A longtime stenographer for the House was led away after approaching a microphone Wednesday night and launching into a by-all-accounts bizarre rant about God, the devil and Freemasons. The woman, identified as Dianne Reidy, made her way to the podium during the vote to end the government shutdown and began yelling, "Praise be to God, the Lord Jesus Christ." As Florida Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen banged the gavel and tried to restore order, Reidy continued. "The greatest deception here is this is not one nation under God," she said. "It never was. … The Constitution would not have been written by Freemasons. They go against God." Reidy was physically pulled away from the podium and has reportedly been sent for a mental evaluation. source
“For the past 2 and 1/2 weeks, the Holy Spirit has been waking me up in the middle of the night and preparing me (through my reluctance and doubt) to deliver a message in the House Chamber,” the stenographer, Dianne Reidy, said in a written statement to Fox News. “That is what I did last night.” source
Dan Reidy, who described himself to the New York Post as a Pentecostal Christian, said “Dianne didn’t know what she was sharing, she didn’t know when, but she just sensed in her spirit.”
He added, “God was preparing her for this vote last night, because this was kind of the culmination of everything.”

Guess someone should inform the dude that Obama and the current administration are a far bigger problem than the Masons.

I think her church brainwashed her and then left her to make the fool of herself that she did. Now she will have no job and a crazy stamp on her forehead.

Doesn't it look like she was acting "controlled". Also if the audio is correct then it sounded similar to what Rand Paul was spouting off at that conference last week.
Is it possible that she's a "Tea Party" plant? Or worse yet is she being controlled by a member of the "Tea Party"?
I know it may seem like I'm going after the "Tea Party" (why do they spell it that way anyways?), but hearing the rant Paul went off on at that meeting, and hearing this woman go off on a very similar topic. I'm left wondering.

I'm sorry, but here is a real possibility of a person being controlled through NLP, and people are saying that is GOD.
So if I understand this correctly GOD can control people and people are climbing over themselves trying to defend that, but the possibility that a person is being manipulated into taking action that is outside of their normal behavior through NLP is "Out There".
Why hasn't anyone looked to see why she broke protocol and did this, right after the bill was confirmed as passing? Hasn't anybody listened to what she said and compared it to what the "Tea Party" has been spouting off lately?
This whole situation smells of something foul, and I'm going to keep digging. Hopefully others will drop the religious rhetoric and throw that energy into finding out why this oddly timed and choreographed play took place in the first place.

What's the point of another one of these threads outside of the opportunity to belittle someone?
Make you feel better about yourself?

Who can really say? I believe we are now in the end times. Every day there is another "record", "never before" or strange, so many we ignore them now.

Well I guess it comes down to those who believe the 'Holy Spirit' was moving through this women or that she was a little off her feed.

Which of Jesus' teachings was she not adhering to, specifically?

How about an open mind that it could be either, then try and examine what happened without a pre concluded idea.
Messengers have been sent to warn in the past according to the bible.
It wouldn't be too far to make a connection that her husband could be involved, but since you brought up her church; "What do we know about the church she attends?"

Does that mean her husband is 'controlled' by or a 'plant' of the Tea Party as well since he supported her bizzaro viewpoints?
Does her church come into question? Anyone else that may think she is accurate? Where does this line of reasoning end?

Considering I do not believe in the Holy Spirit it kind of narrows it down for me.
Messengers have been sent to warn in the past according to the bible.
I also do not take all of the Bible literally, particularly the prophecy aspects.

Her rant that was recorded in the elevator isn't a fully thought out statement, and as far as I know nobody has a recording of what she said on the congressional floor.
If her husband fully supports his wife he's either a good guy that stands by what she does, or is in on the plot.
I'm not saying that "Church" in general has anything to do with this, but rather that somebody may be using that church to manipulate people.
Then there is her talking points, and why do they seem like the ones that the "Tea Party" have adapted lately?

The nation as a whole has proclaimed their belief by swearing in our president on the bible.
