Seizing Moment, Hillary Totes Bible to Gun Range by Scott Ott for ScrappleFace · No Comments
(2008-04-13) — Sensing an opportunity to portray Sen. Barack Obama as elitist and out of touch after his remarks about “bitter” rural Americans who cling to guns, God and xenophobia, Sen. Hillary Clinton stopped after church today at an indoor gun range, where she fired roughly 300 rounds through a handgun she said she carries concealed everywhere she goes.
Her lower lip bulging from a dip of Skoal, Sen. Clinton put her Bible in her handbag, and drew out her own Para Ordnance Warthog .45 caliber pistol.
As reporters looked on, the Democrat presidential candidate emptied one 10-round magazine after another, with fair accuracy, at a human silhouette target.
“Small town folk like us,” said Sen. Clinton, “don’t cling to God or guns because we’re bitter about the economy, as my opponent suggests. We believe in God because he’s real, and we keep and bear arms as the best insurance against tyrants who would strip our freedoms if they didn’t fear our collective power.”
As for the economy, the candidate said, small-town people haven’t been sitting on their hands since the steel and textile mills closed 25 years ago.
“We’re Americans,” she said, “We’re not a bunch of cry babies. Things change. We deal with it. We suck it up, learn a new skill, and do something else to earn the money we need to buy stuff, you know, like Bibles and bullets.”
More lies and Bullsh!t from the usual source...the clintons. They truly must be stupid if hey think that Americans are stupid enough to believe their crap !!! Pitiful !!!
Why don’t you believe the article?
Hillary has every right to fire off 300 rounds of .45 on an afternoon at the range is she desires. The 2A applies to Democrats as well.
Satire, of course. Would that there were a candidate with that kind of charm and grasp of the Constitution - I’d vote for her (or him).
The funniest thing about Scrappleface articles is that some indignant freepers take them seriously.
You can always tell when the clintons are lying...their lips are moving.
Mrs. Billy J. Clinton, of Little Rock, Scranton, and New York, is a dead shot with rifle and pistol. The only quibble I have with this otherwise excellent story is the reporter's characterization of "average" results for Hillary's shooting. (Did you know she was named after the famous mountain climber from New Zealand, Sir Edmund Hillary?)
If he had looked closer, he would have seen that after 10 magazines of hot, high-power handloaded .45 wadcutters, her results were only "average" with her "weak" hand. Righty, she's just as much a "killer" as her great grandmother, Annie Oakley.
One reason I love these type of threads!
Are you being sarcastic?
Sen. Clinton put her Bible in her handbag, and drew out her own Para Ordnance Warthog .45 caliber pistol.
It’s long been said that pets resemble their owners.
Maybe it’s fitting that Hillary would choose a pistol named the Warthog.
This thread needs more cowbell.
You think?
Which she jokingly referred to as "My Foster child."
Up to the Bibles and bullets part, this (non)quote really, actually, describes Americans... or, at least, Americans before the “liberals” convinced most to think they’re victims.
You are absolutely correct. Scrappleface always throws in a zinger like “bullets and bibles” just show how ridiculous liberal thinking is!
HilLIARy: “I may have lied about sniperfire, norman hsu, cattle futures, monica lewinsky, juantia broderick, rose law firm billing records, ron brown, vince foster, craig livingstone, whitewater, getting fired from nixon impeachment comittee, and the health care task force records... but I never called PA residents BITTER!
yikes! with those eyes she might bave been not guilty 100 pounds ago...
