candidate Katherine Harris. The latest meltdown bleating:
In an interview with the Florida Baptist Witness, the weekly journal of the Florida Baptist State Convention, Harris described her faith, saying it animates "everything I do," including her votes in Congress.

She warned that if voters do not send Christians to office, they risk creating a government that is doomed to fail.


"Whenever we legislate sin," she said, "and we say abortion is permissible and we say gay unions are permissible, then average citizens who are not Christians, because they don't know better, we are leading them astray and it's wrong . . ."

"And if we are the ones not actively involved in electing those godly men and women," then "we're going to have a nation of secular laws. That's not what our founding fathers intended and that's (sic) certainly isn't what God intended."
Needless to say, Dem Bill Nelson will be cruising to victory in November.
