No doubt about it, she's off the deep end and sinking fast. quote:
By ADAM C. SMITH and ANITA KUMAR
Published March 25, 2006
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Katherine Harris' rocky Senate campaign takes an increasingly evangelical Christian bent, her remaining top campaign staffers are preparing to jump ship.
Colleagues say Harris' closest confidante lately appears to be spiritual adviser Dale Burroughs, founder of the Biblical Heritage Institute in Bradenton.
"Dr. Dale," as she is known among campaign staffers, describes herself as a licensed clinical pastoral counselor who counsels in behavior temperament, career, crisis and disaster, among other things.
Burroughs has been advising Harris for years, but lately has had a more prominent role as Harris stopped listening to other campaign advisers. Burroughs said she has little role in the campaign beyond helping reach out to religious voters and is merely a Bible study partner and close friend.
Friends and advisers say Harris has been deeply religious all her life, but religion recently has become a central part of her campaign. Campaign staffers warily describe Harris as leading a "Christian crusade."
We knew that she was a strong contender for the somewhat less than prestigious Dingbat Award clear back in 2,000. Now it looks like she could win one with no contest.

Take a look what Kilgore outlines as firm contrasts to the sitting Governor:- 1-40 lashes for crime of maliciousness, like graffiti, porn, strip clubs.

- Execution for crime of adultery. (Leviticus 20:10)
- Execution for crime of homosexual acts. (Leviticus 20:13)
- Execution for crime of deadly negligence, like a DWI fatality. (Exodus 21:29)
- Texans should become independent then stop paying US taxes. $123B
- Texas should secede because the US has sealed its doom.
- Illegal immigrants should receive a minimum punishment of five lashes, $3,000 fine & deportation.
From Larrys FAQ quote:
The US Supreme court has ruled that Texas cannot prosecute adulterers, sexual perverts and murderers of preborn babies. How do you plan to prosecute the perpetrators?
Option #1) The US has a system of checks and balances. If the supreme court makes a ruling contrary to God's law, then the president can choose not to enforce that ruling. I will ask the president not to send in troops when Texas prosecutes these criminals.
Option #2) I will uphold the current Constitution and sovereignty of the Republic of Texas and propose withdrawal from the corporation titled "The United States of America."

Interesting, and surely powerful contenders, but they have about the same chance of gaining office as I have. But Harris' dingbattery has already has a major effect on the country that, in any reasonable society, would land her in the poogie for an extended "quiet time." I speak of the 2,000 election in FL, of course, where her office demonstrated a conflict of interest above and beyond the call of Republican ethics.
And, as I recall, it was she that tried to get the state to buy some hogwash called Celestial Drops to aid the orange growers fight a disease. Don't know for certain, but I've read that she had some connection with the Drops before she put it forth as an orange medication.
I recommend that she take a nice, extended vacation at a Refuge for the Terminally Confused. Her Dingbat can be awarded there....
