SCRANTON, Pennsylvania (CNN) – After a weekend spent making direct appeals to gun owners and church goers, Hillary Clinton said Sunday a query about the last time she fired a gun or attended church services "is not a relevant question in this debate” over Barack Obama’s recent comments on small town Americans.

“We can answer that some other time,” Clinton said at a press conference held in a working class neighborhood here. “This is about what people feel is being said about them. I went to church on Easter. I mean, so?”

anyone think hillary is overplaying her hand on this one?

[kaehurowing]

Don’t you just love phony Christian politicians?

[NonValueAdded]

Any hand she plays is overplayed, but yeah.

[TennesseeProfessor]

Absolutely. She’s bitter about her falling fortunes and because she’s bitter, she clings to any mishap Obama makes ....

[Paladin2]

Don’t you just love phony Christian Chinese funded politicians?

[Biblebelter]

The last time she fired a gun may not be relevant to her, but it is sure as hell relevant to Vince Foster.

Hillary, we remember you & Susan & Rosie & Sarah and everyone, on the mall for the “million” mom march. You and Slick have been grabbing guns for years, and maligning all gun owners in the process. This finger in the wind won’t work. Just because Hateful Obama decided to insult gun owners and religion people, doesn’t mean you’re not guilty. Yes, she’s shooting herself in the foot.

[bmwcyle]

Hillary does know a gun she wouldn’t like to collect from us.

"I went to church on Easter. I mean, so?”

I mean, so? Are you kidding me? This is how a candidate for President speaks? Why didn't she just say, "Bite me!"

"Hillary Clinton said Sunday a query about the last time she fired a gun or attended church services "is not a relevant question in this debate” over Barack Obama’s recent comments on small town Americans"

Actually Hil-liar-ly, it's quite relevent. You made it relevent by fabricating more lies about it and pushing the issue. The very fact that you won't expound on it is proof positive that you will say anything to get political mileage out of it. However, when pressed to back up your statements, you dodge the question, saying it's discussion at a later time. Pathetic.

Either of those questions RELEVEANT for a debate you Flipping Bi-ach!!

You are not the one to determine what is relevant or not relevant! The voters are (or should be).

[John Jorsett]

I doubt that anyone has let her hold a gun since she married Bill.

F**k this 3AM crap, I'll answer a threat to our country when I wake up. D@mn, this campaigning is a lot of work.

Wake me up when it's over.

[mware]

cd, I heard that question being asked during real time.

The reporters were trying to cover for Obama.

They were attempting to change the subject to her.

She redirected the question.

Even Krauthammer said she was good, very good at the Q&A.

[infantrywhooah]

"Why didn't she just say, "Bite me!"

She did, she just used different words. The sentiment was the same.

[UCANSEE2]

I hope she keeps overplaying.

Keep upping the bid, go all in to the pot.

You go! Hillary.

Hillary apparently realizes that the Democrat party and it's candidates are out of touch with the majority of Americans but she doesn't seem to realize that this perception applies to her as well as Obama.

Her dismissive attitude when asked "when did you last attend church?" simply amplifies the reality that the leftist-heavy Democrat party is comprised of elitist snobs who haven't a clue as to how most Americans live their lives and what matters to them.... and Americans are beginning to notice.

No matter how many dirty tricks the Democrats pull on the McCain campaign or how many 'October surprises' they unleash, I cannot believe the U.S. electorate will put these people in the White House this November. However, we elected Bill Clinton, twice, so I suppose anything is possible.

We get the government we deserve but no one deserves this bunch of Marxist elitists. God help this nation if these people ever gain presidential power.

[Red Boots]

Who is she to decide the relevance of the question ? Really, the asker gets to decide that.

[randita]

I went to church on Easter.

Easter of which year. Wanna bet this is a lie, as well. Buckhead, get to work.
