Sharron Elaine Angle (born July 26, 1949) is a U.S. politician who served as a Republican member of the Nevada Assembly from 1999 to 2007. She is the 2010 Republican nominee for the United States Senate seat in Nevada held by the current Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid.

FIRSTLY ONE MUST UNDERSTAND THAT SHARRON ANGLE IS AS NUTTY AS A FRUITCAKE. ...then everything you read here will make perfect sense.

Personal life

Angle was born Sharron Elaine Ott in Klamath Falls, Oregon, and moved to Reno, Nevada, when she was three years old.[5] Her father is a Navy veteran of World War II and served in the Navy Reserve during the Korean War. She attended public schools in Reno and later obtained a bachelor of fine arts from the University of Nevada.[5] During her senior year of college in 1970, she married Theodore ("Ted") Angle, who worked for the Federal government's B.L.M. as a manager.[6][7] Ted and Sharron Angle had two children and, as of October 2010, ten grandchildren. [citation needed]

After graduating, Angle, a Southern Baptist,[8][9][10] worked as a substitute teacher for 25 years, ran a small Christian school for two years, and taught art for five years as a lecturer at Western Nevada Community College in Elko.[5]

At a speech on October 18, 2010, Angle said, "I've been called the first Asian legislator in our Nevada State Assembly."[11][12] Explaining this claim to a reporter from Politico.com, "Angle spokesman Jarrod Agen ... said that 'when she was in the Legislature, a reporter mistakenly referred to Sharron as being of Asian descent. Again, making the point to the students that you can't judge people based on first glance.'" [13]

Political career

Nevada Assembly

In 1998, Angle won election to the State Assembly,[5] and served in the Assembly until 2005. During her time in the 42-member assembly, she voted "no" so frequently on matters of wide consensus that votes were often called as "41-to-Angle".[14]

In 2003, she hired John Eastman of The Claremont Institute to fight the Supreme Court decision when then Governor Kenny Guinn sued the Legislature to nullify the state constitution and allow a simple majority of the legislature to pass an $836 million tax increase in Angle v Guinn.[15] Angle used her personal funds to defend the state constitution's two-thirds vote requirement to raise taxes and, with Eastman, took the case to Federal District Court in Nevada, which referred it to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and finally to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Legislature subsequently passed the $836 million tax increase by a two-thirds vote.[16] Angle ultimately prevailed in the suit; in 2006, the state supreme court reversed its 2003 decision and restored the Nevada Constitution's two-thirds vote provision.[17]

In 2003, she attempted to arrange a trip to an Ensenada, Baja California, prison to assess a drug treatment program implemented there. She also arranged to visit a prison in New Mexico to assess the "Second Chance Program", which licensed its materials from Criminon, a program for rehabilitating prisoners using methods developed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard."[18][19][20] Angle sponsored legislation aimed at placing this program in certain women's prisons in Nevada.[20]

In 2005, she was the sole voter against a bill that split the property tax abatement by applying a 3% rate to residential and 8% rate to commercial property.[21] She states that she voted no because the Nevada Constitution states that taxation must be uniform and equal and so could not vote against her oath of office to which she swore to "uphold and defend the Constitution."[14]

2006 run for U.S. Congress

Main article: Nevada's 2nd congressional district election, 2006

On August 15, 2006 Angle narrowly lost the primary for U.S. Congress in Nevada's 2nd congressional district which was vacated by Rep. Jim Gibbons. Nevada Secretary of State Dean Heller received 24,781 votes to Angle's 24,353. Gibbons' wife Dawn, a former State Assemblywoman herself, finished with 17,328 votes.[22] On August 25, Angle called for a new primary election on the grounds that some poll workers showed up late for work, or didn't show up at all, in Washoe County, where she was the strongest.[23] On September 1, the Carson District Judge denied her appeal for a new election.

2010 run for U.S. Senate

Main article: United States Senate election in Nevada, 2010

On April 15, 2010, she received an endorsement for the U.S. Senate race from the Tea Party Express at a rally in the nation's capital.[24] The next day, she received an endorsement from conservative talk radio personality Mark Levin.[25] She has been endorsed by several conservative individuals and organizations, including the Club for Growth,[26] the Tea Party Express,[27] Joe the Plumber,[28] Singer Pat Boone,[29] and Phyllis Schlafly of the Eagle Forum.[30]

Wikinews has related news:

Some Republicans, however, have opposed her candidacy. Immediately after the primary, the Republican mayor of Reno, Bob Cashell, who had backed Lowden in the Republican primary, endorsed Reid for the general election, calling Angle an "ultra-right winger".[31][32] Other prominent Republicans opposing her include Sig Rogich, a former campaign staffer for Ronald Reagan and assistant to President George H. W. Bush;[31] Geno Martini, the Republican mayor of Sparks;[33] Republican State Senator and Minority Leader William Raggio;[34][35] Dema Guinn, the widow of the late Republican Governor of Nevada Kenny Guinn;[36] and former Lieutenant Governor Sue Wagner.[37]

