Playing The Paranoia Angle, Part 8

And Sharron Angle is now certifiably insane.
It has become commonplace for Republicans to claim that Democratic policies violate this or that part of the Constitution. But Nevada's Senate Republican candidate Sharron Angle is taking that one step further, claiming that her opponent's legislative victories amount to a violation of the Bible's First Commandment.

"[T]hese programs that you mentioned -- that [President] Obama has going with [Harry] Reid and [Nancy] Pelosi pushing them forward -- are all entitlement programs built to make government our God," Angle said in a little noticed interview with Christian Radio this past spring. "And that's really what's happening in this country is a violation of the First Commandment. We have become a country entrenched in idolatry, and that idolatry is the dependency upon our government. We're supposed to depend upon God for our protection and our provision and for our daily bread, not for our government."
OK, Nevada?  If you elect this woman as your Senator?  We're disowning you.  Seriously. 

All jokes aside, this woman is a crackpot.  She has no business being anywhere near our government.  She should be laughed off the national stage.  The sad part is she'll still get at least 40% of the vote.
