(Hillary)Clinton Ducks Answer on Whether Homosexualty is ‘Immoral’
The New York Times ^ | March 14, 2007 | Patrick Healy

Posted on 03/14/2007 5:08:07 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Asked if she believed homosexuality was immoral, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton declined to answer the question in a television interview this morning and said it was for “others to conclude.” General Peter Pace, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in a recent interview that he personally believed homosexuality was immoral and that this view was a factor in his opposition to gays serving openly in the military. Mrs. Clinton, a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, supports allowing gays to serve, which would amount to a change in her husband’s “don’t ask don’t tell” policy. She has also been aggressively courting gay voters and groups in recent weeks. Some gay groups have been critical of Mrs. Clinton’s refusal to support gay marriage, however, though she does support civil unions.

They need to ask her is she is gay or has she ever been with a woman. I believe the answer would be amazing. She looks like a bull anyway.

She doesn't want to piss off all her girlfriends that shared the hot tub up at Camp David with her.

Hmmmm.... so the President Bush and Hillary have the same views on this issue...

said it was for “others to conclude.

So if I conclude it's immoral, will she abide by my conclusion?

For others to conclude? Hillary, your the one running for the top job. We want to know what you conclude!

The Methodist Church leadership especially on the east and west coasts are very very liberal. You'd lose your job as a minister on those coasts if you came out strongly against homosexuality. There was even consideration a few years ago about splitting off from the Methodist Church as a whole over this issue. Lots of the ministers, district superintendents and bishops wanted to ordain gays and do same sex marriages. The Methodist Church in the rest of the country and most of the rest of the world was against it. The rest wanted to keep or strengthen the Methodists position on homosexuality which is All people are persons of sacred worth but the practice of homosexuality is incompatible with Christianity and Methodism in particular. Those on the west coast decided to remain connected and be a "reconciling" congregation what ever the heck that means.

Even for Hilary that is a cowardly answer.

Hillary says, "It's for others to conclude".

But watch out if you speak of your own conclusions!!

I don't see why it should be a factor in opposing homosexuality within the military. The military is not a social club. Adultery, fornication, and homosexuality within the ranks should be prohibited not because they are immoral (though they are), but rather because they interfere with the effectiveness of the military as a fighting force.

I thought her stock answer to the many questions she won't answer is 'you'll have to ask my campaign'.

What a bozo she is, and it is getting harder for her 'staff' to hide it.

Back when I was married we attended her Church (UMC) rather than my denomination (Lutheran). Our first pastor was a VERY liberal man (supported the Sandanistas, friend of Senator Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), anti-death penalty, etc...) but at least he was somewhat of a human being...when he left to run a social services agency, we received a female pastor from the Bishop. Oh, my Lord! EVERY sermon for the next year was about the gay lifestyle and AIDs! I'm not exaggerating! Finally, the congregation had had enough and asked the Bishop to replace her.

it will be interesting
she will (or could) be asked literally thousands of questions that will doom her candidacy. How she navigates these potential land mines will make the average contortionist green with envy.