The Washington Post reported on May 28 that Angle was in a "statistical dead heat" with her opponent, Sue Lowden, citing a poll conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research Inc.[38] Using the same poll data, the Las Vegas Review-Journal speculated that Lowden would win 42 percent of the vote over Reid's 39 percent, and that Reid would win 42 percent of the vote over Angle's 39 percent with a margin of error "plus or minus 4 percentage points".[39][40] On June 6, the Las Vegas Review Journal reported that according to a new Mason-Dixon poll, Angle had "shot into a clear lead in the U.S. Senate Republican Primary" and predicted that she would win the nomination with 32% of the vote and would defeat Harry Reid 44% to 41%.[41][42][43]

Angle went on to win the Republican nomination.[44] A June 9, 2010, Rasmussen Reports post-primary poll showed her leading incumbent Senator Harry Reid by a margin of 50% to 39%.[45] A July 2010 poll showed Reid leading Angle by 7 points.[46] The change of margin, 18% in less than a month, is the largest in Senate elections history.[46]

On October 3rd Nevada's largest newspaper Las Vegas Review-Journal endorsed Republican Sharron Angle's bid for U.S. Senate against Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.[47]

In October 2010, Nevada Tea Party candidate Scott Ashjian released a tape to the media of a recorded conversation he had with Sharron Angle where she asked him to drop out of the race. In the tape, Angle speaks candidly about her campaign and says that she cannot defeat Reid with Ashjian on the ballot.[48][49]

One of Angle's campaign ads aired on television late in her campaign entitled "The Wave" has been cited as racist and despicable by Sen. Robert Menendez.[50]

Avoidance of the press and disputes with them

Angle has been criticized for largely avoiding answering questions from the local press [51] and also the national press [52] In September, the Las Vegas Review-Journal sued her for copyright infringement after she allegedly posted entire articles from the publication on her campaign website.[53]

Scientology issue

During the primary campaign, Lowden took out a political ad criticizing Angle's alleged associations with Scientology[54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61] and claiming Angle "pushed a bill favored by the Church of Scientology". Although the Las Vegas Review-Journal said that "no bill was ever introduced",[9] the Las Vegas Sun noted that Angle's website credited her with a successful bill against psychotropic drugs in schools, a position also supported by Scientologists, and that she had accompanied celebrity Scientologists Jenna Elfman and Kelly Preston to promote the bill in the U.S. Senate.[62] Angle herself promoted a similar bill in the Nevada Assembly, but was not successful.[62]

During a KVBC-hosted debate on Face to Face with Jon Ralston, Angle was asked by Ralston "about recent whispers that an Angle legislative proposal to explore a program of massages and sweat-boxes for Nevada prisons was a strange foray into Scientology",[63] a reference to her 2003 proposal to study the program implemented in Mexico and New Mexico. Angle responded, "This program had a recidivism rate of less than 10 percent. They aren’t massages. ... it was more of a karate chop. The sauna was a sweat box. When you’re in there with 30 guys, it’s not exactly a sauna."[63]

Angle has repeatedly "refuted the rumor that she’s a Scientologist",[64] stating that the controversy had been "largely distorted".[65] Regarding these claims relating to Scientology, Angle told the Las Vegas Review-Journal, "The way to ruin a conservative is to pass them off as part of the radical fringe. They always try to marginalize me."[9]

Dearborn, Michigan controversy

In September 2010, Angle told a group of Tea Party supporters that "Sharia law" had taken over the cities of Dearborn, Michigan and Frankford, Texas and that these locations represented a "militant terrorist situation". These comments were scrutinized, as Frankford, Texas was annexed by Dallas in 1975 and now consists only of a small church and cemetery. Dearborn mayor Jack O'Reilly criticized Angle as well, saying that “There’s no sharia law in Dearborn, Mich. … It isn’t even talked about in Dearborn”, that Angle's claims were dishonest, and that “Muslims have been practicing their faith in our community for almost 90 years without incident or conflict. To suggest that they have taken over ignores the fact that Dearborn hosts seven mosques and 60 Christian churches.”[66]

Positions

Education

Angle believes that the U.S. Department of Education should be eliminated, citing that the local approach yields the best academic results ("[The] best education is the education that is controlled closest to the local level as possible.")[67][68] Angle also holds that the Department of Education is "unconstitutional" and should not be involved in dictating educational standards from Washington, D.C.[69]

