Hillary Clinton ridiculed her Republican opponents during a Saturday speech before America’s preeminent gay-rights organization, poking fun at Ben Carson’s views on gay marriage and inviting Senator Ted Cruz (R., Texas) to a gay-pride parade.
“Ted Cruz slammed a political opponent for marching in a pride parade. He clearly has no idea what he’s missing,” she told board members and staff of the D.C.-based Human Rights Campaign. “Pride parades are so much fun! I was marching in them when I was First Lady. You should join us sometimes, senator. Come on!”
Clinton spoke in a crowded ballroom at D.C.’s ritzy Mayflower hotel, where gay-rights activists hooted and hollered as she ran through the laundry list of this year’s victories. “It felt like all of America was dancing in the streets this June,” she said, referencing the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down state laws forbidding gay marriage. “And that’s because of you . . . you helped change a lot of minds, including mine. And I personally am very grateful for that.”
Like President Obama, Hillary Clinton’s position on gay marriage “evolved” over the years. She opposed it as First Lady, during her time in the Senate, and as secretary of state. But with public opinion shifting rapidly, she came out in favor of the policy in 2013.
Despite the Supreme Court win, Clinton warned the delegates that “marriage equality” remained under threat. “The next president could get three Supreme Court appointments,” she said. “We could lose the Supreme Court.”
Clinton singled out a couple of other GOP candidates for criticism in addition to Cruz. Though not mentioning Mike Huckabee by name, she excoriated the former Arkansas governor for “celebrating a county clerk who is breaking the law” — a reference to Rowan County, Ky., clerk Kim Davis’s refusal to provide marriage licenses for gay couples — drawing hisses from the audience.
She also made fun of Ben Carson’s views on homosexuality. “Ben Carson says marriage equality caused the fall of the Roman Empire,” she deadpanned, shrugging as the audience laughed and applauded.
Clinton’s Saturday morning speech before gay-rights activists checks an important box for her campaign. The Democratic presidential front-runner had been asked to give the keynote address at the group’s annual dinner later this evening, but refused the invite in order to appear on Saturday Night Live.
#share#That speech will now be delivered by Vice President Joe Biden, who has flirted with challenging Clinton for the Democratic nomination for months. Biden came out for gay marriage in 2012 — one year before Hillary Clinton, and before even President Obama announced his support. Biden’s public endorsement of gay marriage is widely thought to have pushed President Obama to also back the policy a few weeks later.

Ignore her. He probably won’t get the homosexual vote.
Big deal.
If Sen. Cruz has any sense—and I think he does, he wouldn’t go within a mile of the witch…….
But, Cruz is a politician—so they don’t always think like we do.
Dust her off or choose his outfit...
only 2 ways ...
He should extend the invitation to CAIR, and in a very Public Way calling out Hitlery.
Cruz shoudk respond that while he respects the right of people to have parades, that a homosexual pride parade is adults only, that obscenity is part of them, and that he would not take his kids to a gay pride parade.
“No, thanks. I just ate.”
Invite her to address the NRA?
“Sorry Hillary, I’m having my body waxing that day. I’m sure you understand on a personal level”
Indeed.
The Democrats have 1.8% of the vote sewed up. No need to go chasing after what you won’t get.
Has appointment with his paint drying committee ... sorry ... if you had only asked earlier.
The perfect answer to the invite would be, “not if you’re going to be there!” If she’s not, she a homophobe, if she is, then SHE will be Ted’s perfect excuse.
OMG , Hillary is not going Topless
Invite her to the annual March for Life in January.
Ask her to email the invitation.
How should he respond?
“Hillary, you ignorant slut...”
Yeah, bring the whole family.
Send her a dildo.
A Pride event is the best way to demonstrate what scripture says about our sinful nature and about the unrepentant power of sin in the homosexual’s life. The gays and their supporters in leftist churches twist scripture to say that there is no actual mention of homosexuality in the bible. (Yeah, I disagree with them too, but read on.)
But, the bible says a LOT about PRIDE. The gays chose a long time ago to make their agenda be about PRIDE. Unlike every other sin, sexual or otherwise, no one holds PRIDE rallies to hold it up in people’s faces and demand that they celebrate your PRIDE in your sin.
That is the true evil of the homosexual agenda.
Simply say HELL NO......
