DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) Hillary Rodham Clinton says much of the nation's political debate lacks the compassion for the poor she learned in Sunday school.
At a rally in Iowa, the Democratic presidential hopeful portrayed herself as a champion for struggling Americans, in contrast to the alleged "mean spiritedness" of others.
Without naming names, Clinton asked, "Did they not go and hear the same lessons I did in Sunday school? Did they not sing the same hymns?" She said those who lack compassion make her wonder, "Did they never hear, 'there but for the grace of God go I?'"

Why doesn’t she give the US poor some of that foreign money she and her family have been scooping up from the world’s worst despots who exploit the poor in their countries?
Hillary spends more on her summer rentals in the Hamptons than she donates to the poor
And then there is the ratio of charity spending to income from that miserable money laundering Clinton Foundation

I wonder if Hitlery is the type of person Jesus was talking about when He said not everyone who says “Lord, Lord” will get into Heaven.
This is great. I look forward to more Biblical references in this campaign.

Hillaryous Rotten Criminal ALERT!
Supporting full birth abortions seems kind of mean spirited. But that’s just me.
This is a new riff, and we can probably expect more of this. This is a tactic right out of the 0bama playbook. This is coming out with a statement that is so outrageously beyond any kind of reasonable assessment that it’s stunning, for want of a better word. This is an indication that she will be breaking new ground in the art of the big lie. And as usual, we can count on her and hers being given a pass.
Morning Joe ran a clip of reporter Mark Halperin seated with dedicated Dem voters asking them to name a single accomplishment of Hillary in the State Department.
The silence was deafening. Not one could name a single accomplishment.
The all said they didn't care about that or about the Clinton corruption. They said that they support Hillary because the Clinton's always beat Republicans at everything, and because Hillary is a strong woman.
==========================================
MONA CHAREN: Hillary is deploying the "They Hate You" strategy that has worked so well for Democrats for decades. Policy is almost irrelevant; the point is to convince key groups to turn out in large numbers for Democrats because they've been persuaded that Republicans are haters.
What would Jesus have said about liberal generosity? My guess: He would not have been impressed.
And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites. And the last person, a liberal, taking money by force from each of his neighbors, gave generously with wealth taken from rich and poor alike.
As I understand scripture, Jesus would have seen the liberal, giving not from his own abundance but from the property of others, as the lowest of all. I see no virtue at all in charity using other people's money, and I see it as completely unchristian. I suspect that is the purpose of government welfare - to separate Christians from active participation in charity and to separate the community as much as possible from the obvious benefits of a healthy and active church.
The murdered babies blood cries out as they ask Hillary where is her care for them.
A sign of desperation?
It’s a stinkbait challenge to see who will answer it; it’ll go ignored but it would be interesting to see Huckabee take it apart and turn it around on Cankles.
She didn’t name names...but spoke of her rivals. OK, Bernie Sanders is one of her rivals. He is Jewish, and the Hildabeast includes him in the category of those who lack compassion because they didn’t learn it at Sunday School. I think that we may have an issue here.
Pssssst, Hillary. It isn’t compassion when you’re spending other people’s money. It’s theft. And you ain’t Robin Hood.
47% of america doesn’t pay taxes.... someone is not living a moral life......
hearing a sermon and practicing what was preached are two different things and OPEN ENDED QUESTIONS DO NOT STATE WHAT THE PERSON’S BELIEFS ARE .... THEY ARE MERELY QUESTIONS.
HILARY GOES THROUGH THE motions OF DOING THINGS BUT IN FACT aside from killing 4 americans in benghazi and restarting the cold war.... has done NOTHING and then throw in all the other scandals... THAT IS WHAT SHE IS GOOD AT ...SCANDAL

This is pretty funny. Its so clunky and awkward. Hillary has been running around for the past couple months talking about how she reads the bible and goes to Sunday school. Now she’s talking about Christian compassion. If she does it in the fake, exaggerated Southern accent, especially with the black linguistic features added in, I think I’d watch her speeches for the pure comedy value.
Gee she seems to have missed “thou shall not steal” and “thou shall not bear false witness” not to mention “thou shall not covet they neighbor’s goods (income redistribution)” or with Bill “thou shall not commit adultery”.
When Marvin Olasky became a Christian he became deeply concerned with the issue of Christian compassion. He wrote a book about it, entitled The Tragedy of American Compassion. He learned that compassion means suffering with. Hillary nor anyone else, save only God, can have compassion on everyone - because that would mean paying attention to them, and their needs and trials, individually.That is what makes socialist compassion a joke. It is one size fits all on steroids. Welfare rights claims that money is the cure-all panacea for everyone. The irony is that we learn that among lottery winners it is not rare for them to turn up broke as ever, within a few years of winning millions. Money is a mediating factor in society. Society is not, and must not be, coextensive with government. Because that would mean everything is either mandatory or illegal. It is the very definition of tyranny.
In society, people serve each other, and themselves, according to their own motivations. Most serve most others for money - it obviates the need for a great deal of otherwise necessary knowledge and trust. Your dollar in your wallet represents, if you didnt steal it, either a benefit you did for someone else or love someone else had for you. Either way, if I do something for you or give you something which you are willing to give me the dollar for, I dont have to know what you did, or what the person to gave you out of love did, to earn it from someone else. Either way, I have recompensed some previous benevolence to another member of society, and I have that satisfaction as well as the dollar.
Now in steps Hillary Clinton, declaring that I have won lifes lottery and seizing the dollar from me to aggrandize herself by giving it to poor Joe. I still have the satisfaction of having benefited you, and that is what Hillary cannot give Joe. And it may be that Joe needs that far more than he needs the dollar - but is prevented from knowing that by Hillarys gift of my dollar.
I, Pencil is an article written in 1958 by Leonard E. Read which demonstrates that far-flung reaches of society are involved, ultimately, in making something as simple as a pencil. Most of that involvement is mediated by money, so the precise information outlined in I, Pencil need not be accounted for in any other way than that shorthand, the bottom line. As Thomas Paine put it, society is produced by our wants - and money is a critical intermediary in the process. But even though it is conventional to use the dollar printed by the US government for that purpose, money existed long before the dollar - or even the paper currency generally - ever did.
Government, Paine pointed out, "is produced . . . by our wickedness. It promotes . . . our happiness . . . NEGATIVELY by restraining our vices. A government which presumes to provide - and first, to define - "our wants can only be tyrannical.
Stealing from the rich right to buy votes is such a Christian value.