United Nations

Angle believes that the U.S. should withdraw from the United Nations, saying it is a bastion of liberal ideology and "the umpire on fraudulent science such as global warming."[70]

Social policy

Angle supports the Federal Marriage Amendment to ban same-sex marriage.[67] She believes that households in which only one spouse works outside the home is the best way to raise a family.[71] Angle is pro-life and opposes abortion, including in cases of rape or incest.[72] In a June 2010 radio interview, broadcast statewide in Nevada, Angle stated that she had counseled young girls in "very at risk, difficult pregnancies" to consider other alternatives, by which they had been able to make "a lemon situation into lemonade".[73][74]

Separation of church and state

Angle does not believe that the United States Constitution mandates the separation of church and state.[75][76]

Health care/abortion

Angle favors the privatization of Medicare.[77] She voted against fluoridating drinking water.[78][79]

Angle opposes abortion, even in cases of rape and incest, saying that it is against God's 'Plan'.[80] In 1999, the Associated Press reported that Angle had proposed a bill that "would have required doctors to inform women seeking abortions about a controversial theory linking an increased risk of breast cancer with abortion".[81] When she introduced the legislation again in 2001, the Las Vegas Review-Journal wrote that critics responded by saying the alleged link was not supported by scientific evidence, calling the bill a "scare tactic".[82]

During the 2010 campaign, Angle told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that, as a state legislator, she had sponsored a bill to remove the requirement that health insurers cover mammograms and colonoscopies.[83] In a debate among the Republican candidates, she repeated her support for lifting "mandates" on insurance companies.[83] When Reid criticized this position, however, Angle accused him of making "a blatantly false claim that I tried to repeal a law that makes insurance companies cover mammograms."[84]

Social Security

Angle has said that the Social Security system should be "transitioned out".[85] In May 2010, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that Angle had stated in a radio interview on KNPR that "[her] grandfather wouldn't even take his Social Security check because he said he was not up for welfare". The following month a Harry Reid television advertisement stated that "Sharron Angle would end Medicare and Social Security. This is crazy." Angle has spoken favorably of the program in Chile, where current beneficiaries of the public retirement system were allowed to continue but all others were compelled to pay into a private system instead.[86]

Financial reform

Angle favors a comprehensive audit of the Federal Reserve, eliminating the complete Internal Revenue Service code and abolishing Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.[87]

Drugs

Angle has stated that she opposes legalizing marijuana and has stated that she feels the same about alcohol.[88] When her spokesman, Jerry Stacy, was asked to clarify Angle's statement he responded that she doesn’t want to bring back Prohibition, saying “Sharron doesn’t want to make alcohol illegal,” and noting that she has never introduced legislation along those lines, and even voted against taxes on alcohol. “Alcohol is a legal substance, and adults can choose to imbibe,” Stacy said.[89]

Global warming

Angle does not believe in anthropogenic or man-made global warming.[70] "I'm a clean-air proponent," she stated. "I don't, however, buy into the whole man-caused global warming, man-caused climate change mantra of the left. I believe that there's not sound science to back that up."[70]

Energy policy

Main article: Energy policy of the United States

As a long-term policy, Angle believes America must expand its own domestic energy supplies. She would legislate to repeal regulations that prohibit offshore drilling, drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and development of American-owned petroleum resources. In the Nevada State Legislature, she led efforts to reduce Nevada's high gas tax, which was the second highest in the nation. She would also have supported the three coal-fired plants in Ely.[67]

After President Barack Obama secured agreement by BP to commit $20 billion to compensate victims of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Angle denounced the arrangement, calling it a "slush fund".[90] When she was criticized for her comment, however, she retracted the term "slush fund" and said that BP should pay for the consequences of the spill.[91]

Second Amendment and rights to form a militia

Angle has said, "What is a little bit disconcerting and concerning is the inability for sporting goods stores to keep ammunition in stock ... That tells me the nation is arming. What are they arming for if it isn't that they are so distrustful of their government? They're afraid they'll have to fight for their liberty in more Second Amendment kinds of ways?" and "That's why I look at this as almost an imperative. If we don't win at the ballot box, what will be the next step?"[92] Asked to comment on the issue, her spokesman Jerry Stacy said via email: "Sharron Angle does not advocate a revolution. Her goal is to go to Washington with other like-minded elected officials who understand the proper role of the federal government as already defined by our Constitution."[93]

Canadian ambassador seeks terror border retraction

The Canadian ambassador to the United States Gary Doer has asked Angle to retract her baseless assertion that the 9/11 hijackers entered the United States through Canada.[94] Angle claims that the U.S.-Canada border is the "most porous border we have" and "what we know is our northern border is where the terrorists came through". U.S. law enforcement have long determined that none of the hijackers entered the U.S. from Canada, but directly from third countries with visas issued by the United States.[95]
