~9:05pm~ EST 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. --------------------------------------------------
".....where I shared so many wonderful evangelical . . . moments and . . . events..."
She said evangelically. Can you believe this creature??!! So, I guess, just as she was always secretly a Yankees fan, she has always been secretly an evangelical.
And the South is her "spiritual home"??!!
Is anyone really dumb enough to fall for any of this bunk?
Actually, the South probably does have a place in her heart, since that is where she and BJ perfected their techniques for feeding at the public trough and for getting ahead through corruption.
He recounts his passage to orthodox belief and shows how the left is having a slow sea change in its control of much of the ecumenical arms of Christian and Jewish denominations.
Oh, please, she hardly ever attended church in Arkansas and then it was not with Bill. Who does she think she is fooling. She has one of the foulest mouths I have ever heard and a physically violent temper.
'been laughing over this one for over a week -
She's got her talking points lined up early = Her whole statement seemed to be tripping over itself in her mind as she was thinking, seemingly, "Oh, oh, the N.Y. folk are going to get mad if they hear me say Arkansas's my home - oh, no, so will the D.C. folks..." so her tongue gets twisted 6 ways to Sunday -
that fits, so does the truth when coming outta her mouth! "if you want to know the truth" ;o)
But seriously, these folk are all jumping on the Bible Bandwagon: They know not what they are playing with! this will come back and whup them up side the head so sharp, they'll never even know where it comes from...or who to blame, since it wont be a vast right wing conspiracy...it'll come neither from the left nor the right. I'd be getting a hard hat, were I them.
This is a hoax, just in case someone reads it as serious. A joke, a parody. It didn't happen. :)
This article makes me sick, it's like Satan himself trying to deceive you. I hope she does keep up with this charade, most people will see right through it, straight to her black little crusty self centered prune of a heart. She is beneath contempt.
The NR article was a humor piece, I believe. Made up. By Rob Long?
...hitlery's face "bathed in light"...
And he saw Monica's dress bathed in something else.
LOGLOFLHHO (Little ole granny laying on the floor laughing her hiney off)
This goes nicely with Nancy Pelosi's claim to be a conservative Catholic. Perhaps Nancy and Hillary could team up on the Dem ticket next time?
It's just like Kerry hunting deer crawling on his belly with his trusty 12 gauge.
Hot damn, she sure learned how to lie like ole "Whistle Dick".
"I've often thought of becoming a golf club."... from Caddy Shack... in response to the protagonist attempting to patronize the Bishop by saying, "I've often though of joining the priesthood"... or whatever.
What this shows, though... Is that, not only is Hillary clueless regarding Christianity in its various denominations and flavors, but that there is no one near her that knows anything about it, either.
That is to say that there is no one in Hillary's personal or political life that recognizes the absurdity of her statement.
This is a good thing, though, as true evangelicals will immediately detect the wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing.
She will on November 5, 2008..........
Nancy did get the third largest number of votes this time around. Isn't that sickening?
With 56 years in the movement, may I say this is absolutely correct.
