this is just fun...

Okay, I really tried to stay silent regarding Christine O'Donnell's Senate candicacy... but this is just too much fun.

First, from Think Progess:
O’Donnell So Fervently Pro-Truth That She Wouldn’t Lie To Nazis Asking If She Were Hiding Jews In Her Home
Yep - O'Donnell is so committed to the truth that she'd have given up Jews to the Nazis!

... BUT: she's more than happy to LIE about her academic credentials (via TPM):
Claremont Institute Tells TPM O'Donnell's 2002 Resume Listed Oxford University
... for those of you who haven't been paying attention, TWO "professional networking" websites in O'Donnell's name have included references to her completing courses at Oxford (England) and Claremont Graduate University(California). Neither claim is true. In 2006 she claimed an undergraduate degree from Fairleigh Dickinson - also not true.
[She WAS awarded bachelor's degree from Fairleigh Dickinson in September of this year... after 1) paying tuition, and 2) completing a required course.]

Ordinarily the peccadilloes of politician's don't engage me all that much... but in this case:
Yes, she'd give up Jews to the Nazis so's not to abuse her truth-telling conscience!

BUT...

She's more than happy to LIE about her academic credentials in pursuit of political ambition.
Go figure.
