Church Going Gun Owner

That's how Hillary has been trying to portray herself to Pennsylvania voters. Obviously, she must think the voters there are beyond moronic if she expects them to believe that snake oil pitch. Meanwhile, when asked when the last time she attended church and/or fired a gun, here's Hillary's response, while saying that information was "not relevant." Here's the CNN quote:


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?”

My advice is do NOT expect an answer to this question any time soon - if ever. My other reaction is that while watching the "debate" last night, I seriously thought I would vomit listening to Hillary endlessly saying the words "faith" and "grace." The woman is utterly disingenuous and clearly will say whatever she thinks the particular audience in front of her wants to hear. Someone please get me some Malox or Mylanta!!


Meanwhile, Obama called Hillary out on her ridiculous depiction of herself. I love this quote:


"She is running around talking about how this is an insult to sportsmen, how she values the Second Amendment. She's talking like she's Annie Oakley,'' Obama said, invoking the famed female sharpshooter immortalized in the musical "Anne Get Your Gun.'' Obama continued, saying "Hillary Clinton is out there like she's on the duck blind every Sunday. She's packing a six-shooter. Come on, she knows better. That's some politics being played by Hillary Clinton.''
