VALPARAISO, Ind. - Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton managed to co-opt Mr. Obama’s message of hope and optimism, beginning a speech in Valparaiso, Ind., by talking about how positive and “fundamentally optimistic” Americans are.

“I disagree with Senator Obama’s assertion that people in our country cling to guns and have certain attitudes about immigration or trade simply out of frustration,” she said.

She described herself as a pro-gun churchgoer, recalling that her father taught her how to shoot a gun when she was a young girl and said that her faith “is the faith of my parents and my grandparents.”

She’s also antiabortion and in favor of lowering taxes for the rich.

"She described herself as a pro-gun churchgoer..."

How in the world does she escape being struck by lightning?

She will do any thing or tell any lie in order to seize power !

I was thinking of this pic. Since she’s “ church going”, she may have said, “ Say your prayers, Vince”.

Hillary is finally telling the truth. Evidence suggests that the Clintons prefer that guns be used, so long as the death can me made to look like a suicide or accident. And then they go to church and pray they will never be caught.

Do you suppose she said this in one of her funny accents?

Clinton: “Toll Bridges for sale! Get in on the ground floor of this new economic boom! Have money to pay foe the inflated food prices caused by all the others who got in this market before you! Have a Toll Bridge of your own today! Lots to choose from.”
