SAINT HILLARY

WASHINGTON — Long before her beliefs would be tested in the most wrenching of ways as first lady, Hillary Rodham Clinton taught an adult Sunday school class on the importance of forgiveness. It is a lesson, she says, that she has harked back to often.
“We all have things that oftentimes we’re upset about, or ashamed of, or feel guilty over, and so many people carry these enormous burdens around,” Mrs. Clinton said in a recent interview. “One of the great gifts of faith is to let it go.”
The themes of wrongs, forgiveness and reconciliation have played out repeatedly in Mrs. Clinton’s life, as she has endured the ordeal of her husband’s infidelity, engaged in countless political battles and shared a deep, mutual distrust with adversaries.
Her Methodist faith, Mrs. Clinton says, has guided her as she sought to repair her marriage, forgiven some critics who once vilified her and struggled in the bare-knuckles world of politics to fulfill the biblical commandment to love thy neighbor.

Barf Alert please.
What? Is she praying to Al Gore, the High Priest of the Global Warming Cult?
Make that TWO BARFS
The Devil can masquerade as an angel of light....and Hillary has that down well
Go dig up Vince Foster and ask him about hillary’s forgiveness.
Sometimes 2 and 3 times a week when Bill is feeling particularly randy..
forgiven some critics..
Oh? Is that what her bible says, "forgive some, but not all?"
..the biblical commandment to love thy neighbor.
One of the countless examples for this would be her treatment of Vince Foster.
Yep, this is one religious lady who understands and lives her Christian faith.
For Hillary and Bill, religion is just a photo op. To be periodically seen going to church, carry a Bible or praying in public are only image builders. Neither Hillary nor her husband are truly religious in any sense.
A close study of the two reveal striking parallels.
Hillary and barf is actually redundant.
Surely Hillary’s campaign appreciates all the help from you grovelling Big Media syncophants, Mr. Luo, but, if you love Hillary so much, why don’t you just marry him?
for any sinner like the Clintons to reflect on faith
is ghastly. These two are Devil enablers and welcome that effort. Fully conscience and willing to do or be whatever it takes ,including death, to get their way and direction
Long before her beliefs would be tested in the most wrenching of ways as first lady, Hillary Rodham Clinton taught an adult Sunday school class on the importance of forgiveness
I guess that’s where she learned her tolerance of Jews.
45 minute Sunday school classes aren’t that memorable.
Sounds like Bill and his memory of the nonexistant Church burnings.
Hillary would have divorced Bill a long time ago, but she needed him as a vehicle to achieve the power she craves. Anyone who believes Hillary has a Christian molecule in her body has to be an idiot.
These people are so phony it’s almost beyond belief. I can still remember Bill telling reporters that he forgave those who had persecuted him in the Lewinsky affair. Here was a guy who turned the Oval Office into a brothel, committed felony perjury and obstruction of justice in the cover-up, intimidated witnesses, and sent hired thugs out to smear the investigators with false charges. Then, after all this, he acted like the victim and “magnanimously” told reporters he was willing to forgive all the wrong that had been done to him.
Ditto for Hillary. She went on national TV, defended Bill knowing full well that he was guilty, and made up all that garbage about a vast right-wing conspiracy. She’s smeared and destroyed anyone and everyone who got in her way or tried to bring her to justice. Then she poses as a forgiving Christian willing to turn the other cheek over the alleged wrongs done to her.
Imagine a wanton female criminal terrorizing a community with lawlessness and hate. When she’s finally brought to justice, she turns to a New York Times reporter with a sad expression on her face, and as she clutches a Bible, says she’s willing to forgive the arresting officers, the jury who convicted her, and the citizens who turned her in. The Times reporter writes a story on how wonderful this forgiving woman is, not mentioning her crimes or prior conduct at all, even though he knows full well that she’s plotting to escape and launch another crime spree even as she poses as a saint.
That’s Hillary, with the exception of the fact that she’s never been arrested since she’s always gotten away with everything.
My thoughts exactly..This article makes me want to puke. Where is the Fairness Doctrine when you need it. The NY Slimes is ramping up their free Hillary for Pres advertising machine already.
Faith that her core constituency knows full well that she’s faking this “religious” jazz to lure centrist voters.
Please, Hillary, tell the Left how Christian you are.
The Clintons are like KUDZU....they Strangle all Truth and Life out of their followers.
Can’t wait to hear her quote Scripture when a reporter asks for her favorite passage...
IF SHE BELIEVES THAT STICKING A BABY IN THE HEAD AND SUCKING OUT ITS BRAINS IS A RIGHT , SHE HAD BETTER BE PRAYING REAL HARD.
Unfortunately for us (and her, for that matter) the faith in question is Satanism.
I thought politicians weren’t allowed to talk about faith? Wall of separation you know!
What, that’s only for Conservatives you say?
Yup. We all know she prays in lucifer's name.
Another slobbering, front-page article by the NYT in support of Saint Hillary. Fortunately, very few (and getting fewer) people read and believe the NYT “news” articles.
When she takes that false stance, everyone who knows her sidles quietly away from her.
They know her.
"Frankly, I'm fed up with politicians in Washington lecturing the rest of us about 'family values'."
Everything the Clintons are now saying should be filtered through this line.
Hillary Rodham Clinton taught an adult Sunday school class .... “One of the great gifts of faith is to let it go.” ... Her Methodist faith, Mrs. Clinton says, has guided her
It'll be this one. Isaiah 14:13-14....
You said in your heart,And then we'll finish the quote for her, by including verse 15....
"I will ascend to heaven;
I will raise my throne
above the stars of God;
I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly,
on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. [a] I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;
I will make myself like the Most High."
But you are brought down to the grave,
to the depths of the pit.
I totally agree with everything you said.
Pardon me for a moment while I blow chow.
Faith and forgiveness? Not a chance in hell. Revenge and greed are her driving forces. She only has faith the American voters have short memories.
For the goods on this evil woman, I highly recommend Barbara Olson’s book, “Hell to Pay”.
This soulless beast holds no Gods before herself. The Lord will not be mocked.
But Hillary's "faith" is now an asset?
Is this a religious market test on behalf of the Clinton campaign?
Whatever it is, it's nauseating.
Hillary would be an embarrasment to the Devil. She doesn't even come close to being an "angel of light".
I personally think the comparison of the gruesome twosome to the Bible’s Ahab and Jezebel is particularly fitting.
Says it all.
Hillary Rodham Clinton said “preying family”. The press just mis-spelled it.
