In a bid to win over evangelicals for her anticipated 2016 Presidential campaign, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton compared Democratic support for welfare programs to Jesus’ concern for the poor.
“How can those familiar with the story of the loaves and fishes not see the parallels with current Democratic efforts to feed the poor?” Clinton asked. “How is Jesus’ feeding the multitude with a handful of bread and fish not emulated by the EBT card?”
“I’m not saying that Democrats have the magical powers of God,” Clinton said. “But from the perspective of the EBT beneficiaries it must certainly appear magical. Through no toil of their own they and their families are fed. All they are asked to do is cast a ballot for Democrats to have the power to redistribute funds unneeded by those who already have more than enough. Is this not truly indistinguishable from a miracle?”
In related news, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported this week that in 20% of American families no one has a paid job. US Secretary of Labor Thomas Perez called the news encouraging, “We still have a long way to go, but the fact that one in five households have been liberated from wage slavery is real progress.”

Well so does the devil.
Also the enemy can quote scripture.
Just amazing. Jesus would not have been happy that she defended her rapist husband and personally destroyed the lives of anyone who got in the way of her quest to be the most powerful woman in history.
Burn Bitch Burn !
The flames of Hell are to good for you.
It’s not the food that mattered.
It’s getting harder and harder to tell satire from truth. The libs are so demented!!
Yeah, we need some beast like Hillary to tell us about Jesus. Best that she just shut up.
Please folks, this is satire. It even says so in the heading.
You said...
“Please folks, this is satire. It even says so in the heading”
I get a chuckle out of these Semi news/ semi satire articles.
Our "poor" live in luxury compared to the rest of Earth's poor.
(JMO - I have no link to back up my opinion)
The thing that makes comedy funny is that it’s spot on with the truth.
Satans MO is kill, steal and destroy. Sounds like the dems runaway government.
Yes they are feeding the poor. The poor of motivation, the poor of ambition, the poor afflicted with laziness.
The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice....

Joh_12:8 For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.
I would guess this is only 10% satire.
Her gift of gab fails truth wins.
Jesus did not hand out loaves and fishes. I am certain it was Doritos, Pop Tarts, and litres of Pepsi.
