GOP Christian Senate candidate demonstrates singing and speaking in tongues




see: http://www.addictinginfo.org/2014/01/23/underdog-gop-candidate-sings-speaks-tongues-self-posted-video-video/

A Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate in Alaska has just discovered a unique way of capturing attention in a race where she’s the clear underdog — meaning, a compete unknown. She posted a video of herself speaking, or singing, in tongues to a hapless women named Suzie in a steam room.

The performance does raise a question, however, of who it is that’s actually in the grips of Satan. As Alaskan blogger Amanda Coyne noted in an article drawing attention to the video, the gift of tongues is thought to be “highly sacred and it is considered forbidden to be used as publicity.” Has Satan scored one by getting Tonn to post the video on her Facebook page? Oh, the wily devil! Seducing Republicans!

Another car crazy.

I love this You tube response as well;

"Holy-ga-da-mia what the hell is she on?"

Hey, they're free to worship as they see fit, but I'm under no obligation to pretend that I believe it's anything more than silly gobbledygook.

I know it works from experience, and no, I'm not going to reveal my dealer.

Though I do like the foggy, condensation streaked video. It lends a strangely erotic quality to her otherwise regrettable yodeling.

She has a Google+ page with the tagline "Marching towards the Presidency of the United States of America! A candidate for Alaska US Senator 2014! Social and fiscal conservative republican."

She says that she had a dream that America will collapse and apparently she wants to lead the collapsed nation.

I don't think that we have to worry about this loon being elected, although Palin did somehow get elected Governor.

I notice the self-satisfied smirk of sanctity on her face at the end there. I've seen that look before. The fundagelical "I am righteous and holy and special" look.

And her speaking voice too…oh god, she sounds like she's talking to a class of kindergarteners. which is probably exactly how she sees all us "unsaved". Except when she's hating on us cuz gawwd tells her to, it's right there in the Buybull.
