Clinton Portrays Herself as a Pro-Gun Churchgoer
New York Times ^ | 4/12/2008 | Julie Bosman

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.

“We don’t get bogged down and looking back – we’re always looking forward,” she said, as heavy applause nearly drowned out her words. “Whatever obstacle we see, we get over it. Whatever challenge we have, we meet it. We’re the problem-solvers, we’re the innovators, we’re the people who make the better future.”

For the third time since Mr. Obama’s remarks were made public Friday night, Mrs. Clinton criticized him at length, saying his comments seemed “kind of elitist and out of touch.”

“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.”

"Michael Moore Portrays Himself as a Pro-Truth Olympic Athlete"

No. He's the Nair poster-boy. Along with his twin, Rosie O'Donnell.

Killed her a bar, when she was only three....

And can someone tell me how a kid with a bb gun makes her more presidential.

So, what's the lesson here...Kids should be taught to shoot when they are young??

Mrs. Bill Clinton, trying to be all things to all people.
To me though she still is a big pile of pooh.

Operation Chaos is working great!!!

This is so hilarious, Hitlery as the pro-gun bible thumping candidate. I don’t know when spring Turkey season starts in Indiana, but here in Pa it starts on April 26, just after the primary. Hopefully it starts at similar times in other states. I would love for her to be out in Indiana or North Carolina shooting a gobbler!! Use a 10 guage Hitlery!! Just like the one pappy had!!

While leaving Church under sniper fire on her way to an NRA meeting, the junior Senator from New York paused briefly to bitch slap the junior Senator from Illinois.

The long-standing, and long since un-funny, American telly (alleged) comedy programme, ''Saturday Night Live''.

When John Belushi was a member of the cast it was still funny. The cast over indulged in cocaine but it was still funny.

After John Belushi died they still over indulged in cocaine but they stopped being funny.

At least that's my take.

Puhleeze the only time I saw either Bill or Hiliary with a bible and exiting a church was during the Monica sex capade; a mere transparent prop that the media didn’t deign to comment on.
