Her Cross to Bear (Hillary's new jewelry)

I'm not sure when this started, but a crucifix cross* appears to have become a regular part of Hillary Clinton's wardrobe.

She wore a gold one July 20, for a speech criticizing advertising directed at children. No picture available.) And she wore the diamond-studded one pictured above to the News last week. A Google Images search doesn't seem to turn up any others, though whenever you think you've noticed something new about Clinton, her aides usually produce rock-solid evidence that it has always been thus.

Clinton's Christianity, while never exactly lapsed, has rarely been forefront; noticing the jewelry doesn't strike me as (quite as) frivolous as reporting on her hairstyle. (He said defensively.)

Is it, perhaps, a sign that her faith may be a bit more in the foreground as 2008 approaches?

*Commenters have politely alerted me that a crucifix is a cross with a representation of that guy -- what's his name again? -- attached.

[smokinleroy]

As one of the comments following the article state, she also keeps a Star of David and a crescent moon on hand for appropriate moments.

[edpc]

She'll ditch it when it no longer seems in "fashion" among focus groups. More Clinton fakery.

[cardinal4]

Her faith is in Saul Alinsky. The cross is in front of the hammer and sickle..

[gridlock]

Show of hands....

Who here doesn't think this is a cynical political manipulation?

[bmwcyle]

Where does she keep the hammer and sickle?

[Excellence]

She will wear whatever she thinks will help get her elected.

[gridlock]

This is Hillary!'s equivalent of the twenty-pound Bible Bubba used to lug to and from church.

[Dilbert San Diego]

She said recently that she "has always been a praying person" or word to that affect. And then Democrats such as her will say they are religious too, and that their religious and spiritual beliefs are that we have to take care of the poor, etc.


I think it's fine if Hillary and other Dems have religious beliefs,but they come across as insincere, as just a political manuver to talk about religion and spiritual matters, when these are the folks who scream the loudest about separating church and state.

[mkjessup]

I'm astounded that the lying b*tch hasn't started dissolving like most vampires do when a Cross gets too close to them.

[gaijin]

It's going to backfire and make real Christians angrier than anythink else she's ever done before.

I HOPE she continues this!

[GunnyHartman]

Here is her necklace after the 2008 election.

[COUNTrecount]

Wearing a cross and let's not forget her cross to bear....The Clinton Legacy.

[TC Rider]

Nah, she's converted to Islam.

Her new Islamic name is 'Seldom Bin Lade'.

[doesnt suffer fools gladly]

She'd wear a swastika if she thought it would help her.

[libs_kma]

"She said recently that she "has always been a praying preying person"

The DBM covered for the Beast again, so I fixed it....

[theDentist]

Another lurch for votes...

[edpc]

>i>Where does she keep the hammer and sickle?

Very close....and likely within....her cold heart.

[Robert A. Cook, PE]

When was the Newsweek cover prominently displayed across the nation with her hands folded in beatific preyer (er, prayer.)

[hoagy62]

I'm surprised she doesn't burst into flame if a Cross touches her.

[ichabod1]

And then Democrats such as her will say they are religious too, and that their religious and spiritual beliefs are that we have to take care of the poor, etc.

And a woman's right to choose!

[USS Alaska]

How's this for a cross?

[blues_guitarist]

Just another harlot doin' her thang!

[hardworking]

Uh oh, her Soros and Muslim backers are not going to be happy. It will disappear soon.

[ripley]

they're trying to equate Christianity with socialism. she wants to be seen as a saviour of the human race (along with her hubby and her other followers on capitol hill) (we should all be thankful that the smartest woman who ever walked the face of the earth is with us....PRAISE BE!!!!) sarcasm off.

[DBrow]

Remember Hillary's Phoenix/Eagle pin from 2000? There was a minor flap about that back then.

Then there's the gloved hand holding the rose, too- DSUSA pin.

Now a cross. Well, at least it's progress!

[Fawn]

HILLARY'S JUNK

[bennyjakobowski]

Where does she keep the hammer and sickle?

She's forced to keep the symbol of her true faith hidden where the sun doesn't shine.

[Bon mots]

Here's the only jewelry I would really like to see Hillaroo wearing:

[Corin Stormhands]

Maybe the garlic wasn't keeping Bill away...

[Bon mots]

Awww, come on. Everybody knows you can't get anywhere near her with a crucifix nor holy water...

[LADY J]

When is she going to borrow Slick's big Bible to carry around?!!

[Bon mots]

I don't believe the story.
You can't get near her with a cross. A Mao suit, yes... but a cross???

[Gaffer]

Yes, and she told a bunch of New Zealanders she was named for Sir Edmund Hillary; her parents were clairvoyants since she was born before Sir Edmund gained notoriety for having climbed Everest AFTER she was born......a complete liar and a fake. Nothing she says can be believed (with the one exception when she said that "we're going to have to take things from you for the common good.")

[pankot]

It takes more than a cross to make a Christian.

[hummingbird]

*Commenters have politely alerted me that a crucifix is a cross with a representation of that guy -- what's his name again? -- attached.

"....that guy...."

Well, I'm speechless....

[Niteranger68]

She's wearing it upside-down.

[popdonnelly]

If she wants to adopt religious fashion, I'd prefer it if she wore a burkha.

[musicman]

Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Al Gore were in an airplane that crashed. They're up in heaven, and God's sitting on the great white throne. God addresses Al first.
"Al, what do you believe in?"

Al replies, "Well, I believe that the combustion engine is evil and that we need to save the world from CFCs and that if any more freon is used, the whole earth will become a greenhouse and we'll all die."

God thinks for a second and says "Okay, I can live with that. Come and sit at my left."

God then addresses Bill. "Bill, what do you believe in?"
Bill replies, "Well, I believe in power to the people. I think people should be able to make their own choices about things and that no one should ever be able to tell someone else what to do. I also believe in feeling people's pain."

God thinks for a second and says "Okay, that sounds good. Come and sit at my right."

God then address Hillary. "Hillary, what do you believe in?"

Hillary replies: "I believe you're in my chair."

[CaptRon]

This thing will adopt any religion, position, value, theory, sports team, book, art, music, hairstyle or fashion that will get her a vote.

[rightinthemiddle]

I hope she doesn't run in '08, cuz I'll give my 401K to keep her from being President.

[backhoe]

Where does she keep the hammer and sickle?

Right here...

[evets]

This lapel pin confirms our contention that Bill and Hillary are practicing Illuminist Witches

[mass55th]

I'm surprised it hasn't burned a mark into her unholy skin.

[Salvation]

Don't believe it at all.

[redstates4ever]

She ought to be wearing a hammer and sickle charm around her neck.
