EVANGELICAL HILLARY?: I admit I nearly fell out of my chair laughing when I read the quote attributed to Hillary from an upcoming print edition of the National Review.
HillaryWatch was the first one to bring it to my attention...
Speaking to a "church based" newsletter this week in anticipation of the opening of the Clinton Presidential Library, Mrs. Clinton made the following statements...
"I always take time to worship God in as evangelical a way as is feasible, given time and location constraints. As you know, I consider myself an evangelical Christian, really a Christian conservative, if you want to know the truth, so it's nice to be 'home' again in the South, which I really consider my quote-unquote home even though I live in New York most of the time. Well, Washington, D.C., most of the time, actually, but if I'm not there I'm in New York, of course, but always thinking about being here, in the South, my spiritual home, where I shared so many wonderful evangelical . . . moments and . . . events."
I went to one of the leading "evangelical" schools in the nation. I can quite assuredly verify for you that there is no "EVANGELICAL WAY" of worshiping. Evangelicals are as diverse as the rest of the population.
What unifies them - and identifies them AS evangelicals - is not how they worship. It is what they believe.
And this is yet another glaring example of how liberals believe that the reason they lost in 2004 was because they did not trick the population into thinking that the political left "believes" as well.
The "Values Voters" that participated in the election this year - don't have some ethereal mystical type of belief system. They actually DO BELIEVE in certain absolutes and they organize their lives around the beliefs they hold.
Caring for the poor - is not a "Values Voters" issue - liberals and conservatives alike believe that we need to help the poor. The difference in the two is HOW to go about doing it.
The "Values Voters" this year actually hold specific conviction about morality - and the left has been left hanging clueless since as to figure out how to respond to people of strong conviction.
So in that reality you will continue to see Hillary and others say silly things like how they LOVE to worship "in as much of an evangelical way as is feasible"...
In fact they give blatant pandering a bad name.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This article appears in the November 29, 2004, issue of National Review.
Church Newsletters From All Over
From "Light the Lamp!": The monthly newsletter of the Holy Flame Pentecostal Church of Little Rock, Ark.
We welcome back to the area Senator Hillary Clinton (D., N.Y.), who has been spending so much time here in Little Rock lately that she's practically joined the church choir! "I'm here spending time at my husband's library," she told the Lamp when we caught up with her after a Sunday camp meeting, "and of course, I always take time to worship God in as evangelical a way as is feasible, given time and location constraints. As you know, I consider myself an evangelical Christian, really a Christian conservative, if you want to know the truth, so it's nice to be 'home' again in the South, which I really consider my quote-unquote home even though I live in New York most of the time. Well, Washington, D.C., most of the time, actually, but if I'm not there I'm in New York, of course, but always thinking about being here, in the South, my spiritual home, where I shared so many wonderful evangelical . . . moments and . . . events. Can you read that back to me?"The "Light the Lamp!" staff would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that Christ loves all of us equally, and that God's house is open to all, even to senators from New York, so whoever is muttering stuff and saying mean things while pretending to cough can just quit it right now.
Roger that. Sometimes this medium can inhibit clear understanding. Best FReegards & God bless right back at ya.
Does anyone believe a word out of the grifter's mouth?
""I always take time to worship God in as evangelical a way as is feasible, given time and location constraints.

Carpetbagger again.
Another re-invention, Hitliary? Out of my sight, I never knew you.
"look into my eyes, you'll see who I am
My name is Lucifer, please take my hand".
N.I.B., Black Sabbath
And so it begins...the 'extreme makeover' of Hillary into a 'moral values' 'Christian conservative' candidate so she can try to fool all those red staters....grrrrr!
This is what she'll be doing for the next four years! This is her game plan for 2008........Beware America!
My husband is convinced she is The Antichrist.
Yeah, and what's disgustingly sad is there are plenty of Kool Aid drinkers out there who are gonna swallow her con hook, line and sinker. Man, I'm not looking forward to 2008!
Yeah, between her and Billy they are the two headed beast!
Is this from "the Onion"....if that statment is true than it is more queer than a football bat.
INTREP - Hillary

(Please FReepmail if you want on, or off, this list. I certainly have no desire to increase anyone’s stress-level. Thanks!!!)
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Yup, her memories of her church-going childhood match Kenny Chesney's: "I remember the smell of Sunday chicken after church." NOT!
I suppose Satan could put "Former Assistant to the Lord" on his resume. I'm not sure it would gain him much at this point.
Hillary, you're a joke.
Didn't Lucifer quote the Bible as well in his tempting of the Christ?
She is "The Bide of Satan".
Carolyn
You are correct. This was identified last week as a joke and a hoax.
Oh well, some rumors never die.
