Her Cross to Bear (NY State's Junior Senator now sports religious jewelry)

I'm not sure when this started, but a crucifix cross* appears to have become a regular part of Hillary Clinton's wardrobe.

She wore a gold one July 20, for a speech criticizing advertising directed at children. No picture available.) And she wore the diamond-studded one pictured above to the News last week. A Google Images search doesn't seem to turn up any others, though whenever you think you've noticed something new about Clinton, her aides usually produce rock-solid evidence that it has always been thus.

Clinton's Christianity, while never exactly lapsed, has rarely been forefront; noticing the jewelry doesn't strike me as (quite as) frivolous as reporting on her hairstyle. (He said defensively.)

Is it, perhaps, a sign that her faith may be a bit more in the foreground as 2008 approaches?

*Commenters have politely alerted me that a crucifix is a cross with a representation of that guy -- what's his name again? -- attached.

UPDATE: She's also wearing a cross in this lovely 2001 shot, and several others over the years.

That was TOTALLY uncalled for!

If they said that about Muhammad, his psychotic devotees would burn down New York City.

Hellery will wear a burka if it will get her the Muslim vote...and in her case, that would be a real improvement! What a brass-plated phony!

Good thing she has no image in a mirror, she'd have to recoil in fear if her eyes actually looked upon the Cross.

Probably something like working in a nuclear lab for whatever poor staffer has to put that on her neck

She's trying to appeal to the "religious right".

For some she may be appealing. For others she is VERY transparent. I wouldn't vote her in for a dog catcher.

EVERYTHING this bitch does is to deceive.....

She, her party and supporters have focused on the destruction of America.

Her pretty pink pant suit, makeup, jewelery, and draft dodging, white trash, impeached, rapist husband with his tiny bend dick won't change that....

Semper Fi

You would have to shave her scalp to find the three 6's.
