Hillary Cheered Broadway's Book of Mormon, Condemns Innocence of Muslims
By Jack Cashill
September 17, 2012

On Thursday of last week, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called the video project Innocence of Muslims, the one that may or may not have provoked riots worldwide, "disgusting and reprehensible."

**SNIP**

Apparently, Secretary Clinton has flexible standards. The Associated Press reported soon after The Book of Mormon's opening that "[t]he show has been greeted not by protests but rhapsodic reviews and standing ovations from crowds that have included celebrities as diverse as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, actor Jack Nicholson and composer Stephen Sondheim." Indeed, the show has been the biggest hit on Broadway these past two seasons, winning nine Tony Awards along the way.

True, when the show premiered in 2011, the media were shocked. NPR accurately called it "blasphemous." The Washington Post called it "acidic." The New York Times called it "more foul-mouthed than David Mamet on a blue streak."

I question the use of the word “standards” in context to anything Clinton.

Hillary Clinton, like most Democrats tries to find humanity in the most vile of humans! Hillary is the type of person who would say Jeffery Dahmer was kind because he drugged his victims before he ate them!

Beastwoman doesn't have standards -- she proved that repeatedly in the 90's.

What she has is opportunities and bank balances.

If they have dark skin and/or they’re poor, liberals will defend them to their dying breath. If they’re white and well-off, liberals will say they’re the scum of the earth every time. Liberals believe the only way to be a “good” person is to defend dark-skinned, poor people and attack white, rich people.

This is nothing new, look at all the anti Christian movies, that have been made. The Endowment for the Arts have paid for some of the most disgusting and degrading attacks on religion, and defended them as freedom of speech. I don’t know if Hillary ever saw the play but I do know she was in the Senate which funds the Endowments. Not that it makes the play any less offensive but at least it was not produced with tax payer money. SOS Clinton has no standards.

After Passion of the Christ made Mel a bunch of money, a good many Hollywood types decided the way to make a bunch for themselves was to produce "Christian" movies and tap into the same audience.

So they made a number of movies making fun of Christians. Oddly enough, they didn't do as well at the box office as Mel did. LOL
