O’Donnell has long been a member of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. And, because of her having no decernible skills other than to look pretty and spout off radical talking points on TV, she has a long long library of television appearances that are just a goldmine. We just scratched the surface of the television appearances where Christine embarrasses herself with her radical extremist views.
TPM has found a clip of O’Donnell on CSPAN in 1996 where O’Donnell complained that people were on a witch hunt to find anything to get Gingrich, instead of paying attention to serious ethics scandals — like putting Bill Clinton on trial for the supposed murder of Deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster.
“I think it’s very interesting that President Clinton has come on a lot more charges and a lot more serious charges than what Newt Gingrich is being charged on, yet we’re not making as big of an issue, we’re not forcing that he go to trial,” said O’Donnell. “We’re not giving people like Paula Jones a fair trial, we’re not giving the case of Vincent Foster a fair trial — when there is a lot more empirical evidence that Clinton is involved in wrongdoing.”
“Well, I think people are out on a witch hunt for Newt Gingrich,” said O’Donnell. “They’re just seeking anything to bring against him, because if you look at the charges, failing to seek legal advice on his tax exempt status. By no means am I dismissing the charge, but when you look in comparison, the beast of Whitewater that Bill Clinton is involved in and the little attention that that is getting, and the little serious investigation that that is getting.
“Bill Clinton is charged of — for much more serious accounts of fraud than a mistake that Newt Gingrich got in. If you examine almost anybody’s tax records you can find something to charge them on. I hate to admit, but taxes are very complicated, so you can find something to bring almost anybody.
“And then there’s also the issue of murder with Vincent Foster. That’s a much more serious charge than failing to seek legal advice[.]”
I think Christine O’Donnell mistakes baseless accusations for acutal evidence. You know Christine, just because Jerry Falwell said it, doesn’t make it true.
